They have rooms in two directions. One side faces a parking lot (still a good view) the other side faces mt. Fuji. We stayed in a room facing the parking lot as we didn't want to move during our stay which we extended twice. They offered us 3 times to move! Very kind of them. In general it is a nice place to stay with a window front in your room and a great onsen on the ground floor which most people use during night times. The bus stop is a 1 min walk on the lake side. From there you can take a direct bus to Aiokigahara Forest. Make sure to buy one of these combo tickets at the train station when you arrive in Kawaguchiko as the bus gets expensive for longer distances and it soon starts to sum up. The hotel picked us up at the station for free but you need to contact the tourist information at Kawaguchiko station to call them. The ropeway for a nice Fuji view is a 20 mins walk on the lakeside.
The interiors of the hotel are old fashioned and the room was a bit cramped with tables. One TV table. One shelf. One coffee table. One fridge... So you end up having no space for your luggage. The beds were soft but that is up to your taste. Overall this hotel could use some renovation / investment but for a good price in a quiet area with a great onsen and helpful receptionists there is nothing much to complain about.

It’s ok, lovely staff.. epic Onsen ( it’s definitely the highlight of this hotel) rooms are tired and need a lick of paint and new tiled floors in toilets to refresh. Close enough to everything, we hired bikes from hotel next door and loved it. Amazing view of Mt Fuji from our window when it wasn’t cloudy. Baseball hitting nets down the road. Find Dinos diner and the restaurant beside it for a great feed and lovely old lady running it. She’ll feed you local produce in a traditional setting.. The food really was exceptional. A good place to stay on average budget. Clean and close to everything.

As a traveller with large tattoos, I wanted to leave a review here confirming that this onsen allows for guests with tattoos. This is the onsen review only.
I went in the early afternoon on a Saturday and, while initially I shared the onsen with 4 other Japanese ladies, eventually I had the whole onsen for myself.
Very hot water, 1 indoor pool and 2 outdoor pools, although one was not in use and empty. 1000 yen for 2 hours (bring your own towels), English website, easy to access from Kawaguchiko station.

Made one visit to this Onsen, it has pools both inside and outdoors (under shelter). Pools were in a traditional Japanese rock pool style and very pleasant. Tattoo friendly and 1000Y for 2 hours spa use.

a completely renovated hotel, the rooms still smell new, they are clean. The sleeping on the floor is of good quality, good overall service for this hotel which was criticized before its renovation. Ideal location with views of the lake and Mount Fuji. Don't hesitate to go up to the 5th floor to see the mountain up close.

Pension well located, by a majestic lake and overlooking Fuji San, new room with futon on tatami, very comfortable. Cleanliness top. The onsen is a real joy, especially the outdoor bath, in the rocks and vegetation. A great experience. The restaurant is good. Pension of small size, it is good to cross the road and walk around lake after morning onsen (5am).But the bath is open all the time.

Whatever it is don't stay at the Royal Hotel Kawaguchico ryokan. It is old, rooms have seen better days and the toilet in the room is dirty and ancient. The place seems to be managed by South Asians who are rather rude, and all signs are not guest-friendly and carries a scolding tone.

The comfort is very brief, the breakfast very average. In addition, the entrance to the hotel from the parking lot is completely smashed!! As a result, access to reception is very difficult with suitcases. I still wonder how ASIA (a tour operator renowned for its quality) was able to choose this low-end hotel.

We didn't stay at this hotel, only went there to try the onsen for the first time. I heard that they accept the tattoo people so we chose to come here. The first onsen experience here was great! Not as awkward as I thought. Not many places that accept tattoo people so we will definitely go back here again if we have a chance to go to Kawaguchiko.

The shared bathroom is for toilet and wash basin only. There is no shower on the sleeping floor. One has to wash in its onsen place which is located on the ground floor (or they call it 1/F). The bathroom is basically a Men toilet with two standing urinal bowls (for male) together with two closed western toilet bowls (for either sex). The design is not convenient for female to use if a guy has already entered and standing there.
