  By far the most unique AirBnB we’ve ever stayed in. We had a car, so this was very conveniently located to do the Hakone tourism circuit and also get close... read more up views of Fuji to the northwest (Lake Kawaguchi). The space itself is a converted retro movie theater with tons of cool related cinema memorabilia. The host has added a great projection/audio setup to the theater itself with lots of streaming options available. The rest of the place has plenty of space and beds, with all the amenities you’d need. It’s located in a lively part of town very close to the train station. The host is also very friendly, helpful, and communicative. If we ever find ourselves in the Hakone region again, we definitely would like to stay here again.

  Genuinely the coolest, best place! Definitely will be returning 🙂

  Kosuke is a great Host, even showed us a great place to eat within the city. The Cinema is excellent and the rooms are great.

  One place that you'll wanna visit again soon. A big screen for movie, a warm place for gathering. All you need is having your friends to visit this place together... read more and enjoy Kosuke's magic bnb.

  Highly recommended this fabulous house to all of you . It’s an unexpected experience and probably our best Airbnb experience! Kokuse San is very kind and friendly to his guests.... read more He even prepared some snacks for us to enjoy with the theatre.

Btw thank you so much for keep these good old things and thank you for loving Hong Kong!

  We loved our stay at this very unique AirBnB. If we return to Gotemba, we'll definitely stay there again!

  My friend and I had a fantastic stay at Kosuke’s place. You can really feel the thought and care he’s put into every detail. The private cinema was a highlight—such... read more a fun and relaxing experience to have all to ourselves. The space is beautifully decorated and stocked with every amenity you could need. 10/10 would absolutely stay again—just wish we had one more night!

  I actually came to Gotemba just to stay at Kosukes place and I must say it was unquestionably worth it. As a film lover it was an a magical... read more and surreal experience. I was the only guest that night so I had the whole space to myself. The theater is fantastic and care and detail in every corner of the space was a joy to walk around and discover. Next time I come back to Japan, I will definitely be visiting again.

  What a wonderful experience. I sat in the theater with my two daughters watching movies as if I was a king.

  Super unique stay, definitely try this if you are headed to Gotemba!

  great place to stay! I would definitely come back again if I'm in town! super awesome for people who wants to relax after a long day to watch movies!

  This is a great place. The Theatre Room is spectacular and perfect when you need to chill out during your trip in Japan. The host - that you actually meet... read more in person - is very welcoming, helpful and eager to make your staying as nice as possible, while never being intrusive. The place is also greatly decorated with lots of charm - not like many other Airbnb places that are impersonal and look like an Ikea store - and has a great book library. Highly recommended.

  Great place to stay.

  Kosuke’s place is the best airbnb place I’ve been to! Super unique and well worth the money for the opportunity to live in an old/restored theater (DIY project by... read more Kosuke)! Everything was super clean, the bathrooms were neat to use, and the bed sheets were soooo comfy. Next time I’m visiting Japan, I will make a point to stay at this unique airbnb for a week instead of a few days. There are so many tasty restaurants near by!

  I wish I could give this stay 6 stars. Kosuke was the nicest airbnb host I have stayed with in my 7 years using this app. The place is incredible... read more and the pictures do not do it justice. This man has done a wonderful job reconstructing this beautiful theater into an incredible inn. The place is spotless, and he has all the amenities you will need for your time there. He is so kind and helpful, coming to help us when we were lost getting to his stay, and even sharing great places to eat and see while in Gotemba. The stay is 3 minutes from the train station which is super convenient for traveling from Gotemba, or even taking the bus up to Mt Fuji for a hike. There are plenty of onsen(thermal baths) near this stay, so you can really do it all from this area. He even offered us bikes that we used to coast around the area. Besides the stay, Kosuke is a very kind person, and I plan to return here in the near future to see how his work on this theater has progressed.

  Really cool space to have a chill night in. Very impressed with Kosuke’s DIY, can tell it’s a great passion project. Kosuke was responsive and very accomodating with check-in and... read more recommendations around town. Would be great to go with a group of friends but also very special just the two of us. Would definitely go back! Thanks Kosuke

  This is one of the coolest AirBnBs out there. Kosuke has put a lot of time and love into this place and it shows in the details.

  Friendly host, unique place with a full-size cinema!

  This place is truly unique, situated in a very pleasant and conveniently located area. You're just a short walk to delicious lunch and dinner options, and a quick turn reveals... read more the stunning views of Mount Fuji. The host, Kasuke-san, is exceptionally kind and incredibly helpful. I highly recommend this place.

  By far the coolest Airbnb we’ve ever stayed in!

Kosuke was also kind enough to leave us some waffles for breakfast and let us borrow bicycles to explore Gotemba with. 🙂
Communication was easy and instructions were clear.
Would 100% recommend - having the cinema screen to ourselves was a one off experience and worth visiting Gotemba for alone.

  Bu eşsiz Airbnb deneyimi kesinlikle unutulmazdı! Sinemalı bir evde konaklama fikri zaten çok cazipti, ama gerçek deneyim beklentilerimizin çok ötesine geçti. Evin dekorasyonu özenle düşünülmüş ve hem estetik hem de... read more konfor açısından kusursuzdu. Sinema odası tam anlamıyla bir harikaydı; kaliteli ekipmanları ve rahat oturma düzeni sayesinde kendimizi gerçekten bir sinema salonunda gibi hissettik. Film izlerken keyifli vakit geçirmek için ideal bir yer!

Bunun yanı sıra evin diğer alanları da çok temiz ve düzenliydi. Konforlu yataklar, ihtiyaç duyabileceğiniz her şeyi bulabileceğiniz bir mutfak ve huzurlu bir ortam vardı. Ev sahibimiz ise inanılmaz derecede misafirperver ve samimiydi. Girişten çıkışa kadar her konuda çok yardımcı oldu, iletişimi oldukça hızlıydı ve kendimizi özel hissettirmek için ekstra çaba gösterdi.

Kısacası her şey mükemmeldi!

  This was one of the coolest Airbnb's I've ever stayed at. Host was nice and responsive and easily adapted to a last minute guest add. The Airbnb itself is so... read more unique and there are cool movie-esque touches everywhere. There's also an AMAZING pizza place right across the street, ask the host for the name, it's the best pizza we've had in Japan. The best part was watching Anime on the big screen and enjoying snacks & drinks. I would definitely stay again if in the area!

  The theater is so cool, I love feeling like I have my own private showing. The bathroom area is nice and clean with towels provided. You can have some snacks... read more like popcorn and coffee provided which I loved. I got locked out of my room by mistake when going to the restroom at night so either bring your key with you or take out the battery for the self locking mechanism, although this happened very late kosuke was able to help me. The theater and lobby are under construction so please understand there is a construction smell but the common area and living rooms are very nice. The iPad to play music made the experience that much more comfortable. Also it’s right across the street from the station which makes catching any bus (including the free premium outlet bus) v Ty simple.

  Sehr schicke Unterkunft da ein altes Kino umgebaut wurde. Der Betreiber ist sehr freundlich.

  Wow. One of the best Airbnb’s I have stayed at. Thanks to the hosts passion and creativity the theater has been restored in beautiful and thoughtful ways. It was an... read more immersive experience that I wish I could have enjoyed longer.The bnb is large with several rooms and beds. 2 different shower rooms and toilets. Large living room, kitchen, and an even larger theater, of course. Everything you could need and more. I stayed in January so my only note is of course it was a bit cold You should definitely use the heaters and blankets the host provides. The cold was no problem tho because the host offered many times information on heating and extra blankets. The host was very responsive and helpful on every request and question. He even waited for us to arrive at maybe 9pm so he could show us around and how to use the facilities.It is directly across from the station. Just a few minutes walk.Walk down the street one minute and you see Mt. Fuji! I would write more but out of space. Thanks!

  Kosuke was very helpful with both the check in and check out process. The hotel ascetic was unique and the theater room was a fantastic way to relax.

  We enjoyed the spaciousness of Kosuke’s place. As described, it feels like a home but not one filled with Ikea furnishings. It is rare to have 2 showers and 2... read more toilets in a Japanese home and that appealed to us immensely. Kosuke is a great host. He checked on us to make sure we settled into the apartment we well. He has heating devices to warm the beds which we loved.

  Kosuke is a great host. The place is unique and beautiful

  Coolest AirBnB I've ever stayed in! Great location (right next to Gotemba Station), and the host (Kosuke) was very responsive to messages. Would stay again!
