Yoshike Ryokan is conveniently located at seven minutes on foot from Hakone-Yumoto Station, which takes
86 minutes by an express car from Shinjuku station in Tokyo. This area has a history stretching almost 1300
years as a hot spring. It is very pleasant to see a Japanese garden with an area of 33,000 square meters,
inherited from Iwasaki Zaibatsu, a financial combine. Here, you can enjoy the beautiful natural scenery that
changes every season.
Yoshiike Rykan is a modern ryokan in Kanagawa Prefecture. It offers guests friendliness and Japanese-style
hospitality.
A ryokan is a type of traditional Japanese inn that originated from the Edo period ( 1603-1868). They
typically feature tatami-matted floors, where a guest may wear a yukata, a kind of kimono.


The route how to get there from Tokyo:
(1) Get a limited express modern train from Shinjuku station, Tokyo
(2) From Tokyo station: Take Tokaidou shinkansen super-express train to Odawara; then, change a train to Hakone-Yumoto.

A Japanese garden was used in a villa of the Iwasaki family, the founder of Mitsubishi Zaibatsu.

There are six hot-spring sources, creating a total of 720 liters per one minute of hot-water springs from the
land of Yoshiike. For all baths, the over-flow methods are applied. They never re-use a hot water twice by
circulating it. A hot water is also used as a heating system of the buildings.
