Those that uve stayed before?

Ill be travelling in Nov, looks like alot of accomodation already fully booked esp 20-ish onwards! 23rd nov Sunday is their labour day, inliew Monday 24th...will be a verry very crowded autumn i suppose.

Have never stayed before but Utano Youth hostel in Kyoto is highly recommended by travel sites like tripadvisor

Thanks

which one you purchased? your trip is in december right?

Anyone having the experiences traveling from Tokyo to Mount Fuji in a Day trip, how long it takes in total and estimate cost if only visit the mountain.

Also anyone having experience visiting the kirin Beer distillery near the Mount Fuji?

Will be going to Japan on November, land at Narita Airport. Will be check in hotel at Arakawa.. any suggestion where is the best visit place around there? Worried about the train transportation thou

In kyoto, backpacker hostel k's house kyoto,
Been stayed 4 nite on the dorm with 6 share room, clean, efficient and friendly hostel, suitable for people like to cook, have fully and modern kitchen for cooking, free coffee, cooking oil, salt, sugar etc. Have 600ft^2 hall for guest to meet up , with sofa and table while enjoy their food. But need book it early, fill up rate pretty fast.

In osaka, Oasis hotel in Tennogy station was a clean and nice hotel, kitchen was small for light cooking. Near to subway and train station, the price is reasonable.

Hi senpais....

Im going to Japan next summer.
I will be based in Nagoya (will use JR Pass, no budget constraint, just time) and planning to take scenic pictures of Mount Fuji.
Which place is better to go for a day trip from Nagoya to see Mount Fuji?
Is it Shizuoka city, Shin-Fuji or Fujinomiya? Gotemba seems too far, and im not really into shopping. Any other suggestion?
