This was a great Ryokan experience for us. The public baths had an outdoor section that has Mount Fuji right infront of it, breathtaking view! The dinner and the breakfast provided was an amazing experience as well, it was so tasty and the staff was so friendly and accommodating to our toddler! They brought her rice porridge and there was so much food! The only two downsides for our stay was first the cleanliness of our room and the location of the ryokan. Our bathroom was very dirty! The location is pretty much isolated, we would’ve liked to have some sort of trail or cafe or something close by to visit as we did get a little bored. Otherwise it’s a wonderful experience!

Staying at this ryokan was a highlight of our trip. The baths have the best views I’ve ever experienced in Japan. The staff was so friendly and the food was amazing. We stayed three nights and they never served us a dish twice. This is a splurge but well worth it to experience the Fuji area in the best way possible!

We had an amazing time here. The staff is very nice and helpful, the location is right in front of the lake and you get a breath taking view of mt. Fuji at the rooftop. The bath is very calming and the food is so delicious and fun to experience. I recommend this place definitely to anyone who plans to stay near mt. Fuji for a day or two. This was the highlight of our trip!

The service was amazing. The bath tub/sink in the room was too old. It's needed to update. The elevator didn't have any sensor. Just be careful because I got hit 2 times! Ouch! Japanese style meals were amazing. Everyday we got the different set both breakfast and dinner. The mattress in the room too thin and hurt my back. So, I put 2 or 3 mattress instead. I love the original ryokan look and tradition in this property. I wish I got the private onsen in the room. The location is good. We saw both view from lake and Fuji when clear sky.

Quite expensive to get such a dated room. Should invest to modernise the bathroom and toilet. Staff were super friendly and welcoming and the set meal was decent. But overall we feel that it was not very good value unfortunately.

We enjoyed our stay here. They offer a shuttle to and from the train station in the morning (0800-1100, I think) and again from 1400-1700. They have a strict no tattoo policy for the public onsen but do offer a private onsen that can be booked in 30 min increments for a fee. As mentioned by others they do not allow any changes to meals. This wasn't a problem for us and we thoroughly enjoyed our dining experience. Our room was spacious and clean. The location was very peaceful and serene.

Great stay. Highly recommended
Wonderful relaxing hotel with indoor and outdoor onsen. Service is absolutely amazing from all personnel. Set dinner was in the room and was served by incredibly wonderful staff member. They are very strict about serving a specific meal and do not accommodate any food allergies and preference. However , they did inform us what the food contains and we had an incredibly delicious and filling dinner! Breakfast was served in a dining room. It was a traditional Japanese breakfast (no coffee…) Highly recommend the place for the incredible service from everyone , the delicious food , nice rooms , nice onsen and views of my Fuji !
Amazing dinner
