Best Yamanakako Hotels

"The hotel boasts beautiful surroundings and spotlessly clean rooms. The unobstructed views of Mount Fuji from the window are absolutely stunning – truly unbeatable! They also offer bicycle rentals, which makes getting around incredibly convenient. It's very reasonably priced and offers excellent value for money. Both the owner and the staff are incredibly warm and hospitable. I had a very comfortable and pleasant stay, and I'll definitely be back!"

"Had an amazing time at Godere Hotel celebrating our wedding anniversary. The staff are super kind and respectful. The view from the glamping tent is amazing with a private onsen that overlooks lake Yamanaka and mount fuji. The staff made our experience really smooth and unforgettable and even offered to drive us to the bus stop when they figured we didn’t have a car. Will definitely be back again as soon as we could."

"Cleanliness 10/10 The wet and dry area of the bathroom are separate. Everyday they will clean the room unless you decline the cleaning service. Location 10/10 The area is secluded, the place is very private. For someone who doesn’t like crowded places and love peace and quiet, this place is for you. Plus it has a beautiful view of Mt. Fuji. It just so sad we only stayed 3days and 2nights, we checked-in late on our first day when Mt. Fuji showed up. We were busy looking for a place to eat since the hotel restaurant was already fully booked for dinner. The next day it rained and Mt. Fuji doesn’t show up until the day we left 😞 I suggest booking early if you want to eat dinner at the hotel since the nearest restaurant is already at the foot of the mountain which is 5-10minutes by car, and around 20-30minutes walk. The hotel provides free shuttle going down until 5:30pm only while until 8:00pm for picking up on yamanakako bus stop. For someone who loves to walk while enjoying the view, it really doesn’t matter but it tends to be dark and might be dangerous to walk at night time since it’s in the mountain side. Overall, I love the location, you won’t actually want to go out when you are in this resort. It has everything you need except hair conditioner 😅 Service 10/10 The staffs are really friendly and easy to talk with. All our requests were granted except booking dinner on our first night since we arrived late, though, the staff is very helpful to give us recommendations where to eat and helping us to book a shuttle. On the day of our check-out, the staff didn’t understand that we reserved the shuttle later that day to go out on the bus stop, but he immediately resolved it without arguing. Amenities 10/10 Amenities is complete but we haven’t used that since some of our members have tattoos and cannot use the sauna and onsen. While some of us are reserved and not used to being naked on the open 😂 Anyway, the rooms are spacious and we had a comfortable stay. We would definitely book this hotel again when we want to stay on a place with the view of Mt. Fuji. And we would love to recommend this place to our friends."

"很有驚喜的一間民宿，老闆人很好，屋裡設備完善，廚房什麼都有，我們是自己買食物回來煮，因為地點離市區有點遠，外面下著雪，在木屋裡面邊吃邊看雪真的不錯！"

"The hotel boasts an excellent location, offering stunning views of Mount Fuji directly from our room. Waking up to enjoy breakfast while watching the sunrise paint Mount Fuji in golden hues was absolutely blissful. During check-in, the front desk staff were incredibly patient, thoroughly explaining the hotel's location and amenities. They even provided us with a charming hand-drawn map. A bike rental shop is conveniently located near the hotel, and cycling around Lake Yamanaka was a truly wonderful experience. There's also a bus stop right outside the hotel, making it incredibly convenient to get to Lake Kawaguchiko."

"This was the hotel where we spent the most nights during our trip to Japan. First, let me explain why we chose this hotel. We were a group of four on a golf trip near Mount Fuji, and chartering a car in Japan is incredibly expensive. After two days of searching on Xiaohongshu and Ctrip, we stumbled upon this hidden gem. The owner is Chinese and offers a paid shuttle service daily from the hotel to the golf course. This service was incredibly thoughtful and convenient! While it's a paid service, it was a much more affordable and practical option compared to chartering a private car! Moving on to the service, the owners, a couple, are very genuine and down-to-earth. They sincerely provided dining recommendations, without any hidden agenda. The restaurants they suggested were all excellent value for money (a sushi restaurant and a yakiniku place) – delicious and affordable! They even took us to witness a panoramic sunset over Mount Fuji, which we truly appreciated! Lastly, regarding the hotel's location and facilities. It's situated at Lake Yamanaka near Mount Fuji, offering a peaceful and natural environment away from the crowds and bustle of Lake Kawaguchiko. It's definitely the top choice for anyone seeking tranquility. The rooms are incredibly spacious (definitely large by Japanese standards, allowing us to fully open our suitcases), perfect for families! The bathroom features a modern wet/dry separation, which is a great touch. The hotel itself is a beautiful traditional Japanese-style building. Right next door is the popular café, Paper Moon. (Unfortunately, due to our early starts and late finishes with golf, we didn't get a chance to try it. We'll definitely make sure to visit next time!) You can see Mount Fuji right from the doorstep, along with graceful swans! Overall, if you're planning a two-day stay around Mount Fuji, this is absolutely a high-value choice!"

"The villa location is great but there is no Mt Fuji view from villa 104. Remember to book Villa 101 / 102 if you want to have Mt Fuji view from villa. The villa is not so clean as i still can see dust / hair around the villa. Overall I'm fine with this villa due to its great location."

"100% natural, another travel experience for kids, quite place, cool design of the interior."

"Location: There is a bus stop at the door (Yamanakako Post Office Station), but if you take a long-distance bus to Yamanakako, the place where you get off is a 15-20 minute walk from the hotel! ! It is not very convenient if you drag a large suitcase. But Yamanakako is right outside the hotel, and Mount Fuji is behind it. There is also a parking lot in the hotel. Overall, it is more suitable for guests who drive themselves, travel light, or have a budget for taking a taxi (ps Yamanakako can only call a local taxi, and the assistance of the front desk is required) Hotel: The room type is very unique, the sauna room is in the middle of the room, and the balcony window is not big, but you can see the lake or Mount Fuji. The room is very spacious, with a separate shower and bathtub, as well as a large bath and breakfast room. The view of the breakfast room is highly recommended, it is great"

"Stayed in the room with private Onsen in April. The room was very big and facilities were great. We drove here with plans to visit Kawaguchiko and Gotemba, the location was good for us considering our mode of transport. The only issue we had was that the room was very hot. The heater was centralised and we could not adjust the temperature and was advised to open the window to cool the room down. Even though we opened the window, the curtains would limit the air from coming in which made the room feel a little like a sauna at times. I still give this place a big thumbs up but will reconsider coming back here because of the heating issue."
