Very nice stay! The room was clean. Everyone we met who worked there was sooo sweet and helpful. Walked us around the hotel with a tour, and gave us a map with lots of recommendations to do around the area. Also has a private spa/onsen onsite, which was very nice

一泊での家族旅行で滞在しました。 チェックイン時には夕食と朝食の案内があり、とても丁寧にご対応いただきました。 到着は16時30分頃だったと思いますが、宿までにいくつか食事処の店舗を見かけていましたが準備中で営業しているかどうかわかりませんでした。 17時以降から開店して、ラストオーダーが20時くらいのお店もあることや周辺のお店の場所を地図でお示しいただき、価格の相場とメニューなども教えていただきました。 コンビニエンスストアがあることも教えていただき、雑貨を含めて揃えることができました。 朝食はフルーツの多いさっぱりした内容で個人的には魅力的でしたが、家族の好みなどもあり今回は遠慮させていただきました。 他の国外からの宿泊者が食事をとられていたのをお見かけしましたが、とても美味しそうでした。 ロビーにはウォーターサーバー、コーヒー、お茶、お湯が備えてあり、カップ麺やカロリーメイトも購入できるようになっていました。 宿には温泉があり、使用時にはドアの札を使用中にして鍵をかけて利用するスタイルでした。 部屋の中は畳の部屋とフローリングの部屋があり、4人で利用しましたが、ベッド2つ、ふとん2つで分厚めの布団と毛布があり、重みがあるので包まれた感がしっかりあって気温が低かったのですがぐっすり眠れました。暖房もしっかり利かせていただいたのでよかったです。 宿の近くにはお地蔵さんが並んだ観光名所があることをご案内いただき、宿泊日は日の入りが近づいていたため朝に行くことにしました。 滞在中はとても気持ちよく過ごすことができました。 スタッフの皆様には感謝しています。

Charming place closest to the many buddhas, and it’s walking distance to the Toshogu complex. It’s clean and comfortable. There are 3 restaurants, several cafes, and a Lawsons nearby. The onsen was nice. We took a bus from the Tobu Nikko station to go to the hotel. After you leave the bus, it’s a ~10 minute walk. The tourist info center at the station can tell you which bus to take (2A, 2B, or 2C) and where to get off (stop 8 - Yasukawacho). The only problem was that it ran out of water some point in the morning (soon after 8 am), which was annoying for those who opted to exercise and couldn’t take a shower. We later saw the water truck come around noon. But we still enjoyed our stay there!

Very comfortable stay on the futon - it was lovely to hear the waterfalls from our room. Location was lovely - bit of a walk from the main town of Nikko, but it was fine for us! The staff were charming and so helpful.

The best partnof this hotel is the onsen, very easy to use the private facility. The hotel is located quite a distance from the train station so it could be difficult to access depending on weather. However it was close to Toshogu shrine and the Kanmangafuchi Abyss was right next door. Highly recommend if you like relaxing in onsen waters.

I was in Japan for 2 weeks and this was possibly my favorite place I stayed at. The owners are so nice and welcoming. They speak great English, so that made my life easier! The nicest lady showed me around everything and took time to explain every appliance and amenity with demonstrations. They also held my bags for me after check-out so I could explore. The private onsen was fantastic - the afternoon light, and river view, is beautiful. My room (western) was very comfortable. Great walking distance to so many historic sites. I didn’t need a bus or taxi staying here and I am not a very active person. There is a 24 hour Lawsons nearby. Just remember: you are in the mountains, in a very humid environment. There may be the occasional bug or unexpected plant life, but everything was clean and well-cared for. Bed was very comfy and fresh. This isn’t a luxury resort; it’s like staying in a very nice family cottage. That, and the hosts, are why it’s special. I would come back to Niko just to stay here, even if I didn’t visit any tourist sites. Definitely try this place!

The owner is lovely and very helpful - although we are fans of Japanese food, we enjoyed the (Western) breakfast (which had to be ordered every day in advance) and the owner was helpful in giving advice and tips for Nikko's many attractions and for places to eat nearby. Some of the latter were a bit "hit and miss" - the Chinese restaurant wasn't very good and, despite being cheap, the food was stodgy and not very tasty. The Indian was better and (obviously) the local food options were the most recommendable. Use of the onsite onsen was well-regulated (with a sign saying "occupied" or "vacant" on the door) and, at the time of year we were there, we only had one other person/couple as "competition" for it! We especially enjoyed the warm/hot water after we were surprised by quite a heavy fall of snow in Nikko! All in all, a very interesting and enjoyable stay in Nikko - special thanks to the owner of this ryokan!

Lovely little spot

A lovely little spot, next to the river. You can hear the river lightly in the background from my room, which made it lovely to fall asleep to. A very friendly, warm welcome. Clean, comfortable - the only thing to note is if you’re arriving in the evening like I was, and walking from bus stop, it can be a dark walk, especially if you’re alone. But waking up there is beautiful surrounded by forests. The onsen is lovely too, looking out over the river, and private!

Small, very good affordable option along the river within walking distance of the main shrine sites and immediately adjacent to the trail to the Kanmangafuchi Abyss. Seems to be routinely booked by hiking tour groups, at least the two night we spent there. The hotel showed no availability on their website, but I was able to book a room on Expedia.

Beautiful setting, walkable to bus stops to get to where you want in Nikko. There are at least 3 or 4 restaurants you can walk to. Otherwise you’ll have to catch the bus to town for more options. Rooms are very small but very clean. Not too many electrical plugs for charging devices and they are all located near the ground. Personable staff and can provide the services you need. Convenient coin operated laundry facility. Very nice onsen in which you can reserve your own private time
