Hotel Route-Inn Kawaguchiko

Great location with a beautiful view of Mt Fuji across Lake Kawaguchiko (if it's not covered in cloud). The half-board option was excellent for us, with good breakfast and dinner options (buffet for breakfast, buffet and addition japanese box set options as well as crab legs for dinner!). Staff were friendly and helpful with some staff having better english than others. There is a local bus service that stops right outside the Hotel which is what we used most days to explore the area. There are two indoor hotspring bath options: one for Hotel visitors only and a public option (which is bigger). During our checkout the Hotel gave us a shuttle bus ride to Kawaguchiko station.

Double room was not particularly large but had all the facilities you needed (laundry coin in hot spring baths). I would have liked a communal lounge area so that we had somewhere nice to chill when we were not out and about. Hotel is a little dated but they have down their best to modernise where needed. I would suggest going for twin room if you need more space.
