Great onsen and service

Full cultural immersion in the Japanese culture, this hotel offered great service, food and onsen. Staff were polite and helpful, the lake and Fuji view were amazing! On the other hand, access was not easy given it was done through the green line Omni bus, that offers a worse service than the red one

Unforgettable Ryokan Culinary Experience

Staying at Wakakusa no Yado Maruei was a memorable way to experience a traditional ryokan. The absolute highlight was the food—both dinners and breakfasts were outstanding, with each meal beautifully presented, creative, and completely different across our three days. Every bite felt like a special occasion, and the attentive, gracious service made the dining experience truly exceptional. The overall service throughout our stay was excellent as well—warm, thoughtful, and seamless in a way that made us feel truly cared for. The room itself was interesting and authentic, but less about comfort and more about tradition. As a side sleeper, I found the futons a bit too firm, and during the day, with the beds put away, there wasn’t really a cozy spot to relax. That said, the setting and atmosphere make up for it if you’re looking for a cultural experience rather than a plush stay. The complimentary shuttle to and from the train station was also a helpful touch. Overall, this ryokan is perfect for those wanting to immerse themselves in Japanese tradition and enjoy some of the best meals you’ll ever have.

The hotel is situated in the shadow of Mt. Fuji and on the shores of a lake on the other side.The baths were amazing with views of both. The traditional royokan rooms were an immersion in the traditional Japanese experience. However the absolute highlights were the authentic Japanese meals served by the most friendly and helpful staff. This stay could be the highlight of your trip.
