Great stay at Toyoko Inn - there were shuttle bus from Kawaguchiko station to the hotel which was really convenient. Check in was smooth and the room was great too. Was able to see mt Fuji from my room too. Daily breakfast was delicious too - guests had 2 options (either Japanese or Western breakfast) ...

HaoSTAY
Pretty great view of Mt Fuji from the Fuji-view room. Helpful staff and bike rental. Only downside (although a very small issue) was the entire bathroom moves a little bit, not too much, but enough to feel a little off balanced

Fuji View Hotel
The view to the Mount Fuji from my room (331) was amazing! However, apart from that and helpful staff the hotel is quite run down. Breakfast was very poor, especially options for westerners.
