We appreciated having breakfast and evening meal as part of our stay. Bus stop directly outside main entrance made commute to other locations easier especially when combined with Hakone free pass. The hotel has a shuttle bus which provides transport to Gora Railway station and the Cable car. We enjoyed walking to the Hakone Open-air Museum even though it was uphill on the return to the hotel.
