Hakone is located along Tokaido, the historic roads of the Edo period (1603-1868) connecting Edo (modern-day Tokyo) and Kyoto, and was developed as “shukubamachi”, a town offering food and accommodation to travellers. Not to mention the spectacular view of nearby Mt. Fuji, there are numerous tourist spots in this area, such as Owakudani volcanic valley and beautiful Ashinoko lake. Its breathtaking landscape can be seen in one of Hiroshige’s, the famous Japanese ukiyo-e artist, masterpieces. And most of all, a large number of well-established hot springs are the major tourist attraction in Hakone.
GORA HANAOUGI is located at the most popular area in Hakone and surrounded by beautiful natural landscape. You can relax in comfort at open-air hot spring bath in your room looking at the magnificent mountains and beautiful sky. Easily accessible, 1-2 hours in distance from Tokyo, you can experience traditional Japanese beauty and hospitality that will make your stay truly unforgettable.
