Decent Experience

Over the food was nice, with great variety. The washroom has a sew smell. I booked the stay for a birthday and was disappointed they were do not have any special accommodation available even though I was willing to pay extra for. The onsen was only so-so.

This is our second stay at this hotel. It has fantastic onsens, great Japanese buffet, and the rooms are large and comfortable. Kinu-Tateiwa Otsuribashi, a famous suspension bridge, is right behind the hotel that leads to great sceneries. Hotel is approximately 12 min walk to Kinugawaonsen Station, and offers shuttle bus in the morning to the station by request. Next time we visit Nikko, we definitely go to this hotel again!

Book the Presidential Suite

Loved our stay in the presidential suite! The private onsen on the rooftop balcony was incredible. Room was very spacious and comfortable. Price was great for this room! English was a bit tough but front desk was very helpful. Ate the included traditional Japanese dinner and breakfast for only 1 out of our 2 nights there. You’ll need to be adventurous for those meals! There’s also a great ramen and burger walking spot nearby for a less adventurous meal. The public onsen was gorgeous and not crowded mid-afternoon. We both have a couple tattoos and were okay to enter, and could also use a towel to cover if needed. Booked a couples massage and facial, massage was lymphatic drainage and helped reduce swelling for all those Japanese beers and eats when down in Tokyo. Suspension bridge near the hotel was fun to explore and easy access to a waterfall view. Foot bath at the attached restaurant with a beer was great! Our room shower didn’t work during peak onsen hours and was very outdated. Overall would come here if you’re looking for a remote experience in Japan off the beaten path. Get the presidential suite, you won’t regret it!

Lovely place to stay

Very friendly and helpful staff who spoke English well! Lots of amenities and loved the private onsens. The building was a little outdated and the air conditioner didnt work well so we couldnt get rid of the slight smell the room had. Overall with their breakfasts and views too, I'd come back.

Fantastic Room Deal

I booked a room that has private open air onsen at balcony on the top floor with exquisite view of beautiful Kinugawa River and mountain. This deal offered Kaiseki meals, and surprisingly, I was able to eat everything though one of two nights dinner was massive! Staffs are wonderful, and I was very lucky to see fireworks from right outside of this facility during the weekend event. I've been here 3 times..... I will come back again for sure.

This hotel was a bit hard to get to with 3 luggages to cart around (transferring from JR line to Tobu-Nikko line). However, the hotel staff helped us organised to transfer our luggages to our next hotel in Osaka (additional fees but so worth it for us and we were able to enjoy the Nikko area more freely). We booked our accommodation with kaiseki dinner and breakfast and it was simply devine! Japanese food was served in our own private table away from the crowd and it was another level. Our dinner and breakfast attendant was Freska and she explained our dishes in English. She also spoke Indonesian and Japanese and was so friendly. Our room had a private onsen, two twin beds and the hotel staff set up a futton bedding in the Japanese style living room while we were eating dinner. The room we had was spacious and offered us a peaceful mountain view. The hotel facilities was on the older side but we came for the hot spring experience and we could see this hotel was also popular Japanese families visiting from other parts of Japan.

Nice place and really nice breakfast and dinner. Rooms were traditional Japanese which was really cool to experience. Room had a slight funky smell to it but had a super nice view of the river/mountains. Overall I would stay there again.. No coffee in the room and you had to purchase bottle coffe drinks downstairs and heat them up in a perculator that is all in all japanese and takes a while to figure it out. Really nice staff!
