WELCOME TO GORAKADAN | Hakone Onsen Hotel (Ryokan) in Japan
Thank you for visiting
Gora Kadan, the premier
Ryokan in the Hakone.
We look forward to welcoming you.
Introduction
Gora Kadan is located in the heart of the Fuji-Hakone National Park, one of the top tourist destinations in Japan. Just a one hour trip from Tokyo, the area has not only good access, but also boast many mineral rich hot springs, called “ONSEN”. These springs are wildly popular with both young and old, for their relaxation and healing qualities.
The area is also rich in history, as the main highway connecting Tokyo and Kyoto, the “TOKAIDO”, weaved its way through the mountains and valleys of Hakone. For centuries, many travelers have been enthralled by the natural beauty of the surroundings and the different perspective each season provides.
About GORAKADAN
Gora Kadan is not a hotel, but instead, a traditional Japanese Ryokan. Located on the grounds of the former summer villa of a member of the Imperial family, the building and facilities have earned high praise for its design, being in harmony with the nearby mountains, blending Japanese tradition along with modern design elements.
Since 1981, Gora Kadan has been a member of Relais&Chateaux, the French association synonymous with first class standards among the most demanding and well travelled jetsetter. We are honored to host guests from all over the world, and in 2002, were awarded the coveted Welcome Trophy by Relais&Chateaux, in recognition of high customer satisfaction and high standards of service.
Natural hot springs
Gora Kadan has two wells from which mineral rich, hot spring water flows and feeds the open-air baths. The minerals contained in the spring water are regarded as having many healthy qualities promoting general good health, and also, smooth, soft skin.
Highly recommended is having a massage from the wide selection offered, preceded by a good, long soak in the onsen spa to first condition the skin.
CUISINE
Using only the choicest, seasonal ingredients from all over Japan, our chefs prepare for your delight, “KAISEKI CUISINE”. “KAISEKI” finds its origins in the ceremonies and customs of the traditional tea ceremony, in which the basic philosophy is that every single moment when people meet is a unique and one time only event that can never be repeated.
Extreme care is taken to ensure that every dish served is both aesthetically and palate pleasing, and the entire experience one worth remembering.
