After about 20 minutes by car from Gotemba Interchange, you will arrive at a quiet place surrounded by nature, with Mt. Fuji right in front of you. It is the site of Fuji Speedway, the circuit where Japan's first F2022 race was held, and next to it stands a brand new and elegant hotel. Fuji Speedway Hotel is part of the Unbound Collection by Hyatt, which just opened in XNUMX.

``Unbound Collection by Hyatt'' is part of the Hyatt brand line, which does not mention the Hyatt name, but instead develops unique, original, and one-of-a-kind hotels that take full advantage of the characteristics of the land and location and can only be experienced there. It is one. ``Fuji Speedway Hotel'' has the concept of ``a fusion of motorsports and hospitality'' due to its special location, with Japan's highest mountain, Mt. Fuji, right in front of it, and adjacent to the Fuji Speedway.

There are many experiences that can only be had here.
Even if you're not a motorsports fan, you'll be captivated by its charm.

Throughout the hotel, there is art reminiscent of motorsports, and the sense of playfulness is thrilling.

As you pass through the hotel entrance, the first thing that catches your eye is the racing cars lined up at the "Fuji Motor Sports Museum" located on the first and second floors of the hotel. This museum, operated by Toyota Motor Corporation, exhibits a large number of racing cars that have colored the history of motorsports for about 1 years, with the cooperation of domestic and foreign automakers, as well as exhibiting information about the development of the Japanese motorsports industry. It is a special space where you can feel close to challenges. Motorsports fans will be thrilled by the racing cars they've always wanted to see, and even those who aren't familiar with cars will be overwhelmed by the structure of racing cars, the appearance and enthusiasm with which they've raced through numerous races.

If you go up to the third floor of the museum, which is directly connected to the hotel lobby, you will find the museum's shop and cafe, and if you go out to the terrace, you can see the Fuji Speedway directly below. Surrounded by this rare location and special atmosphere, everyone is sure to get an adrenaline rush.

Inspired by motorsports
A space full of contemporary art spreads out

Guest rooms have views of Mt. Fuji and the circuit, allowing you to enjoy completely different scenery. I hear that guests who want to experience both the tranquility of a view of Mt. Fuji and the movement of a circuit view will change their room every night, and both have spectacular views, so it's easy to understand why that's the case.
The interior has a sophisticated, simple, and modern interior, and there are many playful touches reminiscent of motorsports. In addition, the minibar is stocked with Shizuoka-specific teas, sweets, and smoked cheeses specially selected by the hotel, as well as limited-label whiskey from Gaia Flow Shizuoka Distillery ``M''.

Making the most of the characteristics of the land,
Gives you a new luxurious time

What I felt most strongly about staying at this hotel was that it was filled with the warmth of a small luxury hotel in the mountains of Europe. It's possible to be surrounded by overwhelming nature, but that's not all. In addition to the well-thought-out design, including the way the light is brought in and the terrace that gently connects the inside and outside, what made me feel most comfortable was the warm service provided by the hotel staff. Her exquisite sense of distance and gentle smile easily enters our hearts, and we can't help but want to talk to her. The same goes for the hotel's Italian restaurant ``TROFEO Italian'' and Robatayaki ``Robata OYAMA.'' Both restaurants have a relaxing atmosphere, and the food is exquisite, using plenty of local ingredients and carefully prepared, but the warm service from the staff makes it even more delicious.
The combination of luxurious space and homely hospitality creates this one-of-a-kind hotel. Although it has only been open for about half a year, the fact that there are already many repeat customers shows how comfortable this hotel is.

What nature gives us.
Encounter a moment that makes you reconsider the meaning of luxury

In a separate building connected to the hotel building by a walkway, there is Omika Wellness & Spa, which offers spa treatments, Fuji Omikami Onsen, and a pool and gym. Except for spa treatments, this space is reserved for guests only, so you're guaranteed a relaxing time. The gym is equipped with a professional-grade driving simulator, where you can select your favorite car model and experience driving around Fuji Speedway while feeling realistic sounds and vibrations.

In addition to the hotel building, there are also separate villas. It is a detached house that looks like a villa, and has its own garage, so you can have some private time. A special feature is that you can admire your beloved car in the private garage from the living room. This villa is also dog-friendly, allowing up to two large dogs.

In this area, close to the city center, there was a hotel where you could enjoy a new kind of adult time. How about heading out to find new fun and peace in Gotemba, where golf, shopping, and other activities can be enjoyed by people of all generations?
