Our ryokan and private onsen were absolutely beautiful and a much needed respite of countless steps while sightseeing during our time in Japan. The mattresses were comfortable and the view was beautiful. All amenities were provided including shampoo, conditioner, soap, face wash, face moisturizer, slippers, bath robes, tea, coffee, toothbrushes and toothpaste, combs, and robes to wear around the property. The location is also central to the Mt. Fuji sightseeing ropeway, the sightseeing boat, Lawson, and local souvenir shops and restaurants. However, the hike up to the actual lobby is quite steep. Not recommended for anyone with difficulties hiking or with excess luggage. I recommend forwarding your luggage here directly or travel with just a backpack. The food was also pretty subpar which was disappointing.

We have 3 rooms for our family. 2 rooms was nice and modern. The one with onsen was old. It has a musky smell. Good breakfast, but has no dinner. Overall, this place is ok.

My stay at Hotel Rayuku was simply amazing. Everything was perfect—from the warm and attentive service provided by the staff to the excellent food that exceeded expectations. The views from the room were breathtaking, and everything was spotless and perfectly organized. Surrounded by beautiful nature, the hotel offers a peaceful atmosphere that makes the whole experience unforgettable. Without a doubt, this is a place I would love to return to again.

The stay was absolutely fabulous! The room was beautiful with the best view imaginable. The onsen was often available just for oneself, making the experience especially relaxing. The tastings offered throughout the day were outstanding and a real highlight. In just ten minutes, one can reach the lake and the ropeway, making the location super convenient. Highly recommended for anyone seeking relaxation and breathtaking scenery!

What an amazing hotel! From the moment we walking in we were amazed. The elegance and beauty of everything was breathtaking, the view alone was incredible. The only thing was during my second night whoever was staying above me wouldn’t stop stomping their feet and moving things around. I called the front desk multiple times and the workers told them to stop but they never did, it went on almost all night and even in the morning the next day. That was the only disappointment and it was caused by another guest. Overall 10/10 just hope you don’t have to deal with inconsiderate people like I did.

The property was very clean and the rooms were spacious and well equipped. The Rakuyu service team was professional at all times and provided exceptional service as described in the booking. The shuttle driver was amazing and kind! And the Onsen was amazing! I’d like to come back and be able to just relax more at the hotel.

Hotel Rakuyu was great! We booked the traditional Japanese room which was a fun experience. The way they describe the food that is included with your stay is not like "dinner" they refer to it as small bites and drinks - however it is a FULL buffet. You absoluetely could only eat the food provided here and be full. They serve breakfast 7-9, snacks 3-5, and small bites and drinks 5-7 The hotel is on a huge hill, but we walked up and down it many times. They also have a walking path that takes you straight to the city vs the hill that takes you down more toward the water area. Overall would recommend. The views are lovely!!
