[2024 Fujikawaguchiko Stay] Travel Guide for The Kukuna (Updated Sep)

Travel to Lake Kawaguchi, stay at this hotel! The rooms are super super super comfortable!

Travel to Lake Kawaguchi, stay at this hotel! The rooms are super super super comfortable! Compared to Ubuya, which is always fully booked, the yet-to-be-discovered Kukuna can really be called a hidden gem (make sure to book with dinner, it's really worth it!). Its location is right in the center of Lake Kawaguchi, offering an unobstructed view of Mount Fuji. You can enjoy the beautiful scenery of Lake Kawaguchi and Mount Fuji just by opening the curtains in the hotel room, and every room has a private balcony facing Mount Fuji (make sure to check the weather forecast before coming, or you will regret it). Some room types in the hotel also come with a private hot spring bath, where you can soak while watching Mount Fuji, which is incredibly healing (even if you don't have a private hot spring bath, the rooftop open-air hot spring also offers a view of Mount Fuji, and you can take amazing photos when no one is around!). Since the hotel is right by Lake Kawaguchi, you can get up early in the morning for a run or walk along the lake, and at night you can stargaze directly from the balcony. During the day, if you get tired from playing around the area, there is a bus stop along the lake where you can take a bus directly back to the hotel. It's really convenient. If you are departing from Tokyo, you can take a bus from Tokyo Steel Tower Station to Lake Kawaguchi Station, then ask the staff at the visitor center to call the hotel for you, and the hotel's shuttle bus will arrive in about 10 minutes! The hotel offers a free shuttle bus to Lake Kawaguchi Station and Tenjosan Park Cable Car Station every morning, but you need to book in advance (the last shuttle is at 11 o'clock).

Kukuna is a hotel that you can't go wrong with if you want to see Mount Fuji.

Yes, it's a hotel that you'll regret not staying at! When I first found out about this hotel, I was hesitant because of the price and the fact that it wasn't snow season when I was going. But the more I researched and read about it, the more I was determined to experience it for myself. Who knows when I'll be able to come back? Kukuna has a Southeast Asian island 🌊 style Each room even comes with an open-air balcony You can lie in the balcony's thought hall and gaze at Mount Fuji in the distance Some room types even have a foot bath next to them Drinking a beverage while soaking your feet is a truly wonderful feeling! 🛏️ All three room types come with an open-air balcony, and you can enjoy unobstructed views of Mount Fuji. The only difference is whether the room comes with a private bath! 🍱 Dining: Breakfast is buffet style, and I highly recommend choosing dinner! The teppanyaki is as good as any restaurant, so foodies can rest assured and go for it!! After the dishes are served, you can go to the buffet area to choose special dishes, fruit 🍎 desserts, etc., all of which are very fresh. ✨ What's even more surprising is the large open-air hot spring "Mahina" on the top floor of KUKUNA, which is affectionately known as the "floating hot spring"♨️. It seems to blend in with Lake Kawaguchi, and you can almost touch the lake water. The atmosphere is full.

The terrace of the wind at the Kawaguchiko Lake KUKUNA August, Mount Fuji is open to the top and meets the Golden Week in Japan. It is the peak season of the Kawaguchiko Hotel. Along the estuary lake, there are many options from B&B to Japanese-style hot spring hotel. In the end, I stayed at the KUKUNA hotel on the terrace of this wind because all of its rooms face Mount Fuji and you can enjoy the view without leaving the door. Not only that, the hotel's newly built Vision Pavilion on April 10, 2017, the sky terrace, has an open air in the room, facing the Fuji Mountain Hot Springs, this scene is really attractive ~ As soon as you enter, you feel very different from the style of a general Japanese hot spring hotel. KUKUNA means the sunshine in a distant exotic park, and the clothing from the overall decoration to the waiter is full of exotic flavors. On the left side of the first to fifth floors are the central hall, the branch and the room, and the foreign house; the right side is the square pavilion, all of which are suites, and the fifth to the ninth floor is a newly built prospecting hall with open air. The latter two types of rooms can be used at the KUKUNA Club on the 7th floor, with a variety of local drinks. Because the terrace location may be seen from the outside? The room is also specially equipped with a barrel-shaped towel bathrobe, which is worn in the open air.
