Yumura Onsen, the “shingen no motoyu” located in Kofu City, Yamanashi is one of Japan’s leading hot springs towns for over 1,200 years.
Yumura Tokiwa Hotel was founded in this very Yumura onsen town in 1929. It features all the conveniences of a modern hotel, blended with the authentic heart and soul of a Japanese inn. There’s also a sprawling 10,000 m2 Japanese garden with gorgeous blooms to enjoy all year around, who’s beauty has drawn wide acclaim in American magazine, the Garden Rankings of Japan.
Take a time away in the men’s wide open air bath inside the Japanese gardens, or melt away your body’s fatigue in the women’s fragrant cypress bath before sitting down for a veritable feast at the hotel. There you’ll find the Yamanashi brand “Koshu-gyu” beef, the high-end “fujinosuke” brand fish, and a number of dishes made special by the house chef and his love of seasonal flavors.
Across the 50 guest rooms you’ll find Western, Japanese, and Japanese-styled Western rooms to fit your perfect escape. Prepare for a time away in a classic, Japanese space while gazing out over a Japanese garden in perfect bloom across all 4 seasons.
