For a bit of luxury in the mountains with excellent service go here. However, its not cheap and the decor / room fixtures/fittings need an update to modern day standards. But you do feel special when you are here, being pampered, with lovely gardens and nice views.

We stayed here one night last night. One was probably enough for this area - very touristy but the views, the forest, the experience was lovely. I followed the advice of Lonely Planet and others and emailed asking for a midweek rate a couple of weeks ago - they gave us one night for A$138 and when we arrived they... More

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
