รีวิวและความประทับใจจากผู้เข้าพักที่ Fugaku Hanabusa

Enjoy a renowned hot spring while taking in views of sacred Mount Fuji.

Fugaku Hanabusa is a wonderful hot-spring Accommodation where you can enjoy renowned baths while taking in views of sacred Mt. Fuji. It seems they are currently offering only Rooms with Mt. Fuji views, so on a clear day you can see Mt. Fuji from the window of any Room. At check-in we were served a welcome drink, and there is also a lounge on the second floor where you can enjoy complimentary soft drinks in the evening and morning. You can see Mt. Fuji through its large windows, and even the large public bath offers Mt. Fuji views from big windows as well. This was our first visit. Unfortunately it was cloudy on the first day and we couldn’t see Mt. Fuji, but the next morning brought perfectly clear skies, and we were able to admire beautiful snow-capped Mt. Fuji—just like in the photos—from both our Room and our private open-air bath (it’s more like a semi open-air bath since it’s opened to the outside via windows). By the way, the complimentary drinks are non-alcoholic—which makes perfect sense, as drinking too much before bathing can be dangerous. The hot-spring water itself was truly excellent. I had been bothered by thickened skin on my soles, but after soaking many times, it came off smoothly while washing—such a surprise. “Beauty bath” really is an accurate description. I was told the water is set to 41.5°C, so hotter water flows in at times—too hot so I get out, then back in because it feels so good—repeating this again and again. In total I ended up bathing 13 times: 5 before dinner, 3 after dinner, once before breakfast after waking up, and twice more after breakfast until checkout! My previous record for one night was 8 times, so this easily surpassed it. I think this was possible because they kindly let us into our Room early even though we arrived ahead of schedule due to train timing—and also because checkout at 11:00 is exceptionally generous for a Ryokan. It also helped that there were so many options: an open-air bath in the Room, three reservable private open-air baths, plus a large public bath. The meals were beautifully presented and delicious one by one (as shown in the photos), and every staff member we interacted with was genuinely pleasant—making for an extremely satisfying stay. The building has some age to it, but it appears to be well renovated; we also heard another renovation is planned for this May. I’m sure it will become an even more wonderful Accommodation. It offers excellent value for money as well—I would love to return again. Thank you very much for taking such good care of us during our stay.
