Yugawara, Kanagawa Prefecture hotel rooms at the Independent

"Musashino Bekkan is a truly amazing place! As soon as you walk in the front door, you know you’re going to have an authentic, Japanese experience. The lobby and rooms were very clean and comfortable. The staff was very friendly and their shuttle was very convenient. If you are at the train station, they offer to pick you up whenever you are ready to return to your room. Our dinner and service was amazing. The food presentation was spectacular! The areas around the property allows for scenic, relaxing walks. The baths were also very clean and comfortable. I would strongly recommend Musashino Bekkan if you are staying in Hakone. "

"Wonderful, hot tub and room! Only question is why are they so stingy with towels? Only one towel per guest a day for both the hot tub and bath. "

"The breakfast was spectacular. The dinner was amazing. "

"All good, comfortable, clean and modern. Breakfast is a simple choice, choice of sandwich and a hot drink."

"Beautiful lobby with breath taking views of Lake Ashi, with modern amenities and plenty of Japanese touche. Free shuttle bus to Odarwa station and the fact Hakone ropeway and Pirate ship is only 5mins walk away. There’s coffee in the lobby and ice tea to settle in when you arrive. The onsen is great for those who dare to bath naked or you can opt for private onsen for a fee. Live the fact they had 2 electric massage chairs just outside the baths to wind down. Also you can book for massage at their onsite facility. Breakfast and dinner buffet was great - the only down side was it was repeated so could get a little boring if you stayed more than 2 nights. Overall, highly recommend this place. Came with my two kids who were under 10."

"Clean place we enjoyed our stay. Reception were really helpful and friendly"

"Really nice property but not close to any restaurant or 7-11 without taking an Uber. Terraces, onsen, shower and full kitchen are lovely. Would be nice to have a screen across the 2nd bedroom for privacy. Also a way to turn off the auto light in the foyer. Provided pajamas are so soft and comfortable!"

"Impeccable service. The staff truly goes above and beyond to make your stay amazing! I would definitely stay here again in the future. "
