Summary of traveller reviews

Kagelow Mt.Fuji Hostel Kawaguchiko offers a luxurious and comfortable stay, feeling more like a boutique hotel. Guests praise the exceptionally friendly and helpful staff, the stunning views of Mt. Fuji from the garden, and the spotless cleanliness. The spacious rooms and beds, along with well-equipped facilities like a restaurant and kitchen, are highlights. It's ideal for travellers seeking a relaxing retreat, though some note it's not very social and hallways can be cold.

A great hostel for using as a base to climb Fuji. Modern and clean with good facilities and helpful staff. Only recommendation would be a shelf inside your cubby for placing items that are charging as you pull them out while sleeping

Kagelow was a perfect home base for hiking Mt Fuji - the dorm was clean, quiet, safe, and just a short walk from Kawaguchiko station!
