We were just looking for a reasonably priced hotel to stay overnight. This seemed quite luxurious for the price. The main business seems to be a spa, but the hotel rooms are spacious and very comfortable. I'm not sure that they get many customers through hotels.com as they had trouble locating our reservation and even after they found it couldn't tell that it had already been prepaid via the website so they asked for payment again and had to go into the back to check when I told them it was already paid. Other than that bit of confusion at check-in, the facility was very nice. Since I speak Japanese it was fine, but it seemed like it might have been a bit confusing for them to figure it out if I hadn't been able to speak Japanese. Also, there's not much in the immediate neighborhood, but we did get an incredible view of Mt. Fuji from across a barren field just up the road when we left the next morning.
