Great location to major attractions. Half board food is excellent especially breakfast. The hot spring is very comfortable. It’s an old Japanese hotel with great value.
Great location right next to the shrines. Dinner and breakfast were traditional Japanese with a lot of small dishes. The staff is very helpful. We also booked a private onsen it was very nice. Overall a fantastic traditional Japanese experience
Excellent. Right in the heart of the world Heritage Area, Walking distance to all the major attractions, shrines and temples. Bus stop right in front of the hotel.

Liked: Staff & service
Very old facility, has some smell in the room. You have to walk quite a bit to get to hotel. The dinner and breakfast are good.
Staffs' exceptional services, beautiful and delicious dinner and breakfast, good size room, nice amenities in the public bath. Very close to Nikko Toshogu. It is excellent if the internet connection can be more stable.

Disliked: Staff & service
It was in a nice location. No food or drink available- even coffee in the morning- if you did not purchase meals in advance. Most of staff unpleasant, excluding the last woman who helped us get a taxi when we left. Have stayed at other traditional Japanese hotels. The during here miserably thin.
Hotel is very close to all the world heritage sites right across from the parking lots. Walking distance to sites and train station
The half board option is very nice. Dinner served in the room
There is onsen on premise
The hotel is somewhat older but that maybe part of its charm. We chose to stay in Japanese style room with tatami floor. The futon was much more comfortable than I thought.
This hotel was in an amazing location - less than 5 mins walk to toshugu and rinnoji temple - as an added bonus they have free pick up from Tobu-Nikko station and there is a free shuttle at designated times back to the station. Great service from all the staff. We got the Japanese style room - although it was a bit basic/ dated, it had all the amenities required for a short stay. Futons were also very comfy. The dinner (served in room) and breakfast were amazing! The outdoor onsen was also a treat!
Amazing! Staff couldn’t have been more attentive, welcoming or helpful. Courtesy shuttle to train station. Meals were exquisite. Facilities very clean with many unexpected amenities. Would highly recommend.
Charming and friendly experience at an older, but well maintained, ryokan. Excellent service and delicious food. There was some noise of a school group. The location is ideal.
