We stayed for one night while we toured wineries in Kofu and Katsunuma. Plenty of parking and conveniently located in Kofu. The public onsen was great along with the beautiful garden that we enjoyed looking upon while sipping a complimentary beer. Staff was gracious and included a native English speaker who gave us an orientation to the room and the grounds. Thanks for a wonderful stay!

Relaxing Hotel

This hotel was a wonderful surprise. It is packed with tradition and history. With a lovely location, beautiful gardens but our room (608) had a view of Fuji. Our room was massive, not just by Japanese standards but compared to anywhere in the world. We had been travelling for a month and the food was the best we had eaten. We also signed up for the free tour of the lite waterfall. We went up the cable car (rope way) at sunset and then a short walk to the waterfall. All this and it was free. Totally amazing stay. Hope to go back one day.

Beautiful and traditional

Nice Traditional Relax Hotel with amazing view,amazing food and really Nice Hot Spring! If you need to relax you have to go there.Very good staff also,ready to help whatever you will ask.I went with wife and my daughter and they gave us free cod while we are eating.

Relax!

This hotel well exceeded expectations with superb service before arrival and through lout our stay. The rooms were large,  and although slightly dated, looked out over a superb Japanese garden that has won numerous awards. The Japanese onsen was an excellent experience with the outdoor section in particular a highlight. The food at dinner was exquisite, even accommodating a slight delay in arrival from some of our group, with a nice wine selection from local and international wineries as expected from a location well known as the premier wine making region of Japan. Breakfast was also very nice. This hotel has been used by the Japanese royal family and it is easy to see why. True Japanese 'hospitality' or 'omotenashi'. Will be sure to stay again. 

Excellent hotel

The hotel is Ryokan but western in that there is no need to use the public bath; the rooms, at least our room, had it's own shower. You do sleep on mats on the floor. The lobby opens onto a beautiful garden. The breakfast was Japanese but with lots of options. All in all, it was an interesting mix of Japanese and western and a great place to stay,

All in all an interesting experience

We spent our weekend to enjoy lasting summer. The Garden in Tokiwa Hotel is just fablous. The hotel provides the guest to have beer and good foods in their beautiful garden. The atomosphere was just like somewhere in European beautiful gardens. We also  visited there in Autumn season, it is very difficult to judege which season is best. I believe everybody can enjoy this wonderful hotel in every season. We definetely come back soon. Because the food, hospitality and hot spring quality were so nice.

Fantastic Japanese inn ( Ryokan) with lovely Hot Spring

My husband and I spent one night here for my son's wedding.  The wedding reception was held in the hotel. Food was excellent as was the service throughout our stay.  Thankfully a lady at the front desk spoke English as we were the only non-speaking Japanese at the wedding!   

During our time in Japan, we spent a total of 6 nights at 3 other hotels, both in Tokyo and Kofu (see separate reviews).  Tokiwa was the most expensive hotel of all of them and the one that the bedroom needed the most updating. 

We opted for a traditional style room (vs western style which are offered as well).  This was our first time sleeping on tatami mats on the floor and (thankfully) they were not all uncomfortable.  Our room was very large but I must say a little "worn" and definitely dated.  It was huge though with sliding panel doors everywhere.  When we arrived there was a table in the middle of the room.  When we returned at night the table had been moved and the "beds" put down.  In the morning the beds were removed while we were at breakfast and the table was back in place.  A tea service was provided in the room.  There is also a small fridge and a large screen television with Japanese-only stations.

A large breakfast buffet was included in the price of our room, consisting primarily of Japanese food items.  What the other guests of the wedding were particularly excited about were the (separate) his and her hot baths which they all enjoyed the morning following the wedding.  Knowing we'd be naked bathing with complete strangers, we just couldn't do it.

The grounds throughout the property are lovely and there is a nice gift shop in the hotel.  I understand the emperor has stayed at this hotel before, making it somewhat prestigious.

For western tourists visiting the Kofu area, I would recommend PrivateStay Hotel.  For Japanese residents, I know my son's in-laws just loved the baths.  For someone considering having a wedding here, it is an ideal location and the service provided by staff is excellent.
