HOSHINOYA Fuji

10/10 Excellent
"We absolutely loved our stay at Hoshinoya Fuji. From start to finish the experience was amazing, with incredible staff and amenities. Our taxi dropped us to the main reception area where we checked in, selected backpacks for our stay (containing useful gear for hiking and being in the outdoors!) and then were driven up to our room. You can call anytime for a car to take you from the main property back down to the reception area (or vice versa) so whether you wanted to be fully immersed or able to explore the area, you could. The room itself was spacious, light and clean with a gorgeous huge window to hopefully view Fuji, as well as a balcony with table, fire and sofa. The hotel has many options for activities and food, over our stay we enjoyed the music and bonfire session, canoeing on the lake, breakfast on our balcony (which was a particular standout!) and dinner at the restaurant. Every experience was incredible, and we really felt so immersed in the outdoors. Our stay was two nights and we opted to go out and explore around the area as well as enjoy the hotel amenities, but I feel you could easily spend three or four days purely on the hotel grounds and enjoying all they have to offer. We were lucky enough to get two clear days of visibility of Fuji which made the stay even more perfect, but we would’ve still loved our stay based on the property alone. We would encourage anyone to stay here if your itinerary allows!"

10/10 Excellent
"Pickup from bus station was very welcome. Our room was large and lovely and we had a marvellous view over the lake. On our final day we had fabulous views from the fire exit and from the rooftop observatory to Mt Fuji which was magical. The onsen was a lovely experience, exceptionally clean and relaxing, with comfortable yukata (robes) provided. The full breakfast was massive and delicious, again with lovely views of lake. We enjoyed playing pool in the games room, and the laundry under the hotel was convenient. The library was also a nice space. Lots of local food options, and convenient to attractions like Kubota Itchiku Art Museum (kiminos). Beds comfortable. Only minor thing that might have made the stay more comfortable would be having a bench to put luggage on as it is not allowed in the bedroom/ tatami area. Otherwise, perfect. Staff very welcoming and friendly and a lift back to bus station at the end of our stay as well."

Also didn’t like that their TV only had Japanese channels. All other hotels had the ability for me to use YouTube or Amazon. They need to upgrade ASAP."
