Southern Cross Resort

Better by car coming here. Old hotel but bigger than others. Excited viewing Fuji mountain from my room window this morning.

The hotel is quite far from the bus station, but they do offer a free shuttle to Kawana Station, which helps a lot. Breakfast is okay, but they serve the same menu every day, so it gets a bit repetitive if you’re staying more than two nights. They also don’t provide complete toiletries—there’s no toothbrush or cotton buds—which was a bit inconvenient. On the plus side, housekeeping was consistent and delivered fresh towels every day. Just a heads-up that there’s no à la carte option for dinner, so food choices are pretty limited overall.

Much better than staying at a business hotel in the winter season. Close to downtown by car, Aeon, etc. Nice lunch. Room is very old with an old style bathroom and no wash let. But it has a nice bath and golf course. Stuck up rich people but nice place.

The cleanliness is terrible. I booked the best grade of that hotel for two days. The first room that I got is so terrible (look at the photos) and I requested the hotel to change the room. In the second day, they gave me the another room which is a little better, but the cleanliness is still lower. I can even remember the dust smell😖. The accessibility is also hard without car.
