Easy Travel from Tokyo to Hakone – A Relaxing Overnight Escape Just One Step Away

Looking for a peaceful getaway from Tokyo? Hakone is one of the most popular and accessible destinations for a short trip — and getting there is easier than you might think.

Hakone Yumoto Station by Romancecar
Bullet Train from Tokyo with JR Pass

You can take the scenic and comfortable Romancecar directly from Shinjuku, enjoy the speed of the Shinkansen (which is covered by the JR Pass), or hop on a highway bus for a budget-friendly and direct ride. All options offer smooth access to the beautiful nature, onsen, and cultural experiences Hakone is known for.
 

Even better, thanks to Japan’s efficient luggage delivery service, you don’t need to carry heavy bags. You can have your luggage shipped from hotel to hotel, leaving you free to travel light and enjoy your journey. This makes a one-night stay in Hakone simple and stress-free, whether you're coming from Tokyo or heading to your next destination.

With easy transportation and travel support, Hakone is the perfect overnight escape — refreshing, convenient, and rich with authentic Japanese charm.
