Hello Bren,
I couldn’t find your hotel exactly but the one in the attached image seems to be it. According to Google it’s only about 36mins using the local buses and on foot. I have used the buses in this area, and they are accessible, inexpensive, and may be easier than finding an accessible taxi in the area. They run often in different directions throughout the day, if possible I’d recommend having a smartphone with a mobile data plan (sim card rental) so you can use a map app to find nearby buses if you do decide to use them.
Here is a previous post that I shared some information recently about the Buses in Kawaguchi area that you may find useful when exploring the area.
I hope that helps,
