Family hotels and homes in Ichikawadaimon

The view was great. It’s fun barbecue and set up bonfire just outside the cabin. The staff were very friendly. Although some of them do not speak fluent English, they were always trying to help.

Very nice place to stay. Don’t miss it. I will tell my friends to stay there.

Everything was great, very attentive staff, good facilities and good food.

The hosts are wonderfull and the food is really great. We had fireworks at the campfire :D

We had a very(!) big Japanese style room. Absolutely special to experience this. The room was very clean, which is particularly remarkable because of its old style. Dinner and breakfast were both top-level.

The host is very welcoming. And prepared for us on every way. The house is excellent, well designed very nicely.

Modern, clean and spacious, with great amenities in the suite such as sauna, spa bath, bbq, covered outdoor dining area, and a projector to watch movies on in the evening. I also really like the new spa like bathroom. Overall this was a great base for our family as we explored the Aokigahara forest and nearby lake area. After spending time in small hotel rooms in Tokyo, the space was appreciated. It’s a great option for people who want to self cater and are independent travellers not requiring additional service or ‘frills’ yet appreciate quality, clean, and modern amenities.

Actually booked this place by accident. I thought i had booked Nishiyama Onsen Keiunkan. When i showed up to the hotel I thought i had booked, it was more elegant, and honestly more uppity than i was expecting. I sensed they were put off by my excited kids, and knew we'd be walking on eggshells the whole time. So i wasnt super upset when we learned I had accidentally booked another place 18 km away! I had been corresponding with the hotel operator by email, who seemed pleasant enough, but I hadn't the first clue what kind of place i had actually booked. So we were beyond excited when we arrived to find, what to my foreign eyes seemed like an absolutely authentic traditional japanese home. It looked like a movie set. The owner showed us around the property, then he went home. The kids and I high-fived! We got the traditional setting we had wanted, but we could relax alone on a mountainside. The setting is a tad rustic. I loved that about the place. Heating is by woodburning stove that you feed yourself (electric space heaters there as well). There is a full kitchen there, and what we didnt know ahead of time, is that there is primitive outdoor grilling/cooking facilities. That made a few confusing exchanges with the property operator suddenly make sense. Although it sounded in other reviews that possibly the property owner provided meat to be grilled, we had been asked to bring our own food. We didnt understand that that meant grillable items. But anyway, we loved the place. It would be perfect for a large group of 7, possibly more, to stay for more than one day and get big preplanned meals going on the woodfired grill.

Breakfast is delicious. The spa service with ice bars is satisfying.
