Great service from the staff and amazing meals that were prepared by the hotel.
Also recommend booking the private onsen (with clear Mt Fuji views) makes the stay unforgettable!
Fantastic hotel with Japanese culture, high standards, very well maintained, beautiful view at Mt Fuji, hotel provided shuttle bus from and to kawaguchiko station. Breakfast and privet dinners were amazing experience. Staff very efficient. Highly recommend.
The tatami room was generLly clean and welcoming. The open air hot tub was great with view of the Kawaguchi Lake. Hotel staff are very friendly and helpful. Our server who brought our kaiseki dinner was terrific!
This is a special place and a special experience. First rate in every area. But i especially appreciated the staff. So friendly, attentive and efficient!

This is a must place to visit. The staff is amazingly friendly and helpful. The staff prepared bento breakfast for us to eat on our way to the next destination. They called Taxi for is too. The Ryokan hotel is highly recommended. The girls sauna has the view of mount fuji which makes it even better. Top deck with mount adda
We had the best time at the Wakakusa-no-yado, staff were amazing and the dinner and breakfast were exceptional. Thank you so much to the staff! We hope to come back in the future!
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
The hotel is so nice. Dinner and breakfast ere fantastic. Food looks small but very filling. Staff are so polite and friendly. Hotel has free shuttle bus to take guests to the major interchanges. I could stay there for a week just to explore the surroundings and enjoy the hotel services.
Such a great experience! We’ll be back. Warm welcome and excellent services! Room is clean with great view! Food is good. You can wear traditional Japanese clothes provided in the hotel which is a plus. There is a Mt Fuji observation deck on top of the building. We took really nice pictures there wearing traditional clothes. Public hot springs are clean with lake or Mt Fuji. There is a private one available for rent.

We had a very pleasant and wonderful stay at Ryokan. The excellent service, especially the kaiseki-style breakfast and dinner, provided us with an unforgettable experience full of Japanese culture. The Japanese-style hot spring bath is nice to have. Also the surrounding areas are beautiful with the view of Mt Fuji.
We do have two small suggestions: First, the strong tatami smell in the room might be improved with some light incense. Second, the large key for the room door was a bit inconvenient to use.
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.
We had a wonderful, relaxing, traditional stay here! The staff were incredibly nice and the meals they prepared for us were amazing. The room and views were calming and beautiful!
