Yamanashi 3 Stars Hotels

"Stayed in western style room. The smell of smoke was very apparent and the rooms needed some updating but were adequate. The main plus was the spectator early morning and late evening clear views of mount Fuji."

"Their staff accommodated our needs to perfection "

"A very thoughtful set up and breakfast is way better than how they advertised it. Very comfortable bed and pillows. Free shuttle to Kawaguchigo station but only 20 min walk if you want to do it. A 7 min walk to a grocery stores which open kind of late at 9am. Not too many restaurants around so plan accordingly. "

"Gorgeous view, amazing spa and wonderful staff!!"

"We stayed 2 nights in a special queen room with a balcony and view of Fujisan. We were on the 3rd of 4 floors. We did a 1 day climb of Mt. Fuji and this room was our home base. We were able to walk about 18 minutes to and from Kawaguchiko Station to catch the Fujikyu bus for 5th Station of the Yoshida trail easily. It is a downhill walk to the station. A little harder to walk back from the station after climbing Fuji but very doable. Taxis are plentiful at the station if you rrally need one. The Room at Noborisaka was fantastic. The view was magnificent from my bed, from my balcony and even feom my bathtub. The small conveniences they stock in your room were so handy. Checkin was a breeze... Just walked up, gave our last name, and they had the room keys ready and waiting for us. Lots of space, lots of drawers, a bathroom that had the luxuries of Japan as well as the familar layout of bathrooms back in the states. My extremely tall husband appreciated the bathroom space. The view seemed better than some of the other higher priced hotels around. We enjoyed the Restaurant across the street called "871" for dinner both nights. Complaints: The refrigerator needs a deep cleaning. I was not pleased with the state of its freezer. Check out is 10am which is 1 hour too early and hard on people who just climbed a mountain. Lastly, we couldnt access Youtube or Netflix on the TV. Dated software was a pain so we just gave up and watched the mountain."
