About
Hananoyado Fukuya
Hananoyado Fukuya is a four-star ryokan in the Motohakone area of Hakone, a short walk from the shores of Lake Ashi. With just six rooms, the property keeps an intimate, unhurried atmosphere. Interiors follow a traditional Japanese style, and each room is equipped with comforts like air conditioning, heating, a flat-screen TV, and tea and coffee facilities. Select rooms add a lake or mountain view.
The ryokan is a short distance from the Motohakoneko bus stop, the bus station, and the boat station, making it a practical base for exploring the region. Guests can expect a warm welcome, with some mentioning a champagne greeting on arrival. The on-site experience centres on the hot spring bath and the option of a private open-air bath, along with a shared lounge and garden. Dining is a highlight: kaiseki dinners and breakfasts are served, featuring many carefully presented courses.
