Hotels With Gym in Yamanashi Prefecture, Japan

A short drive from Lake Yamanaka, we checked into here for the night—mainly because we wanted to explore the area and try the region’s famous Hōtō noodles. We chose a traditional Japanese futon room for the experience. That meant laying out our own beds—slightly clumsy, a bit of trial and error, and a lot of laughing when we realised there’s no “redo” once everything’s set. The weather had a chill to it, so the onsen became the highlight. Stepping into the hot water while the cold air lingered outside—it slowed everything down in a way you don’t realise you need. Nothing extravagant, nothing overly planned. Just the four of us, figuring things out as we went. Looking back, it wasn’t the hotel or even the lake—it was those small, unpolished moments that made the night feel complete.

My stay here was truly memorable. The room was traditionally Japanese and very comfortable. The host was always kind, helpful, and quick to respond whenever I needed anything. Bicycles were freely available for guests, which made it easy and enjoyable to explore the area, I was able to cycle around the lake in just a few hours, and the views were absolutely stunning. If you’re feeling motivated, I highly recommend waking up before sunrise and biking about 20 minutes to the Chureito Pagoda. Watching the sun rise behind Mount Fuji from there is a breathtaking and unforgettable experience. This stay will remain one of the most touching and special memories of my time in Japan.

The views are unbeatable, and the environment is beautiful. We booked the private onsen on the rooftop, which was perfect for photos! I highly recommend trying their dinner, especially the Wagyu hot pot – it was delicious! 😋

Very nice hotel with friendly staff and beautiful view. Highly recommended!

The room exceeded my expectations. The name made me think it was a rather old hotel, but it's actually quite new. The lobby on the first floor has a large area suitable for working or meeting guests. The breakfast was good. The room was clean and tidy. The blankets were comfortable. I would stay there again.
