Hakone Sengokuhara Prince Hotel

Twelve kilometres north of Hakone's Odawara rail hub, the Sengokuhara Prince Hotel occupies a quiet plateau where cedar forest edges the property on three sides and Mt. Fuji is visible on clear mornings from upper-floor balconies.

The hotel runs a hot spring bath and open-air onsen fed by the Sengokuhara geothermal field — a separate source from the more crowded baths at Hakone-Yumoto. A sauna, massage service, and tennis court round out the activity options without resort-scale crowds. The restaurant offers themed dinners and kids' meals, useful for families staying multiple nights.

Sengokuhara sits away from the Hakone Loop Bus's busiest stops, making a hotel shuttle the practical link to the Venetian Glass Museum and Pola Museum of Art, both within two kilometres.
