Dormy Inn Kofu Natural Hot Spring
Fabulous indoor/outdoor onsen baths open long hours (with snacks after!). Reception decor was tired and staff tired too. Otherwise friendly vibe, short walk to station. Good value and I would return.

The property is relatively huge and everything is well-equipped. You will feel safe using the items they provide. The bath on basement is extremely huge and iconic for relaxation. Negatives are that you won’t have much space to open up your luggage.
