Godere Hotel Fuji Yamanaka Tabist

Our stay at this hotel in Yamanakako was absolutely wonderful. The location is stunning, surrounded by beautiful scenery and such a peaceful atmosphere. Everything was spotless and very well maintained. We stayed in a Japanese-style room, and it exceeded all of our highest expectations — spacious, comfortable, authentic, and truly special. The breakfast was delicious and incredibly generous. There was so much food that it was difficult to finish everything! The grounds around the hotel are also beautifully arranged and cared for, creating a very relaxing environment. We also had dinner there, which was excellent and offered at a very reasonable price. Yamanakako itself is much calmer and more peaceful than Kawaguchiko, so for us it was definitely the better choice. We highly recommend both the area and this hotel to anyone looking for a more relaxing stay near Mount Fuji. The only possible downside for some travelers might be the limited transportation options, but for us it was not a problem at all. There is a bus that circles the lake, and we easily reached Oshino, Fujiyoshida, and Kawaguchiko. In the evenings the town becomes wonderfully quiet, which was actually a huge advantage. After busy days in Tokyo, the silence and calmness here felt deeply relaxing. The hotel staff were exceptionally kind and helpful. We would especially like to thank them because my husband accidentally left his insulin medication in the refrigerator in our room. We did not even realize it was missing. After finding it during cleaning, the staff contacted us immediately and literally drove to the bus stop just five minutes before our bus to Mishima arrived to hand us the medication personally. We were truly touched by their kindness and care. This level of hospitality is rare and unforgettable. We wholeheartedly recommend this hotel and would gladly stay here again.

Generally decent stay, they offered to ride me to the bus stop free. Place was clean. Service was excellent. However the window was dirty, which blocks the view of Mount Fuji (which is literally the reason why I booked that room). If the windows are properly cleaned, it’s perfect.

great hotel nice staffs

There's no lift in the hotel. You'll need to walk up the stairs. The staffs were not friendly when checking in, no smile at all. They didn't not help us carry the luggage to our room (my leg was injured and climbing!) The ONLY REASON why we booked this hotel was because of the view. However, the window was super duper dirty! There's water stain and water mark everywhere on the window. The escrow room was not clean. There're dead fries on the window, ceiling, and shower. The shower was a joke! It's so tiny that you'd bump into the door, shower head, or shower knob when you're in the shower. The rail that holds the shower head and the toiletries shelf are loose. The hotel would charge you if you request for more blankets or pillows.
