We were in a group so it was a day trip for lunch in The Fujiya restaurant (French cuisine) and a tour of the hotel. The ceiling in the restaurant has paintings and carvings - beautiful. It has a very impressive list of famous guests going back in time. The hotel is truly steeped in history and many people make... More

Staying at the hotel is like stepping back in time 50-100 years and discovering the golden era of the hotel. It is very clean but dated,in a good way as it is all part of the experience. Unfortunately when we stayed it was raining and we couldn't see Mt Fuji but glad to have had the experience. The hotel is... More

We stayed at the Fujiya in March 2013, one night in the Hakone area. The room was huge! Our bellman took 10 minutes to explain how everything in the room worked...definitely the longest and most detailed room orientation I've seen. Service was great overall. The place is sort of a faded glory kind of place, but maintained, and squeaky clean... More

this hotel is beautiful to stay in and worthwhile on your visit to Hakone. It feels old-fashioned, like you've arrived to a different era when hotels were grand. The place is a little run down but I think it adds to the charm and everything is really clean. All the staff were very helpful throughout our stay and the room... More

I have stayed here twice and absolutely loved both visits. It is grand and historic and yes, a bit run down. Both times our room looked like it hadn't been updated since the 1950's, but was very spacious and quite comfortable for our family of five. The grounds are breathtakingly beautiful in the fall and fun to stroll around. My... More

Our family stayed Fujiya Hotel Hakone in 3/26, 2013. We have heard about the hotel's history. Fujiya hotel was greater than we had heard. First, we touched their service. I mentioned my father's birth day. They remembered that. I am sure that's why they manage to the room with great view. Secondly, the hotel is history itself. You can see... More

I stayed in the Fujiya Hotel in late May 2012 and it was a fantastic experience. You will also enjoy it - especially if you have any sense of history. You will also enjoy it if you are concluding your Japan trip in Hakone - and have stayed in many typical Japanese hotels with small rooms. The Fujiya rooms are... More

The Hotel is old, it has history, and it shows its age. It has spectacular grounds and for a large facility offers very personal service. Rooms are themselves far larger than I have come to expect in Japan. Well kept, if a tad threadbare You never forget you are in an old hotel--nothing seems very modern, bt nothing much is... More

We only stayed one night, but it was wonderful. The hotel is so full of personality and charm, and it is quite easy to imagine what it was like in its heyday. We stayed in the Flower Palace and were pleasantly surprised at the size of our room, which was fairly enormous by hotel standards, and had excellent views. We... More
