What a delightful old world charm this hotel has. Great room and wonderful food. Definitely take the Japanese room with half board. The onsens were very nice. The location is superb right next door to the temple sites and forest.

Wonderful 2 night stay in a great location with super friendly and lovely helpful staff, in a beautiful location. Despite my late arrival the hotel kept dinner for me and couldn’t have done more to be helpful during my stay. Great location for sunrise, sunset and anytime walks for photo ops at the famous Shinkyo bridge, and close to loads of shrines and temples right in the national park

Not comfy
Be warned that the Japanese style room does not have a private bath. I couldn't use the hot springs since I have visible tattos and tattos are not allowed (seriously?!).

Great location for sightseeing but not much more
We enjoyed being able to walk to the main sights and to / from the train station. The room had a nice view and traditional Japanese furniture. The hotel might be from the 1970s/ 1980s and have not been renovated in a long time. We tried the private family Onsen and it was quite disappointing. Not very clean and just tap water in a tub.. A dangerous feature is the hot water that’s burning hot in the showers, so be careful if you travel with children. The dinner and breakfast had a couple of tasty dishes but overall left us longing for the food at other Ryokans we have stayed at.

A Priceless Experience
It was the first time I stayed in a ryokan, so it was great. I got to sleep in a futon, take a bath in an onsen and have Japanese meals. The experience is priceless!

Nikko - make it a day trip next time
Food (breakfast and dinner - Japanese style) was excellent. Unfortunately, having been to several onsens over the years, I was really disappointed with the bath. Places in Hakone are much nicer and there is more to see in the area. I was in Beppu on this trip as well, and very nice places there as well. Also, for some reason, we (with companion) both agreed the futon / tatami mats just could not find a comfortable position; again, the ryokan / onsen we stayed at in Beppu (and previously in Hakone and Nagoya) had comfortable beds and extra pillows. This is not a - bad - place, just that if I am in Nikko again, I will look for somewhere else to stay. Maybe even just do a day trip to the area.
