This is a little gem I stumbled upon when looking for a hotel in the Lake Kawaguchiko area. The hotel is situated on a hillside overlooking the lake. It’s sort of right in the middle of all the activities but being away on the hill makes it completely serene. The hill is fairly steep but the hotel provides a free shuttle service from the station upon request. The facilities are top notch. The rooms are spacious and well-equipped. The onsen is excellent. Everything you need is provided. They even give you fresh yukatas to use in the hotel. The food was great too. And the staff are super helpful. Highly recommend it if you are visiting the area.

We liked the modern design of the room and lounge option. Downsides is the bathroom is too small and no place to put the clothing or hang the towel and the heating kept going up even we turned it down.

Likes: friendly and helpful staff, almost 3 meals per day (breakfast tea and dinner), thought limited in selections, but one would get away with a full tummy. Dislikes: it’s built on a pretty steep hill, it’s easier to get down but a struggle to climb back up unless your fitness level is better than average. The onsen bath is heavily chlorinated.

Rakuyu kept us really well fed, with tea-time (3-5pm), light bites and alcohol (5-7pm), there was absolutely no need to venture out to get more food for dinner. Of course the Japanese-American styled breakfast (7.30-9am) was also very appreciated. The public onsen was also lovely, and surprisingly very quiet. I was lucky to have had the whole onsen to myself not once, but thrice! The open window was a nice touch, it kinda felt like an open-air onsen. Of course, the rooms in Rakuyu are wonderfully furnished. The ensuite bathroom was also very comfortable, there was even a little spot for one to sit on while showering. Even though the rooms do not have a view of Mt Fuji, the views of Kawaguchiko is still splendid and definitely worth every penny.
