Hotel & expansive open lawns & walkways offer fantastic unobstructed views of Mt Fuji (weather permitting). Hotel's location, up on a large hill top (45 minutes by all day hotel shuttle from Shizuoka Station), is not for everyone. You go there to see Mt Fuji ... not to shop.
But it is a clean, modern hotel with expansive 2 story plate glass windows providing breath taking views of Mt Fuji from lobby, dining areas & all public areas. Half of the hotel rooms have open balconies that face Mt. Fuji, for morning to evening views. Toshogu Shrine & ropeway are 3 minute shuttle ride or 15 minute walk.
