"If you are visiting Japan and want to step away from the city life for nature, then HOSHINOYA Fuji is a perfect spot. We glamped for a few days in September, and though Mt. Fuji did not make an appearance, the experience made up for it in full. There are so many activities to participate in, we cut wood, did breath work, made pizza, and enjoyed their amazing menu for all meals. It is a must stay if you come to Japan."

"Our stay at Konansou was absolutely incredible and one of the highlights of our trip to Japan! The accommodations were beautiful, the traditional Japanese baths were fantastic, and the views of Mt. Fuji were breathtaking. The food was truly next level. Every course was beautifully presented, creative, and delicious. It was honestly one of the most exciting and memorable dining experiences I've ever had! What really made the stay exceptional was the staff. Everyone was incredibly attentive, welcoming, and helpful in every way. The hospitality was outstanding. Konansou exceeded our expectations in every respect. An unforgettable experience that I cannot recommend highly enough. Worth every penny!"

"I liked that it provided free shuttle to the hotel from the bus/train station. The room was clean and staff were kind. They allowed us to hold our luggage at the lobby free of charge after check out so we can explore the area a bit more before heading out. They provided free coffee/drinks and late night snacks for their guests. The hot tub on the balcony overlooking mount fuji was beautiful! They had private onsen, but it didn’t look so clean and sanitary inside, so we just stayed at our balcony hot tub. The breakfast buffet’s food was mediocre, nothing impressive."

Wakakusa no Yado Maruei Ryokan

8/10 Good
"The kaiseki dinner in the private dining room was excellent and the hostess was a very kind. The breakfast was excellent too. But the hotel caters to large groups and children. The rooms have zero sound insulation so children running around or other upstairs guests moving furniture until midnight is very disruptive. Breakfast was served in the large group room , again with a lot of noisy children. While there were both women’s and men’s sides onsens (baths), the quality are not at all similar. For the 1st floor baths, one side has a natural stone traditional bath with a dry and wet sauna and a cold plunge tub. But the other side has a tiled rectangular swimming pool like bath with only a mist sauna. The 5th floor has one side with a view of Mt Fuji. The other side overlooks houses and the lake. The private baths were all booked by others in advance so we weren’t able to enjoy them. The in-room shower was very simple. While view of Mt Fuji is advertised, you can really only see it from the rooftop observation area. The hotel faces the wrong way, overlooking the lake. This is good for families and large groups. But not a good place for couples."
