Lake view in Hotel Koryu
A cost efficient way of staying at a Japanese style tatami accommodation. There were a lot of small touches such as complimentary japanese snacks and candy on arrival, free coffee, a manga club onsite (new), private bath that we opted in and booked before arrival (3000yen), cosy room with futon beds and lovely view of Lake Kawaguchi. Yukatas and slippers were provided. There was a free shuttle van that picked us up from Kawaguchiko station (from 3pm to 5pm - you go to the tourist centre from the station and tell them to call hotel directly). It was a 5 to 6 min drive. Convenient if you have lots of bags. Then in morning, 8am to 10am, you can go to station via the van (reservations are required due to limited seats). The hotel is a bit dated but its the style of it. Private bath on L3 (reservations required) was hot and relaxing! We also used the table tennis area and killed time there along with borrowing manga from the manga club. Souvenir shop near reception and with a vending machine plus free amenities. Coin laundry next to public bath on L1. There was a kids zone area too and karaoke (reservations required). Breakfast and dinner with a variety of western and japanese options and free unlimited local sake, beer and soft drinks etc and dessert. There are last entries for both meals so keep note. Stayed for 2 nights and same buffet food but they gave us special service like steak and salmon salad as a bonus.

This ryokan is a budget friendly hotel if you’re looking for an onsen experience without breaking the bank. The food (both breakfast and keiseki dinner) were pretty good and satisfying, but you must prebook at least a day in advance. Breakfast and dinner are served in the communal dining hall here instead of your room. The highlight of my stay here was enjoying the onsens at the hotel, one overlooks the lake/mountain (2nd fl) and another is outdoors with a small garden view (1st fl). The bath areas were really clean and well kept. The onsens were empty when I was there in April (Thurs-Fri), so I was able to enjoy it all to myself! The hotel is about a 15-min walk from Kawaguichiko Station but there is a free hotel shuttle to and from Kawaguchiko Station. The shuttle must be prebooked at the reception desk and limited to the pre-specified time slots. The staff was super nice and friendly. We were provided all the necessary information at check-in. My family and I stayed in a traditional room with tatami beds. The room was equipped with basic amenities as well as a water warmer for tea and a small fridge. Given the price, don’t expect the bells and whistles of a luxury ryokan. If you are okay with no frills and simply want the basic ryokan onsen experience, this place is a decent place to start.

Very authentic Japanese hotel. Carpeted floors everywhere, nice classical looking lobby. I stayed in a traditional style room with lots of wood, tatami mats and slept on a futon. Great views of Lake Kawaguchi through the window. And, importantly, there is a refrigerator in the room. Very basic, but old-school vibes in this hotel. And unexpectedly an amazing shower as well! The experience was very unique and a fantastic change from the standard hotel rooms that are common all over the world. The staff was very friendly, but they speak very little English. It's part of what makes this hotel interesting, it's catered towards Japanese people and not specifically towards foreigners. But that did make communicating with staff difficult sometimes. However this is entirely my own shortcoming for not speaking the Japanese language well enough (yet! :)). The hotel has a service where they come pick you up from Kawaguchiko station with a van, which saves you a 20 minute walk with all your luggage. Nice!

If you would like to get away from the touristic crowds, yet very close and walking distance to everything, this hotel is perfect! Directly at the lake and only a few minutes walk to a perfect place to experience the sunrise over Mount Fuji with a chance to get the rare double Mount Fuji picture (reflection in the lake). The hotel is not the newest place in town, but it’s a lovely authentic Japanese place, where you can experience the Onsen and traditional clothing. Free snacks are provided during the afternoon. Probably the best part of the hotel was the staff. Incredibly helpful and kind people help you making your stay perfect. And if you’re lucky, you’ll meet Tommy! Tommy is the Best :). He gave us the warmest welcome we could wish for and the best recommendations in the area. The sincere joy we got from him, even when getting up at 4:45 to catch that sunrise, instantly made our day! Tommy, if you read this review, you truly are the best. For everyone else, I can warmly recommend this hotel.

The hotel was very comfortable. The facilities are a little dated, but I'm not worried about those types of things. The view from our room was spectacular and had a beautiful view of the lake. You can't see Fuji from the hotel, but the lake makes it worth it. If you get the Kawaguchiko two day pass, the ropeway and ferry are very close to the hotel. It is a little out of the way from Kawaguchiko Station, but if you call the hotel, they will send someone to pick you up at the station. Most of the staff spoke English, which was helpful. We didn't order the dinner, but as most people on here said, a lot of the restaurants close early, so we opted for the dinner bento, which was delicious! The breakfast the following morning was also equally delicious as well and a good range of Japanese food. The outdoor onsen was so lovely at night after a long day of walking and sightseeing. I would recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a nice place to stay in Kawaguchiko.
