Ten-yu is a gorgeous hotel to stay at. The rooms are immaculate, the mountain views are incredible with some of the most beautiful sunrises I’ve ever seen, the food was pretty good, and the onsens were amazing. Getting around to lake ashi or Hakone was extremely easy also using public bus system which stops right in front of the hotel

Yuh-Shin, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

After spending a busy couple of days in Tokyo it was great just spending a day here. It really helped us relax and reset. Although isolated the beauty of nature is gorgeous and there are activities to do. It was great that the bus stop was near by as myself and my friend only brought carry on bags. From the moment we arrived to our departure the staff were really friendly. I would com back to this location in the future.
