Fairy tale-themed cuisine that uses Shinshu ingredients to please both the eyes and the tongue
We serve a dish inspired by a different fairy tale for each season. We are particular about the taste of the food, and we also pay close attention to the appearance of the dishes and presentation, with a "fairy tale" motif. Our visually pleasing dishes, made with ingredients from Shinshu, allow you to feel the four seasons as well as the flavors.
Drinks during meals are all-inclusive. You can enjoy various drinks without paying extra. *There is also a paid drink menu.
One of the most recommended dishes is Otogitei's specialty, the "Unkai Tamatebako." When you open the Tamatebako, smoke spreads from inside... and colorful seafood and mountain produce appears from the smoke! Please enjoy this colorful dish that is a feast for the eyes as well.
Enjoy one of Japan's leading "beauty baths" to your heart's content
Otogitei Kofu's proud hot spring is characterized by its thick water that leaves your skin as smooth as a veil. This "beauty bath" makes you feel as if you are wrapped in silk, and provides the ultimate relaxation to all customers who visit.
Another big attraction of Otogitei Kofu is the beautiful starry sky you can see from the open-air bath. Soaking in the hot spring while gazing up at the night sky will relax both your body and mind.
We also have a full range of amenities, so you can have a comfortable stay from check-in to check-out.
