The in-room decor hasn't been updated since it was built in 1985 but that seems to be its charm. Clean rooms, and for our family of four, we had two beds, and two couches for the kids. They helped arrange for our luggage to be sent to our next hotel after a fuji climb. They leant us umbrellas when it dumped rain. Included breakfast was adequate. Bathrobes and slippers available. Excellent location, for proximity to the bus/train station.

Firstly, i want to state that we opted to stay at this hotel for one reason , that it’s across from the train station and to facilitate our shopping at Gotemba outlet. For that reason alone, this hotel serves its purpose. …

I had a horrible / terrible experience in this hotel, we booked supposedly 2nights but we checkout the next day. Not comfortable with the place, its pretty old and not well maintained. I guess the only nice about this hotel is there location and Mt Fuji view. But if i were to ask, i will never go back to this hotel.

Stayed for a night for my fuji climb. Stayed in a "gold cabin" and it was fine. You get what you pay for. Perfect temperature and private shower. Lobby will store your bags for 24hr with your stay. Resturants around the area are pretty expensive and not that good.

The location is close to the train station and bus terminal. Hotel service was amazing and the staff were very friendly. The hotel also provides free dinner and a breakfast buffet. All in all, a great place to stay with its relatively cheap price.
