Why stay at FUFU Kawaguchiko

  1. Fuji in front of the suite

    The resort faces the mountain across the lake, and its terraces are turned to it.

  2. An onsen to every suite

    Each suite carries its own outdoor onsen on the terrace, filled with hot-spring water.

  3. A place made for rest

    Two nights with nothing to do but the onsen, the mountain and a slow dinner.

the setting

Mount Fuji, seen from your own onsen.

Lake Kawaguchi is one of the Fuji Five Lakes, and the resort stands on a wooded slope above it, where the mountain rises across the water. The town of Fujikawaguchiko and the Chureito Pagoda are a short drive.

At the door: the forest, the lake below, and Fuji filling the view from the terrace.

the rooms

The rooms and suites

Every room is a suite, in pale wood, linen and stone, with a living room, a terrace and an outdoor onsen of its own; the larger suites add a second terrace and wider glass to the mountain.

On The Classic Cherry Blossom Tour of Japan every room is from the resort's upper categories or a suite, never the entry room.
