Beautiful Japanese Tradition- Just not comfortable
Wonderful if you are looking to experience traditional Japanese lodging and dining. The staff was amazing. The location beautiful. For my son and I, who are American, it was a very interesting experience. We only stayed one night, however, because the traditional Japanese accommodation was not comfortable for us (of course everything is done of the floor). But

Guests are welcomed by attentive staff and can enjoy spacious rooms with tatami mats and beautiful views. The on-site onsen provides relaxation, while the kaiseki meals feature seasonal ingredients and exquisite presentation.

If you want a little slice of heaven…
Very wonderful, authentic ryokan. If you are visiting the Lake Kawaguchiko area, I would highly encourage giving Wakakusa-no-Yado a try. The breakfast and dinner meals were amazing, the customer service (from walking in to checking out) was world class. Private and public onsens. Beautiful rooms with an even more breathtaking view… as well as a spectacular rooftop view of Mt. Fuji. Wish my Japanese was a little better so I could have told them, wholeheartedly, how blessed we were by our stay there.

The hot springs and the food were the standouts of this stay. While the ryokan has several Covid related restrictions (reduced hot spring capacity, using sanitizer before entering dining room at breakfast, having dinner in your room, no karaoke) all in all it didn’t impact the experience. The meals were amazing. The ryokan will send an email saying they don’t make substitutions which for the type of food I’m not surprised. A lot of time and care was spent making each meal. Do yourself a favor and ask for the Japanese version of the menu. The English version isn’t a complete translation. Then use either iPhone or google camera translation. One amazing things I realized is at breakfast this morning which was a more westernized menu was the fact the chef and team are not making the same meal for everyone. It is apparently dependent on how many nights you have stayed. I would go again.

The property is located in a beautiful location and it is within walking distance of the gardens, gorgeous cafes, and the lake and nature paths. The hot springs are wonderfully relaxing and having lovely views. The food was delicious and the service was superb. We would definitely come back as a family (as we did) or as a couple. Hope to be back soon!
