Hakone Pax Yoshino receives generally positive feedback, particularly for its traditional ryokan atmosphere and riverside location. Guests frequently praise the onsen facilities, especially the outdoor public bath and the private stone baths. The staff are noted for being exceptionally helpful and accommodating, with several reviewers highlighting the high quality of the multi-course dinners, including excellent vegetarian options. However, some visitors mention that the hotel feels somewhat outdated, with older Western-style rooms and occasional maintenance issues like mold in wooden room baths. Connectivity can be a challenge, as Wi-Fi is often limited to the lobby area. Despite these points, many travelers consider it a great value compared to other hotels in the Hakone area.
