Convenient to the attractions, nice staffs. A bit old but considering the price, still a good choice for budgeted onsen stay with two meals.

A wonderful first experience in a Japanese hotel.

It was my first time in a ryokan and it didn't deceive me. All was perfect from the typical Japanese room with tatami, futon,... to the onsen. The dinner and the breakfast were each time different with lot of really good Japanese products. I feel more Japanese after this night than before !

The property is located within walking distance to all the heritage attractions of Nikko. Big plus if you are spending the time to visit those attractions and downtown Nikko. The dinner and breakfast were included in the "half board" package. Wonderful food and beautifully presented, very typical of the Japanese ryokan style. We had the Japanese style tatami room which is very spacious. It has ensuite toilet and wash basin but not the shower/bath. That you have to go to the onsen common bathroom to do. Not a problem for us. The property is a bit dated. The colour and decors were dull, and the onsen itself has tiles that were dislodging from the wall due to the high humidity and poor ventilation. Therefore, the inn doesn't give that ryokan charm and doesn't promote that relaxing zen feel. A refreshed look would bring this inn to the level which would be more in line with the wonderful service from the staff and the amazing food.

The onsen was great. Tattooed guests have two hours late at night they can use it which is lovely. The staff were super helpful and very kind.

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.

Worse than expected

The twin room was not as described, we were expecting at least a basic bathroom in the room that you can take a shower, while it's only a toilet - scam. And the room is really freezing in winter there's no heater, pyjamas provided was thin material. The worst hotel during my Japan stay.

グループ旅行にとても良いと思います。 10人以上の女性グループでお邪魔させていただきました。 建物の古さはありますが、清潔感があり、昭和世代にはそれがレトロな懐かしさで、修学旅行のような気分で楽しくわいわい過ごさせていただきました。(逆にうるさくしてしまい、他のお客様に迷惑をかけた？と懸念しております･･･） お風呂も風情があり、ゆっくりできました。 お料理はとてもおいしく、ボリュームもあり、みんな大満足でした。 東照宮にも近く、荷物も預かっていただけたので、歩いて散策ができました。

東照宮をメインで選びました。施設の古さはありますが、清潔感がありスタッフの方も対応はしっかりされていました。チェックアウト後も朝から昼過ぎまで散策している間、車を置かせていただき助かりました。東照宮メインで参拝される予定であれば、古き良き日本の宿としておすすめです。旅館というよりは民宿といった感じではありますが、静かに過ごせました。

東照宮にも歩いてすぐに行くことが出来て、立地は凄く良いです。車も宿の敷地内に置くことが出来たので良かったです。和洋室のお部屋はおそらくリニューアルしたのち小綺麗にされてますが、虫は多かったです。入り口やローカは修学旅行のお宿のような感じもありましたが、お部屋に入ると綺麗で驚きました。お食事も美味しくスタッフの方々は親切でよかったです。

日光東照宮に近いので選択。 受付ロビーはお寺と同じお香を焚いてるのか、お寺のような香りがします。 ◯良かった点 ・輪王寺や日光東照宮にとにかく近い。また、明治の館という人気の洋食レストランのすぐ隣りと立地最高！！ ・旅館の食事が味、ボリュームともに最高！！ ・宿泊者は荷物を預かって下さるので、重い荷物があっても楽に観光を楽しめます。 ・今回、多人数で利用しましたが、一人旅でも問題なく利用できます！（実際、何名か一人旅利用の方がいらっしゃいました） ⚪️改善希望点 ・部屋のドアなどは少し古さを感じます ・部屋のテレビは今の標準だと小さいと感じる人は多いかもしれません 少し意見を述べましたが、今回の旅行、こちらの旅館で本当に良かったと思いました。おすすめです！！
