Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I overall had a good experience at WPU HOTEL HAKONE. The staff were kind and helpful. Breakfast was included which was nice. The breakfast itself was a buffet style where you had to book a time slot. This wasn't too bad and if you needed to change the time between days, they would try to acommodate it. My only complaint is that for a modern stay, they should have more amenities such as a hair tools. I purposely did a short weekend trip and thought they would provide hair tools since there was also an onsen but they only had hair dryers. Unfortunately the one I got worked but the handle was broken. Small things but they should have a few irons at reception for guests to borrow. Otherwise, great stay.

Thank you for a good stay. The breakfast option at the hotel was nice since the area doesn’t have too many dining places (that’s just Hakone for you). But the location was pretty good and the hotel had everything we needed for the most part for the two nights we stayed. I would recommend to others or come back myself. Thank you.

Good Onsen

Good location, close to Gora station. And it has a very good ONSEN! Love it. But, no private toilet :( . It provides a ear plugs in the welcome package, yes, noise in night time. It is affordable for budget traveller in compare to the other hotels in the district.
