SMO32Booked last minute the night before. Great price and location. Low price was the main reason for booking. The shock and big surprise was the 11 out of 10 service and TLC I got from the owner Marie. I stayed in a room with its own bath shower toilet. Best customer careI have ever had even compared to a high end hotel for $200 a night. Yes you read that right. Something about these smaller hotels and the quality of service can't be matched. Very clean and very cute stay for exploring the Fuji mountain area. She speaks Chinese, Japanese and some English. And an amazing cook. Wow I was thankful I chose to eat at the hotel and not out somewhere else. My Bed was also very comfortable. Great sleep. It was More comfortable than the Disney Hilton Tokyo bay for $200 a night. Terrible beds.

This was my first time visiting Mount Fuji, and I decided to experience a traditional guesthouse. I chose one closer to Fuji, in Lake Yamanaka.
Transportation: Very convenient, whether by bus or train. On the way there, I took the Fujikaiyu from Shinjuku, spent some time in Kawaguchiko, then checked the schedule and took either the A1 or F1 bus to the entrance of Hana no Miyako Park, a 3-minute walk away. For the return trip, I took the highway bus from Yamanakako Station (I bought tickets in advance, choosing the Japanese option to get this stop).
Environment: Lake Yamanaka is incredibly peaceful, with very few tourists. We stayed in room 202, which offered a view of Mount Fuji. Although the room didn't have a private bathroom, the shared onsen (hot spring) and shower facilities felt much more authentic! They were very clean, and the hot spring was wonderfully relaxing! Just note that the onsen closes at 10 PM.
Food: Supermarkets, convenience stores, and 100-yen shops are all within a 10-minute walk.
Scenery: The guesthouse offered electric-assist bicycles for rent. I don't quite remember the price, but the bikes were easy to ride and saved a lot of effort. I highly recommend cycling around the lake!
Minor drawback: The soundproofing wasn't great; I could hear the alarm from the next room at 4:30 AM.

CP63Decided to stay at Lake Yamanakako for it’s quietness compared to the bustling Lake Kawaguchiko area, and Fuji Yamanakako hotel is the right choice as there is a bus stop right outside the hotel and short walking distance to the lakeside. The tatami style room was neat and clean, the staff were helpful and friendly and uses a mobile translator for conversation. The attached public bath is small but serve its purpose. There are e-bikes and normal bicycle for rental at the hotel. Small eateries are just round the corner. Would recommend for travellers looking for quiet stay near the lake and with a Mt Fuji view from the lakeside on a clear day.

Jav CMy stay at the Fuji Marriott Hotel Lake Yamanaka was absolutely rejuvenating. The hotel perfectly captures the serene beauty of the Fuji Five Lakes area, offering a tranquil environment that feels incredibly spacious and well-integrated with the surrounding nature.

DndoriimuThe cabin was very clean and well maintained, with all equipment and amenities in excellent condition. Everything felt new and thoughtfully prepared, making the stay very comfortable. The self check-in and check-out process was easy and convenient.
The highlight was definitely the beautiful view of Mount Fuji — waking up and seeing Fuji so clearly was unforgettable.

This hotel is located right by Lake Yamanaka. You can see Mount Fuji across the street from the entrance, and the hotel also offers bicycle rentals. It's about a 10-minute bike ride to Hirano Beach.
Getting here is convenient; you can take a direct bus from Tokyo to Yamanakako Asahigaoka Station, and the hotel owner even provides pick-up service from nearby stations around Lake Yamanaka.
The hotel has an old-fashioned inn feel, but it's very clean, and the rooms are incredibly spacious! It was very quiet at night, so I slept really well overall. The breakfast was also excellent – what could be better than a hot breakfast after watching the sunrise on a cold morning?

Definitely one of the best stays during my Japan trip so far. The host Leslie was super friendly and welcoming, he walked us through everything we needed to know and even gave us a little tour of the place.
The highlight for me was definitely the three different types of onsen (something I was really looking forward to!), and the rooms were clean, spacious, and really comfortable.
He even drove us to the nearest convenience store when he found out we hadn’t had dinner yet, which was such a kind gesture. Breakfast the next morning (Western-style) was amazing too.
Would 200% come back again!

This place is very close to Lake Yamanaka, and its off-street location makes it very quiet. If you're driving, you'll need to set your GPS to Yamanakako Post Office. The staff, especially the younger woman, was very polite and could communicate in both English and Mandarin. The whole place is a traditional Japanese ryokan with a bit of history. Don't expect it to be brand new, but it's clean and tidy, making for a comfortable stay. We booked room 102 with a garden, and we were so lucky to see a clear view of Mount Fuji on our first day! It was truly amazing to see it from our room. The only minor inconvenience was that you have to reserve a time slot for bathing. There are two private onsen rooms outside the guest rooms. When you reserve a slot, it becomes your private bath, complete with a shower area and a small indoor tub. They also provide a full range of amenities, including cleansing oil and facial wash. Overall, it's still a great choice! Highly recommended.

I love Yamanakako and have stayed around the lake 5 or 6 times over the past 4 years and at various different places. For me and my needs, this was the best place that I have stayed at so far. Reasonably-priced, with a great, lake-side location (and Fuji-san views behind) and easy (walkable) access to restaurants and convenience stores (7-11 is the nearest). Our tatami room was nice and clean and although it didn't have its own toilet, the shared facilities (toilets and separate bath) were also very clean. The staff were friendly too. I like to try staying at new places but would happily (and most probably will) stay at Lakepia Angel again. That would give me the opportunity to try the food, which I didn't experience this time. Thanks!
