My friend and I stayed at Morinouta Hotel for one night, and it turned out to be such a lovely experience. The staff were genuinely friendly at one point, the host came over and asked if we wanted some homemade cheesecake (obviously yes, because… cheesecake). They also gave us tips on places to check out nearby, which was really helpful. The rooms were cosy and comfortable, with huge windows that are perfect for sitting by with a cup of tea or for taking slightly dramatic, Victorian-style photos if you’re in the mood.

Our stay at Itamuro Onsen was truly exceptional. Words can hardly capture how special this place is. Surrounded by exquisite nature, beautifully curated furniture and ceramics, a sophisticated art library, and gardens designed by renowned artist Kishio Suga, it was a memorable experience. The onsens were perfect for the relaxation you need after spending some days in a busy city like Tokyo. A special thanks to Koki, who kindly showed us around Suga's museum and shared insights about the special project that is Itamuro. We're already looking forward to returning soon!

The staff was super friendly and they offered to pick us up from the station when we arrived and they took us to the train station in the morning the next morning. They even provided recommendations to a local ramen shop nearby that had been amazing. The room was super clean and nice to stay in for the night after a day visit to shrines.

I stayed two nights in this amazing hotel and enjoyed every single bit of it Service: The staff was absolutely amazing, very attentive without being intrusive, absolutely charming, very knowledgeable of activities around Nikko, they engaged in conversation and we're super nice. I can't find the names of the staff, but I want to thank the Metre for that amazing whisky. The hotel: Absolutely beautiful, great design concept, the lounge is amazing the rooms too, spotless, spacious, lots of light, very well decorated. The bed and pillows were so nice and comfortable, the best in my month in Japan. Food: A delight to the senses all the dishes at dinner were exquisite, great combination of flavors, textures, aromas, and perfect presentation. Breakfast was great too. There's also free cocktails and drinks and champagne for breakfast if you're into that. As a bonus during dinner time there's a DJ and you can request music. Location: It's a bit far from Nikko Tobu station and downtown Nikko but they have a shuttle bus service so don't worry about it. A taxi from Tobu Nikko to the hotel will run you about ¥2000.

The property is in a remote location, but being surrounded by nature gives it a very calm and relaxing atmosphere. The rooms are like a traditional ryokan and the entire house is very charming and homey. The host is absolutely incredible. He was very hospitable and extremely kind. We know no Japanese, but he knew enough English to communicate well with us. We reserved with dinner and breakfast included, and both were delivious. It was just what we needed after a really long hike and the host graciously offered us a second helping, even though he served us so much food, especially for dinner! The onsen itself is amazing, so relaxing, able to fit two people, and has a great view of nature. The location is a long walk uphill from from the train station (some parts with no sidewalk) which we did on our way there, but it was absolutely worth it once we made it there and the host graciously offered us a ride back to Tobu Nikko station in the morning. Would definitely stay again!!

It was the first time we ventured out from a major metropolitan area in Japan and we are glad that we chose Iizukatei. The breakfast served in our room every morning was exceptional. The staff was super attentive and always went out of their way to help us with reservations, driving us around and arranging activities.

Minshuku Fukufuji

22 miles from Nikko Toshogu Shrine in Nikko, Minshuku Fukufuji offers accommodations with access to a hot spring bath.

The owner was the sweetest, hardest working inn-keeper we have met. She drove us from and to the little bus stop near the minshuku. The facility is old but clean and the rooms were warm and comfortable. The hotspring bath was lovely but the dinner and breakfast were the best. Part of the train ride from Nikko to Kinugawa Onsen turned out to be fun with an old steam train. The little bus from Kinugawa Onsen to the stop of the guesthouse was an adventure in itself. Please DO listen to the advice of getting there early. There are only a few buses in the early afternoon.

Kinugawa Park Hotels is a nice Japanese-style inn with large and comfortable rooms offering both European beds as well as Tatami mats. The Onsen public baths are a bit dated, but well laid out and a nice experience.

It was our first time staying in a ryokan, and it did gave us a really good impression. Property itself was nice, located in a small town beside the river. Room was facing the river so we can hear the soothing noise from the river. Dinner was excellent--food kept on coming, great quality, great variety. They even managed to cater our diet (without pork and alcohol). I love the outdoor onsen. It's very relaxing to soak in the hot water facing the river.

Rooms are very big and comfy, onsen is small but very nice to enjoy. Nikko is quiet and calm and so was this location. Breakfast included was the right choice because it‘s hard to find something to eat nearby especially in the morning. Ryokan is amazingly beautiful and futon was adequate.

Absolutely surpassed my expectation as I'd thought it was a hostel but it turned out to be a dorm room within a great hotel! Highly recommend to opt for the food included (especially dinner) as it's a sumptuous 6-course meal with limitless alcohol. Great way to try the cuisine of Japan. The common room also had beautiful views of the lake, free snacks and drinks (including alcohol), games and hammocks. The onsen was great! Everything was clean and to a high standard. They also gave slippers, free toiletries and yukatas.

We loved our Japanese-style room and the extremely comfortable beds. We slept with the windows open for cool air, listening to the river. The staff were friendly and helpful, a really wonderful owner. We loved being greeted by a kitty and watching them enjoy the property! We enjoyed the private onsen. Would absolutely recommend this place to anyone looking for a peaceful ryokan.

This stunning hotel has a private onsen for rent in addition to its public pools for its quests (indoor+ open air with view, jacuzzi,sauna). They are also tattoo friendly! The rooms are traditional Japanese tatami and they make the beds/take them away for you. They have a game room (billiards, pingpong table etc). The dinner shabushabu was excellent!

The location is great just a stroll away from the Nikko Toshogu Shrine. We enjoy the traditional Japanese decor of the hotel, and sleeping in futons. The room is clean. The outdoor onsen is great.
