Buffet dinner and breakfast had lots of variety both Japanese and Western style. Assigning round for dinner help to reduce the traffic. Outdoor onsen is nice with Fuji view. Garden within the hotel is good for social media content!!

What could be improved: Size of onsen is too small compare number of guest rooms so it might be crowded sometimes.

What could be improved: The shower screen was not clean, Clearly they don't expect people to use the shower when you are paying an onsen tax even if you don't use it. More detailed instructions on how to tie and wear a yakuta would have been helpful.

What could be improved: After spending several hundred euros for a room i found it quite ridiculous that i had to make my own bed and that we had to pay extra the funny amount of 3 euros at check out for onsen use… this could have been simply included in the price. The only justification for the price is the excellent location.

Good variety and good choice of food for both breakfast and dinner, although a little noisy when crowded. Fabulous view of Mt Fuji from viewing garden if not blocked by clouds.

What could be improved: Nothing much. A little disappointed that nearby ropeway was closed.

Great views of Fuji on a clear day. Onsen was great. What could be improved: Staff seemed disinterested in guest comfort or satisfaction. Our toilet seat didn’t fit properly and moved around with no lid. I complained to the desk and they said that was how it always had been.

Great views of Fuji on a clear day. Onsen was great.

What could be improved: Staff seemed disinterested in guest comfort or satisfaction. Our toilet seat didn’t fit properly and moved around with no lid. I complained to the desk and they said that was how it always had been. Looking at the identical room next door during cleaning I could see that was not the case.. At dinner they came while you were eating and told you that your time (90 min allotment) would so couldn’t relax with your meal.

The Mt Fuji views were amazing.
We enjoyed the onsen experience each day.
The ropeway was easy to get to and took us to the lake and into gora, so we could explore surrounding attractions.
There was a beautiful Christmas performance with a pianist, violinist and viola player, as well as complimentary Christmas drinks at dinner.
The buffet breakfast and dinner had a good variety of Japanese and Japanese style Western food - all very good quality and fresh.
Staff were lovely.

What could be improved: The location was both great and challenging.
The closest transport is the ropeway- like a cable car- and signage stated last trip 4.15pm.
The buses didn’t run to the timetable and after waiting 50 minutes for a bus (3 didn’t show), we missed the last trip- walked the 20 minutes back to the hotel up a very steep hill. Few taxis available and the hotel shuttle phone number went to message bank.
Despite this hiccup, we loved our time at hotel green plaza.

Philippa from New Zealand (15 December 2024)

8/10

It had an atmosphere that was relaxing and calming. The staff at reception were the best we experienced.

What could be improved: The property is dated and in need of a redo. Our room was very old with pealing paper. However, we would stay again as it didn't impact our stay at all.
