We only stayed one night in Kawaguchiko, but it was unforgettable. The highlight was definitely the stunning view of Mt. Fuji — we could see it right from our balcony and even from the road just outside the hotel. It felt like a postcard come to life! The room was super clean, cozy, and very comfortable — exactly what we needed after a long day of travel. The staff were friendly and welcoming, which made the whole experience even better. Wish we could’ve stayed longer! Highly recommend if you’re looking for a peaceful stay with unbeatable views of Mt. Fuji.

Reception were happy to store our luggage prior to check in. When we returned, the luggage had been taken up to our room. Very helpful. Spacious room with balcony, kitchen facilities, comfortable bed and powerful shower. Tasty traditional Japanese breakfast available at a reasonable price. Overall really good value for money.

2 night stay

Hotel is about 15mins walk from kawaguchiko station. They do provide shuttle to the station in the morning (3 timing) with limited seating so reserved your seat first come first serve. Rooms are dated but very spacious. Certainly need a revamp for better and cosy feel. Amenity like pillows are self help at the lobby and microwave machine at level outside the lift. Nothing to offer around the hotel other than 7-11 about 3mins away, pharmacy and wine store just next to hotel and a family run japanese restuarant opposite hotel. On a clear day you can view fuji on the right side of the hotel like what u see on the picture of the hotel ads.

Great value for money.

Good room space. Has excellent view of mountains and relatively quiet. about 10 min walk from the station but very near good shops. Excellent for 2 days stay and well priced. You will need to do a bit of walking. If they had bicycles that would be superb.

Nice hotel but just a bit far

a bit far from metro and bus station. Especially if you are with your luggage, the thin road will give you some difficulty. Room is clean and big, which is good. There is shuttle services to bus station in the morning. So, back to the metro/bus station is easier.
