Mitsui Fudosan Co., Ltd., in collaboration with Mitsui Fudosan Resort Management Co., Ltd., plans to open a new luxury hotel named HOTEL THE MITSUI HAKONE in Hakone, Japan, by 2026. Located within the Fuji-Hakone-Izu National Park, the hotel will feature 126 rooms and a thermal spring facility on a 33-acre property in Hakone’s popular hot spring resort area.
This project is the latest under the luxury hotel brand HOTEL THE MITSUI, following the success of HOTEL THE MITSUI KYOTO, which opened in 2020. The new hotel embraces the brand’s “Embracing Japan’s Beauty” concept, focusing on unique hospitality and facilities that celebrate local nature, history, and aesthetics.
Hakone, a prominent destination known for its hot springs, museums, and views of Mt. Fuji, will provide a scenic backdrop for the hotel. The hotel’s location in Kowakudani offers high-saline hot springs, which will be utilized in the thermal spring facilities and guest rooms for an immersive hot spring experience.
HOTEL THE MITSUI HAKONE collaborates with prominent designers like Yabu Pushelberg to create a refined space that marries traditional Japanese beauty with modern luxury. The property, enveloped by a lush forest, offers guests a sensory experience of the surrounding nature. Large guest rooms and dining options featuring seasonal cuisine provide views of the surrounding greenery.
Mitsui Fudosan Resort Management Co., Ltd., will manage the hotel, partnering with Marriott International’s Luxury Collection to attract a broad clientele from Japan and abroad. Construction is scheduled to begin in July 2024 with an anticipated opening in 2026.
