I like the price and location. Owner is kind and helpful. They give me a small gift when I leave there. If weather is good. Then will be perfect.

The beds were a little hard.

The owner was extremely friendly. He had many leaflets in English, and recommended us local places to eat. He also explained the local bus services to us and showed us exactly how to get to where we needed to go. The room was basic, but comfortable and clean. Well worth the money, in a peaceful location, surrounded by trees, fields, hills, and Mt. Fuji in the distance!

Friendly owner

Only downside was that its a bit further away from any bigger Station and the Connection To Kyoto is quite frankly awful. Nothing To do with the hotel tho.

Absolutely incredible in terms of Service. The owner is one of the nicest guys you will ever meet. The Hotel is nice but nothing too fancy. Everything you Need is provided and its very clean as well. It more than Suffices for a Night or two.

The buses around the area end early (6pm for the Kawaguchiko bus, 7pm for the local bus) so you can’t really stay out too late unless you are willing to walk ~1h from Kawaguchiko station

The owner was really friendly and helpful and the hotel is nested away from the crowded tourist areas

The place has no elevator, it might be difficult to get to the higher floor if you carry the heavy baggage. The room is a little bit old-looking but still clean and comfortable.

The owner was really nice and friendly. We love the style of the hotel, it is Japan-Western style. The location is far from the train station, but we have no issue because we came by car, and it turned to be really nice and quiet to stay. The room comes with a good size twin bed and good bathroom.

The hotel is located near to Lake Kawaguchi northern shore. We could view Mt Fuji 🗻 from the hotel. We visited it during the Sakura season and the lines of Sakura trees were just 200mtrs away from the hotel. The room was of good size and had running hot water. The owner was kind enough to let us check in at 1pm. As it was the peak of tourist season and taxis were unavailable, the owner kindly dropped us to Kawaguchi station.

The host looked after us and was very helpful. The nearby lake gave us the perfect opportunity to view and take pictures of Mount Fuji

Not a big issue. But the sound insulstion is not perfect. But it's ok. I can sleep.

Good place, quiet, close to lake where could see fuji yama with good view. Also close to bus station, where has convenient stores. The owner couple is very kind and hepful.

quite far away from the station.

The host is really nice!! Out of my expectations!! Though both of us are not good at English, the host still tried his best to offer some guidance of our trip on the next day. And he also offered us a ride. We really appreciate that. The facilities are also well-maintained and clean. Can see part of Fuji mt when standing in front of the yard.

In my room, there are two bed, the inner bed doesnt have good Wi-Fi signal, but it is fine, since I travel alone, so I just change from the inner bed to the outer bed, which solve the problem. The toilet door in my room also have tiny bit of malfunction, it somehow slam the door close, it is very difficult to close it quietly and slowly, because it get stuck. I am sorry to those that heard the loud door closing sound.

My solo trip during golden week. Overall, it is up to my expectation, it is comfortable, the host is friendly and introduced me a few place of interest around the area. He also answered my inquiries on where to get dinner, nearby convenience store and bus stop etc. For me, the location is superb, I managed to walk to all my destination nearby. Otherwise, further area, I will take the bus. Take note, golden week is a week long holiday for Japan, the bus will be delayed due to high traffic.

Utilising the public buses can be a hassle in the evening. I don't think they run to this side of the town after 7pm.

The staff/owner ia very friendly. I got lost at the end of the street on the first day. He's very responsive on booking.com and came out to find me. The location is good for this side of Lake Kawaguchi to check out some good viewing points of Fujisan. I love the lavender oil infuser. Thank you.

The room was not big nor luxurious, but perfectly functional with everything you need, and it was very clean. Beds were comfy. There's a fridge and microwave you can use next to your room. You can eat either in your room or in the dining room where there are dishes at your disposal. The owner is super nice, he'll accomodate you and give you nice advices to visit around, but for all that he's not invasive. Overall you'll feel more like at home, in a quiet and peaceful japanese countryside, than in a hotel. Location is perfect to visit the momiji festival.

Very nice and kind owner, went to meet me and agreed to extend my stay, although I only booked a room for 1 night.

Stayed in November 2022

didnot serve anything in the dining room (probably due to pandemic situation, hope the covid gets over soon)

We were soaked in heavy rain and came up late in the evening The staff (i think he was the owner?) patiently waited for our arrival (we notified him for our late checkin) It was a nice clean and comfy guesthouse The cleanliness was like 10/10 ****** Sadly we didnot have the chance to enjoy the scenic view of Fuji Mt. as it was obstructed by the cloud, but we enjoyed very much the guesthouse and the lakeside town Very nice guesthouse i would not hesitate to recommend this to others and i would be happy to book Melange guesthouse anytime i visit Kawaguchiko in the future

This location is very far from the train station (about a 40-50min walk on foot) but this was a beautiful scenic walk (definitely recommend taking the longer route across the bridge for nice views, otherwise not worth the walk) if you have time. Otherwise, you can take the bus to near by the lodge.

Rooms were very spacious and comfortable, although a bit old looking. The bathtubs that they rent to the guests are huge and an interesting experience to try out if you’re in Japan. Soaking in a nice hot tub after a day of hiking was great. Location is walking distance to the momiji corridor which is beautiful at night during the fall foliage light up!
