Good room for the price. Has all amenities needed with the exception of a fridge. Washroom did have a bit of a mold smell and the top bunk of our bed smelled like sweat and feet. Asides from that, we enjoyed our one day stay here.

A great place to stay

One of the best hostels I've stayed in, it's like a home away from home. Everything is spic and span and guests can make their own food and use the facilities like they would if they were in their own home. They also cook food and provide breakfast if you ask for it. Staying in a pod was a unique experience. The proximity to Oishi park is a huge advantage. This was the first time I stayed in a pod and the experience was surprisingly good and comfortable.

Appreciated the spacious private room option at this hostel. We arrived late and with language barrier it took a bit to locate parking area at night. Also not many restaurants near here open late so plan ahead. The staff and accommodations were fabulous. We would definitely stay again to further explore the breathtaking Lake Kawaguchi/Fujikawaguchiko area!

Visit to Mount Fuji area

This place is amazing. Our room was very spacious and modern with a nice view to the mountains. We have a private bathroom. The breakfast was delicious and they also have a dinner menu that we tried and were satisfied with the price and food quality. The staff is really friendly and the location super convenient, only 250 meters away from the bus station and the magnificent Oishi Park across street from the bus stop. We are glad we picked Dot Hostel for our stay close to Mount Fuji.

Very clean and comfortable hostel, we booked for a family of 4, room had 4 huge bunk beds, with large table, a sofa and 2 chairs. Extremely comfortable. Washing machine and dryer available as well. You need to inform the hostel 3 days in advance if you want to have breakfast or bbq. Parking is about 5 mins walk away, it is pretty dark when you walk back to the hostel from the parking lot. You'll definitely need a car to travel around the area. Oishi park is just across the street. Overall a very pleasant stay.

Clean. Cozy. Pleasant staff.

My family and I had a lovely stay. The room was very clean and well maintained. We stayed in the family room with shared toilet and but it was not so bad because the T/B was just across our room. We arranged pick up from the station to accommodate our group but I was not sure why there three other people booked so my family did not have enough space in the shuttle. Anyway, they arranged another car to pick up the rest of the group so everything went well in the end. The staff are very accommodating and friendly. I would love to come back again.

Comfy hostel

Nice hostel, friendly staff. The beds are comfy and clean but could do with black out blinds. The location is a bit further out from the centre of town, which is nice if you want a bit of peace and quiet. There is a bus stop nearby at the Oishi park. Glad I stayed here in low season when there weren't too many other guests.

A great base for the Mount Fuji area.

Dot Hostel was great. We stayed for 2 nights when visiting the Mount Fuji area and were very happy with our stay. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The rooms were new, very clean and a good size. There was a really handy shuttle that took us to the Kawaguchiko station in the mornings and even picked us up again later in the day. This really helped with cost as the hotel is not in the easiest area to access via public transport. The place was super value for money and we would not hesitate to stay again or recommend this place to others.
