Shuhokaku Kogetsu

I was fully unprepared for the level of service provided by this hotel. Although due to amenities, the hotel only had 3 stars, in service it is a 5 star hotel. Most hotels around Lake Kawaguchi have a road in between the hotel and Mt. Fuji, but this hotel sits directly on the lake. At sunrise I was able to walk right up to the lakeshore. There’s a decorative pool on the outdoor terrace that enables you to take a photo of Mt. Fuji reflected in the water. The highlight of this hotel is the free flow hour in the foot bath area (wine, beer, non-alcoholic drinks), the massage chairs, and the kaiseki dinner in the room with a view of Mt. Fuji. The onsen is great, but the outdoor onsen view is a bit too obstructed for my preference. The gift shop was a great touch as well. And I almost forgot to mention the breakfast buffet was absolutely amazing. Udon, soba, tempura, clams, sweet tofu, yogurt, many Japanese side dishes, as well as some western breakfast foods.

Excellent view. Everything great. All of us also enjoy this trip

A very nice hot spring resort with excellent view of Mt. Fuji

Exceptional room, view, and staffs !! Really recommend and would like to visit again.

Worth staying, all the rooms facing the Mount Fuji. Stunning view of Mount Fuji just in front of you. Room is newly renovated. Good staff service, and it is a baby friendly hotel

Amazing hotel ! Anytime I can see Mt. Fuji, feel very relaxing. The staff also very very nice. However, the breakfast and dinner still have a room for improvement !

Loved it. Location and views are breath taking. The diner was a good variety of Japanese dishes?

This was the best hotel we stayed in whilst in Japan. The food was excellent the views magnificent and the staff extremely helpful. We absolutely loved every minute here.

Fantastic view, can see Mt. Fuji clearly via the hotel window. Appreciate the hotel offering free upgrade to bigger room this time. Will stay here again. Thx.
