Yugawara Mizunokaori  

On a river in Yugawara, minutes from Yugawara Art Museum and Manyo Park. A short drive reaches Lake Ashi, Fuji-Hakone-Izu National Park, Hakone Shrine and Hakone Kowakien Yunessun — and Atami Sun Beach and Gotemba Premium Outlets are also within driving distance.

This ryokan has 27 guestrooms with refrigerators, safes and blackout drapes. Rooms come with slippers and hair dryers; TVs depend on category and rollaway beds are available on request. The property feels quietly traditional with garden and river views, daily housekeeping, an elevator and on-site guest comforts like laundry and an ATM. Front desk hours are limited (typically 8:00–20:00) and the property accepts cash only.

Soak in hot springs and stroll the garden for river and nature views. On-site perks include a vending machine, common-area TV, complimentary newspapers, free self parking, luggage storage, a massage room, karaoke and concierge services. Wake up to river murmurs and easy access to nearby parks and beaches.

Complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected. The property offers luggage storage, a safe deposit box at the front desk and free self parking.

There’s an on-site restaurant (and a bar) serving satisfying meals. Full breakfasts are available daily from 8:00–9:00 for a fee; guests on half-board must check in by 7:00 PM to receive dinner, and room-only guests should pre-book breakfast by 7:00 PM one day in advance.
