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.

HOSHINOYA Fuji
The best hotel we have stayed. Thoughtful activities and you can’t get a better view of Mount Fuji from your own room 24/7.
