The service we received was wonderful. Very attentive staff. The hotel wasn't too far of a walk from the station. The beds, however, were not the best. I expected traditional futons in a traditional Japanese room but instead they had a hard single mattress on the floor. The futon would have been more comfortable. It was nice to have a private onsen but the water was just luke warm in it, but overall I still enjoyed my stay.

Loved the big room. It was a perfect size for my two kids. We didn’t feel crammed together. Also, we had a nice view of the surrounding area. The staff was helpful and friendly.

The older gentleman that checked us in was very welcoming and helpful. The hotel is family friendly. The room was spacious and clean and well kept. We had spring beds which were a little too firm for us and we would rather have gad traditional futons, which is what we will ask for on our next visit.

Cheap, huge room, free onsen
The room was huge, wifi was fast and usable in room. Had no restaurant but the hotel had a little free onsen. Price was cheap. But the town is not so alive, nearest convienence store was like 10 mins away. And is far from station.

The hotel is located in a very good spot. There are sightseeing places within a walking distance, as well as convenient stores. The hotel itself was clean and the staff was friendly. The room was very big and pleasant to stay at, with a very beautiful view of the town and the mountains. There was a bath, shower and a toilet near the room entrance, separated from the sleeping area. The mattresses were very comfortable to sleep on. They also have an option to use a private outdoor hot spring, which is very nice if you stay with your significant other. Although the private outdoor hot spring was for additional price, it was still a nice option to have. If you don't want to use this option, they also have a free of extra charge common hot springs. I definitely recommend staying at this hotel.

This place is a little walk from the station but don't let that deter you. This hotel is a steal for the price. Their standard rooms are huge! I had so much room to myself. Very different from other hotels at the same price. They have a variety of options when it comes to onsen/baths. You can go to their onsite baths or take a shuttle (anytime within the shuttle hours) to their sister hotel where you can see the river from the hot baths. You tell the front desk at their sister hotel when you want to come back, they give them a call and you're quickly on your way back. The staff was very friendly and answered any questions I had. Although, some japanese will definitely be necessary.

Great little hidden gem
Perfect stay. We will definitely be back again, The only downside was that the restaurant wasn't open, but there is a Lawson just down the road and snack and drinks at reception. They had a local restaurant delivery service on offer -which we did try - but we didn't really enjoy it.

Perfect Stay - Would Reccommend
Amazing stay and can't wait to return. Absolutely loved the room, the beds were incredibly comfy and the view was amazing. We rented a private onsen and it was perfect. (We also got engaged at the hotel during our stay so it was extra special) Hope to be back soon!

Nice hotel and services including an excellent onsen. However, this location is not convenient to Nikko, Unbeknown to us it is not actually located in Nikko but in a 20 minute train ride with changes in Kingawa-onsen, a completely different city. Posting this hotel as being in Nikko and only a few minutes from the train station is false advertising. It should be more fully explained where it is and how to get there from Nikko.

Nice onsen
Onsen was great, hotel was OK. A little old and run down, but clean enough. The day time/evening staff were friendly, but the morning staff were not particularly polite or helpful. Strange breakfast arrangement - we had to go in a mini bus to another hotel.

Spacious clean value for money ryokan
Very spacious ryokan and indeed value for money and well maintained. Receptionists are very friendly. Need to converse in simple Japanese. Hotel provides free transport to their sister hotel nearby for onsen at a minimal cost. Will be perfect if they have their own onsen. Overall a very satisfied stay with them and we extended another night instead. Thumbs up!!! がんばってね! 😊

Wonderful spacious hotel but poor location
Wonderful spacious room with forest view. Unfortunately, it's located a long way from Nikko World Heritage Sites & train station. There is a hotel shuttle to the local train station only in the morning. We had to use a taxi returning or walk uphill for ages. Poor location.
