It is a beautiful hotel, the room was spacious with excellent lake view, wonderful service. I booked a room with breakfast. However, they also included complimentary afternoon tea from 2pm to 5 pm. And following with cocktail time from 5pm to 7pm. (Even I do not drink alcohol) Which is an amazing and surprising service to me. The food was so great that I did not need to spend money eating dinner. The environment was amazing, and I enjoyed the hot spring every night or early in the morning. It located up the hill away from the tourist crowed. It felt like I was in another world. If you did not want to walk the hill, the texi is only 600 yen (US $4). We enjoyed ourselves very much.

Everything was great but a slope needed to climb to get in the hotel. The private bath was wonderful with view of kawaguchiko which you can see in the room as well. The iced beer and some snacks were Recommended during the private bath.

Rakuyu is a beautiful hotel with amazing views. The hospitality is great, the rooms are big, cosy and comfortable. The breakfast spread while relatively small, serves quality food. The public bath is clean and a must-try. Only thing to note is that it's quite a steep walk to the hotel. Other than that, our stay was fabulous!

The hotel is located on a high ground, without a private car it will be hassle to carry the luggages up there. I paid a room for ¥87,720 per night (accommodate 4 persons) wishing to have a spacious and comfortable room. The room I had was simply a double room with 2 futons. If only had I knew, I'd have booked 2 double rooms instead so you don't have to be overcrowded in one room. Breakfast and food in the lounge was limited. No refills when they run out, so you should be the first comer for that.

The hotel is a once a lifetime experience. The hotel is located on top of a steep hill next to the tourist site Ropeway. If you miss the shuttle bus and arrive at night, the walk up the hill can be physically demanding especially during winter with tree barks scattered and no lighting. But after we survive the physical journey, the hotel is really a must visit gem. The view from the room is amazing. Every room faces the lake. The room is traditional Japanese room with nice tatami mats and buckwheat quality pillow. The highlight has to be the breakfast and the onsen. The breakfast and dinner need to be reserved in advance (must include breakfast when you book the room). Food is fresh and chef quality. The onsen faces the lake so is really special experience. You can also visit the ropeway in the morning. Service is also excellent. The team is responsive and also helped us order dinner as there are no food nearby. Overall this is a must visit hotel for anyone who wants authentic Japanese experience and next to the lake. The breakfast and onsen is also a must when you are there.

Quite a bit of walk from kawaguchiko station and the slope up is very steep (maybe a 45 degrees incline). Quite dark too at night. Recommend to drive, otherwise be prepared for a workout just to get up. But the lake view from the room is great and it’s close to the attractions by the lake

The hotel environment is super good, you can see a very beautiful lake view. There is afternoon tea from 3 to 5 pm on the day of check-in, and the snacks are superb. There will be a cocktail reception from 5 to 7 p.m. The next morning we had Japanese and Western breakfast, which was super delicious! In addition, the hotel's hot spring is also great. The public hot spring we went to had almost no people soaking in it. It was very comfortable to soak once in the evening and once in the morning before having breakfast. There is a shuttle bus for check-in and check-out. The only drawback may be that the hotel is halfway up the mountain. Every time I go out to play and come back, I have to go through a very steep mountain road, which is too tiring🥲

The decoration is very new, the style is unique, free breakfast and dinner, the lake and mountain views outside the window are as beautiful as a flower roll when you wake up in the morning!

The hotel is very good. It is at the foot of Tianshang Mountain. There is a road on the left side of the hotel that you can walk up the mountain. Unfortunately, the ropeway up the mountain was under major repairs, so we walked up the mountain. There are steps along the way, so it is not strenuous to go up the mountain. You can see the panoramic view of Mount Fuji from the mountain. It is very windy and cold, but it is worth it. The hotel has a large hot spring and the room also has a private hot spring. It is very pleasant to soak in the private hot spring and look at Hanoi Lake. The only drawback is that there is a slope to the hotel. It is a bit tiring to drag the luggage to the hotel. In addition to breakfast, the hotel has no restaurant, and you have to "go down the hill" to eat. The entire Hanoi Lake is a small town with a transportation distribution center. It is best to buy tickets for the bus when leaving in advance. There are buses from Hanoi Lake to Shanshang Lake. If you stay for a few days, you can go and have a look.

Friends are full of praise. The hotel room is very large, the nearby scenery is beautiful, and the food provided in the hotel lounge is exquisite. Although the hotel room price is a bit expensive, it is definitely worth it. I believe it is the most beautiful hotel near Lake Kawaguchi.

The hotel is located halfway up the mountain, in traditional Japanese style, with nice views and a quiet environment. You have to climb a small slope to get to the hotel, so it is recommended not to walk with a suitcase. The hotel has a shuttle bus, which needs to be booked in advance.

The service is pretty good. The hotel has a shuttle bus every half an hour. There is also a buffet Japanese dinner from 5 to 7 pm. You can eat enough if you go early. There are many foreign tourists.
