Fuefukigawa Onsen Zabou

My post today is about one of Yamanashi's luxury ryokan or Japanese style hotel, Zabou. Zabou, as it is named is a place to forget about the hustle and bustle from daily life. The beautiful surroundings and excellent services, makes it the best place to calm your heart and mind. Zabou is a ryokan built by Marquis Winery company. Yamanashi is known for it's wine, and Marquis winery is one of the wineries that produces Japan's wine, Koshu. 

private open-air bath

The concept of the rooms at Zabou is to make the room so comfortable that they will not leaves the room and just relax and enjoy their time to the fullest inside the room. Zabou has some types of room with its own taste. Most of the rooms here are equipped with open-air spa or rotenburo in each room. The dinning room and the bed room are separated. For the villas, the Japanese-style and the Japanese and Western style rooms in the main building, each room has its own dining room separately. 

140 Years-old building

As for the villa annex, the dinning room is in the different building. Different from the main building, the dining room is not private. The building itself is a 140 years-old building. Beside the building, there is a small pond for raising soft-shelled turtle. Some of the cuisine here use soft-shelled turtle as the main ingredient. The turtle which is raised in the pond will later be cut and served as a luxury dishes. 

Fish bait

Library

 There is a library in the main building where you can relax and read books is silence and enjoy the beautiful view. The books are always changed every month so that guests will not get bored here. And here guests can enjoy free wine and drinks while relaxing. The main building rooms also has fish bait for the gold fish in garden. There also public open-air bath that can be enjoyed by every guests here.

Staying here sure cost a lot of fortune, but the experience you'll got is amazing. The foods here are amazing and cooked with finest. They also sells Marquis wines and Yamanashi local confections for souvenirs.
