About the Hotel
Rooms with Mountain Views
Hakone Kowakien Hotel features 150 rooms across seven floors, designed in a minimal, spacious style reminiscent of Japanese ryokan inns. Rooms include tatami mat flooring, low tables and chairs, comfortable beds with white duvets, air conditioning, a safe deposit box, an electric kettle, a carpeted floor, and a flat-screen TV. Some rooms have a seating area, and each includes a private ceramic Japanese-style hot spring bath on the balcony. Select rooms offer views of Tonomine, Myojogatake, and Mount Asama.
Dining Japanese Style
Guests can dine at GrandVert, one of the hotel's dining establishments, which include 5 restaurants and a coffee shop/café. The Hakone restaurant serves a seasonal, multi-course, Japanese-style meal served in artful displays on ceramics and lacquerware. A buffet breakfast is available. The lounge offers a signature Kozue cocktail, a blend of umeshu, whiskey, and blue curacao. There is also an on-site bar and lounge.
Leisure and Wellness
Hakone Hotel Kowakien offers a seasonal outdoor swimming pool, a garden, a shared lounge, a spa lounge, and a sauna. Guests can access two communal onsen hot spring baths with mountain views and mineral-rich waters. An electric button activates 15 minutes of onsen water piped directly into the bath. Other activities include hiking and early morning yoga on a stone platform in the garden, with the surrounding forest waterfalls providing a meditative backdrop. Karaoke rooms are available at Bar Gardenia. Guests can also indulge in exclusive spa treatments utilizing Japanese products by brands such as Shiseido.
