Design Reflecting the Essence of Hakone

Hotel Indigo Hakone Gora, the first property in Japan for the lifestyle boutique hotel brand "Hotel Indigo," is opening.
Hotel Indigo is operated by InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG®). With 112 hotels primarily in Europe and North America, the brand is committed to offering contemporary designs that encapsulate the spirit of each city and personalized services that spark curiosity.
Each hotel possesses a "Neighborhood Story," proposing stimulating stays that allow guests to fully experience the local area.
The hotel's interiors, music, menus, and amenities are all infused with discoveries of local culture, cuisine, regional design, and hidden trends, born from the hotel's connection with the community.
Guests can enjoy truly deep, local experiences unique to the area.
Upon entering Hotel Indigo Hakone Gora, guests are greeted by a space where contemporary style and Japanese tradition harmoniously blend.
An all-day dining restaurant themed around "fire," a bar lounge inspired by Hakone's clear streams and themed around "water," and cuisine drawing inspiration from local Hakone ingredients await guests.
The hotel also boasts comprehensive facilities, including spa treatments and a fitness center. Guests can relax in a stylish, communal hot spring bath (requiring swimwear) and warm both body and soul with mineral-rich onsen healing.
There are a total of 98 guest rooms, including four suites. Notably, all rooms feature a Japanese-style bath with natural hot spring water. Rooms with a river view overlooking the Hayakawa River (four types, 80 rooms) offer a tranquil atmosphere where guests can indulge in a luxurious experience in their private open-air baths.
