This traditional Japanese-style inn and restaurant is nestled within the beautiful natural scenery of Hakone. Originally an imperial villa belonging to the Kan’in-no-miya branch, one of the four imperial families, it began operation in 1952. The modern architecture, which stands on roughly four acres of land, ceaselessly displays the beauty of the four seasons and has a spacious atmosphere that blends seamlessly with nature. In 1991, Gora Kadan became a member of the world-renowned luxury hotel and restaurant group Relais & Châteaux, after undergoing a rigorous selection process. It is highly acclaimed by guests from both Japan and overseas, as evidenced by being awarded the Welcome Trophy in 2002 for providing a high standard of customer satisfaction and service from among the 469 Relais & Châteaux member establishments (at the time) worldwide.
