This is a great traditional style inn. Our room was comfortable and the food was incredible. We stayed 2 nights and both nights itwas the Kaiseki style meal. Mainly fish with one meat course. The quality was excellent. Breakfast was a very good, Japanese style meal. We also took advantage of the private onsen, which could be reserved at the reception.

This was absolutely a wonderful experience. The staff were so courteous and friendly. The food was delicious. The onsen was a true delight. The room was extremely clean. As an American from the states, this was my first stay at a ryokan and the staff explained everything very well (there’s an informative pamphlet provided to you in your room). It’s super easy to get to once you get off the train in Gora (just take a right once you leave the station and go under the tunnel and the place will be up the street on the right). I so enjoyed this first time ryokan experience. I would definitely return to this establishment if I make it out to Hakone again!

If you're looking for a more traditional stay with hot spring and Japanese style breakfast and dinner, Gorankan would be your choice. Staff are all very friendly and the location is like 3 mins walking distance to the cable car Station. Overall a very pleasant stay. Just be prepared the check-in time is strictly 3pm. Before that you can't find anyone at the reception. We had to carry our bags through some steps crossing the tunnel twice as the door was closed and no one was there at the reception.
