Hotels With Spa in Yamanashi Prefecture, Japan

Resort in Fuyo is located very conveniently and if you get the Mount Fuji view like my room, you’ll wake up with the amazing view! Down side is the lobby and walk way in general smells like cigarettes…

Amazing location for Families, right next to Fuji-Q highland, super convenient! Rooms are clean, beds are comfy, and we enjoyed the beautiful Mount Fuji view from our room. Love that the hotel connects directly to the Olsen with free entry for guests. Relaxing, comfortable, and great value. Will definitely stay again!

This hotel is located south of Lake Kawaguchiko, which isn't the most popular area. It's also quite old, dating back to 1887. However, the facilities and maintenance are up to par, and the hotel has a distinct, traditional Japanese style that exudes a historical sense of luxury. A wonderful surprise was that all the mountain-view rooms offer an unobstructed and stunning view of Mount Fuji, truly unique and beautiful, peaceful and serene. It's definitely worth staying here. Even though the hotel isn't in a prime location around Lake Kawaguchiko, they provide a shuttle service to and from Kawaguchiko train station, which takes about 10 minutes. Another highlight for me was the hot springs. The male and female baths are separate, extremely clean, and quite modern. There are indoor and outdoor baths; the outdoor setting is particularly relaxing. The contrast between the warm spring water and the cold outdoor air creates a comfortable feeling of embracing nature with an open heart. However, it's not advisable to stay in the springs for too long; I was back in my room within twenty minutes. The hot spring experience is definitely one of my fondest memories of this hotel. For dinner, the hotel offers French cuisine and Kaiseki. We ordered one of each. They were decent, but the presentation and dining experience were very impressive. Right behind the hotel is the lake, where you can rent bicycles and cycle around, enjoying the beautiful scenery. All in all, this hotel was excellent and exceeded my expectations.

I was very satisfied with this hotel. From the welcome to check-in and the room facilities introduction, everything was handled excellently. We just relaxed on the sofa, and our luggage was sent directly to the room! The lobby thoughtfully provided tea, coffee, and snacks. The room was just as large and spacious as shown in the pictures. Although we had to change rooms due to availability issues, they provided all the help they could. We were able to check in early at 2 PM, and the breakfast buffet had a rich variety of options. The public bath wasn't crowded and was quite peaceful. Outside, there were even massage chairs – so comfortable! While the overall conditions and surrounding facilities might not compare to Tokyo, the entire experience and arrangements were really good.

The hotel's location is excellent, very close to attractions and not far from the station. It's quiet at night, and the room is just the right size, very clean, with views of Lake Kawaguchiko right outside the window. The onsen on the top floor is quite thoughtfully designed. The beef in the hot pot for dinner was very fresh, and the elderly lady who served our meal at the restaurant was incredibly warm and attentive, treating guests like family. She'd ask if you had enough to eat, which made me feel very welcome. Overall, I'm very satisfied and would consider staying here again.

Breakfast was good It was a room with a view of Mt. Fuji when it was sunny.

This hotel has a very traditional, old-fashioned feel. We arrived at Lake Kawaguchiko around 11 PM, so we had to take a taxi to the hotel. We rang the bell at the front desk, and a staff member, wearing traditional wooden clogs, came out. They barely understood English but were very dedicated. They escorted us to our room, meticulously explaining each facility, and even gestured to show us where breakfast would be served. If you want a lake view, I recommend booking a Japanese-style room. We booked a Western-style room, which was on the other side, and in the morning, we saw smoke rising from chimneys outside – a charming, everyday scene. We didn't see any bears, but surprisingly, we spotted monkeys! Breakfast was a set meal, though eating fish so early in the morning took some getting used to. The morning shuttle can take you to Lake Kawaguchiko. For the return trip in the afternoon, the shuttle only picks up after 3 PM. Alternatively, you can take the Red Line bus to a jewelry museum (I can't recall the exact stop) and walk a few steps from there. On weekend evenings, you can watch fireworks from across the river, right outside the hotel. They launch them from both the left and right sides. If you want a closer view, follow the crowd to the left for about 10 minutes.

Just a heads-up, there are two of these hotels in Kofu, so make sure you choose the one near the station. The food was great, with lots of local Kofu specialties, and everything smelled delicious. The hot springs were also very relaxing. However, the hotel is located at a crossroads where pedestrians can't cross directly, so you have to walk a detour, which was a bit inconvenient.

Me and my cousin had a great time at Villa Ensoleille with well-stocked kitchen, and stunning view from jacuzzi. Staffs are so friendly and welcoming, special thanks to Manager Mr. Hiroyuki-san for your hospitality. The villa is with an amazing view of Mt. Fuji and the environment is peaceful as well. We got an amazing time with an incredible Mt. Fiji view. Highly recommended Villa Ensoleille.

The room is nice. But It used to be more impressive when we stayed at this ryokan 5-6 years ago. Somehow we felt like their service dropped significantly. Everything are more strict  for example daily cleaning time is 11.00 -11.30 only and cannot be postpone. Check out time is 11.00  and then we decide to chill a bit at the lobby before leaving ( around 11.20 ) they politely asked us to leave by telling us that they will clean the lobby.  Which I think is there right to do so but it really feels uptight - not relax at all - and not as impressive like the other ryokans we stayed.
