Karino Hotels, Minamiashigara

"Wonderful stay, friendly staff"

"Good hotel near Gora - you can take shuttle or walk 15” up some steep sets of stairs if you are up for some exercise; most common areas look newly updated in last several years; nice private Onsrn on room balcony was used a lot!"

"The room was clean and the staff were hospitable. The private and public onsen were nice. If you have a tattoo, they provide you with the cover up sticker so let them know"

"The staff were lovely and the setting is so peaceful. Book a lake view room. We did and it was so worth it as we could see Mt. Fuji from our room."

"Great room and a beautiful resort! The buffet breakfast and dinner get repetitive after the first day, so two nights in Hakone feels just right. The highlights were the yukata and the onsen—super relaxing. The public onsen, in particular, was fantastic!"

"Overall the room was clean and roomy. Great view of the lake and Mt Fuji. The outdoor onsen "

"The Ajisai onsen Ryokan exceeded our expectations. The onsen is great especially since it is private . The most unforgettable experience we had was the dinner. The presentation of kaiseki course was simple and yet very entertaining. The staff were so great of course."

"The service, amenities and food were incredible. The garden terrace was absolutely stunning"
