麥爾維爾箱根強羅酒店 (Merveille Hakone Gora)

숙소가 고라역 근처인데, 힐링만 하러 오기에는 아깝네요. 고라역까지 온김에 꼭 리프트타고 올라갔다오는게 좋은데, 료칸이라 그것도 아까울수있어요. 조식은 뷔페식이고 괜찮았고, 석식은 술하고 음료 많은데 식사는 좀 적은감이 있어요. 바로앞 편의점인 것도 좋고, 방에 욕실있는곳이 정말 좋았습니다.

料理が美味しくて、朝食もいつも以上にたくさん食べました。 強羅公園の前で花々を楽しめます。 強羅駅からも、急な阪道を上っていきますが10分もかからないで歩いていけます。 また、ぜひ泊まりたいと思います。

吾錯吾錯，但因為天氣太熱便沒有去浸房的溫泉，個晚餐和早餐🍳都唔錯👍🏻⋯⋯如果唔係揸車🚗就有啲吾方便了

とても綺麗でゆっくりできた。ご飯おいしく、薬膳のお茶も素敵だった。

Positives 1. Large spacious and clean room. Certainly an upgrade from the smaller Tokyo city rooms we were in. 2. The medicinal tea bar was a hit with our group and an interesting touch to the hotel. 3. The public baths (onsen) were well maintained and clean. 4. The hotel provides yukata robes that you can change into. 5. Breakfast and dinner were decent and necessary judging by the limited number of eateries in the area. There is Gora Brewery just behind the hotel and a Daily Yamazaki convenience store just 1 min walk. 6. You can get to Gora Park in 1 min. Tips to get from Gora station to hotel and vice versa 1. Walking. The steep slope is really not for the faint hearted. 2. When you get off at Gora, hop onto the Tozan line from Gora and get off at Koen Shimo (1 stop). It is covered if you buy the Hakone Free Pass. From Koen Shimo, it is a straight walk to the hotel. Much easier than climbing the slope. 3. Hotel shuttle. From Gora station exit, turn right and you will see an underpass. Go through it and this is where the shuttle picks / drops. We didn’t manage to find out how to get the shuttle from Gora station, but from the hotel - you should book the shuttle in advance as it can get full especially during check out time.

A nice hotel that falls short in a few key areas. As a foreigner, be warned — you may feel somewhat alienated, with staff treating you noticeably differently to Japanese guests. The onsen is pleasant but on the smaller side, and the sauna fits only two people at a time. Dinner was good, though the set menu leaves little room for flexibility. If you have dietary requirements and aren’t fluent in Japanese, don’t expect much accommodation. Room quality and beds were excellent. However, the staff attempted to charge us ¥3,300 for checking out just 15 minutes late — worth being very aware of the 10am checkout time. Overall a mixed experience, and one I’d hesitate to repeat

Great location. Love the outdoor onsen in our room as well as the one in the hotel. Enjoyed the kaiseki dinners and the tea sachets that we can make ourselves.

館內は清潔で清掃が行き屆いていた。オールインクルーシブの薬膳バーでは様々な茶葉やお酒が楽しめて素晴らしかった。

とても綺麗で、サービスもすごく丁寧で良くて、また泊まりたいなと思いました！！！ 特に夕食最高すぎました！

Come again since 2019, as well-known, the market pricing is higher after recent years, this time's price almost doubled. However, after the room has been refined, but not so roomy like years ago, dinner downgraded as well. Last time, the room has 2 bathtubs, one inside at restroom, another on the balcony!
