2-Star Hotels in Yamanashi Prefecture, Japan

The staff was really nice and helpful! Also there were very delicious traditional breakfasts provided for extra charge that was more than affordable. The hotel is not far from the station, about 10-15 minutes walk with beautiful views on the Mountain Fuji and cozy streets. If you go left you’ll come across lots of shops and cafes. The hotel itself is pretty old, but renovated and has huge rooms (especially in Japan). Didn’t get the information about trash collecting, nobody did it and it was a bit inconvenient. Anyway, I adored this place and didn’t have any troubles. Thank you so much!

Super hotel, very clean and cozy, the owner is a great guy!!! I recommend it to everyone.

I was pleasantly surprised to catch a partial glimpse of the top of Mount Fuji from my room, even though there were buildings obstructing part of the view. The room facilities were very new and well-equipped. I was particularly delighted that the room provided an electric grill, perfect for tabletop BBQ; we bought wagyu beef and fresh vegetables from the supermarket every night to grill. There was also a microwave, which was very convenient. The self-check-in process was smooth and easy. Shopping and dining options nearby were fantastic; there's a convenience store just a few minutes away, and across the street, there's a row of restaurants. Paid hot springs are also available in the vicinity.

The hotel's location is a major plus, just a one-minute walk from Kawaguchiko Station. This meant no dragging luggage around after arriving, and it was super convenient for catching the bus early the next morning. You can even see Mount Fuji right from your window (as pictured), and it's about 500 meters from the famous Lawson convenience store (as pictured). We walked to Oike Park in about 15 minutes and enjoyed an impressive fireworks display there. The owner is a kind old man who can speak simple English and even a little Chinese, which was more than enough for check-in and check-out procedures. The room is small and doesn't have a private bathroom, but both the room and the shared toilets were impeccably clean, which was reassuring. There's also a public bath on the fourth floor. It's perfect for a short one-night stay.

The room is very old and it is a hotel run by an old lady. Entering it feels like traveling back to the Japanese dramas of the 80s and 90s! The room has a view of Mount Fuji! The rooms are actually as clean as those of an ordinary home, and the public baths use hot spring water. Normally there aren't that many people staying in the hotel. You can take showers at off-peak hours and still enjoy a large bathroom all to yourself. There are several toilets on both floors. There is no need to worry about fighting for the toilet. The hotel is less than 10 minutes' walk from Lake Kawaguchi. It can be said to be very friendly. It is recommended that those who want to experience an authentic Japanese-style hotel can try it. The hotel has free wifi and air conditioning. There is a private car shuttle to Kawaguchiko Station every morning at 8:30 and 9 o'clock. If you miss it, you can take a bus nearby and walk to Kawaguchiko Station, which takes about 20 minutes.

I was looking for a budget hotel with a view of Mount Fuji. I booked based on reviews, even though the shared bathroom made me a little hesitant. I had booked a small single room, but on the day of my stay, there were no other guests, so they put me in a large quad room. And the bathroom turned out to be not just a shared shower, but a small onsen (perhaps it was an o-furo, not mineral spring water). The owner happily told me it was all for my sole use :-) The room had a view of Fuji. WiFi was available in the rooms (which wasn't mentioned in the hotel description). There's a kitchen with all appliances and utensils. There was also a fridge in the room itself. The decor was simple, but everything was convenient.

It's a perfect location if you plan to stay in Kawaguchiko area. The staff are very polite and they will offer you onsen for free during upon checking in. The room is very spacious and clean, they also have a bike rental for 500 yen per day.

Everything was perfect. The staff were super and the view of Mount Fuji was incredible. The spa was also top-notch. The lake is very close, which was a big plus for me as I'm not a big walker. There's even a free shuttle service from Kawaguchiko station to the hotel. I highly recommend it!

The surroundings were wonderfully quiet and comfortable, with hardly any crowds. Located right by Lake Yamanaka, it offered fantastic direct views of the scenery. The room's tatami setup was absolutely stunning, and you had to wear slippers to enter, which added to the authentic charm.

It's has very cosy feel local Japanese Ryokan(BB) style and we love it. Not luxury,not to expensive but suitable if you looking for Ryokan in Fuji Mt. area. Included nice easy breakfast,not big for Americans but it's delicious. The location is not recommend for walking to, if you drive a car it will be perfect (free parking) Some may say it looks old, but to me I would say it looks vintage and classic you couldn't find in the city. *Only 10mins drive to famous cafe”paper moon”
