While the hotel doesn't have a view of Mt Fuji from their rooms, the lake view is breathtaking from sunset to sundown. It is also conveniently located next to the ropeway and pleasure boat which provide excellent views of Mt Fuji. The facilities are clean and well maintained. Rooms are spacious. There are both gender seperated public onsens and private onsens that can be booked with an additional...

Cannot rave enough about this place! It was absolutely breath taking and incredible. This was the perfect stay to relax and reset for our Japan journey. The rooms were spacious, traditional yet modern, and had spectacular views. The happy hour for coffee and snacks was a sweet treat. The afternoon appetizers were delicious and happy hour was perfect. We very much enjoyed our stay and will recommen...

We loved our stay!! It was the best stay in our Japan Trip! And for the price that I saw of other Ryorkans not too bad (but it depends the type of room you choose). We had the twin room and it had lots of space & beautiful view of the lake! The hotel is stunning & they have great customer service. I was surprised that the cocktail hr & snacks were easily dinner. So we did not need dinner elsewhere...

I am in love with their raspberry tart but they seem to only offer 1 (cut into 8 pieces) every day during the lounge buffet. Gettin...

The facilities have been updated and everything was spotless. The bed was comfortable and even the in room kettle and hair dryers were of good quality. The onsen was clean and a great relieve to dip into every evening. And the ...
