  • Fujiya Hotel
  • Hakone Onsen Can you recommend a hot spring inn with English support for foreigners?

I'm going to take a foreign friend to Hakone Onsen, but I have to leave in the middle of the trip. I'd like to know a good hot spring inn with English-speaking staff.

Fujiya Hotel

359 Miyanoshita

  • This is a hotel in Hakone that has been welcoming foreign guests for a long time.

  • We recommend the Fujiya Hotel in Miyanoshita. The main building, built in Japan's Meiji era (1891), was made to welcome guests from overseas, and is a classic hotel where Helen Keller, Charlie Chaplin, John Lennon and Yoko Ono have all stayed. The building, which combines Japanese and Western styles, is like a museum, and is a wonderful hotel that you will never find anywhere else. They have had many guests from overseas for a long time, so they are used to dealing with them. If you want to experience a Japanese atmosphere, we recommend staying at Hana Goten.

  • It was like staying in a museum!

  • I've only stayed at Fujiya Hotel once, but all the buildings were so beautiful that it felt like I was staying in a museum. I enjoyed my stay by strolling through the Japanese garden and looking around the area displaying the hotel's historical materials. It's amazing that Charlie Chaplin and Helen Keller stayed here too. During your stay, be sure to try the traditional Fujiya Hotel flavor, "Beef Curry," at Restaurant Cascade. They also cater for vegan meals, so please ask if you would like one.
