We incorporate beauty interweaving Japanese traditions with lavish and abundant nature surrounding the facility such as the bird singing, whistling of the winds through the tree groves,
and the Hakone mountain range featuring Daimonji-yaki (Mountain Bonfire) far in the distance to let you feel the ions in your body
and return to your original self while enjoying the subtle aroma of sandalwood throughout the resort.
This is the gentle and luxurious space we have created for our guests.
Sandalwood is a fragrant tree which has captivated people around the world since ancient times with its elegant aroma.
It is used in many perfumes, and its natural benefits include calming the mind,
increasing immunity, antibacterial purification, and relieving bodily pains.
Our desire is to maintain the spirit of the benefits of sandalwood while providing sincere hospitality creating a resort where you can relax almost hearing the aroma of the sandalwood.
The concept of our rooms is to provide our guests with a space surrounded by nature based around tasteful Japanese furnishings.
You will become one with the whispering of the tree leaves, the calling of the wild birds,
the chirping of the insects, and the light and shadows cast by the various deciduous trees.
We provide private hot spring water blessed with good source quality to all the open-air baths in our rooms.

At the start of the 1900s, Takashi Masuda and Kaoru Inoue,
key figures in Japan's economic history and culture at the time, received backing to expand the active Hakone mountain railway,
causing Gora to develop into a luxury health resort of holiday villas.
Gora hot springs, one of the 17 hot springs of Hakone, is known as a hyperthermal hot spring location which came to be known around the world along
with the development of Japan in the late Meiji era.
The private source waters of Byakudan are prominent among these which are golden in color.
The Gora hot spring is mildly alkaline sodium chloride, known for making one’s skin smooth.
It is said to be effective at treating muscle and joint pain,
contusion, sprains, sensitivity to cold, chronic women's ailments, chronic digestive ailments, and more.
Our natural hot spring temperature is 88 degrees,
and the fact that it is a high temperature and high volume private source at 55ℓ per minute means
we can provide the freshest natural hot spring water without any circulation process.
You can fully relax your mind and body in our open-air baths with views of the various deciduous trees
in our large public baths luxuriously decorated with rare natural stones, Izu stones.
