Hotel Sekitei  

In the suburbs of Fuefuki, this ryokan sits minutes from Monde and Mars Yamanashi wineries. It’s close to Eho-ji, Onmyo-ji and Daizokyo-ji temples, with sweeping views over Kofu Valley and the South Alps.

Traditional Japanese garden views meet modern comforts. Rooms are air-conditioned with flat-screen TVs, safes, bidet-equipped bathrooms, complimentary toiletries and slippers, plus blackout curtains for a proper night’s rest. The top-floor open-air hot spring bath looks out over the valley.

Soak in hot springs and a large open-air onsen, unwind in the sauna or hot tub, and book a massage or try karaoke after dinner. Buffet breakfasts are served daily (7–9 AM) for a fee. Free self parking is available on site.

Complimentary wireless internet throughout the property, luggage storage and a safe-deposit box at the front desk. Train station pick-up service is provided at no charge and there’s an elevator for easy access.

Enjoy chef-led Japanese cuisine in the on-site restaurant, with room service during limited hours. Pair meals with wines from the nearby wineries for a regional touch.
