The Yamano Hotel in Hakone is an exquisite inn where tradition and natural beauty are in harmony. First of all, the classical and calm atmosphere that permeates the entire hotel gives you a sense of its long history, and you can enjoy a special time away from everyday life. Each and every piece of furniture and setting in the building is elegant, making you feel as if you are in a space that would have been favored by famous people in the Showa era. The food is also exceptional, and the dinner dishes are carefully prepared using seasonal ingredients, and all of them are delicious and highly satisfying. In particular, breakfast is served in a set meal style, which has become rare recently, and you can start your day slowly in a calm atmosphere. The staff's attentive service is also comfortable, and it has an appeal that makes you want to come again and again. In addition, the hotel's proud garden changes its appearance with each season, and the roses and azaleas are especially impressive from spring to early summer. Just a stroll through the spacious garden will soothe your soul and allow you to enjoy the richness of Hakone's nature with all your senses. Surrounded by silence and beauty, the Yamano Hotel is truly worthy of being called a "hideaway for adults."

We went to see the azaleas in the large garden of the Yamano Hotel. In May, the entire area is covered with a carpet of about 3,000 azaleas of 84 varieties that have been planted since the days of Baron Iwasaki's villa. You can enjoy the contrast between Mt. Fuji and the azaleas from a spot near the entrance! By the way, there is a fee to enter the large garden of the Yamano Hotel during this season. It is located on the shores of Lake Ashi, so the lake also looks like a nice location. The rhododendrons were also in bloom, which was also beautiful. There is a small wisteria trellis, a church and many other things to see. The colorful and beautiful azaleas are soothing!

I posted a review, but my husband and I booked this hotel for two nights because we wanted to enjoy a relaxing stay. It's a historic space, and I don't mind the oldness, which I actually like. We booked breakfast and dinner, but they customized it for the two nights, so we were very satisfied with the content and quantity. It was also an adult birthday trip, but cake was an optional reservation, and the other birthday services were modest and homey, so it was just right (no need to sing loudly). We went to the observation deck, visited the Hakone Shrine next door, walked in the garden, had tea in the lounge, and enjoyed the hot springs in the morning and evening. We're definitely considering repeating our trip. Thank you to everyone at the hotel for the great service. Next time, I'd like to try the spa and massage! #FreeHongKongAirTickets #HakoneTrip
