Traditional Japanese style hotel with great lake view
Pros:

Extremely friendly staff, traditional Japanese hotel, great view of the lake, traditional Japanese breakfast, easy shuttle from and to the Kawaguchiko train station

Not worth the money. If they want ti charge that expensive they should renovate the room.
Pros:

Hotel looks nice from outside.

Cons:

The room is extremely outdated, and the furniture is in very poor condition. The sofa is not usable, and everything looks old and dirty.

в округе оказалось достаточно много приятных на вид отелей. присмотритесь)
Pros:

Надо быть готовым к номеру "в японсокм стиле". это прямо матрасик на полу, но для одной ночи вполне сгодится. На рецепции есть все необходимые одноразовые аксессуары.
Вид на Фудзи есть из окон онсена + из обсерватории на самом верху здания.
Завтрак милый.

Cons:

В номере были только подушки из пера/пуха, а у меня аллергия. на рецепции в 22:30 не было никого чтобы попросить замену.
Завтрак совсем не европейский, надо быть готовым варить сам себе рамен с утра)
В раковинах в онсене было грязно.
