Originally opened in 1963, the world-renowned 150-room hotel is perched atop Mount Odeyama at an elevation of 1,100 metres, offering breathtaking, uninterrupted views of Mount Fuji – the country’s tallest and most sacred peak. Overlooking Lake Yamanaka, the property is famous for its unique location and rich heritage as a hotel specifically built for viewing Mount Fuji.
Hotel Mount Fuji will undergo extensive renovation before reopening as Hotel Mount Fuji, Vignette Collection. It will join two other celebrated properties – RIGHA Royal Hotel Osaka and The Windsor Hotel TOYA – within Vignette Collection’s growing portfolio in Japan, contributing to the brand’s global footprint of more than 79 open and pipeline hotels.
Guests at Hotel Mount Fuji, Vignette Collection can enjoy the natural beauty of the Fuji Five Lakes region all year round. The hotel will feature a variety of dining options, on-site hot springs, a sauna, swimming pool, and easy access to nearby activities including golf, lake cruises, and visits to local attractions such as Oshino Hakkai, the World Heritage site.
Thanks to its elevated location, visitors may also enjoy an evening’s star gazing and, during certain seasons, witness the mesmerising “sea of clouds” – a natural phenomenon where fog blankets the ground, creating the illusion that the hotel is floating.
Hotel Mount Fuji, Vignette Collection is easily accessible by car, approximately two hours from Tokyo. Visitors may also travel by bus, taking 2 hours 20 minutes from Shinjuku Expressway Bus Terminal, and met by a hotel shuttle service.
