La Vista Fuji Kawaguchiko

Absolutely gorgeous property, great staff, great amenities. Only complaint is I couldn’t stay there forever!

Wonderful views, great staff. Just a little quirky for us. Not very comfortable mattresses or pillows so struggling to get a good night's sleep. However dinner was superb how to rates this place... to some I can understand its high however at the price there's better, maybe just without the views.

Great view and staff ! Really relaxing

There shud be shuttle or buggy transport down the hill. Especially for older folks n people with leg problems.

Love the hotel, could not have a better location of viewing Mt Fuji and Lake Kawaguchiko. Beautiful architecture. Fabulous rooms and amenities. HOWEVER, my husband and I were very disappointed, slightly shocked, that we could not be seated for dinner when checking in at 630pm. The hotel staff knew from email communication that we had traveled all day because we pre-booked the last shuttle. Hotel location away from town does not have other options for guests (without their own car) to find a meal. The front desk staff and dining room hostess would not even check to see if we could pay for a plate of rice!! Management should plan for new guests to be saved a few seats for dinner.

Venetian styled oasis! Glorious baths in your hotel room with epic views of Mt. Fuji. Free shuttle rides to Kawaguchiko station daily. Amazing private baths with different styles that you can use for free without reservation. Free snacks, wine, coffee/tea, and late night ramen. What else can you ask for? 10/10

We booked this hotel for its view of Mt. Fuji which it delivered. Besides that, this hotel is average at best. It’s a very old facility. It seems like you can’t control the AC in your room, after asking them they might enable it for you, but then the AC unit would not give any cool air, just warm. You would be spending thousands of dollars, but they don’t even help moving some items for your comfort. The cleanliness was also subpar, as you would see mold in the shower.

The location is not that convenient,a little bit far from the center,and we didn’t know there was an reservation needed for the dinner, we have to walked down the hotel to get the dinner,and the restaurant within walking distance all closed at 7:00 pm,we walk back to the hotel to get instant cup noodles instead.

La Vista is set quite high up so if you're coming on the tourist bus (red line near stop 17) like us it's a bit of a mountain goat trek up the hill. If you have heavy bags it would be advisable to get a taxi. But when you get to the hotel the view is awesome. I think all the rooms have a view, and we were lucky that Mt Fuji was visible and the day was lovely. The bathroom and balcony overlook the settlement below and the mountain. The rooms are quite traditional but comfortable and clean. Ours had twin beds which were quite firm but I think this is standard for Japan. The TV had no English speaking channels so that was a waste of space. The staff were nice but most had poor English so there was a bit of confusion with a few things. We were told there was a light meal served in the bar at 6pm but when we went down there it was only a selection of 3 biscuits so poorly described (more "afternoon tea"). The restaurant was fully booked so we didn't really eat that night. The breakfast was quite varied but more traditionally focussed than for Westerners. There were enough options but it was definitely aimed at locals not tourists. Again tho, our main reason for booking the hotel was for the view, which was excellent. So all up I think we were happy with the choice and the view lived up to expectations.

Beautiful hotel with a magnificent view of Mt Fuji. It is a grand yellow hotel nestled in the hillside so the hotel itself is quite picturesque. We booked a room with a private indoor onsen with a spectacular view of the Mt Fuji from the room including from the onsen. The water was hot and relaxing and the hotel has free bath salts of several fragrances to add to the water. The breakfast is quite good with a large variety of food. Dinner also has a lot of variety and quantity. It is not directly in Kawaguchiko and is about a 15 minute drive away from the station with a free hotel shuttle to and from the station. Definitely worth it for the view.

The property and location were amazing, breakfast at the property great. My room was a bit dusty but other that a great place to stay. Staff was great as well!

Terrible beds, food not good. Very overpriced

Excellent room view

The views of Mt. Fuji were amazing, the private onsen was so beautiful, & the "reserved" onsens so relaxing! The breakfast was excellent (highly recommend) & all the staff so friendly. Definitely take advantage of the shuttle bus service because it's a long walk from Kawaguchiko Station.

We had a fantastic stay at La Vista Fujikawaguchiko. The service was excellent, from the friendly reception staff to the attentive dining team. The food was delicious, and they kindly accommodated our dietary requirements, which we provided in advance. The views of Mount Fuji were incredible, and we especially enjoyed the bathtub on our balcony. The private onsens were a highlight, and the small touches like free ice candy and complimentary wine made the stay even more enjoyable. We highly recommend this hotel for a relaxing and memorable experience.

Say no more! Its heaven on earth!

Worst customer service ever

Very comfortable hotel to stay

I did not enjoy my stay at all . There’s spider net up on the ceiling and the room was extremely hot and unable to adjust the temperature on my own . The first night my daughter and I were up the entire night , is how hot it was in the room . The location has a stunning view of Mt Fuji yet that is the only bonus . There’s no restaurants around and the only dinning option is hotel 8 meal course which was not delicios at all . If you want to go to the town , you need a cab so it’s about $70 back and forth . Unless you have your own vechicle which we didn’t. The onsen was nice yet other then thar it’s not worth staying here . I would not come back to this hotel as there are multiple other options which are more affordable , clean and convenient.

Besides molds in private hot spring rooms, everything else is just perfect!
