Beautiful historic stay with great location.

This was a very cool and historic hotel to stay in. The location is great, which is either a short shuttle ride or about 15-20 minute walk from the bus station. It is walking distance to the cable car ropeway and swan boats that can be taking out on the lake. Rooms were comfortable and spacious. Staff were very helpful in helping us arrange luggage transportation and wonderful massages in our room. Take advantage of the observatory and public bath with views of Fuji. They have great game room with billiards and other games with great energy and people hanging out in the area. The bar drinks were a bit overpriced.

Wonderful stay

I love this hotel. Yes, it’s a little dated but to me that adds to its charm. It’s an older historic hotel with lots of interesting rooms. The onset was fabulous and updated. The staff was the best. I’d stay here again.

The staff was kind and responsive. The property does have an older feel to it, but that adds to its charm as a lakeside hotel. The 4 person traditional room was a unique and bonding experience for my family. Most restaurants and shops nearby close early, although there is a Lawson’s within walking that is 24/7. There is a hotel shuttle in the mornings, or the taxi ride to the train station is a short and economical 4 minutes away.

Charming Ryokan with fantastic staff

The traditional style room is large and very charming. As were the staff, who were all extremely friendly and helpful. We would love to especially shout out the shuttle bus driver who offered to take us to the station even though it was past the scheduled hours

We nicknamed the place The Japanese Grand Budapest Hotel. It’s a little worn down but has a lot of history and charm. The staff are lovely, the breakfast is huge and traditional, the bath and sauna are nice and relaxing, and it’s well located. Not modern and fancy but I would recommend.

Traditional stay right by the lakeside

Was a lovely stay by the lakeside. Great location, great price and excellent service. At the end of our stay we were offered a taxi back to the train station which was greatly appreciated after a long day of exploring the area. Will definitely consider staying here again on future visits to Lake Kawaguchiko! The building itself is lovely with a traditional feel. There are were lots of amenities and the view of Fujisan from the observation room was amazing.

Wonderful 2 night stay

Beautiful property with magical views of the lake by day and night. The staff were so friendly and informative. We really enjoyed the location by the lake and a short stroll for food, bike rental and Kawaguchiko Station. We stayed in a Japanese style room and found it very comfortable and plenty of space. Hot tip - don’t miss going to the onsen, the view of Mt Fuji is spectacular!
