Location is good, but don’t expect it as a “ resort “, just average place to stay in, and you usually don’t get a chance to book either of two hotel restaurants and its junk stuff buffet at high price will be the only option

Great views!!
We stayed 3 nights in 2 different facing rooms- lakeview and My Fuji view as there was no one room for 3 continuous nights of stay and it turned out very well as we had both views of the Kawaguchi lake and of Mt Fuji. The hotel itself is a little dated but the location is great and there is a hotel shuttle as well as the sightseeing red loop bus stop bus right outside the hotel itself. Breakfast is included in room rate and quite good. Dinner is good. Staff were friendly and helpful. Our first room for 2 nights was 484sq ft with a lovely lakeview. For the last night we had to move room and do a check out of our room by 11am and leave our bags with reception till 3pm to move into our other room with Mt Fuji view. The only thing was we discovered the room (about 484sq ft) which we paid for the last night with an open bath was the same price as what the hotel normally charge for their suite (753sq ft) on the hotels.com website for 4Feb 2020! So just be aware and enquire more carefully on the room types and pricing. It may of course be due to the demand and supply factor. Other than that caution I would recommend a stay at the hotel.

I cannot believe I spent over 400USD for a room that had not been updated in at least 30 years. I would not even give this hotel 2 stars. The online photos do not accurately depict the current condition of the rooms. Breakfast had a lot of options but again the room and furnishings were worn and dated.

The front desk staff were awesome! I regret not getting their names because I would like to mention them by name as they were so great. They helped us rearrange the night we stayed when Fuji was closed because of a typhoon and they helped us check to make sure we could go back the next day. They also helped us get a great dinner when a lot of places nearby were closed. They were really great!

This is a classic Japanese Hotspring hotel that is great for family traveling with elders and young children. The hotel amenities may feel outdated when compared to more fancy hotels in the city, but the hotel staff and quality of service is just superb. It’s a great place to experience all that Fujikawaguchiko has to offer

Amazing Christmas stay
The hotel is beautiful! In the western + Japanese style room, the bed is extremely large or you can choose to use a futon on the tatami! I do recommened saving money and choosing the “lake view” rooms, because on the Mountain View selection, you can’t see the mountain from your room window. It’s actually outside of your door in the hallway window. Just as a heads up! Amazing breakfast and an excellent view from the private onsen! I highly recommened paying extra for those!

Good location but no evening food unless booked
The area of the Kawaguchico Lake is fantastic and from the 7 floor rooms west wing there is a view of Mt Fuji as well as the Lake from most of the rooms on the other side of the Hotel. The hotel itself however is very tired and needs a refit. The downstairs area particularly the carpets needs a refit and a good clean. Staff are very courteous and well trained. The locality does not have many restaurants open in an evening so it was disturbing that we could not eat in the Hotel restaurant. It had to be prebooked and was not available on check in night or the night after. So the only food available in the hotel was in the lobby bar and the only hot food was a toasted sandwich. Clearly this is a very tour based hotel and individual travellers as we were were not well catered for. The restaurant is very large so we could not understand why we could not eat there. Breakfast was good with over 70 people eating there on one occasion. Room were standard Japanese size with adequate facilities. In summary nice area, location of the hotel perfect, friendly efficient staff but but it needs a good clean up and in an evening no food option without advance booking before arrival and limited options outside.

Very expensive but the beauty of the view of the lake and Mt Fuji was worth it. So beautiful and relaxing. The private public outdoor onsen was nice and our in room onsen was very relaxing as well. My daughter and I also enjoyed the massage chairs they had. The breakfast buffet had a lot of choices. Dinner had unusual varieties of food. The town itself is small but we just wanted to enjoy the beauty of the lake and relax

Perfected our vacation
Besides the clear skies to meet Fuji-san, the leg of the trip was made great by the first class hospitality of the hotel staff. The menu for the 2-nights’ half board was well conceived and flawlessly executed. Though I can’t say the same for the kid’s meal. Overall, perfect view, perfect onsen, perfect location, perfect hospitality - well done on all fronts! We will be back!

Nice hotel but Fuji View room not worth the premiu
Had a good stay. Was especially impressed by the service of the friendly staff. Was however disappointed with the "Fuji View" room that we had to pay extra for. The core was blocked by trees. In the end, we had to go to the observatory like everyone else.

Great hotel for a casual visit
This is a great hotel with close access to the Kawaguchiko train and shuttle station and the lake. Hotel has a courtesy shuttle that runs two trips per hour. There's a viewing deck on top of the hotel for the Mount Fuji. They had delicious breakfast and live drum performance at lobby in the evenings.

This is not a new hotel, but it is well maintained clean and it's a nice hotel, I think this is the case with all the hotels in the area. I would recommend staying here, the lake view is great, the Mt. Fuji view is also great but you do have a view of the city between you and the mountain, whereas the lake view is unobstructed.

Fuji hotel - customer service at best
The customer service was one of the best experience i had from checkin, dining to checkout. I enjoyed the BINGO game as well. The view from the hotel of the lake and Mt Fuji was amazing. To further enhance hotel experience, I would suggest hotel to upgrade in room facilities such as provision of USB ports for charging, cable TV perhaps.
