湖雲荘 (Kounso)

星評価は宿泊施設情報（サービス・設備など）に対するKlookの総括であり、あくまでも参考用です。

hotel is old, but it should be okay. many old hotels are cozy. here don't have central heater, no heating conditions. they use old heating machine. once reach set temperature, it will shut down after a while. so 2 hours it can drop from 26 to 14 degree. frozen at night, you have to wake up to turn on again. and washing room is separated, even room temperature is 26, washing room is frozen. I catched cold next day, ruin the following trip with running nose and bad appetize. I don't know summer. but don't come at winner time. you will regret.

Loved the stay at Kounso. The room was spacious and had extra bedding that could be used to fit your preference. Each room gets to reserve a time for the large bathrooms. Absolutely loved the cypress bath, it was perfect after a long day. Chose not to use the room heater because of the kerosene smell. Instead, the kotatsu table was plenty warm for this time of year. The location was very close to plenty of food and lake adventures. The owner was very helpful and friendly, even towards my limited Japanese speaking. Will definitely return.

I was not sure about the shared bath, but each room reserves time slots, so you do not bath with strangers. I loved the cypress bath, it was perfect after a long day.

The location was very close to plenty of food and lake adventures. The owner was very helpful and friendly, even though I only knew a few words in Japanese. I visited alone, but I hope to bring my whole family for our next visit.

Host was just the sweetest,

Great location, very near Lake Yamanaka. We had the hotel all to ourselves, but the owners made sure we were looked after very well, making great efforts to get the bath ready for us. The garden autumn colours were radiant and playing pool in the lobby with my son and wife was priceless!

Very nice little tucked away guesthouse. The couple that run it are very friendly and helpful. They literally contacted me five minutes after booking to explain how to find them and check in. It's very clean and up kept. Will definitely book again in the future!

It was an excellent choice to experience a Japanese ryokan. Specially considering the price. Very traditional and an amazing service. We really hope to come back.

The Onsen bath was an unexpected bonus, as was the pool table and the traditional Japanese furnishings.

This is a very pleasant and spotlessly clean guesthouse set back from the lake (and the main road around it) along an alley. My room backed onto a forest and was very pleasant. A good western style cooked breakfast is available; order the day before. There are several good restaurants back on the lakeside within easy walking distance.

Very nice place!
