HOTELS IN HAKONE WITH KIDS

I have written about my favourite day trip to Hakone and Lake Ashi with kids ( fab Mt Fuji views too.)

But if you decide to stay, here are some of my favourite hotels to stay in Hakone with my kids.

Hands down, my most favourite is Hyatt Regency Hakone Resort and Spa.  I’ve written in detail about this hotel here. 

Hotel Indigo in Hakone is a fabulous place for families too.  Kids are given a little toiletry set and a sweet upon check-in too.  

And another hotel option is on the shores of Lake Ashi – Prince Hotel Lake Ashinoko has ( on a clear day) magical views of the lake AND Mt Fuji. This hotel also has an onsen.  The interior of the hotel is quite old – but in a charming countryside way.  They also have a shuttle to collect guests from Odawara Station, West Exit – the shuttle needs to be reserved (it’s only for hotel guests) at least 2 days in advance here. 

When booking a hotel in Japan with children, many people are confused as to why the hotel assumes they will share a bed with their children. I’ve done my best to try and answer this question here. 

If you drive to Hakone, I recommend also checking out this lovely open playground for kids.
