Located close to Tokyo, the Fuji Hakone National Park is a popular tourist destination because of its temperate climate and stunning views of Mt. Fuji. The park was designated on February 1, 1936, and the opening of this hotel followed soon thereafter. Here, the lake bustles with summer sportsmen, and the hotel sits at the base of the majestic, pastel-colored mountain.
