Top Nikko Hotel Reviews

Koduchi no Yado Tsurukamedaikichi

Koduchi no Yado Tsurukamedaikichi

8/10 Good
"Nice hotel and friendly staff. Hotel is a bit dated and the dining/restaurant availability was a bit confusing (they gave us coffee tickets but it never seemed to be an option as it wasn’t staffed or offered in the lobby, and when we went to the restaurant they ushered us out the back door of the hotel which made us chuckle and go find somewhere else to eat). We stayed 2 nights in the room with the private onsen which offered great views. Would recommend this hotel, it just could use some updating and a clearer dining schedule."
