Worth turning a blind eye to the tired condition of this hotel for the views and set dining experience. Our family of three came away with great memories staying here, waking up to epic lake and Mt. Fuji views, the large, Japanese-style family room we had on our second of two nights, friendly staff and convenient shuttle to Kawaguchiko bus station. The public bath was a fun experience for us, particularly with the Fuji view while soaking. The hotel entrance makes it feel like it's a luxury hotel, but the room we had on the first night, in particular, was shabby with missing handles, chipped and worn furniture, toilet seat partially detached, and just all-round tired fixtures and fittings. Food was superb.
