A memorable stay. An older hotel with traditional Japanese rooms but comfortable, right beside the lake and close to dining, walking tracks and tourist attractions. The onsen was really nicely done. Included dinner in kimonos for our group and a good breakfast.

This is a very nice hotel, the rooms ae large and comfortable, but you have to be okay with futons on teh floor. It is right across from the lake and within walking distance of the Rope line, boat tours and restaurants and cafes. The Hot springs pools are gender separated and in traditional Japanese style, with an outdoor pool and a hotter indoor poole and full showering and washing with shampoo and soap. A very good place with a free shuttle from the station.

This was my second visit to Royal Hotel Kawaguchiko. The staff here are always friendly and helpful. The onsen is lovely, and the location of the hotel—right next to the Kawaguchiko sightseeing buses and close to the bridge—is great. My only disappointment is that the Japanese-style room that I stayed in did not have real tatami flooring. Even so, I will probably stay here again if I return to Kawaguchiko.

nice and quiet hotel and old-style onsen. i have no idea if it's the winter time reason or whatever, not so many guests there, basically we shared the whole hotel among 2 or 3 rooms of guests only. nice in a way. but honestly i think the dinner and breakfast could have been better.

The bathroom was very small, and it was dangerous to get in and out of the bathtub with no safety handrails to hold onto, especially when one’s feet are wet. There was a scarcity of hooks and towel racks to hang the towels and one’s clothing. There was no way to adjust the temperature in the room, and we found an opening in the wall with a cover that led to who knows where.
