Hotels with Parking in Minobu

This is a special place for anyone looking for a traditional stay in picturesque surroundings amongst Buddhist temples, nature trails and mountain views. The personnel went up and above to help us accommodate. Even though it was a bit chilly in December there was a heater in the room and the futon-bed was super-comfortable & warm. The vegetarian kaiseki dinner was served beautifully and well worth its price.

This is the best place you can stay not only in Japan, but also in the whole of Japan. And I say as a guide who brought numerous groups to Japan and lived here for years. Try it!

Beautiful and peaceful stay. Ken, the chief priest took care of us really well. We are well informed about Nichiren buddhism and led to join the evening chanting and morning chanting. Vegetarian dinner and breakfast was delicious. We enjoyed our stay!

As an European we loved Shimobe Hotel. We visited hotel to feel like Japanese people during vacation, and it was brilliant. We could dip our feet in hot water watching koi fish pool, we were invited to mash rice to make rice cakes during evening animations, and there is beautiful stone outdoor onsen. Everything was far beyond our expectations, and I recommend Shimobe Hotel to everyone seeking calmness, relax and friendly atmosphere in traditional Japanese style

Definitely a place to stay if you want to see Mt Fuji and its reflection on Lake Tanuki. There is a direct bus from Tokyo station and/or Mishima Station to the hotel, but with only a taxi option from Mt. Fuji station on Lake Kawaguchiko. Food is excellent, service is impeccable, and the onsen is to 'die for.'

I really enjoyed my stay at this hotel – the atmosphere is warm, stylish, and relaxing. The staff were always friendly and attentive, making me feel very welcome. Excellent service and a great vibe make this place easy to recommend!

Very friendly host, traditional tatami room and delicious breakfast. The accommodation is very clean and spacious and has views of the mountain.

Due to an error in Google Maps' vehicle information, we found out there were no cars available to return to the hotel. We faced a 3-hour walk from Asama Shrine to Shiraito Park, mostly uphill with barely any streetlights. Just when we were on the verge of breaking down and feeling helpless, the host kindly drove to pick us up and brought us back to the hotel. Without her help, we would’ve had to walk the entire way 😭😭😭. On top of that, the hotel’s environment is fantastic—stepping out the door, you’re greeted by a lovely garden, and just a few steps away is the stunning Shiraito Waterfall. It’s absolutely worth the long journey!

I found this homestay looking for a nice place near Mount Fuji at a cheap price, where I could admire the mountain and go on excursions in the surrounding area. I found everything here:) Both the place and the family that runs it are very nice. When you arrive at the station the hostess can pick you up in her car for a very affordable price. It is a very simple guest house with no frills, but it offers everything that the traveler needs, at a very reasonable price. Keep in mind that they also offer one free meal a day, whether lunch or dinner. In this sense, it surprised me. pleasantly, because I told them that I was vegetarian and they made an effort to cook something different and delicious every day, I’m very grateful for that. The accommodation itself has a restaurant with exquisite and carefully prepared dishes. The majestic Fuji is right above, you can see it when you leave the accommodation and walk a few steps, you can take beautiful photos. 20 meters from the rooms there is a very beautiful small waterfall and a stream over which the path runs to Take the bus to visit the town of Fujinomiya, it is located about 15 minutes walk along a beautiful path that runs through a forest and areas of more rural Japan. The bus will leave you in Fujinomiya in about 20 minutes, there you will find the Mount Fuji World Heritage Center, a modern facility where you will learn everything about Mount Fuji. Right next door are some food stalls where they offer the famous Fujinomiya Yakisoba and two steps away is the Fujisan Hongu Sengen Taisha Shrine. There is another beautiful excursion to visit Shiraito Falls. there are much more things to do, for example visit some of the Onsen in the area, just ask to your hostess. The accommodation has only been on Booking.com for a very short time, previously they only hosted local people, so they will appreciate your advice to improve the service and its facilities. In short, a great base for visiting Fuji and its surroundings.

It was a beautiful environment, an authentic and real Japanese house, and what I liked most is the communication, helpfulness, kindness and the company of Itaru. He cooked an amazing dinner for us and it was the first time I didn’t feel like a tourist but like part of the daily life of locals there. It was perfect.
