Great service from all staff. Public onsen was beautiful and could be accessed privately late at night or during day (late morning/ early afternoon) and private onsen can be booked at reveption for 45 mins for 3300 yen. You are provided with slippers and a yukata for your stay as long as the usual amenities in your room. The breakfast, tea with cakes, and drinks reception with snacks daily was a lovely touch. Our room overlooked the beautiful lake kawaguchiko. Highly recommend this hotel and would stay again!

This is a little gem I stumbled upon when looking for a hotel in the Lake Kawaguchiko area. The hotel is situated on a hillside overlooking the lake. It’s sort of right in the middle of all the activities but being away on the hill makes it completely serene. The hill is fairly steep but the hotel provides a free shuttle service from the station upon request. The facilities are top notch. The rooms are spacious and well-equipped. The onsen is excellent. Everything you need is provided. They even give you fresh yukatas to use in the hotel. The food was great too. And the staff are super helpful. Highly recommend it if you are visiting the area.

We liked the modern design of the room and lounge option. Downsides is the bathroom is too small and no place to put the clothing or hang the towel and the heating kept going up even we turned it down.
