Hotel Marroad Hakone

20 min uphill hike from Gora station. Or you can take cable train up hill for two stations and walk on flatland for about 8 minutes to hotel. Hotel has shuttle bus. They dropped us off on the way back. You can possibly call to pick you up at Gora station. Trip.com reservation options show you prices for one adult. It's very hard to book for 3 people to stay in one room to save money. I sent a custom request to the hotel exactly this - 3 people in one room. Trip.com charged me $270 and when I got to the hotel, they said I have to pay $300+ more for 2 more people. That was not clearly communicated to me by either Trip.com or hotel. There's a language and cultural barrier. In Japan, you pay per person - not by rooms. They scan your all passports of everyone staying - not just the person who books. With last minute notice, I had no choice but to pay more as other hotels nearby are filled up and we were very tired from 4 hours train transfers dragging our bags plus 8 minutes walk to the hotel. All in all, if trip.com room selections are not a perfect fit, I can't recommend booking this hotel. Custom messages are not recognized. Communication is lacking. You will get charged last minute without any alternatives left. For $570 a night, we could have a way better hotel in Hakone. The breakfast also wasn't memorable and you have to reserve it ahead of time. I would not come back.

Near from Gora station, having pick-up-car, friendly staffs. Good hot springs and sauna, i will be there next visiting.

酒店有點老式，但房間很大，沒有異味。開窗能看到外面的院子。早餐是套餐，有服務員給客人上餐。有室內和室外的温泉。總體來説住宿體驗很好。我們從箱根湯本把行李寄送到酒店，然後去玩，晚上回酒店行李已經放到房間了。到酒店最好坐箱根登山纜車在公園上站下車，步行幾分鐘就到了。如果在強羅站走上來的話要走好陡一段上坡路。
