Toyoko Inn Kofu Station South Exit 2 — Hotel in Kofu

Most, if not all, Toyoko Inn business hotels are conveniently located next to or within few minutes walk from major train stations. This hotel is within stone's throw from the Kofu train station. The lobby/dining area for Toyoko Inns are similar (a good thing, as familiarity is comforting to travelers) and the rooms are laid out the same way. Restaurants are abundant around the hotel with great local foods and friendly service. Seems most Toyoko Inns are managed by women! Great! Service is great, and joining their membership club offers discounted stays and a nice ID card is provided within a minute with your photo taken at check in! Plus, their ECO plan also offers a 300 Yen discount if they don't make up you room daily, but simply hang a bag of towels on your door each day and you make your own bed. ||Free breakfast buffet is delicious with friendly kitchen ladies! Most Japanese travelers eat early between 07:00 - 08:00 so go around 08:00 and the line is gone! Food available till 09:30 a.m. Free sundry items and yukata so no pajamas needed. Free wifi, of course and usually two or three computers available in the lobby for emails, Internet. ||We schedule our travels around JAPAN and take advantage of Toyoko Inns' easy to find location.

We revisited Yamanashi Prefecture to visit Sadoya Winery and the Takeda Shingen Shrine in the spring and stayed again at this hotel. It is located only five minutes walk from Kofu Station and surrounded by very good restaurants and shops. The area in front of the station has been nicely renovated and is clean, open and safe. Because of its location, this hotel remains a popular stay for business visitors and the room rates are a bargain. Clean, friendly, free wifi, free breakfast, and convenient. Easy access to the Takeda Shingen Castle ruins. Join the Toyoko Inn membership club for discounts. We used the ECO plan for 300 Yen discount, which simply means they will leave a bag of clean towels on your door daily without entering to make up your room. This allows you to relax a bit more in the mid-mornings after breakfast before going out...

Stayed one night during the last leg of our tour of Japan. It was the third Toyoko Inn that was our 'home' in Japan after TYI Haneda and TYI Ikebukuro.

The room came with a simple buffet breakfast. Very convenient location, just a five-minute walk to the railway station where nearby there are restaurants, shops and convenience stores. Highly...
