Best Buffet Ever?

I absolutely loved the all-inclusive buffet! There were two huge dining rooms with a variety of Japanese and Western options. I particularly enjoyed the mix-your-own drinks station and the selection of desserts, including a cotton candy machine and soft cream. Breakfast and lunch were simply fabulous! It made me feel like a kid again.

Kid’s Play Paradise

The hotel’s kid’s play area was a highlight for my family. There were two separate play zones—one for little ones and another for 6-12 year-olds equipped with a giant climbing course. My kids had a blast running around and playing, which gave us adults some much-needed relaxation time.

Relaxing Onsen Experience

The onsen facilities were fantastic! I thoroughly enjoyed both the indoor and outdoor hot springs. The outdoor onsen, in particular, was a great way to relax and take in the surroundings. It was perfect for unwinding after a long day of exploring.

Spacious Comfort

I stayed in a Japanese-style room, which was very spacious and clean. The tatami mats felt brand new, and the additional sitting area provided great comfort. Waking up to a view of Mt. Fuji was the icing on the cake!

This hotel offers a unique countryside experience with a massive lobby and decent facilities. The kid’s play areas are fantastic, making it a family-friendly destination. However, the dining experience can feel chaotic during peak hours, especially with large tour groups. The buffet is extensive and enjoyable, but the room quality doesn't stand out and could use some improvement.

This classic Japanese hotel offers a unique experience with its authentic ambiance and wonderful service. The room was comfortable and tidy, although it felt a bit dated. The in-house hot springs and the opportunity to wear kimono added to the charm. However, the dining options were just average, and the hotel is a bit of a trek from Fuji Mountain, but worth the visit for a relaxing stay.

This hotel offers a very authentic Japanese experience with comfortable rooms and great amenities for relaxation. The hot spring and the chance to wear a kimono around the hotel were definite highlights. However, the location requires a long trip from Fuji Mountain, and the dining options, while varied, weren't particularly outstanding.

This hotel offers a large, inviting atmosphere, especially for families, thanks to the impressive kid's play areas and a buffet that truly stands out.
