Shoji Mount Hotel

The staff was very helpful and cheerful. Food was excellent service was impeccable. The onsen was clean and serene. Took a very cool bike ride around the lake. Saw a real live deer. In the morning, Mount Fuji looked awesome. The views are unbelievable.

Charming old school hotel on the shores of Lake Shoji - the most unspoilt of the Fuji five lakes. It was cloudy so no mountain view, but a great dinner made up for it.

The view of Mt. Fuji is stunning if weather permits. You can see it even from your bed. You can enjoy quiet, rural setting. The staff are friendly and helpful. If you are there during weekdays without a car, it will be hard to get lunch.

The views from the hotel are like no other and for that it deserves experiencing. It is very secluded and does sit on a bus route but I would suggest renting a car if you're going to stay here. It's about 30min from Kawaguchiko and there is nothing else nearby. The hotel offered dinner and it was very good, we had the Ishiyaki at our table. The rooms are small which was to be expected however the pillows were very uncomfortable. The art museum was a nice touch but it wasn't very well advertised or I missed it. I only found it because it was on my floor.

This is the small hotel that they use the exterior for the Netflix drama series “ Hot Spot”. The interior is much more spacious than what we see in the TV show. It is located in the remote area and it’s inconvenient for shopping, etc. However, it is an advantage for people who want to avoid the hassle of overtourism in the Mt. Fuji area. The room was newly renovated and the bedding was very comfortable. We didn’t eat at their restaurant, but they have a fridge in the room, so we brought our food and had cozy time enjoying the view of Mt.Fuji from our window.

Amazing place and good view of Mount Fuji. Will book again when I come back!

Excellent service, food and view. The spa is perfect for those who just gone up to Mount Fuji.

Great view to Mt. Fuji (even from our room) and access to the lake.

The staff were incredibly kind and accommodating. Everything was very clean. Amazing views. Never wanted to leave.

This hotel does have a nice view of Mt fuji; however, the building itself has a lot that needs improvement. The curtains are stained and my friend's room had stained carpet. Overall, I was really disappointed given how highly rated the building was on expedia. This hotel is really inaccessible if you do not have a car so I definitely wouldn't recommend it if you're traveling by bus / taxi. There's not much around the area and you'll spend a majority of your time here wondering why you picked such an isolated area. There's nothing to eat outside of the hotel other than two other hotel's and their food options (when I visited they were both closed).

The view of Mt Fuji over the lake was incredible. The staff was lovely and it was peaceful and quiet at the hotel. We loved it so much we tried to extend our stay but they were very busy. We definitely want to come back!

We had a very Plesant stay. Had a very large room with tatami floors and great views of Fuji Mountain over the lake. We had breakfast and dinner. The food and presentation was very good. The personnel was very good. Language can be a problem. Most importantly when we walked in the hotel the first time there was an odor stuck at the ground floor coming from the kitchen, they need to ventilate the area more. We had some nice walks around the lake and took many pictures. Great place to stay couple days.

Amazing views of mountain Fuji come with a price for sure, but this old facility has very little to offer. Run by a bunch of extremely friendly and severely cute old Japanese grandmas, this surprisingly huge hotel is spotless clean but rather abandoned. The baths are located on the ground floor, but from there to your room is a freezing marathon that totally puts you off from using them. If you haven’t booked dinner in advance you’ll be served rice with curry sauce for 1000 yen, so plan in advance. There is nothing else around except from some van loudspeakers waking you up at 6am. Right on time for that sunrise shot!

Quiet and peace, very awesome view of mt. fuji if weather permitted. Very far from train station with less and delay bus could effect your schedule.

We arrived late at night, well past their usual check-in times. While they were not happy with our tardiness, they were still polite and helpful to us, for which we are quite grateful. The hotel is right by Lake Shoji, and as advertised, we got a great view of Mount Fuji from our room. We were very happy with the breakfast provided by the hotel as well. Unfortunately our visit was marred by some cleanliness issues in the room. The hotel is clearly a bit dated, and the towels were not too clean (musky odor), and the bedding had some stains. The room was set up strangely where after using the toilet (near the door), you had to walk all the way to the other end of the room to wash your hands. Logistically, keep in mind that there are not too many eateries nearby open in the evenings, so you should either make a dinner reservation with the hotel, or you'll have to drive 15 - 20 minutes out to other towns.

Incredible team, services and meal quality. A truly "Hot Spot" ;)

客室は富士山の展望も素晴らしく、清掃も行き届いていて良かった。 しかし、乾燥機の上など、ところどころホコリだらけな箇所があったのと、 21時までフリードリンクと書いておきながら夕方時点で空っぽなど、残念なところも少なからずあった。

残念ながら雨で富士山見れませんでしたが、また今度来たいと思います

Amazing location with a stunning view of Mount Fuji.

環境清淨, 景觀絕佳, 但周邊沒有很多餐廳或便利店, 比較適合開車的人入住
