Die 20 besten Boutique-Hotels in Shutoken (2026)

Gästebewertung: One of my absolutely favourite in Tokyo. Not the first and not the last stay for sure.

Gästebewertung: This is a boutique ryokan experience. To provide context, I think if I had sneezed and asked for them to help wipe my nose, they would have done so. There is no scale to describe the level of hospitality we experienced here. It was beyond incredible. Photos and reviews don’t do this ryokan justice. It only has 10 rooms, but even then you will feel like the only person there. Our suite was more like a spacious apartment with the classic Japanese sliding doors to separate spaces. The bathtub was perfect for two people, and the beds were so comfortable. Dinner was 10 courses, paced perfectly. Breakfast was a lot of food, more than we could eat that early in the day. The staff was so wonderful, kind, patient and helpful. A few tips - free drinks from checkin until 5. There is a stocked bar with a few beers, hot and cold tea and wine that is complimentary. I recommend one night, it’s enough to relax and reset. I would recommend this quiet quaint experience to anyone willing to travel across the world to get there. Best money well spend in a while!

Gästebewertung: We loved Yoshimatsu. The property and gardens are gorgeous; the room was extremely spacious and comfortable, and we loved our private onsen, as well as the public onsen. We also enjoyed the beautiful dinner service in our room, and the lovely and comfortable yukata.

Gästebewertung: The welcome and the kindness of the hosts were amazing. The accomodation was very thoughtfully provided for. Nori couldn’t have been more helpful with suggestions in planning our 3 fantastic days in Hakone. As we were farewelled, Nori gave us a crane made out of an Australian flag origami and a Japanese handkerchief.
