Loved having free shuttle from train station. Staff extremely friendly and welcoming. Traditional ryokan and kaiseki dinner in room was amazing! Breakfast was very good. Our room overlooked mt Fuji but lake view would be just as beautiful I am sure.

10/10 Ryokan!

First time visiting a Ryokan and I will definitely return! Everybody was friendly, the service from all the staff was above and beyond and the rooms were all super clean, even if it wasn't a modern hotel. All the onsens were well maintained and they switch up the male/ female onsens daily so everyone gets to try them. My favourite was the 5th floor outdoor onsen, while we also booked a room with a view of Mt Fuji and a personal onsen which was super handy as we only saw Mt Fuji at sunrise during our trip so we did not have to leave our rooms at dawn. Overall 10/10!

Kaiseki meals were great! It is a must try if you stay here. I would suggest to contact the property to request an upgrade (with not too expensive extra pay) before your stay. It is well worthy it. Hot spring experience is also good but for outsider with bigger body build, the XL size yukata is kind of small. They should prepare a few 2XL or 3XL for foreign visitors
