Pros: Service was very personalised, the view from the room was great, and the hot tub was wonderful

Pros: Personal Onsen. Rooftop view. Helpful room staff. Delicious dinner

Cons: We needed help getting a taxi to pick us up from a shrine 20 minutes away. The same concierge team that had helped us get a taxi there in the first place, denied us help and we struggled to find transportation back for an hour, almost missing our paid-for breakfast. They said they didn’t know what we looked like and wouldn’t be able to send a taxi to us. We were disappointed in this service as it left a bad taste on the day we were checking out. Other than that, the rest of the staff was helpful, respectful and great.

My partner proposed to me during our stay and the staff really helped him to make it happen, and made us feel incredibly special.

Pros: The view is breathtaking. And a lot of activities.

Cons: They should provide transportation from station to hotel.

Pros: Really near the main bus station – a plus point because we were freezing when we arrived and didn't have to suffer in the cold for so long. I also had slight reservations about this place before arriving, with its shared bathroom and all, but to my surprise it was all very clean and we didn't bump into other guests at all during our stay. I also liked the vibe of this place, it was very homey. The room we got was really spacious, so we were happy about that! The staff was very friendly, and respectful of guests' privacy.

Pros: Good location! My room 203 can see the Mt. Fuji in the evening and morning. it's a very nice view. The staff is so kind. The guesthouse is clean and convenient. Highly recommendation!

Cons: They should lock the door all the time instead of 9.00 pm because when the staff leaves it's easy for an outsider to come inside the guesthouse. Should be safer.

Pros: Great location with 3 mins walk from the station Shared bathroom and toilet are very clean, new and well equipped. Comfortable room with tatami Can even see Mt fuji from the room window

Cons: None

Pros: Location is perfect, just 1.5 blocks away from Kawaguchiko station where you can conveniently get on trains and buses. Convenient stores are within 5-7 minutes walking distance as well! Staff is very helpful, they explained how to go around and even told me where to find the cheapest grocery! Bike rental is available and in reasonable pricing.

Pros: Very close to the train and bus station. The staff was helpful. Quiet neighbourhood.

Cons: The pillows weren't that comfortable. The shower facilities were on the first floor and we got rooms on the 2nd floor. No ironing items.

Pros: Staff were very friendly, kind, and welcoming. They even allowed us to store our luggage at the facility before we checked in and after checking out. They were always willing to help. The facility was sparkling clean and very quiet. The rooftop was small but had a nice view of Mt. Fuji and the town.

Pros: Fuji mountain view

Cons: The heater was failed and a new one has a bad smell like a gasoline. The air-conditioning was failed too.

Pros: The staff were nice and helpful, everything was clean. They had a nice lounge and pantry where guests could relax and fix some meals. Would definitely come back again if i have the chance

Cons: The location was a bit far from the station. But with the view of mount Fuji along the way it certainly worth it.

Pros: good location

Cons: Limited shower room

Pros: The owner of the property takes care of all your needs throughout the stay. He is very helpful and nice. The property has an indoor hotbath and open air Jaccuzi for use.

The property should be a family business and it is highly recommended with such quality and service.

Cons: Nothing.

Pros: Feel like home and the owner take very good care. Onzen and coffee without charge : D

Pros: Located in a quiet place away from busy streets and tourists. Amazing quest house owners and family. The owner welcomes guests with genuine happiness and hospitality. He not only sang welcome song for us but also gave us free self-grown sweet potatoes. My husband and I had a great time with the hot spring in the guest house. The western style breakfast was truly amazing as well, very delicious which is what I want for the morning. The owner's wife even drove us to the train station which we were deeply grateful for. Before we left, the owner gave us some presents which is more than enough. I highly recommend everybody to stay in this place with a clear view of Mt. Fuji. Surely a get away place !!!!

Pros: Yoshi-San was an amazing host. Very friendly and helpful with all of our questions. The place is very comfy and clean and it's Mt. Fuji viewing lounge has a great view of the mountain. I would recommend getting up early to get a good unclouded view. The breakfast was very fresh and tasty. All in all, a fantastic experience. Would highly recommend this place!

Cons: One very minor niggle is that the shower stall in our room was a bit small but otherwise there's almost nothing to complain about.

Pros: The property is a 10 minute walk from the lake. But the room has fantastic views of Mt Fuji and it was beautiful to see it in the morning. Very clean rooms and an excellent Yoshi-san who went out of the way to make us feel comfortable. He takes special care explaining the details and very soon one feels quite at home. We had a great evening at the onsen after dinner. Special mention about the music session by Yoshi. a must do with a drink in hand.

Pros: Very nice, friendly and hospitality host Yoshi san and family. Provate onsen, jaguchi, viewing lounge etc... are superly clean and good! Private music bar by the host are really entertaning and enjoyable. Very nice and quite place to relax and enjoy the very magnificient scenery of Mt. Fuji both from room, dinning and jaguchi area etc... Value for money for budget tourists.

Cons: N/A

Pros: - Staffs are friendly - Breakfast and dinner is great - The room is really clean - Hot-spring is great

Pros: Service is excellent. Breakfast is delicious. Mt. Fuj view in the room is magnificent

Pros: 1. Location: nothing beats waking up to the view of Mount Fuji and Lake Kawaguchi just outside the hotel! 2. Facilities: 2 free onsens are really good, with the view of Mt Fuji! Feels recharged! 3. Kaiseki dinner + breakfast: i’ve never had such traditional and elaborated meals before. I couldn’t have appreciated it more! 4. Service: Staffs are ALL so friendly, approachable, helpful and easy going. Free shuttle bus from Kawaguchi station, and they even sent us back to the station even after the shuttle bus operating hours. 5. Transport: Red line brings you to the hotel, at both Stops 11 & 12.

Cons: There is nothing to dislike about this place. It was way above our expectations!

Pros: Very friendly and helpful staff who will go the extra mile to make you feel welcomed. Shuttle service was great, driver was attentive and happy to help. Rooms are clean.

Cons: Would prefer a card key instead of a physical key that was quite bulky. If your room is not in the same tower as that of the reception, it can be a bit of a hassle to access the common corridor that links both towers (for breakfast and visiting the reception desk).

Pros: You can see Mt Fuji from your room window , Nice design Interior Hotel Not far from kawaguchiko Station, Nice staff Near convenience Store & Drug Store

Cons: None

Pros: The design of the hotel which combines traditional Japanese architecture and modern industrial design is the main reason I chose to stay at this hostel! The facilities are in good condition and the location is great! the restaurant

Cons: nothing really, maybe there could be more options for breakfast

Pros: The entire hostel is so tastefully decorated. We stayed in a Japanese style room and loved it. The futtons are really really comfortable and, for us, it was just an awesome experience. From the private rooms you also have a direct view of Fuji from your window which is just the cherry on top. The breakfast was the best breakfast we had our entire 3-week trip in Japan! The location is really convenient: close to the station, multiple supermarkets nearby and even a bunch of restaurants. A 30-year (yes 30!) cat also partially lives in the hostel which is just awesome.

Cons: Like al lot of other reviews have mentioned, it is a bit inconvenient that you have to go downstairs to shower. If you are aware before though, no big deal. The restaurant was closed when we got to the hostel without us knowing. We counted on eating there. Would have been nice if the hostel announced which 5/6 days a week the restaurant is open.

Pros: Didn't get to try the breakfast but the coffee was great. Dinner and drinks fantastic. Great view of Fuji in the morning.

Cons: Nothing could improve. Was great

Pros: People is very kind And it’s a good place

Pros: Modern facilities Super clean

Cons: N/A

Pros: Fantastic Japanese luxury ryokan with a private onsen, which is great for tourists who wants to experience authentic Japan.

Pros: A very beautiful resort onsen. We had an onsen suite which meant we had our own private onsen. It was wonderful to use as the nights were chilly. Loved it! The staff was excellent and spoke great English, which was quite helpful since our Japanese is very basic! We would stay here again!

Pros: Everything was perfect. The bathroom was direct to the Onsen which was very convenient. The bedroom is big enough for 2 persons. Breakfast was phenomenon.

Cons: The smell of gas while the heat was turning on both indoor and outdoor.

Pros: Visiting Japan, we were looking for opportunities to experience its onsen culture, kaisei cuisine, traditional culture and visit to the nature. This was a dreams-come-true stay at Fuji Onsenji Yumedono and visit to the Kawaguchiko for Mt. Fuji. The dinner and breakfast were just exquisite and spiritually and physically fulfilling. The hotel is within walking distance to the Kawaguchiko bridge where photography lovers would find the perfect spot for Mt Fuji (and gyuku (opposite) Fuji). It was easy to access other sightseeing spots by foot or by bus as well. All the staff were so friendly and helpful and extremely polite and professional-- taught us how to wear the ukata, found extra cape for our 6-year-old daughter and helped with pick-up, luggage, etc. The on-suite private onsen was just a bless & bliss! No embarrassment at communal bath and no time limits. We used it before and after dinner and breakfast and felt so relaxed and rejuvenated. We will definitely come back again in the future.

Cons: Nothing.

Pros: Cleanliness Professional staff Convinience

Cons: -

Pros: Beautiful view when I take a bath. Food is nice and I was surprised especially breakfast ,there were many things to eat! Staffs were very kind to our child.

Pros: They have a beautiful private onsen for each room. The staffs were so so polite. The dinner and breakfast was amazing. The entire experience is perfect. You can experienced Japanese culture here.

Cons: The only things to be improved maybe just the guidance from the staff, eg. I don’t know how to wear their Yukata (a kind of Japanese onsen suit) and there’s no hint in the room; while having dinner / breakfast, I’m not quite sure how to start. And also, if we can see Mount Fuji while in the onsen, that probably will add marks to the entire experience. But they still worth 5 stars for sure.

Pros: Beautiful onsen, the staff were lovely and the location was great!

Pros: hot springs and meals. both breakfast and dinner were better than in Palace Hotel Tokyo!

Cons: well, it is traditional Japanese inn, so you sleep on the floor ;)

Pros: The food is delicious, the room is spacious. Some staffs were helpful and pleasant. You can see Mount Fuji and the lake.

Cons: Dusty and not very clean(windows facing the lake view is a bit blurry due to the unclean windows). Location very isolated without much amenities in the vicinity. Some of the room might have a musky smell. At 12 midnight the pipes rattling probably from the draining of the water is really loud making it hard to sleep. Facilities are old rustic and maybe out of date.

Pros: view and hot spring

Cons: a spa at every room would be nice

Pros: Good service and nice hot spring.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: My parents were visiting Japan and wanted a taste of a traditional Japanese ryokan. They (and I) were amazed by the attention to detail and the level of service provided by the hotel staff. I ate dinner and breakfast at the hotel and it was one of the best meals I've eaten in Japan--many small dishes that vary in texture in flavor. My parents were not comfortable with public bathing and were grateful that Maruei offers private onsen. For me, I enjoyed the three different public baths offered! From the rooftop of the hotel, we were able to enjoy views of Mt. Fuji. Based on some reviews we were concerned about the location of the hotel. However, if the weather is nice it's a nice walk from the central area to the hotel. There is also a free shuttle on check-in/check-out and a public bus that passes by. For us, the location wasn't a problem at all. I definitely can recommend Maruei if you are staying in Kawaguchiko!

Cons: Nothing! Everything was great. No complaints.

Pros: The location is absolutely stunning with amazing views of Mt. Fuji and located directly on the lake. The staff is amazingly friendly, helpful and kind! Loved loved loved our stay!

Pros: Everything

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Great,pleasant stay They offer to drive you to any restaurant and pick you up. Free of charge Free rental bikes

Cons: Staff speaks almost no English A bit far off (can be a plus,very quiet) Breakfast was adventurous

Pros: Everything was great. It felt like we were staying at someone’s home for a few days! The family were lovely and super attentive, who all went above and beyond to ensure we got the most out of our stay, and tailored our breakfast to suit our dietary requirements, making us feel like we were at a 5 star hotel at times. Thank you all very much for everything!

Pros: My husband, friends and I all looked to our overnight onsen experience as a highlight of our trip. Some of the points that made our visit so wonderful were: -Wonderful onsen experience -Helpful owners that went out of their way to make your stay memorable -Shuttle to the train station -Delicious homemade breakfast -Mix of Japanese and European style

Cons: Not really something I disliked, but be prepared for the owners not speaking much English. A few of my friends had some limited use of Japanese, which made things much smoother than they would have been otherwise.

Pros: I came for the Fuji 5 Lakes Ultra. As there is no hotel plan available for overseas runners, I have to find a hotel closest to the start line so that I can walk to the start in the early morning. To my surprise, the lodge owner offered a ride to me which helped me greatly. Much appreciated.

Cons: I can't think of any for the moment.

Pros: Quiet setting, good breakfast, very friendly hosts, free use of city bicycles, laundrymat close by. Nice outdoor hot tub/Jacuzzi

Cons: The location is slightly out of town, but the hosts offer to drive you into town or local restaurants and pick you up so it wasn't a problem. This wasn't really a negative but just to make you aware that it is not in the center of town.

Pros: This is a lovely place to stay. A characterful property, warm and cosy, in an idyllic setting. With limited English, the owner is helpful and courteous; facilities are acceptable, including a private Onsen. The rooms are of a very good size, clean and with all the necessities.

Cons: I made the mistake of forgetting my International Driving License and so couldn't rent a car - Don't make the same mistake, your own transport is an absolute must at this property!!!! The free pick-up and drop-off to/from the station is at very restricted times (to suit the owner). Communication with the hotel is quite limited but that could be due to the language barrier. Does not have a proper shower, just a handheld shower hose

Pros: The staff were delightful - very friendly and helpful. They gave us a lift into the town, booked us a restaurant for dinner, and took us to the mid-winter fireworks display (we didn't know there was one).

Pros: Staff were incredibly accommodating, picking us up from the station, driving us to Fuji Q and back and lending us torches. Very friendly and lovely even though they claimed to have poor English. Room was decent size, comfy and clean.

Cons: Our room was set up with two single beds, but may have just been an error with the booking I made. Although my husband and I didn't mind walking through the forest to get to some restaurants for dinner, it may bother some people.

Pros: Fancy breakfast with a thoughtful touch. And there’s a onsen room where we can soak a tired body with a hot spring. The interior and exterior design brought a european ambience which is very unique and full of character.

Cons: The staff cannot speak english. It’s bit hard to communicate but they had a pocket translator. The bed is hard and the pillow is minimalist. The location is in the woods. It’s not walking distance to the nearest shop or restaurant. But they are willing to pick up and drop off every day.

Pros: The host was very kind. I had a back injury. They helped me to lift the luggages to the third floor and also drove me to the kawaguchiko station when I left.

Cons: Shower was a bit odd. You will have to sit and shower. Also there is no hot water from the basin on 2nd and 3rd floor.

Pros: The Japanese style room. The location near to rail and bus station.

Cons: A bit pricy. Dinner was quite expensive.

Pros: Great service by the host and hostess. The futon beds were comfortable and room was spacious for four of us. Breakfast was well prepared and tasty. Yukatas were prepared for us. Host offered us a lift to the station which was unexpected. Made our stay in Japan very special.

Pros: This is a ryokan hotel and you have everything you need within this concept. I had a whole selection of blankets and futons should I have needed more. Sparsley furnished within this concept everything was spotless. In my room in the morning from the extreme left hand window one had the most stunning view of Mount Fuji, as seen over a graveyard in the foreground. On the corner of the main road, just below the hotel is a rather scruffy looking Chinese restaurant. It is run by one woman doing all the cooking, washing and clearing up. You sit up at a sort of bar facing the chef. It is brilliant with delicious food, but doesn't run very late so get in early and don't be put off by the rather untidy interior. Cash only; no credit cards.

Cons: The washbasins out side the first floor (Europe definitians) bedrooms only run cold water, OK for doing one's teeth at night, but not for shaving in the morning, for which I had to go down to the ground floor and the shower and bath facility, kneel before the mirror and use the hot water from a shower head.

Pros: I really like the steam bath they have in their place. We visited in autumn (Nov) and the hot bath was very soothing. Also, the owners are so kind and good, they gave us a ride to the station and we are ever so grateful for that since we we're really catching up the time. Also, the place is very near lake kawaguchiko. It was just a bit unfortunate for us since when we we're there it was a rainy day, so we didnt see any glimpse of mt. Fuji. Domo arigatou guizaimazu to the owners. I highly recommend this place. I forgot to add. It is a traditional japanese room which we liked very much. And they give free green tea.

Pros: The owner are very kind, the had prepared us the hot water for green tea in every evening whenever we go back to the hotel we will found it in our room. We are appreciated for their kindness for take care us as their family. The location is nearby the Kawaguchiko lake at bus stop no.9 (Red line bus) and also not far from bus station. On the way from the bus station to the place you can find many different local restaurants and minimart. We are do recommend this nice place :)

Pros: The room was spacious and clean. We had a pretty view of Mount Fuji from one of our windows. The hotel owners were amazing and wanted us to feel welcome. Their kindness made the trip an unforgettable experience for us.

Pros: Location is pretty good, tasty breakfast

Cons: Cleanliness.. really, a lot of dust in the room, dirty washing machine, and it smelled like in Senior's house. Also I didn't like the fact that we weren't asked to show documents at all. Not sure if they work legally. And the price... It's just too high for what you get. But looks like that area is not cheap in general.

Pros: The spacious of the room and the view of Mount Fuji.

Cons: More than 1 km walking distance from train station.

Pros: Very nice and comfortable hostel. Walkable distance to the lake to get the view of mt. Fuji. And the owner herself was really kind

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Small Room with super clean and good location for traveling around leak Kawaguchiko

Pros: The location; easy to locate, near bus stop, lovely view of Mount Fuji from Lake Kawaguchiko. Pleasant owner. They provide free bikes too!

Cons: Nothing. Everything was just perfect.

Pros: I like the staff.friendly and much informative. The cleanliness off the premises.like the view the deco and there is free bike.

Cons: The bed is a bit thin.
