4 Star Hotels in Okunikko, Japan

"This place offers a great experience of how the traditional Japanese onsen used to be like. It is sad to see the decline of Kinugawa onsen area but it is still a very memorable onsen resort and Nikko nearby is a bonus. "

"Property was beautifully equipped in the kitchen and for entertainment. The private "onsen" of the bathroom was phenomenal. It had a sauna, a cold plunge and mineral spring bath all together. Was not really convenient to town but only a kilometer out. Check was terrible as they do it all remotely and the system was down. I tried several times to check-in on their tablet. I then video called via their tablet and he couldn't do it after 15 minutes. They then emailed me 3 more times about it, a bit annoying. Check out is early and exact we were walking to the door at 10am as she was knocking on the door."

"Lovely stay in this interesting and beautiful historic hotel."

"Love the private Onsen and sauna and the house is new and very clean love the layout! The couch could be more comfortable but very modern"

"Amazing, amazing experience! My family had such a wonderful time and we are planning to go back to visit. "

"The room was absolutely beautiful, the private bath was so lovely in the cold night air. The staff were all so friendly and attentive, it really felt like they had thought of everything! We would definitely stay here again The only downside is that when arriving, the driveway/road up to the hotel is completely gravel so it was very hard to get our suitcase to the hotel. We ended up getting a taxi back to the train station at the end of our stay and that was much easier. Strongly recommend not walking to the hotel from the train station if you have a big suitcase like we did"
