Overview

Hakone Airu Hotel draws inspiration from the wilderness of Hakone. The hotel's symbol, a circle representing harmony, is inspired by nature's elements like flowers, birds, water, mountains, grass, and the moon. Located just a 2-minute drive or a 10-minute walk from Hakone Yumoto Station, you'll find it easy to arrive at this peaceful retreat. You can walk to a few different nearby eateries, but having a car or arranging transport will help you explore sites like Lake Ashi, the Hakone Open-Air Museum, and hiking trails, all within a 30-minute drive. 

Each room at Hakone Airu is spacious and provides an attached open-air bath for a unique relaxation experience. The rooms' decor reflects a sophisticated Japanese ambience that enhances comfort and relaxation. All rooms have air-conditioning, a TV, a minibar, and a balcony offering mountain views. For an added touch of luxury, opt for an upgraded room—choices include the Deluxe or Superior Room set on the upper floors, both featuring an open-air bath with a mountain view.

Hakone Airu lets you unwind in the hotel's hot spring bath, sourced from Hakone Yumoto. You can also treat yourself to a moment of luxury at the beauty salon, offering a menu tailored to each guest's condition. The hotel also features a unique Aquarium Bar, where you can enjoy a drink beside a magnificent wall-to-wall aquarium filled with colorful tropical fish. When hunger strikes, the hotel's restaurant serves rich seasonal flavors using fresh, local ingredients. Enjoy a Western or Asian breakfast in the morning, and savor a Japanese kaiseki multicourse meal for dinner.

The hotel facilities are beautiful, and the dinner and breakfast were amazing. However, it was very slow to check in and check out. We had limited time in Hakone, and a significant portion of the time was spent waiting for service support. This hotel has a lot of potential. Read more

It's an authentic traditional hotel, which means sleeping on the floor and floor seating. Therefore, it may not be easy for anyone with physical needs.
