The exterior of the Ryokan was under construction and was completely covered in scaffolding. When checking in there was construction noise which really disrupted the pleasantness of staying here. I was not informed of the construction. One of the onsens was also closed! The Ryokan is nice but the construction and closures really affected my enjoyment of my stay

Excellent location and views. Property was under construction which was unfortunate as that was a big draw to staying at the ryokan. There was a miscommunication or misunderstanding that resulted in an approximately $25 late check out time after we removed our bags from the room 30 minutes after the apparent check out time which after a only a one night stay left a bad last impression.

The stay was lovely made special by the meal on 1st night , but had a terrible experience. Despite agreeing the price through hotels.com the hotel inisisted I pay another persons worth of costs on arrival or leave (not poss with a smal child after 10 hours travelling and nothing locally available). Their website is also misleading

3-Star hotel but you pay closer to a 5-star price. Be mindful that despite the price point, this is still 3-star hotel. The pros are the gorgeous rooms (we stayed in the Traditional Japanese corner room in the main building), the friendly staff, and the high quality menu ingredients. The hotel does feel a bit dated, but depending on your expectations from a Ryokan from the late 19th century, this is not a major concern. It is also currently undergoing renovations, which seem to be done intentionally to retain as much of the old charm as possible. The staff were very kind and genuine. Limited English and some confusion during check-in (given the wrong room) but overall we were very pleased with the staff. Unclear if Expedia is the reason we were originally given the wrong room or of this was the fault of the property, but the staff made it right promptly, which was a huge relief for us. Maybe call ahead to confirm you’re getting the room pictured? The private onsen was pleasant.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 – A Truly Unforgettable Ryokan Experience Our stay at Hakone Kowakien Mikawaya Ryokan was absolutely wonderful from start to finish. The atmosphere perfectly captured the charm of a traditional Japanese inn — peaceful, elegant, and deeply relaxing. The kaiseki dinner and Japanese breakfast were both incredible — beautifully presented, full of flavor, and a true highlight of our trip. Each dish felt thoughtfully prepared with seasonal ingredients and artistic presentation. We enjoyed both the private onsen and the public baths, which were immaculate and soothing with the surrounding nature views. The private bath experience was especially special — serene, quiet, and rejuvenating after a long day of exploring Hakone. The staff were kind, attentive, and made us feel truly welcome. Every detail, from the check-in to the evening yukata service, reflected genuine hospitality and care. If you’re looking for an authentic ryokan stay that combines comfort, tradition, and incredible cuisine, Hakone Kowakien Mikawaya Ryokan is perfect. We can’t recommend it enough — it’s an experience we’ll always remember.
