Gôra Kadan

Minimalist interior design in Gôra Kadan’s rooms and suites is in keeping with the traditions of rural Japanese-style, where carefully placed wooden furnishings and plenty of light continue the calming theme which is found elsewhere throughout the property’s manicured grounds. While the indoor swimming pool and spa are both an undoubted delight, it is - to a degree - on the outside where things really come into their own, as you are not only situated amidst the natural splendour of Hakone National Park, but will be treated to picture-perfect gardens and enchanting outdoor patios. From the moss-covered rocks to centuries-old trees, private hot springs and perfectly symmetrical rock formations, the intentional serenity which this guesthouse’s once-royal residence would have demanded is still there today. Dining is also something to behold, as endless tasting plates and inventive flavour fusions are matched only by their impressively artistic presentation on arrival!
