Koan Inn

If you are planning a trip to somewhere nice and cool in summer,
Kawaguchi Lake is the place.
It is a resort area at the foot of Mount Fuji.



And if you are going to Kawaguchi Lake, Koan Inn, owned by Mr. and Mrs. Shimada, was one of the best petit hotels i've ever been to. They opened this hotel after retirement. Very nice people.

The interior is mainly antique English furniture,but you can feel some old Japanese taste in its layout.

Food is awsome.
It is mainly Japanese cuisine, the main dish is Soba (Japanese noodle) freshly made by Mr. Shimada. Sooooo good. Tasty and good for your health. It is nice and quiet because of the surrounding trees.

You can access Koan by car or by bus from Kawaguchiko Station.
Unfortunately they don't have an English website, so if you are interested, contact us and we can arrange your reservation!

Check out their website. Only in Japanese, but you can see pictures
