Everything. We absolutely loved our stay – it was the highlight of our trip. Everything was beautifully prepared, and the view of Mount Fuji and the torii gate was simply breathtaking. The place had a peaceful, welcoming atmosphere, and every detail showed great care. A truly special experience we’ll never forget!

Muku is the best retreat experience I’ve ever had. We honeymooned here and the staff made it special with some sweet gifts, hand written note and a personalised wooden coaster. Endo went above and beyond to assist us and helped us with site seeing suggestions and restaurant recommendations. The property itself has a unique wooden design that’s very warm and inviting. The bathroom was the highlight of the property. It had a lay down sauna, deep bath tub and a large shower. The morning breakfast was amazing, one day was a selection of traditional Japanese breakfast and the following day was western style. There is even electric bikes so you can zoom around town in. Although the staff spoke limited English, they communicated effortlessly with the help of google translate.

Everything, from the modern and minimalist design, to the breakfast, the views and the calmness. But the highlight goes to the hospitality, with the staff always available and kind. If I could, I would come back every month.

Service and the exclusiveness

The property was fantastic, one of the best accommodations we have stayed at. The natural aroma of the wood as soon as you enter is instantly soothing, and the private sauna, rain shower and bathtub make for the most relaxing experience with the property being the perfect pit stop in the middle of your trip to unwind. The tatami area upstairs is also great to relax in as it has a view of Mt. Fuji, a balcony and a vinyl player amongst other activities such as board games and reading materials. The complimentary drinks and snacks were delicious and the breakfast every morning was well thought out and presented beautifully with each item being explained to us. I loved the skincare products provided in the bathroom! There was also a gallery/ art exhibition on during our stay which was a nice little addition. Despite having a language barrier (we did not speak any Japanese), we found the whole experience to be seamless from start to finish. The staff were incredibly helpful and arguably took the whole experience to another level! Being anxious about the frequency of local trains, we were able to contact the property prior to our stay to arrange to be picked up from the Shin-Fuji station. After picking us up, Gotou was kind enough to take us sightseeing to some of the local spots (and each one had the most beautiful view of Mt. Fuji which is massive and majestic in person!). Ogushi also looked after everything we needed and answered all our questions - even helping us with maps and recommendations of activities and offering to take us places if we needed! I am a vegetarian and in noting this, Ogushi had already printed out menus (highlighting the vegetarian options) and contacted local restaurants that offer vegetarian options. We got takeaway on the first night and like any other hotel we expected to grab the bag and go inside the room but Ogushi (being the wonderful host she is) had set everything up beautifully on the lounge table for us to enjoy.

The location initially left a bit to be desired. However, the explored more and found a lot to do!

Wow what a stay! The property is amazing. The facilities were great, we very much enjoyed the bath tub and sauna. It was so clean and spacious, and the beds were incredibly comfortable. The room had everything you needed and more! I particularly enjoyed the skincare that was provided! The room was stocked with drinks and the bar was great. Ogushi was a fantastic host, simply wonderful. She made suggestions and reservations for amazing restaurants, the best food we’ve had for our whole stay.

There were no faults to this stay

My partner and I recently stayed at this hotel and couldn't be more impressed! The staff were incredibly friendly and went out of their way to make us feel welcome. The hotel's design is stylish and thoughtful, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. Every morning, we enjoyed a beautiful breakfast with a delicious variety of options. It was the perfect way to start our day! I highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a fantastic stay. You won’t be disappointed!

We had a very friendly and exceptionally helpful reception upon arrival by the owners of the property. The retreat hotel is very nice and comfortable, especially also the integrated sauna. Breakfast in the morning was excellent. We very also got great support for sightseeing at Mount Fuji and to take the train to our next destination.

This hotel is very unique and it was the highlight of our visit to Japan. From the moment we arrived we were fully looked after in every respect. After visiting Osaka and Kyoto we stayed here. It was the perfect mid point of the holiday and provided the 'Real Japanese Experience' that we were looking for. If you are interested in design, architecture, interior design, modern design, Japanese culture, peace and tranquility then this will not disappoint! The introduction to the room and facilities was very comprehensive. As this is a boutique hotel the owners and staff like to take their time to explain. This helps and assists with everything and this is all part of the experience. We were 2 adults and 2 young children ages 3 and 10mo. We had the best time!
