Tokai HostelsHostel

The host is probably the best host I have ever had. Incredible level of hospitality. I would never be able to forget the experience we had even if we stayed for only one night.

Very easy to see why it has a 5 star rating. Possibly our favourite stay of the whole two week trip — and we only stayed one night!

Lovely place, not to be confused with an actual ryokan.

My partner and I stayed in a double deluxe room and we had a pleasent stay. :) The bed was comfortable and there was enought space in the room.

I stayed here in October a few years ago and it was incredibly comfortable and quiet.

Great place, way better than I expected.

This place is a gem. It’s a short walk from kawaguchiko station and the hosts were very nice. They helped us keep our bags while we climbed up Mt Fuji and were very kind.

Highly recommended! Amazing value, super helpful friendly staff and beautiful traditional guest house. Great for short or longer stays and close to the station.

The view from the room is amazing! I loved it and the private onsen that they offer is also a really great add to the experience! ✨

We chose (海) Umi room with stunning Mt. Fuji view. The room was large with separate toilet and bathroom. They have private hot spring which you can reserve and use free of charge.

I found Hostel Knot through booking. Com, and I was drawn to its affordable price, good location, and positive reviews from other guests.

I stayed at Hostel Knot for two nights. I was welcomed at check-in by Haru and Jamie, who were both very warm and kind throughout my stay.

Had an unforgettable stay at Hostel Fujisan YOU. First of all, the location. It's located centrally in Fujiyoshida, about a 5 minute walk from Mt. Fuji station.

Just like home away from home.
We had a great experience overall. The hostel is perfectly located—just a short walk from the local train station and with stunning views of Mt. Fuji on clear days.

I had the best stay here!

We had such a wonderful stay!

I stayed at this fabulous property over the summer with my Son and I wasn’t disappointed.
The room (twin, with bathroom) was simply stunning.

This was by far our best hostel experience ever — this place is really special. We stayed in one of their two private rooms, which was very spacious, clean and with a view on surrounding mountains.

I had a lovely and memorable stay at this accommodation. It offers a relaxing, cozy, and warm vibe that makes you feel right at home.

If I could give higher rating I would. The place that the owner almost build himself is cosy, clean, well placed and you feel like home. The host is the most fun, kind and giving host I have ever had.

It locates in a small, quiet and nice village. Everything is good, the host is friendly, the room is cozy, clean… however this area is so boring at night.

The hostel was small and cozy, and the beds were very comfortable (Japanese capsule style), offering plenty of privacy.

We spent three nights at this accommodation and had the best time. The owner was incredibly friendly, and everything was very clean.

It was a wonderful stay even though the weather wasn't so good. The owner is a fantastic person. I highly recommend this place.

If you are considering booking on this hostel, please just go for it. Just to clarify, more than a hostel, this is a traditional Japanese guesthouse run by Mikiko (the owner/hostess) she is just

The best traditional hotel we've ever stayed in, perhaps the best hotel of any style! If you're lucky enough to book it, do it with your eyes closed.

Truly amazing, we felt so comfortable and welcome here, I miss it already. There is a large living area with comfy sofas, games and free tea/coffee.

This was a lovely stay for a family of four, traditional futon for everyone!

I had an amazing stay at Fuji Guesthouse — staff were so helpful and attentive and gave me all the information I needed for the area and to climb Mount Fuji.

After years of traveling, I have to say that this is one of the best hotels I have ever stayed in.
First, The staff is incredibly kind and attentive.

A fantastic villa with great Mount Fuji views.
We, a group of 3, stayed in the Indigo 3-bedroom Villa for 2 nights in March.

Ten Stars Easy! A Perfect Family Stay with Exceptional Service.
​This was a very clean, quiet, and spacious place that felt wonderfully cozy for our family.

The best guesthouse I’ve ever stayed in!
It was extremely clean, much bigger and more spacious than I expected. The atmosphere was friendly and relaxing, and the location was perfect.

Room was really nice, location was good, and staff were lovely. Also has a great coffee shop attached!

Lovely guest house, had a great time! The person working there is amazing!

Great location, right near the station so easily accessible. I just loved the smell of wood and how natural everything was. It was truly a unique and beautiful place to spend a couple nights.

The building is old, the floor are VERY squeaky, but it's beautiful. The staff are friendly and explain everything, the other guests are generally nice and you can make new friends.

My 2-night stay at K’s House Ito Onsen was wonderful. The traditional shared room and common area were great with a nice view of the river.

I really liked my stay here. The facilities are great, especially the large kitchen and the big common room and the outdoor theme really enhances the experience.

Our family of four enjoyed staying here. It's a budget place but they look after you well.

Nice and cozy in the midst of a forest. We saw the best stars here. This home stay is basic but very cozy and homely.

My partner and I stayed here overnight during our road trip through the area, and we were warmly welcomed by a kind and accommodating host who speaks excellent English.

Chill vibes, employees are cool and they speak some English if you need it. They give great recommendations on things to do in the Ito peninsula. Get the breakfast, it’s amazing.

They have a nice foods, and the room was si clean, all staf was so friendly.

10/5 stars. We stayed here on our honeymoon adventure, and staying here was a highlight of the trip. Mochiko Sen is a wonderful host that went above and beyond to make us feel welcome.

Place is in a cute spot thats not “too far” from Gekkouji Station but far enough from all the busy tourist traffic. Owner is a kind person who speaks English and is very helpful.

An absolutely wonderful, small and authentic place to stay, away from the usual tourist areas in Japan.

Such a cute hostel that my husband and I stayed in for 2 nights. It is a traditional Japanese ryokan. The rooms very perfect and even had a sink in room which was really convenient.

The rooms were great and cozy, and everything was kept clean. Bathroom facilities and kitchen amenities are maintained well, overall great stay!

This place provides nice rooms in a traditional Japanese style house with good facilities. It is located in the center of Takayama. Easy check-in and check-out process. Staff are friendly and helpful.
