Visited with my family recently. It’s a family owned property, excellent service and very friendly staff.
Owners went above and beyond at every opportunity, including dropping 7 of us with luggage at nearby bus stop. Breakfast was yummy and thank you for accommodating our vegetarian request!!
Enjoyed Ryokan with traditional night wear too !
We would highly recommend this wonderful place at foothills in Mt. Fuji with Lake Yamanakako lake in walkable distance.

We decided to try a Ryokan for 1 night. Keep in mind this is a rating for Ryokan.
Room: The description shows shared baths, but our room had a toilet and sink. The showers are shared and are located with the bath (onsens) and there are 2 for 5 rooms. There is no hot water in the room sinks. We were there during winter and the toilet/sink area and the sitting areas get too cold. The mini-split can't keep up with keeping the room warm unless you close off those rooms. The futons are very thin so if you have a bad back, you will not sleep well. They also enter your room to set up the futons during dinner so keep in mind, this level of service is common and normal I would presume.

Meals: I wouldn't recommend staying at a Ryokan unless you did the half board. The meals are amazing. A lot you will not like, but its traditional Japanese. The service during dinner was the best we've had.

Conclusion - the meal and service at this hotel greatly overshadows the rooms, which to be honest should not be compared to a 4 star hotel. Great experience for 1 night.

Super fun place, very traditional. We had some trouble finding it as the provided address wasn't exact. The manager spoke some English and was very helpful. We had to postpone our hike to mount Fuji because of a storm, but the manager offered to drive us to a view point after the weather cleared up. He also offered to book us a shuttle to our next destination. The included half-board was great! Awesome place in a small little town.

allergy friendly and amazing

Beyond amazing! The owner doesn't speak much English, but he went out of his way to make our stay amazing. We arrived a little outside the check-in hours, but they stayed up for us and kept one of the large baths open so we could wash up in the onsen-like bath before bed (it's customary to shower/bathe before bed and the owners stay up to close-up the large bath/onsen at night. So it was really going above and beyond to keep the bath running for us when we came in so late). I also have wheat, dairy, and fish allergies. They were able to accommodate these and made an amazing breakfast! I wish I stayed longer b/c the food was divine! They also let me feed the koi fish and took us on a short tour for the best views of Mt Fuji. It's an older ryokan so the room has a tatami smell which is common, but some foreigners might not expect. But I very highly recommend staying here!! They are so kind and helpful and the accommodations were great!!

The inn is located conveniently to the lake and bus station.

The hotel is ran by a family and they are the most welcoming host ever! After hearing that we didn’t have a car, they offered to drive us around the lake Yamanaka and offered to take photos for my family with Mount Fuji at different angles. The food is also amazing! The hotel has a gorgeous zen garden with beautiful koi and you can feed them. Additionally, location is great: 2 mins walk from a major bus station, 3 mins to the lake.

Amazing FOOD!

we came here on a rainy day so couldn't do much sightseeing around Mt Fuji, but the lake was beautiful and the hotel was in a very good location. The highlight of our trip became the dinner and breakfast served by the owner of the ryokan. The food was absolutely amazing, especially if you enjoy japanese food. Everything was so balanced.

The staff here are amazing! Incredible hospitality. They went way out of their way to make me feel welcome and comfortable. The hotel itself is somewhat basic, but that gives it something of a rustic charm. As long as you don't mind the fact that there is no hot water in the room, you will enjoy its quiet comfort. You will also enjoy its fantastically beautiful traditional Japanese garden. The ofuro is just okay; not very big, and there is no roten-buro.

I must say that Teiensaryo Yamanakako remains one of my best memories of my trip to Japan. I was intrigued and won over by the many reviews about the family’s kindness and warm attitude, so I decided to book this ryokan for my stay near Mount Fuji. (I also just really love pretty gardens, and koi fishes and theirs were truly amazing.) I can confirm that not a single one of the compliments directed towards the family owning this pretty ryokan was lying. They were without a doubt the kindest, most welcoming, and most accommodating people I’ve met throughout my whole 3 weeks stay in Japan. They took care to help me with anything I needed without my even having to ask for it, which I was rather embarrassed at times, though extremely touched. (My suitcases were pretty heavy!) They even drove all the way to the train station to give me back my jacket and pasmo card after I managed to forget them at their ryokan. Truly an incredible family! They really went out of their way to show me around and tell me about all the different aspects of Mount Fuji and the area for a one night stay. They were wonderful!

Their ryokan is a truly relaxing and beautiful ryokan. The garden view from the room makes for a very peaceful evening. Their cooking is also excellent! I’m allergic to a lot of seafoods, so there were dishes I could not enjoy, but they made me feel quite sorry for it, as every single dish I could eat was delicious. I would truly, and genuinely recommend this ryokan to everyone.

It's our family of 5 adults first and wonderful experience staying in one Japanese style room with half-board. The room fits 5 adults sleeping on tatami and come with attached toilet and small balcony which has partial view of Mt Fuji.

We were little concerned on shared bathroom but it turned out that we could lock it and use it for your own private use.
We enjoyed both the shower and onsen (not mineral water) facilities.

Dinner was impressive and wonderful. It comprises 8-10 attractive and delicious dishes with sashimi (small portion), grilled fish, hotpot with pork slices, tempura (prawn & veg) etc. Meal comes with coffee & tea. Host provided complimentary white wine and grape juice which was an added bonus.

The Japanese breakfast was also good with grilled salmon and veg.

Hotel has a small and well landscaped garden, a small waterfall and a pond fills with japanese carps created by the father of the host. He showed us photos of the different flowers that bloomed in the four seasons. He was very helpful to take our family photos in his garden.

Host can speak and understand English. Hence, no issue in communication.

Small negative:
The hotel has a total of 5 rooms and 2 shared bathrooms. On the day of our stay, we had to wait for 45-60 mins to use the bathroom as other guests occupied both the bathrooms longer than usual.

It is a very lovely homestay - super yummy food (they must have a chef), very kind and helpful host, very chill and comfortable environment. We feel welcomed and well looked after. My son enjoyed it so much, he fed the fishes in the garden multiple times, and also feed the swans at the lake, at the recommendation of the host grandpa!

It's not a luxury hotel, but definitely worth every penny you pay.
