Shizuku: Private Room Inn with Sauna and Views of Mount Fuji

When we arrived, it was cloudy, and Mount Fuji was not visible from the room. Although we specifically chose a room with a view of Mount Fuji, to our surprise, the clouds cleared around 5 PM, and we could see it clearly. The dinner was beyond words—visually stunning and absolutely delicious. The freshly baked bread at breakfast was also exceptional. This is an accommodation I would love to visit again after saving up some money. I’ve already recommended it to my friends!

I was attracted to the room with a sauna and stayed one night in the deluxe twin.The design of the hotel and the rooms is just so cute! It makes you excited just looking at it.I was happy that the amenity box and free towels had original designs. I appreciated that two bath towels were provided per person. The loungewear is also cute and comfortable to wear. In terms of size, it seemed fine for someone 170 cm and 155 cm tall. The in-room sauna warms you up gently and allows you to sweat properly. The mild cold bath and outdoor air bath were also excellent.The public bath sauna is properly hot, the cold bath is cold, and there is an outdoor air bath, which is also nice. There are only two hairdryers, so you might have to wait sometimes. (Even though there is an in-room sauna, many sauna enthusiasts might use both.) However, you can wait leisurely while drinking detox water, so it's not a problem.The meals, both dinner and breakfast, were very satisfying! The taste was, of course, great, and the explanation of the dishes was enjoyable, making the meals even more delicious. The dishes incorporating ingredients from Yamanashi Prefecture and elements of Finland are something you can only taste here.If I were to mention something that could be improved, it would be to keep the area near the front desk a bit brighter until the public bath is open.It was a truly enjoyable stay. The warm hospitality of the young master, young mistress, and all the staff, the seasonal dishes, and the various room layouts made me strongly want to stay again and again. I especially recommend this inn to sauna enthusiasts.
