Loved the room, very spacious. We had a little balcony. Refa blow dryer was a great surprise. Also, drinks in the fridge we're free. Sauna was great as well. Views of Mt. Fuji were unbeatable. The only downside is the food. We dined at the Japanese restaurant and we didn't enjoy the food for the price. We dined at the buffet and felt the same. Hakone is a small town and most of the restaurants close around 3pm so you rely on your hotel for dinner. Which is a shame because we loved everything else.

A little disappointed with our stay, the staff were lovely we went to the lakeside grill after booking a table, for a buffet it was expensive and the food was subpar and not as advertised on the video signs. As the weather wasn’t favourable we decided to leave early and didn’t even stay for breakfast. There is a lot of potential for improvement it needs reinvestment and an update it’s in a wonderful place but needs to match that with amenities.

Excellent stay at The Prince. The hotel has little extra touches that make this a luxurious stay. The onsen is lovely with a great range of toiletries and The Lakeside Grill serves a delicious buffet dinner. Due to the location we opted against the Hakone loop with tons of tourists instead we did the boat cruise and ropeway from right next to the hotel. We also did the forest walk to the shrine (take water with you). A quiet area but perfect for a break after the craziness of Tokyo. Wished we were there for longer.

The setting is absolutely beautiful, right on the lake with gorgeous views from our balcony\. I also had excellent massage-I highly recommend the spa, although unfortunately, I don’t remember the name of the massage therapist\. Downside The overall service was lacking, especially at the front desk, where agents barely spoke English, which made communication difficult\. Additionally, the hotel is in desperate need of renovation\. The room felt old and tired and could really use an update\. This hotel has the potential to be amazing if they address these issues and invest in improving the rooms and overall service\.
