    Mt Fuji is only visible about 30% of the time. Not the hotel’s fault. It did appear briefly around sunset on the first day to give us a sample of her location and majesty. It was a bit disappointing to have the view impacted by the steel pillar in the middle of our balcony (to hold up the big hotel name sign). See main hotel photo. There are only two rooms on offer with a view from a balcony, the rest have a view from the smaller box windows. Also the view includes a set of overhead power lines right across the view (not shown in their hero photo). This impacts your photos but not your admiration for this mountain. I was also a bit miffed by having to sort out loading and unloading in the rain near the front door to find, from the window of our standard room (third night) that there are covered parking spaces at the side of the hotel. Our corner standard room was a good size but we had to sleep with both the window shutters closed on both due to the hotel’s spotlights (on the hotel).

    We chose it as a base to explore the area. Great if you have a car. We chose to pay the premium for the balcony room with the outside bath (spa) as if offered a (chance of) viewing Mt Fuji. This was for the first two nights back in Japan after a 6-year absence after our last trip. Covid etc. We then checked out and checked into a standard room (no balcony, no spa). The standard room was good with a table we could sit at facing each other instead of many hotels.

    The staff could not communicate in English well causing some inconvenience. At the time of check in, there was some confusion from the staff (which I did not know what) with my reservation so it took quite a while. However, I realized they tried their best to help and I appreciated it. I think every room was supposed to see a panoramic view of Fuji. However, it was just unfortunate, there were some trees near my room's window so I could not see Fuji well. (But for my friend's room, the view of Fuji was excellent)

    The hotel looked pretty old from the outside but inside, the room was beatiful, very spacious, comfort and full of facilities including fancy bath tub with a wall TV, pajamas, hair dryer, and curling iron, this was so impressive, which I have never seen in any hotel before!

    Little out of the way BUT only an issue in the evening as bus stops just a few minutes walk and the buses have wheelchair spaces. Taxis cheap from outside the station in Gotemba but you'll have to transfer out of your chair

    The staff at the hotel are exceptionally helpful and really friendly. I am a wheelchair user and the accessible room is actually accessible and the biggest I've stayed at in Japan.

    It wasn’t a ‘didn’t like’ but just note that staff had very limited English (which is fine but just be aware if you are an English speaking traveller). A convenience store about 700m away but in the freezing cold - too far to walk. Staff did call us a taxi. Need to get off bus at Ninooka. The hotel is very obvious from the road!

    Huge rooms. Our room had a spa, a sauna and a massage chair! Very quiet. View of Fuji.

    The place is pretty run down and most of the facilities like onsen and pool table are not available. You will need to drive out to get to any food or convienet stores.

    The room was big with 2 double beds and can accommodate 4 people, but on the website only takes 2 per 6. We booked 2 rooms for 4 pax, which we only used one room. The entrance of the hotel is facing Mt Fuji and our room also has a clear view of Mt Fuji.
