Hotel berhampiran Yoshida Lava Tree Molds, Fujiyoshida

Si vous n’êtes pas Japonais et pas motorisé cela risque d’être difficile pour vous. Le bâtiment de l’hôtel, sans charme extérieur (euphémisme) est difficilement atteignable par les transports en commun et cela est impossible le soir. Il existe une navette qui vient vous chercher le jour de votre arrivée et vous dépose à la gare le matin de votre départ ou pendant votre séjour (3 horaires le matin). Pour revenir il y a un créneau d’appel mais pour nous il n’a pas fonctionné. Les chambres sont très bien, grandes et avec une superbe vue sur le mont Fuji. Le personnel est serviable mais ne parle que très peu anglais et communique par google traduction. Cela peut amener a des confusions comme cela c’est passe pour nous. La personne qui nous a reçus s’est montrée particulièrement odieuse, ce qui n’a pas été le cas du reste du personnel fort heureusement. Pas de restaurants alentours la plupart n’ayant pas rouvert après l’épisode covid. Prix trop cher de mon point de vue, 250 euros/nuit pdj inclus, certes en très haute saison mais quand même. Mention spéciale au vieux monsieur qui conduit la navette, il parle anglais et est vraiment très bien.

We love this place and the very nice view of Mt Fuji. Everything here is good, spacious and walking distance to Mt Fuji Stn and 7-11. Just that Near the railway sometimes it's a bit noisy but no problems for us. Check in system really difficult, luckily the cleaner passby to help us. We will come back one day.

Sarapan pagi adalah bufet biasa. Terdapat kopi, susu, teh, jus segar, dan pelbagai jenis roti. Terutamanya makanan Barat, daging, telur, ikan, dan pelbagai sayur-sayuran dan buah-buahan. Lokasi hotel masih terasa agak menyusahkan bagi pelancong yang tidak memandu. Di hadapan hotel adalah Fuji-Q Highland, di mana terdapat perhentian bas yang menghubungkan pelbagai tarikan Tasik Kawaguchi, Tasik Yamanaka, Tasik Barat dan Stesen Kawaguchiko. Terdapat tiket satu hari dan dua hari untuk stesen. Stesen ini mempunyai aksara Cina.

My husband and I stayed here for one night at the beginning of October 2020. Check-in time was at 2pm, and the staff members were very efficient and polite, dressed in lovely “yukata”. The room had a nice layout, with two double beds and a television, a separate sitting area with another television and mini-bar area, and a large sofa-bench/bed area by window from which one could view a very large Mt Fuji. There was an indoor bathroom area and a separate shower room that lead to an outdoor hot-bath which was not too hot. I did not even have to add any cold water to it. There was a rooftop hot bath (for women only) and nice larger hot-spring baths on different floors. Other smaller family-baths could be reserved. Note that the towels in the rooms do not have to be taken to these baths since supplies are located there. Pictures may not be taken in any of the baths. The room had guest “yukata” and haori(warm vests) and also another type of top/slacks set which may be worn throughout the hotel. (Note that you might ask in advance about the size ranges of these items). “Tabi” socks were provided for free in our room, and free, packaged small bath towels and amenities were provided for each of us. Two free bottles of water were provided, but items stored in the mini-bar refrigerator need to be paid for upon checkout (as explained by the room attendant upon checking in). There was a nice free selection of tea and coffee in the room, with a nice cup of Japanese tea and a complimentary piece of nutty chocolate upon while being oriented to the room and the layout of the hotel. The level of our room included a free “Taiko” show in the evening (2 shows each night), with ours starting at 8:45pm(the second one). Guests may choose either Japanese or western-style meals. We chose Japanese for both sittings but preferred the quality of the breakast meal, which was very tasty.

I stayed at the Kogetsu for 2 nights in May and it was an unforgettable experience. Every detail was beautiful and thoughtful. I booked rather late and was not able to book the same room, so the first night I stayed in a Standard Western Style twin w open-air bath; and the second night in a Standard Japanese Modern w open-air bath (Triple). Both were on the 3rd (of 5) floors and both had stunning views of Mt Fuji. Both incorporated both Japanese and Western style. The first room had wood floors throughout and half-shoji screen doors so you could separate the bedroom and dining areas. It also had a small walk-in closet. The outdoor onsen was quite large (could easily fit 4 adults) and the patio was wider than in the Triple room. I posted pics of the Standard Western Style Twin and will post the pics of the Triple separately. In contrast the Triple room was larger and there was a gorgeous daybed (which becomes the 3rd bed) with windows on either side overlooking Mt Fuji. The onsen was a bit smaller (could easily fit 2 adults). The bedroom was carpeted, dining area had tatami-style mats, and hallway had wood floors. There was a wardrobe rather than walk-in closet in this room. Both rooms had a wet area for washing up before the onsen, a separate powder room, and separate toilet room. Honestly, you can’t go wrong - both rooms were gorgeous. I felt lucky to be here. One thing to note is that there is a boat launch beside the ryokan, so my open-air onsen on 3rd floor was not super private (there’s a screen to pull down if you want privacy, but it obscures the view). The 4th/5th floors would have more feeling of privacy. The kaiseki meals were beautifully displayed and delicious. The 2 nights’ menus were different but followed a similar (but not identical) format: 1) Aperitif, 2) Seasonal appetizers, 3) Soup, 4) Sashimi, 5) Main course (hot), 6) Steamed fish, 7) Grilled fish, 8) Palette cleanser, 9) simmered dish, 10) rice dish, and 11) dessert. My nakai, Fumiko-san, was lovely - friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. Breakfast was also included - it was half- buffet, with an elegant bento box with appetizers and tamago. It also included delicious tempura, made to order and delivered to your table. The hotel has a happy hour from 2:30-6:30 where a limited selection of tea, coffee, nonalcoholic drinks, beer and wine are free. You can enjoy them on the gorgeous terrace overlooking Mt Fuji with your feet soaking in the footpath (just not in your room). Lastly there are shuttles every morning to Kawaguchiko Station or any of the tourist sights on the way, and the hotel will send a shuttle to pick you up when you are ready to come back. The location of this ryokan could not be better - close to some great museums and on the North shore of the lake, which has the best views (and away from the touristy South shore).

This was one of the nicest trips i’ve had in Japan so far. I got a room that had a view of Mount Fuji, was amazing to look at in the morning. The hotel has an old style which has been well preserved and is relatively clean, and a nice bathhouse with a small outdoor hotspring area with a direct view of Fujisan. There is nature all around in the form of hiking trails in the surrounding forests, Yamanakako lake, etc. The food was nice. I was lucky to view a very beautiful sunset while staying here!

- Kebersihan agak teruk, terutamanya kerana 1. Pengering rambut di tandas penuh dengan habuk dan tidak boleh digunakan 2. Terdapat juga banyak habuk pada kabinet TV dan panel penghawa dingin. - Persekitaran dalaman: Kecuali untuk kebersihan, semuanya hebat Contohnya, biliknya sangat besar, jauh lebih besar daripada hotel di Tokyo, dan beg pakaian boleh dibuka hahaha. Terdapat kabinet kasut di pintu masuk bilik dan bilik mandi di sebelahnya. Kawasan utama adalah tatami Katil, TV dan meja kopi kecil di atas tatami, yang sangat unik saya dan suami tidak menghidu bau yang pelik. - Persekitaran luar: Pemandangan tasik sangat bagus! Jika anda ingin melihat pemandangan gunung, anda tidak perlu menempah bilik pemandangan gunung, kerana terdapat tingkap besar di tangga untuk mengambil gambar Gunung Fuji🗻 - Perkhidmatan ini sangat baik Adik-adik Taiwan di kaunter penerimaan tetamu membantu mendaftar masuk, memperkenalkan restoran dan kemudahan rekreasi di sekeliling secara terperinci, dan juga memberikan peta yang comel dan praktikal. - Kemudahannya agak lama, tetapi tandas adalah TOTO pintar dan mempunyai semua yang diperlukan. - Terdapat kolam air panas percuma di tingkat pertama Terdapat kolam air panas awam yang berasingan untuk lelaki dan wanita. hebat!

Marriott staff welcomed us at the curb side. Check in was painless and soon we were off to our room. In room hot springs was a pleasant touch. The room was spacious and very comfortable. Even the Japanese pillows were soft and cozy. The food was top notch and catered to every taste. We opted for the dinner package—well worth the money. After dinner we rang for a late night massage…should have rethought that one. Asked for two therapist and got one. She had no clue what a massage was! Seriously!!! She literally poked at me with her finger tips. The pushed my head agains the pillow for ten minutes. Finally was had enough and she was dismissed with her full pay. Noted, she was not affiliated with the hotel, she was merely the lady they called. Please never call her again! Loved the hotel and the view. A must for anyone wanting a quiet getaway.
