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.

Amazing stay at Kosuke-san’s place - he was an incredible host who went the extra mile: providing us extra blankets when the weather got cold, driving out to assist us... read more when we got stuck in Hakone due to the weather and then offering alternatives when the weather made it hard for him to reach us, and just communicating really well throughout our stay. We appreciate Kosuke-san as a host so much, and will recommend this place to anyone visiting Gotemba!

If you are a movie enthusiast, this is a great place to stay as you are literally staying in an old movie theatre. It needs some polish however you can... read more tell he has put his blood, sweat & tears to renovate and decorate the place. If you can appreciate the finer details, you will love its uniqueness and ambiance. It was in the middle of everything and only a short walk from the station. His friend also hosts a small cafe on the first floor which adds to its charm - nice for a quick coffee break. Would love to come back.

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.

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.

The Mountain Cinema was the most unique place we've ever inhabited! It was fun and funky, and its location in Gotemba couldn't have been better!

The place was insane. The most unique AirBnB I have ever been.

Kosuke was extremely helpful from beginning till the end. The place was very unique. We were only able to stay for one night which was definitely not enough. I could... read more only imagine how much fun it would be to watch a few movies with a group of friends. I would 100% come back here for my next visit. Thank you so much Kosuke!

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.

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!

Incredible location, an old cinema lovingly renovated by Kosuke. Truly unique experience. Our kids were obsessed! So many thoughtful odes to cinema everywhere too, you really felt like you were... read more somewhere special and different. We also appreciated somewhere with a bit of space after so many tiny homes in Japan.

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!

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.

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!
