Top Apartments in Gotemba

Short walk to Gotemba outlet. We booked private onsen through the help of a friend as booking could only be done in Japanese when calling in prior to our trip. Room is considerably small and we didn't managed to see Mt fuji as it had been raining the whole day. Lucky enough, we chanced upon 10 mins fireworks specially for the outlet staff that night. Dinner in the restaurant was reasonably priced. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and will visit again.

Our room was a moderate twin room on 3/F (facing the podium car park which means no view). The room design was good - overall the room size was small (even in tokyo standard - not any bigger) bathroom was even smaller but still provides the essentials that you need. The hotel is more a business hotel which offers everything that you need (free yakult, ice bars, hot coffee, chocolate, ramen, comics corner, and more), hotspring and footbath. Everything you can name, just go and get them/ experience yourself. I appreciated the fact that the hotel has tried to put everything together in a compact space. There are 3 areas for free car parking, each of which is not big - the nearest car park 1 adjacent to the hotel is always full after 6pm. However, there is still no need to panic as another parking area 2 is just nearby (like 2 min walk). Breakfast was just okay - mostly Japanese with limited western choice. Last entry for breakfast is 9am which is very early, making the restaurant always packed during 8-9am. For the 3 nights spent there, our family of 3 had to sit on bar table for 2 days and queue outside to wait for a table (10 mins) on the last check-out day. The waiting was not a very pleasant experience afterall. During the Christmas holiday, the restaurant has also reached its max capacity and life would have been easier for staff and guests if they could extend the breakfast hours till later like other hotels at 10:30am. We will want to try other hotels in Gotemba next time.

Very interesting archetecture, great view of Mt. Fuji and a good price were why we choose this hotel. We arrived around 6 PM and were told we couldn't use the restaurant because we didn't have a reservation. We had to drive back to interstate about 15 minutes to find something, there is nothing at all in the hotel vicinity or even a little snack shop on site! Buses very limited. The front of the hotel was nicely painted and landscaped, but the back with patio was pretty shabby. But it did have seating outside for great fresh air. Parking was free but coming back after dinner the covered parking was all full and we had to park lower level in the rain. The room had a strange layout, a 3-mat room for a passageway (luggage drop?) and a small bedroom that one person could get out of bed on one side, but the other person had to crawl over the middle of the bed in the night to get out. In the closet were 2 hard hats?? In case Fujisan starts spewing ash? I think maybe this room was the staff's emergency room when forced to stay. The public bath was disappointingly small, so got crowded quickly. And the view? Of course it rained so no view of Mt. Fuji at all. Not in the hotel's control, but left us disenchanted... 4-star hotel. I don't think so.

We went to the Gotemba Outlet before checking in. So we took a taxi from the outlet to the hotel about 1600yen. Mr Santosh checked us in and also provided many information about the hotel neighbourhood. I told him I will write about him in my review :) The hotel is in good location, close to Uniqo, Daiso, supermarket and many eateries. We even walk to the nearby JR gotemba easily. The room is big and we stayed on the 4th level which is on the same level as the viewing terrace. We can see Mt Fuji very clearly during the opening hours. The breakfast was ok, standard Japanese style. The onsen was a bit small but still adequate. Overall, a very new hotel and worth staying with them. Upon checked out, we walked to the nearby tomei-gotemba and took the direct bus back to Shinjuku.

We stayed overnight on the way back from our trip from the Chita Peninsula. I could only see Mt. Fuji a little in the morning, but I enjoyed the hot springs in my room and the hot springs in the large communal bath. The teppanyaki dinner was delicious and I enjoyed talking with the chef. I would like to visit again if I have another chance. Thank you very much.

The high consumption in Japan is well known. The price is pretty good. Room facilities can only be said to sleep for one night and a half night without any requirements. It is more than 100 domestic express hotels. For breakfast, we may collect it half an hour later, and there is little left! Navigation to find the hotel, but the mobile phone navigation was wrong. Thanks to the Japanese guy who took us there. The language is not good!

Free parking, suitable for travelers with self-driving cars, breakfast is average. There is still some distance from Mount Fuji. The room does not face Mount Fuji. The hotel does not seem to provide a top floor for guests to view? There are public baths for bathing.

This time, when I went to stay, I felt very bad about the front staff who had short hair. We booked the wrong room So we asked what we should do next because we have both children and elderly people. He didn't try to help, couldn't speak English and communicated poorly. Plus secretly laughing like I'm a clown. We usually like to stay here. Even though the rooms look old, we feel close to the station. Next time we get married, we won't stay again. The breakfast room closes at 9:00 a.m. When we came down, there was no wait for us to eat, and they brought us food that looked like leftovers, as if there was a limited supply. He also acted displeased that we came at 8:00 a.m. On the last day, I met a younger person who was a good service person who looked after me to see what I wanted. There were only two old aunts who looked displeased every day when we went to eat breakfast. This time was the worst. There is a front staff who is a foreigner serving throughout the last year. We have always met them as lovely and always helping.

We stayed with a family of 4 people (one infant). I took a twin, but it was a pretty narrow impression in a room with almost only beds. The building and the room were outstanding, but the cleaning was well done. There are many restaurants around, and there are snacks and restaurants within walking distance, and there is a chain peculiar to Shizuoka (Numazu fish river bank sushi and refreshing) in a few minutes by car, and it was convenient to move by car. We were able to enjoy leisure such as outlets, safari parks and children's countries based here.
