Top Kai Hotel Reviews

Konansou

8/10 Good

"For us this felt like a real traditional experience of a ryokan room style of an accommodation. The room with lake view was beautiful and being welcomed into it by a host was quite an experience, our host was wonderful. the hotel is not facing mt Fuji BUT it has roof top foot spa (!!!) with a fantastic view which is wonderful. The dinner in our room was an amazing experience also, a nice surprise. Important to note the space overall is not new or modern, feels a little tired and the hotel could do more to explain how the experience works. Take your guests on a journey."
