We stayed here for two nights in one of the small double pods (up the ladder). It was a bigger space than we expected and quite comfortable. The walls are understandably thin, so be prepared to hear people in the rooms around and below you. There are earplugs provided, which is helpful. The staff were all lovely and we really enjoyed our dinner around the fire! We also walked to a nearby onsen and found the location to be very convenient for exploring Hakone. Would definitely recommend!

Good place to stay, close to hakonetozan Chokokuno
This was my first time staying at a guest house. I am very impressed of how friendly and attentive the personnel is. They made the check in and check out very easy and recommended places to visit. Looking forward to stay again in the near future

Clean, tatami style rooms, fully equipped kitchen. Showers, toilets, and kitchen are all shared, but we never had a problem. The hearth's a great place to hang out. Staff speaks pretty good English. Convenient access to transit. Not many food options (especially at night) in the area though.

This place was beautiful! The whole property was quite pleasing to look at. Our room was a bit small for the price was affordable compared to the competitors. The one problem we had was being woken up by others moving around the hostel. Because the place was made of wood there was lots of creaking. The floors also seemed thin because it sounded like someone was slamming themselves against the floor every time they moved. The bathrooms were clean and they even had a communal dinner every night. The location is GREAT.

Cosy and authentic guesthouse
We stayed at Irori for just one night and it's the kind of place that makes you think you might want to stay for a bit longer. We loved everything from the casual, tasteful and authentic interior and the comfy bed to cheerful, friendly and super helpful staff. We stayed in a deluxe room which was pretty small but in the end it was absolutely fine for our personal needs and the price we've paid. We had dinner served in the living/chill room - a japanese style fish barbecue with mushrooms and canned chicken. For £10 per head you can't ask for more, especially considering how cosy everything went with everyone sitting around the grills and chatting over a saké. All in all it was wonderful and we totally recommend it if you're in for something unfussy and casual and want to make a few friends along the way. PS Don't believe the pillow comments in other reviews, it's BS. They are absolutely fine. Even more so, they're better than the ones in some fancier Tokyo hotels we've stayed before.

Stayed in a private room which was large and comfortable. Staff are very friendly and facilities are great. Location is ideal between West Hakone and East Hakone.

ゲストハウスなので、いろいろ共同になります。施設は広く、スタッフも丁寧でした。ただ、施設内の駐車場は限りがあって停められなかった。近くのコインパーキングまで歩いて15分以上あるし、まわりにコンビニもないのでそこが不便かな。

正月駅伝観戦時、素泊まりに利用。宿前に無料駐車場が有り便利。駅伝見物の宮ノ下まで300m。ローテーションの若い男性女性スタッフは親切で居心地が良かった。翌朝9時にチェックアウト後に歩いて1分の彫刻の森の森美術館に14時まで遊びに行ったが、宿の駐車場に車を無料で止めさせてくれ助かった。

良いと思います
家族3人で宿泊させていただきました 彫刻の森美術館のバス停の目の前なので、バス移動の方には便利だと思います ユネッサンへは徒歩でも行けます(ただし、往路は上り坂です) スタッフさんは丁寧に館内を案内して下さったり、対応が良く、気持ち良く利用させていただけました 古民家をリノベーションされたとのことで、足跡や隣の部屋や廊下からの声は響きます また、トイレ、シャワー室、洗面所は共同です

スタッフさんは男性2人でしたが、 お2人ともとても親切でコミュニケーションを積極的にとってくださり、とても良い時間を過ごせました! 今回は急遽行ったので、次回は囲炉裏を囲んで食べるディナーも是非体験してみたいと思います。 数日泊まってワーケーションなども出来そうだなと思える居心地の良さでした。 本当にありがとうございました:)
