Mt. Fuji, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of Japan’s iconic landmarks, is a sight many travelers hope to capture from every angle. The Fujisan Hotel in Yamanashi Prefecture, which offers clear views of Mt. Fuji and Lake Yamanaka, has recently launched a new promotion. From January 12 to 24, guests who experience more than one minute without a view of Mt. Fuji from check-in to check-out will receive a free accommodation voucher for their next stay.

The Fujisan Hotel has a history of over 50 years. Thanks to its location, guests can enjoy stunning views such as the red Mt. Fuji at sunrise and the diamond-shaped Mt. Fuji when the sun aligns with the peak—making it a favorite among travelers.

To attract more guests, the Fujisan Hotel is running the “Can’t See Mt. Fuji This Time? Stay Free Next Time” campaign. From January 12 to 24, guests staying for any period of more than one minute without a view of Mt. Fuji (including nighttime hours) will be given a free double-room voucher for a future stay. The voucher must be used by June 30, 2016, and is not valid during the Golden Week holiday period (April 29 – May 7). For details, visit theFujisan Hotel official website.
