It's a great opportunity for us to experience a traditional Japanese futon night! The room is very small but clean and neat. The best part is we can see Mt. Fuji out of the window. Nothing beats enjoying the view first thing in the morning while sipping Japanese green tea provided by the Inn. Though the facilities are shared, they are extremely clean. A quick dip in the indoor onsen before bed. Perfect for one night.

It is located right in front of Kawaguchiko Station, it is very convenient transportation wise. Lots of food to eat around the area and places to shop. The room was small but enough for two people and had a great view of Mt. Fuji. The onsen was very relaxing and in the morning you can also have a great view. Staff was very welcoming and let us keep our luggage there after check out while we traveled around Lake Kawaguchiko. Definitely recommend!

Old traditional style Japanese guesthouse. Everything is old but fairly clean, although bathrooms could be much better. The duvet was warm and cosy but mattress on floor was thin and uncomfortable. Very basic amenities given for the price. It’s a high tourist town and they capitalise on this. The onsen was ok, but a bit run down. The convenience to the station and bus was the best part, especially if you’re looking to climb Mt Fuji. I’m sure there are better places to stay close by.

The property itself is nothing special, but the owners are kind and there is a nice bath house to cool off in (it is shared so not a lot of privacy). The bathrooms are shared as well.

Japanese style, so you sleep on the floor with a cushion. But they have cute tea sets and nice yukatas. And the biggest plus is of course the fact that it's right across the street from the train station and the bus station that takes you directly to Mount Fuji, hence the reason of my stay.

Comfortable, Great location, Onsen is Magic.

We spent 3 days in Kawaguchiko 5-8 May to view Mt Fuji, walk around Lake Kawaguchiko & visit Fuji-Q Highland Amusement Park. The Kawaguchiko Station Inn is directly opposite of the Railway station at the end of the Fujikyuko Line & a Bus Station, so there are plenty of transport options in & out of the area, and locally. The Inn has Japanese-style guest rooms, shared bathrooms, including a wonderful Onsen with views of Mt Fuji from the bathtub. The Inn is managed well & offers a slice of Japanese culture that can be savoured & enjoyed in an overnight stay or for a few days. The location is perfect to visit local attractions by foot or bus...and perfect to get to & from with luggage. Note, there is no lift in the building, but the staff will help with luggage, if asked...or they'll probably offer. Japanese people do customer service very well, especially if you have a go at talking to them in their language (regardless how limited it maybe). Recommend using the Onsen each morning after you roll out of bed (mattress on floor) to get yourself going. Certainly helped me get into each day.

Average Inn in good location

Room is quite small but clean though have some kind of old wood smell. Extremely good view of Mount Fuji outside window. Shared bath and toilet make it really inconvenient for families. Also, while toilets for male and female are separated, the entry and common hand wash area is joint... floor and area around basin often wet.
Best part of the hotel is the location. Right next to train and bus stops.

Not my Cup of Tea

Understand that the hotel has done very well in cleaning most area, but the slipper they provided are used by all guest once they walk in the hotel. The shoes changing area is very stink due to all guest took off their shoes there. And it made me feel very uncomfortable especially using the hotel slipper which left by previous guest and didn't sterilize. Slipper only in one size, and it was oversize for me, very hard to handle walking downstair to basement kitchen or upstair to top floor bathroom.

Awesome stay at Mt. Fuji

The hostel is very near Kawaguchiko Station which made everything easier for my family. It is also where all buses within and outside the area go to pick up and drop off passengers. Mt. Fuji can also be seen once you step out of the hostel. Please take note that the hostel is not good for PWD since it only has stairs to go up the rooms, bathroom and the toilet.

The hospitality was exceedingly exceptional. We arrived early and was able to store our bags at the hotel. By the time we checked in, our bags had already been brought upstairs and placed in our room. We were also able to store our bags there after check-out since our busdidnt leave until late at night.

Check-in was swift and easy. The clerk spoke English very very well. Our room was clean and futon mattress were comfortable. The baths upstairs had amazing views of Mt. Fuji and we're clean.

Overall, we would stay here again.

Perfect, efficient for no-nonsense Fuji visitors!

Ideal place for travelers looking to stop at Fuji for a day or two. I was with two friends, planning to climb Fuji and depart the next day, and this had everything we needed. Literally across the street from the train station & bus for 5th station. Traditional Japanese style - floor mats and shared bathroom, so it is not for those who require western style luxury. However, for the backpackers, A+. They will hold your luggage at the counter while you climb, even after checkout. Convenience store is also close. Zero complaints.

Room is clean but lot of traffic noise. If you can choose room at the other side may avoid this. Reception staff is friendly and speak English.

It’s very convenient because it’s just across the road from the Kawaguchiko station. There are 7/11 and Lawson, convenience store, 30 sec away which have food, drinks and seats for you to consume. The hotel room looks a bit scary to a person that scare of ghost like me...lol over is good. Love how I don’t have to wake up very early in the morning to go and catch a sightseeing bus around Kawaguchiko.

Very close to the station with a comfortable futon

It's literally right across from the train and bus station so it's extremely convenient. However, the shared washroom is inconvenient since there is no towels or paper towels for you to dry your hands after you wash them. You will have to bring the bath towel they gave you at check in. The room is extremely small but futons in the room was pretty comfortable. Our room actually had a Mount Fuji view so that was a bonus.

Great location and really friendly staff

Prime location, right across the train station. Stayed in the dorm and it was quite comfortable. Showers are on the top floor, you could choose private shower if you don't feel like sharing the bath with strangers in the onsen style bathroom (where you could see Mt Fuji in the morning). Heard that the Japanese style breakfast is quite nice (didn't try myself). Staff were really friendly and could understand basic English quite well. Even got a lovely postcard at the end of my stay (but was so stupid I lost it on my way catching the train..)! Would definitely stay here again if I came to Kawaguchiko again.

Great Location and Staff.

The location and price are unbeatable. Its just across the street from the train station and taxi area. I took a 4 minutes taxi ride to the other side of Lake Kawaguchiko to get some footage of Fuji Mountain, which was looking awesome that day. You can also see the mountain standing outside the hotel. The staff are extremely nice and helpful...just what I expect from Japanese. I definitely can stay here again.

Delightful Japanese Inn

We came to Kawaguchiko with the sole intent of climbing Mount Fuji. The Kawaguchiko Station Inn was perfect for this. Located right across from the bus station we used to come from Haneda airport. It is also the same station that would take us to Fuji-Subaru 5th Station the next morning. The Inn itself is very traditional with futon mattresses, hot water and tea set in each room, and a shared communal bathroom on each floor. The staff was incredibly friendly and nice, sharing helpful information about the mountain's weather conditions and bus times. There are many fun local restaurants in the area. We chose to have the simple, but adequate, western breakfast at the Inn. The Japanese breakfast looked wonderful if you are so inclined. We would easily stay here again if we returned to Kawaguchiko!

Friendly and Convenient Place to Stay

I highly recommend this hotel for any travelers who wish to climb the Fuji mountain (but do not want to book a hotel while they're away). The hotel itself isn't overly luxurious however the service was wonderful. It's very well located, right across the street of the bus station. If you don't open your window, noise is minimal. The room is a traditional Japanese style room so it's a bit small (so if you have large luggages you might not have much space). Keep in mind that there is no elevator. If you're sore from your hike, you will still have to climb the stairs. Their bath on the top floor has a beautiful view of the Fuji mountain (if the weather permits). The Japanese style breakfast which requires reservation 24 hours in advance (with additional charge) was very delicious (grilled salmon with small pickled dishes on the side). The owner is very kind and provided very good insight for our hike before we left. He also spoke English very well so communication was clear.

Convenient hotel, opposite the station

Good location, with reasonable rates.
Staff spoke limited English but enough for check-in and check-out
Facilities available to leave luggage for a few hours after check-out
Shared bathroom wasn't sparkling, but acceptably clean.
Walls were a bit thin and didn't insulate noise well, however there's a 11:30pm noise curfew so it goes silent after that time.
Vending machines located within the hotel were convenient, and a 7-11 is just down the street if you need anything.

Steps from the station with friendly staff

I'm very impressed with the kindness and hospitality shown by the staff. My sister wasn't feeling feel and they got us a room early and medicine for her. The hotel is steps from the station and extremely clean. The rooms are traditional Japanese style, so you'll be able to hear your neighbors and traffic so bring ear plugs! Our room had an amazing view of Mt Fuji, we'd stay again if we're ever back.

Very friendly and neat hotel with a great view

We arrived early but were able to leave the luggage with the hotel. The luggage was transported to the room by the time we're done sightseeing. The view was great. Open the window and Mt Fuji is there if you get one of the front side rooms. You also get to see it from the hot tub rooms. It's across street from the train/bus station and that's another big plus for convenience.

the location is perfect, just right next to the Station. It is a perfect choice if you decided to go Kawaguchiko spontaneously, stay a night for few hours, then go to see the sunrise of Mount Fuji. This is exactly what I did. You can also rent a bicycle nearby, the shop open at 6am, so you can grab a bicycle and get to the lakeside to see the sunrise in the morning. Basically, all the major spots would close at around 6pm, so it will be good if you arrive at around 8, 9pm, and then have few hours of sleep, get up at around 4, 5am, and spend the whole day there, then leave at the evening. For this price, please dont expect things to be like a 5-star hotel.

Good location and price.

Hassle free check in. Staff was polite and could converse in english. Paid additional 750 yen per pax for japanese breakfast. Free coffee, tea and hot water are provided in the basement level.

Room is comfortable for 3 pax. There is no attached bathroom in the room. Need to use the shared toilet that is available on each floor and public/private bathroom on the 4th floor.

There was a strong smell when we entered the room. We kept the window open throughout our stay to ventilate the room.

Overall, will recommend this place to those looking for a budget stay with close proximity to the train/bus station.

This place is a treasure!

I feel like I found a real treasure in this hotel. You can have a private, Japanese style room for a reasonable price, or stay in a dorm style room very inexpensively. The owner, Mr. Furooka, was very helpful with every question or request I had.

Traditional Japanese Inn next to Station

The inn is traditional Japanese (tatami mats, futons) with shared bathrooms, baths (1 male and 1 female), and showers (2). The room feels super spacious and the futons aren't bad. Hot water is prepared on check-in for some complimentary tea. They also have a lounge that offers free coffee and tea and a restaurant on the first floor.

We hiked Mt. Fuji and didn't realize that so many nearby areas (including the inn) offer luggage storage. Save yourself some money if you plan on staying overnight on Fuji by checking out on that day and storing your luggage (rather than wasting the money for a night you won't be there); the proprietor will have your luggage tagged and stored for you to retrieve when you come back from Fuji, so no worries there if you make the same mistake we did!

Nice and cheap stay

I got the dormitory and expected it to be run down and mesy, but upon arriving and checking in, it was actually very comfortable and the baths werer onsen style with private shower rooms if you prefer it. Overlooking mount Fuji, taking a bath was actually very enjoyable. As I was going to climb mount fuji, the staff were very friendly and gave lots of advice like weather condition, how many huts are open where to take the bus and things like that. It was a great expeirence overall
