Ryokan Kikori: Seasonal Cuisine to Die For
Located in Fuefuki City, Yamanashi, Ryokan Kikori (旅館きこり) is a traditional Japanese inn dominated by its lovely bamboo thicket and the stunning suits of samurai armor to be found here and there on the premises.

Ryokan Kikori
This is a higher-end venue with vast guest rooms—designed for groups—and a large interior meeting space, featuring both an indoor and outdoor bath (rotenburo), as well as lovely wooden baths ensuite. Guest rooms overlooking the bamboo grove certainly have the best views!
Even more than the accommodation, the cuisine is to die for, with seasonal ingredients plated on equally seasonal dishes, presented with lively aplomb.
Fuefuki City is located just east of Kofu City, on the north side of Mount Fuji, making it a great place to start any Fuji adventures.
