    I went to Kawaguchiko back in 2017 and was happy I got to see Mt. Fuji with some snow on it but this was truly amazing! I'm hopeful to stay there again one day.
    EDIT: I see the answer in a below comment.

    • @Ko_Abroad

      All rooms at Ubuya offer a view of the lake and Mt.Fuji. The particular room type we stayed in was called ‘Standard room with private bath’.

    Hi. May I ask whether the water in the private outdoor bath (together with the room) of Ubuya and Kogetsu, are they onsen spring water or just normal hot water? From what I read, seems like it is hot water for Ubuya and onsen spring water for Kogetsu. Much tks for your reply!

    • @Ko_Abroad

    Hi, first of all the video is stunning! You managed to get beautiful views of Mt Fuji during your stay.
    I was planning on going to kawaguchiko as well and contemplating between both of the ryokans you have featured. What would be your recommendation between the two? Are the prices nearly similar?
    Which room did you end up booking for Ubuya?
    I'm also unsure of Shuhoukaku Kogetsu has western beds because I'll be travelling with family and futons will be difficult due to age and mobility issues.
    Thanks so much for your patience with my questions!

    • @Ko_Abroad
      @Ko_Abroad  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi, thanks for the compliment ☺️
      The price depends on the type of room booked. We booked the standard room with private open air bath at Ubuya and the standard Japanese room at Shuhoukaku Kogetsu (there are several options for Western rooms and the ryokan is undergoing upgrades at the moment).
      Overall we liked Ubuya better but the view from the balcony at Shuhoukaku Kogetsu was the most spectacular we saw.
