“Amazing”
Amazing view, amazing food (make sure to book dinner and breakfast), beautiful and spacious room, available pickup from train station, and I appreciated the kind staff who also were very responsive in the chat! (Some people wrote the floor bed was not comfortable, to me it was perfect). The onsen was empty when I visited so I was alone with the nice view. Make sure to wake up early before the clouds appear so you see Fuji.

“I would love to stay here again for a longer period of time next time we come to Japan. Thank you so much for a wonderfu”
We had an unbelievable view from our room, with Mt. Fuji across the lake right in front of us. It was incredible to wake up to and the favourite part of my whole trip. I also loved the room itself – we had a Japanese style tatami room and it was extremely spacious and beautifully done up, and lovely to experience overall. The futon was very comfortable to sleep on and the bathroom was big. The staff at the property were very friendly and went out of their way to be accommodating. On the day we arrived, our train was delayed so we arrived at Kawaguchiko Station a little past the last shuttle bus time but they still picked us up after we messaged them on Booking.com, even driving us to Lawson so we could buy dinner. The traditional hotel breakfast was delicious and a joy to eat each morning. We especially loved the apple juice! They also accommodated the fact that one of us doesn’t eat seafood. The serving ladies were also very nice.
