Fuefuki hotellia

Plussat: Despite being in an unlikely part of town, the ryokan was very authentic: the garden is wonderful especially at night; the staff could not have been more helpful. Our two rooms were spacious and close together which helped as a family group. And the Kaiseki dinner was excellent.

Miinukset: Being an older property, some of the decor is rather tired, but that adds strangely to the charm!

Plussat: Atmosphere, the onsen

Miinukset: No shuttle to train station after a certain time

Plussat: Both the half board breakfast and dinner were great. value for money, if you are looking for a nice japanese dining experience, it was good.

Miinukset: Not too much, pretty much liked everythinbg

Plussat: Staff were generally friendly. Not many speak english but then again, they should not really have to. You are in Japan. The onsen (hot springs) facilities were amazing and there is also a free table tennis area. The decor and hotel grounds are really beautiful. Probably the most unique you will ever find.

Miinukset: Too many room visits by staff. In an attempt to be helpful you often cannot get any rest. For example, being chased for breakfast, being asked for room clean (there are no do not disturb signs), then you get separately asked for towels or yukata changes. You can get up to 4/5 visits in a day. If you try to have an afternoon nap, forget about it.

Plussat: The hotel was beautiful. My partner and I really enjoyed exploring the hotel itself, admiring all the lush trees, flowers, and impressive rocks! The onsen was spectacular and well kept. We really enjoyed having a traditional Japanese dinner served in our room, had the best meat in my life.

Miinukset: My partner and I compared the sizes of the onsens, and we found that the male's side was much larger! I didn't like that.

Plussat: Lovely place to stay. Nice staff, delicious food.

Plussat: Beautiful gardens. The most magnificent I have seen at a hotel. Despite reports of tired and dirty rooms on the web, these seem to be from a few years ago and ours seemed well kept

Miinukset: Some hall carpets are looking very worn, but it looks like they are replacing them. In room evening meal was rushed, as they had a large group meal and needed all staff to help

Plussat: the entire place is like museum, I've never seen such curiosities in hotels!

Plussat: The gardens and lobby are beautiful and well thought out. The room was spacious and comfortable, with a nice view out in to the pond. The onsen and spa area was compact yet luxurious. The toiletries and amenities are plentiful. The meals were traditionally Japanese are very Instagram-worthy. A member of the staff helped with English translations while we were there. The hotel was quick to reply to inquiries and provided pick-up from the station.

Miinukset: As some reviews mentioned, away from the main lobby the carpets and furniture are faded and well-worn. The rooms have a slightly musty smell that may come from the mats but is not unbearable. I wish that the staff had told us more about ryokan living like how to wear the yukata, proper onsen etiquette and what exactly we were eating for breakfast and dinner. Sure, we can use Youtube and Google translate to figure these things out, it would greatly enhance our experience if a small pamphlet was provided for foreigners in order to avoid any cultural faux pas.

Miinukset: So very touristy. Not that comfy and private

Plussat: Spa Land Naito’s spa and onsen is always something we look forward to.

Miinukset: The hotel room could be a bit nicer, but for the price it’s fine

Plussat: great service, food, hot spring

Miinukset: location wasn't so nice in a nondescript part of a tone but the place felt like an oasis

Plussat: Staff was helpful though didn't speak English. Hotel; and room was clean and comfortable.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: The staff were very helpful and kind.

Miinukset: We chose this location for the outdoor garden. We were excited to sit and talk in the beautiful setting shown in the pictures. The garden was not accessible, no water, no Matt’s or chairs, or lighting. This was a big disappointment. We spent most of our time in our room.

Plussat: Probably the best Ryokan I have found in Japan Facilities are clean and beautiful and the staff are caring and polite Dinner is one of the Best I have tasted in Japanese Ryokan

Plussat: The food taste good. Pretty relaxing.

Miinukset: Cause I do not speak Japanese, it is hard to get accurate information.

Plussat: Clean and bright with friendly staff (English available) Walking distance to shopping (Don Quijote) and other family entertainment and restaurant locations

Miinukset: TV only showed shows and channels requiring payment to watch

Plussat: Convenient place to stay 2 nights - after visiting Mt Fuji Five Lakes, then to Shosenkyo Gorge, before driving to Chichibu NP. Communal mw oven good for meals & coin laundry helpful.

Miinukset: Beds were very hard, but on request, staff provided an extra doona to sleep on.

Plussat: Price and quality

Miinukset: Breakfast

Plussat: It was near to the shop

Plussat: Ckeanliness

Miinukset: Satisfied

Plussat: Staff are very nice, very clean, good breakfast and parking provides for free. Also has washing and drying facilities.

Plussat: Ice vending machine available

Plussat: Staff is nice, room is clean, free parking

Miinukset: room size

Plussat: Onsen

Miinukset: Location in industry part of town

Plussat: Great washitsu room, ok onsen, if you can get the day when the outdoor rooftop one is for your gender in the evening. Old big classic hotel that caters to Japanese tourists.

Miinukset: This onsen town, where the cluster of hotels is, now is not really worth visiting, except as a place to stay in Kofu. Nothing against the actual fine hotel.

Plussat: Bit old fashioned but nice and excellent value Nice Ofuro on the roof, including a rotenburo Very copious diner Great fun to be able to go after diner to pachinko in front in yukata

Miinukset: The garden was not lightened (broken system after he typhoon) while it is supposed to be a highlight

Plussat: Nice country side property with many amenities. Also beautiful Sakura and great onsen onsite. Themed rooms for family.

Plussat: We love our room and the half board dinner plus onsen in red wine

Plussat: The hospitality was amazing. The space is really big with at least 3/4 areas to relax in. Fully equipped kitchen, but the closest place to buy food is lake kunigawacha- a 20min drive away. Stove instructions are in Japanese so be sure to ask for advice on how to use it beforehand.

Miinukset: The futon beds are actually just a thin mattress, which is quite uncomfortable if you aren't used to sleeping on the floor. No blinds in the bedroom so you wake up early with the sun

Miinukset: The hotel located along the main route used by trucks & heavy vehicles - almost throughout 24 hours Will not get a good sleep in the night

Plussat: Free coffee in the lobby. Rooms small but clean. Good breakfast. Great value for money.

Miinukset: The hotel charged us the adult price instead of kids prices for the kids’s dinners even though I asked for 4 adult meals. I finally got them to change the fee at check out,but there should be a better way to book through booking.com to ensure that the dinner we are paying for is what we are getting. Very disappointing!

Plussat: The Onsen was awesome. The staff were extremely friendly. The room size was great.

Miinukset: The room was dated/run down and the bathroom super tiny considering the price of the room.

Plussat: The breakfast was a nice Japanese experience.

Miinukset: Dirty and worn down in all aspects.

Plussat: Breakfast is good, old ladies who serve breakfast are friendly. The room is big and I like the partition for serpsrating smoking lounge and living room.

Miinukset: The hotel is about 30 mins walk from train station, not so convenient if you are not traveling by car. Fridge in the room is dirty and room is a bit dusty, cleanness part could have done better.
