noctarium/マウント劇場

  Amazing space for watching films and experiencing local places. Theater has historical significance so it’s cool that it’s kept alive with a place to stay and private screenings. The bathroom... read more and showers are modern and the water pressure is like a massage. Bed is comfortable.
Kitchen had everything we needed for making food as well as fresh beans for coffee and good waffle breakfast.
Music plays in every room as you wish with a tablet so you can choose the vibe.
The local recommendations for food and coffee are fantastic.
Streaming device has options and host makes it easy to connect to hdmi but if you are coming from outside Japan make sure your devices work well ahead of time. I was able to get some classic films working on YouTube after criterion and hbo max failed completely for certain movies (mirroring did not work even if downloaded). Netflix on the host device had a few English subtitle films but most I searched for were not. Hope to visit again in warm weather.

  Had a wonderful stay and Kosuke was a great host. The pictures really don’t do the space justice. The entire place has a lot of history and is a really... read more unique space. Great for a couples getaway or even with a group of friends to hang out. The theater room is really the highlight, with a cozy setup and amazingly big screen and sound system. You really get a private movie theater all to yourself! The location is also amazing. Literally a couple minutes from Gotemba station and located right next to some amazing restaurants. We were pleasantly surprised by the great food served at the nearby izakayas.

I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking to travel to Gotemba.

  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!

  Really cool space to have a chill night in. Very impressed with Kosuke’s DIY, can tell it’s a great passion project.

  The best AirBnB we've ever stayed at. Movie theater was incredible and we loved Gotemba--many restaurants and bars just steps away. We hope to come back again someday.

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

  Outstanding from start to finish. What an amazing place, coupled with an incredible host. Our only regret was not staying at least 2 nights. Easily the most unique Airbnb we... read more have stayed at. We are a large family of 5 (three daughters) and everything was available for our needs from the kitchen to the bathroom. There are 2 large grocery stores in walking distance with one that closes at 2000 and the other open 24 hrs. We used this as a rest stop between Osaka and Tokyo (driving). Parking was included and was able to accommodate a Toyota Vellfire (full size van) without issue. If you like to cook, this place is perfect for you. Gran some fresh groceries, cook a nice meal and enjoy fabtastic drinks while watching a movie on the big screen that's all yours! Lastly, would recommend bringing your favorite DVD, Nintendo switch (console not included, but sync station available), or laptop with downloaded movies (HDMI port available). Also possible to airplay/android cast. Thank you for all!

The place itself is unlike any Airbnb I’ve experienced. The movie theater is huge and it’s easy to hook up your computer and sit back on one of the many couches to a movie or sports event on a massive screen with an theater grade sound system. The non bunk bed room is very nice, as well as the bunk beds and each door has its own lock. Kotsuke lives upstairs so he is available, but he gave us our privacy the whole time.
Could fit 10 comfortably, has two showers two bathrooms. Has a washer.

There are all these little touches around the place that make it such an experience. So many surprises and little touches to the place. So much more to say, but I’ve hit the character limit. Do not miss out!

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.

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