I have made reservations for 20th August 2019 for 3 people. I am a non vegetarian (but no beef due to our religious belief ) and the other 2 are pure vegetarian. I have heard and read elsewhere that if you give your food preferences or non preferences due to allergies or religious beliefs to the ryokans in advance, the food can be adjusted accordingly for you. However, we had dropped a mail to the ryokan asking for beef items to not be included in our food and also for the veg. Options, but they are saying we have a set food menu which cant be changed. They have given the menu as well which contains some beef and some non beef items. Moreover, they are saying that if we dont want the food we can remove it from the booking, but the booking is not getting changed now. One of the main reasons for our booking at a ryokan was the food. If they have a limited range for vegetarians and even for non - beef eaters the options get reduced, i am not getting the right worth of my money as compared to others. I have seen a YouTube video wherein the vlogger was vegetarian and still the food items were quite good in number and quality also (as per her). I dont know what to expect. Shall we change the booking to some other ryokan. Past visitors and ryokan staff may answer please!

Any recommendations for things to do during the day? I am not planning to visit the lake/ropeway/hells valley. I’m thinking more walking distance from Ryokan. Any walking trails etc thanks :) Also, will the garden be filled with leaves/flowering mid March?

Hi I am thinking of booking this Yoshiike Ryokan for my son & girlfriend (in their 20's). How did you get from Hakone-Yumoto station to the accommodation with suitcase? Also, do they have non segregated bath or any private hot pool? Thanks Marie
