FUJI-VIEW HOTEL

This hotel has more than 80 years of history, founded in 1936. It is located on the shores of Lake Kawaguchiko and is situated in a great location overlooking Mt.Fuji. In spring, there are about 300 cherry blossoms blooming in the hotel’s garden, and many tourists come from far away to shoot Mt. Fuji and Cherry Blossoms.

Because it is possible to use a day-trip hot spring plan and a restaurant, if you have time, why not stop by leisurely?

History of the Hotel

It was completed in 1936. This is the first Western-style hotel in Yamanashi, built for the Tokyo Olympics, which was scheduled for 1940. There were two observation towers on the roof of the hotel at that time. The newly built hotel also has two observation towers.

In the summer of 1944 during World War II, the group of Germany embassies evacuated to the FUJI-VIEW HOTEL for a large air raid by US forces in Tokyo.

From 1945 to 1958, the hotel was closed to general business and was used primarily as a Rest-hotel for the US military and its families.

It is also known that the family of John Lennon came to this Hotel in 1978. The sign of John Lennon is still displayed in the lobby today.
