The price may jump out at you but let me tell you this is an exclusive place with impeccable service. We stayed for 2 nights over Xmas Eve and Xmas in 2011. The room just wows you with its typical Japanese ryokan beauty while the private onsen under the red umbrella is soothing and totally cool especially in winter. The... More

My wife and I booked this Onsen based on the reviews on Tripadvisor and I must say that I is one of the best experiences I have had in Japan. Onsenji is NOT a huge commercial complex and we stayed in one of the suites which came with our private onsen pool. The staff is amazingly helpful and the food... More

We stayed at the OnsenJi last year (september 2010). When we arrive Fuji Zan was hidden by the rain, but in the morning it was right in front of our window. We stayed in the private area (they also have a B&B) and its way cheaper, but not at all comparable. It is far to try and getting there, but... More

The hotel is only two stories set in a lovely garden. I wanted to experience a proper Japanese bath. If you do too, this is the place for it. There is no other shower/bath but the shared bath. The process is clear and the result is amazing: squeaky clean and relaxed. My room was very large and tea essentials were... More

There are some good points about this place: the great location, close to touristic bus roads, the sauna with a view on the Fuji, and the traditional look and feel. However the facilities are aging and the place is not spotless.Stained walls, stained futon, that you have to setup yourself. Shared toilet and sink.Shared air conditionner remote controller. No showers... More

the room with view to Fuji-San was spacious and japanese style; even having to share the bath / toilet with others (very clean and not crowded) felt comfortable; very quiet after the public bath closing time; wonderful stay for a night or two to explore the area around Fuji-San; recommended to travel by own car, to get more easily around...

My daughter and I stayed at the Plaza Inn area at Onsenji Yumedono in mid April 2011. Our Japanese room was spacious with futons on the tatami floor, reverse cycle air conditioner, a low table, wide screen TV, refrigerator, and hot water machine with complimentary tea and coffee. The beautiful wooden staircase leads from reception to the upper level where... More

Fantastic place. We stayed 2 nights. Hilights are the dinner and breakfast meals, there were about 10 courses for dinner and about 10 small dishes for breakfast. The private onsen was essential as their public onsen was crowded. We were served mainly by one women, who spoke very little english but was extremely friendly and helpful, she even ran out... More

What more can I say about this place except fantastic. Beautiful and peaceful. Extremely friendly staff. We only spoke limited Japanese but the staff was so accommodating that the language barrier was never a problem. They will even pick you up and drop you off at Kawaguchiko station. We stayed in one of their Japanese style rooms. Very clean and... More
