Regency Hakone Resort and Spa
Western mountain-lodge warmth fused with Japanese design sensibility. Think warm wood tones, tatami options, and a crackling fireplace — not the stark minimalism of a city hotel. Welcoming and unhurried.
Book evening cocktail happy hours (4:30–6:30 PM) at the Living Room — it's complimentary for hotel guests and a much better value than the bar later on
Why It Matters
One of very few international-brand luxury hotels operating in Hakone's onsen territory, where ryokan usually dominate. Spa IZUMI was ranked 4th best hotel spa in Japan by the Travel + Leisure Luxury Awards Asia Pacific 2025. Every room has a private balcony or sun terrace, and complimentary evening cocktails are a crowd-pleaser.
Sitting on a forested hillside in Gora, a hot-spring town inside Fuji-Hakone-Izu National Park, this is the rare international luxury hotel doing business in territory normally dominated by Japan's traditional ryokan. It's 90 minutes west of central Tokyo, close enough for a quick escape, far enough to feel genuinely removed. The hotel runs on a 'My Home in Hakone' ethos — that means an open-hearth fireplace in the Living Room lobby, yukata in every room, and complimentary evening cocktails that guests consistently call the highlight of their stay. Eighty rooms, all at least 56 sqm, all with private balconies or terraces. No skimping on size.
