MadokanoMori

A hidden retreat in Kamigora, wrapped in the warmth of two private free-flowing springs, wood, and tatami

Kanagawa Hakone Town, Ashigarashimo District

"Madoka no Mori" is a luxury hot spring ryokan in Gora, Hakone Town, Ashigarashimo District, Kanagawa Prefecture. To let guests lavishly enjoy the Gora waters that bubble up from Hakone's highest elevations, the property owns two private spring sources, each with its own outlet on the grounds. Different springs are drawn for the in-room open-air baths and the shared large public baths, allowing guests to indulge in a luxurious hot spring tour of different water qualities without ever leaving the inn. All 20 rooms are equipped with large open-air baths with free-flowing natural hot spring water and panoramic decks, while elegant wooden furniture crafted by Hida artisans and the warm atmosphere of tatami flooring throughout the corridors and the entire building create the ultimate secluded stay.

TypeNatural Hot Spring

Flow-through

The property uses two different private springs that emerge from selected spots on the grounds. The large public bath uses a weakly alkaline spring with excellent skin-beautifying benefits, a sulfate and chloride spring that leaves the skin pleasantly moisturized after bathing. The open-air bath in the guest rooms uses a sodium chloride spring, an alkaline low-osmotic high-temperature spring, and both are offered as luxurious free-flowing natural hot spring water with no added water or circulation whatsoever. The public bath is equipped with reclining baths that let you fully savor the spring water and an open-air bath surrounded by nature, where you can enjoy an exceptional bathing experience accompanied by the murmuring streams of the forest.
