"Amazing hospitality. We loved the whole vibe of a ryokan hotel. Strolling around the property in kimono was very relaxing. Having private balcony onsen was also amazing! Our only issue was the quality of meat received at the Japanese grill restaurant. One day is was great. The next day, the same cuts of meat were much tougher. "

"We wish we could stay longer. Awesome service. It’s a very tranquil place."

"Amazing place with amazing staff"

"Had great views "

"Wonderful! Best meal of our trip and relaxing private onsens. Comfortable beds and strong wifi. We would definitely return. Ajisai is a ryokan or traditional Japanese inn tatami-matted rooms, futons and private onsens or natural hot springs. Upon making a reservation, the hotel sent us a detailed email with directions and advice. The managers/owners are lovely and very helpful. When you arrive, you can feel the peaceful atmosphere. Our family studio had a queen and a twin bed raised with 2 extra futons in the closet. The rooms are spacious with a private bathroom but no showers –reserve an onsen which include showers. Buy the “half board” which includes kaiseki or a multi-course dinner and your choice of Japanese or Western breakfast. The dinner was an entire experience – just as you finish a course, another one is served. Our favorite course was the cook your own beef on your own mini cooking device – it was both fun and delicious. There were 3 choices of private onsens: indoor and outdoor, indoor with sauna, or outdoor. They were a very relaxing and rejuvenating experience. You will love the serenity and overall experience of Ajisai Onsen Ryokan!"

"We were a party of eight with two seniors and two young kids and all of us enjoyed our stay. The stay was very comfortable and the seafood dinner and Japanese breakfast were both excellent. We would definitely return. Staff were great and super helpful."

"This is our second stay here at this hotel. We loved it so much last year that we had to return this year. The staff is excellent, the food at the buffet was delicious, our room was comfortable and even more so with the outdoor hot tub made it lovely. I had several shiatsu massages at the hotel wellness area with wonderful massage persons. I would highly recommend this hotel."

"A Truly Memorable and Authentic Japanese Experience Our stay at Hakone Kowakien Mikawaya Ryokan was nothing short of incredible. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by the staff, whose kindness, attentiveness, and genuine friendliness made us feel right at home. They went above and beyond to ensure our comfort and were always willing to help with anything we needed. The room was beautiful—spacious, peaceful, and perfectly in line with the traditional Japanese aesthetic we were hoping to experience. From the tatami floors to the yukata robes and the relaxing onsen, every detail was thoughtfully presented and added to the authenticity of our stay. This ryokan is a perfect blend of hospitality and tradition, and we left feeling refreshed, grateful, and already planning a return visit. Highly recommended for anyone looking to immerse themselves in Japanese culture and receive exceptional service along the way"

"This hotel has everything you need without going out too far. There is onsen ( private and public ). Breakfast and snacks are complimentary. Only downside is one of the bean pillow which is uncomfortable "
