The hotel is exactly what I imagined a perfect stay would be like in Japan. It has EVERYTHING I expected. The traditional style, the view, the food, the vibe.. The staff are very welcoming and responsive and helpful. I bought the half board. The breakfast and dinner are wonderful. The location is also great, very close to the sites and nice cafes and restaurants. Strongly recommended! Would definitely stay longer for a week next time in Nikko.

Nikko was a great respite from the big cities, and Senhime was the perfect spot to refresh -- a beautiful and spacious room that faced the mountain and river, wonderful staff, excellent food, lovely indoor and outdoor bath. You come away feeling pampered. Its location is also excellent -- situated in a historic residential area that's an easy walk to the Nikko historic district, the imperial summer villa, the Kanmangafuchi Trail, and a botanic garden. The only issue we had was communicating with the staff about pick-up from the train station. The hotel may want to make sure their messaging system is compatible with folks who come from overseas. We ended up taking a taxi over.

This Ryokan Style Hotel was an amazing surprise to our journey through Japan! The hotel is very well maintained with super amazing mountain and river views, and their Onsen are top notch with super high quality amenities! The food is really amazing and plentiful, I recommend booking with the Half board option to get both the breakfast and the dinner (kaiseki style). They are served on a private room on either the second or first floor. I do recommend contacting them in advance (or even prior to booking) in case you have a food allergy; they will make their best effort to accommodate if the allergy is 'simple' but won't be able to accommodate if its something more complex like 'gluten allergy', they do specify that in their web page though so do your research prior instead of trying to bash them out with bad reviews. I have a shellfish allergy and they provided other options for me to still have the experience so I am very gretful for that. The service is quite amazing and welcoming, they have english speaking staff which greatly helps to us foreign visitors. They offer a free shuttle from and to the JR and Bus stations, they have their schedule on their official web page but you could contact them in advance to review prior to your travel. Really recommend this hotel and would like to come back on another season to try different food and views!

Traditional hotel. May appeal to others but wasn’t a good fit for my husband and I. Couldn’t use onsen because of tattoos. Wish this had been made clearer on adverts. Dated room with hard bed. Could feel springs through mattress. Invited to lounge for happy hour drinks but no one there to staff bar. Only vending machine noodles available for food and limited places open for dinner near by. Shuttle bus wouldn’t wait 2 minutes to accommodate us so ended up walking to train station 35 min walk away with all our luggage. Generally disappointing and wouldn’t return or recommend.
