This is not a hotel. It’s a hostel. The superior room is a square tatami mat floor with a poor working air conditioner. Private shower… nope. Everything is shared. The price I paid for the stay did not meet the expectations. I tried to leave a day early as it was so bad. Don’t be fooled. Left early anyways. Tried to get some sort of refund, but the host denied. Expedia tried for me, but was denied. You can find many better places near by.

It’s my first time staying in a hostel with shared toilet and bathroom facilities. It was a good experience as everything is clean and there are only 5 rooms at this place. It’s just diagonally across the station. You get beautiful views of mt Fuji from just standing outside.

This place is close to train and bus station. There's no person to check in or out. For checking in you have to use some tablet in the front, but it didn't work for me to check in. Also some locks seams doesn't work properly. During my stay someone knocked on my door after 11pm waking up us because their lock doesn't work and nobody there to help them. Really basic facility just for one quick night stay maybe OK otherwise don't recommend.

Me and friends stayed in 1 bedroom with 3 futons for 3 nights, the room was clean and tidy and very comfortable. As a hostel, there are many tourist and bag-packers and don't care much about cleaning the communal spaces but someone from the hostel came to clean every day, and that was very good! The hostel provides, slippers, shampoo, conditioner and washing and drying cloth. Location is perfect! very close to the Kawaguchiko station. I think is a very good hostel. thank you

It’s an old place. Hard to find. Worst part - Sleep on the thin futon on the floor; no bed. My back was aching. But it has great comfortable blankets. The best thing is its location near the visitor center, train-bus stations, and restaurants.

This place would be an okay place to stay if the Heater worked. Especially during winter. The room that we stayed in had no working heater and the room was as cold as the outside. It was -3c. We contacted the hostes and she basically said there was nothing we could do. So we slept 3 nights in freezing temperatures. Honestly its worth paying extra to stay in another place and a place that has an onsen.

I also stayed at a Wafu guesthouse close by. We happen to book Samurise hostel due to typhoon conditions through Expedia. This is super close to the station. It’s just across really. I’ve also stayed previously in Ubuya Ryokan (min. 600 per night) this is like a budget version of the room. Minus the private bathroom and posh linens with views, this place is clean cut traditional. Wafu hostel looks like my friend’s parents old home with over 100 plates on display. T at Salurise Fuji hostel, there’s complimentary washing machine. My only complain is the shower because I can’t quite get the temperature right with another person using the other shower. Overall, it’s a fabulous stay.

I can sum up our stay at Samuris with 1 word; interesting. There is not a chair in the whole place. Our room has a double bunk bed, but only floor sitting as in tatami. I see other rooms are all tatami. It is OK for young folks. As we are seniors, sitting on the floor for any lenght of time is a challenge. Getting up is even worse. Otherwise the place is quite nice. Very Japanese feel. It has everything we need. We share the facilities with 4 other rooms of people. It remind me of my younger yeays in the service. We were lucky. Most of the other guests were nice and quiet. Except for our last night there came a group of 4/5 people from across the hall who were rather loud sometimes. After midnight all were quiet. So it is all good. The place is near the main station (5 min walk). You can plan your activites literally from the sta. The walls are thin. Bring some ear plugs just in case. I brought mine but never needed them. 1 more observation, there are only little paper cups and lots of tea bags. Our room has a kettle. A microwave oven is in the laundry room. Interesting. O, a last and perhaps least thing is the toilet seat is heated. At 1st it felt nice. No more cold contacts. But after a few minutes it heats up my bum and makes it sweaty. Rather uncomfortable. May be it's just me. Cheers! Thank you Samurise. We enjoy the stay.

很安靜的日式旅館

離河口湖車站很近, 位於巷子裏因此很安靜。這間是舊日式房舍改裝, 廁所浴室在房間外, 各有二間所以很夠用。房間門是密碼鎖, 在入口自行登入資料後即會取得密碼, 建議先拍照保存以免忘記。
