Nikko Kanaya Hotel

Nikko Kanaya Hotel

📍 1300 Kamihatsuishimachi, Nikko
★★★★★ 9.0 (93 reviews)

"The location is very good for sightseeing and quiet. We expected more proactive service in a 4-star-hotel. (We had to make up our beds on our own, even after confirmation that the room should be cleaned up. Surprising in a 4-star-hotel.) The facilities are historic, yes, but also not well cared. It is a shame that the wooden furniture or the wooden elements like window sills are not renovated."

📍 1541-1383 Tokorono, Nikko
★★★ 8.5 (40 reviews)

"Really really great place. Don't be fooled by the lack of photos. The place is nice and homely. They have private onsen as well. And the HOST is WONDERFUL. He is so nice and so friendly. He made us feel so welcome even though we were only staying a day. Loved this stay"

Nikko Station Hotel Classic

Nikko Station Hotel Classic

📍 3-1 Aioicho, Nikko
★★★ 9.0 (167 reviews)

"Convenient place. It’s just a 5min walk from the Tobu Nikko station (the station you would arrive in if you rode over from Asakusa). It’s a premium stay that has a public bath. In the rooms you have even lotions and face washes and overall the hotel feels very new. The breakfast that comes with the stay is decent. Had vege curry with rice, hard boiled eggs, salad, bread with jam, fresh milk.  It’s very near the bus station that takes you to most sightseeing areas in Nikko. You should find out about their busses at the tourist information center because the busses are not registered in Google maps!"

"Looks like a brand new hotel! You can use the kitchen on the ground floor - coffee machine, oven, micro wave, ice, and a table to eat. Just didn’t like the bathing area with see through glass door."

📍 Matsubarachō, 17-4, Nikko
★★★ 9.3 (235 reviews)

"I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Nikko Station Hotel. Its location was excellent, just a short 5-minute walk from Nikko Station, making it very convenient for exploring the area. The room was comfortable, and I appreciated the thoughtful recommendations provided in the lobby, which were helpful for planning my visit. The staff were friendly, accommodating, and always willing to assist. One pleasant surprise was the complimentary breakfast, which I had not expected and was a great way to start the day. Overall, a comfortable and convenient stay that exceeded my expectations. I would happily stay here again on a future visit to Nikko."

"We had a fantastic stay at this hotel in Nikko. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, making our experience truly enjoyable. The meals, both dinner and breakfast, were delicious. The hotel's amenities, including a public bath, mini market, vending machines, and a cafe, covered all our needs. Additionally, evening events added a nice touch to our stay. Its convenient location, easily accessible from the train station via bus, made exploring Nikko effortless. The complimentary shuttle back to the train station upon check-out was a thoughtful gesture, rounding off a great experience."

"A nice place to relax and enjoy your vacation. Good hot spring and comfortable environment."

Shelter Garden Nikko Hotels in Nikko

Shelter Garden Nikko

"Most tourists who go to Nikko either come back and forth on the same day or stay in a hot spring hotel. If you have had enough of hot springs, then try this one. It is definitely a rare designer hotel in Japan, very special! Unlike the Ritz by Lake Chuzenji, where there are many tourists outside the window, here you live in a natural park, and there are only continuous mountains, green trees, waterfalls and streams outside the window. It is so beautiful and quiet. The dinner is Michelin-level French food, exquisite and delicious, and the wine selection is also good. It is strongly recommended to include a meal. It is very close to the train station, and it takes less than ten minutes to get there by taxi for 1,600 yen. The hotel has three free shuttle buses to the station in the morning. The employees have multiple roles. The designer is also the owner, the restaurant DJ, the waiter, and the driver. If there is anything, everyone shares it together. Whoever is free will do it. This kind of team feeling is very good. There is also a resident painter. You eat here and he paints there. He creates a work every night. It's wonderful."

Itoen Hotel New Sakura Hotels in Nikko

Itoen Hotel New Sakura

"Big room and nice service for dinner and breakfast. The location near from edo wondeland, around 15 minutes"

Kinugawa Park Hotels Hotels in Nikko

Kinugawa Park Hotels

"The hotel is around 10mins walk from Kinugawa-Onsen Station. Although there are many abandoned hotels, shops, residences, buildings around the surrounding area, I can still explore the area as the street lights are lit in the evening. The hotel is divided into different wings and occupies a large area. I stayed in the upper floors of the hotel’s main building (Kirakukan) but there’s an option to stay at the hotel’s park-cottages that is built on the cliff of the riverbank and overlooks the Kinugawa river. The Kinugawa Park Cottage is located separately further away from the main building. I only noticed a local Japanese family of four or five persons being escorted by the hotel staff to one of the cottages. Other than that one-off encounter, I didn’t see anyone else at the area around the cottage which is also super quiet. Likewise for the other wings of the hotel i.e. Kinoyakata and Kishintei, I didn’t see any guests maybe due to low season. Love the onsen and the private open-air bath, the traditional Japanese kaiseiki breakfast and dinner. There’s also a souvenir shop, ramen & snack shop as well as an outdoor swimming pool which I couldn’t use as it is only available for use come summer time. Just across the road from the hotel, there’s the Waterside Cafe Terrace, a 7-Eleven convenience store adjacent to the hotel and since there’s no self-service washing machine/dryer in the hotel, the nearest 24h laundromat is around a 5-min walk from the hotel located behind the Waterside Cafe Terrace and across the road facing “Galarie Cafe Painto E”. On the day of check-out, the hotel helped to store my luggage and I had lunch at “Suzukawa Cafe” just next to Galarie Cafe Painto E. The food prices here are slightly cheaper than the ones near Kinugawa-Onsen station."

Hotel Harvest Kinugawa Hotels in Nikko

Hotel Harvest Kinugawa

"This property is very close to “Nikko” in Japan so it’s situated in a very scenic part of the country . I was the only foreigner staying ( at least as far as I could tell ) but that didn’t matter the interactions I had with non English speaking staff were both warm and helpful . In particular a young lady Ms Henmi she was outstanding , she gave me directions on how to best get to my next port of call. The facilities of the hotel, the room, the Onsen etc are amongst the best I’ve experienced in Japan ."

ISSINKAN Hotels in Nikko

ISSINKAN

"A long-established hot spring hotel! Including breakfast and dinner, it’s really cost-effective! The food is super delicious, from sashimi to small pots! Strawberry wine for appetizer, hot tea and dessert after meal! The hot springs are also quite good. We are a family of four adults with children, and we had a very satisfying stay! I've stayed in many hotels before that were twice as expensive as this one, but they felt about the same. The price-performance ratio is great, thumbs up!"

Turtle Inn Nikko Hotels in Nikko

Turtle Inn Nikko

"Me and my husband stayed together here while on Intrepid tour. Very happy to experience traditional Japanese ryokan. Private onsen was wonderful, especially after a big day out walking. Plus in the room there are traditional yukata you can wear to the onsen. There are nearby restaurant options if you want, or there is a communal fridge, freezer and microwave. With a supermarket 5 minutes walk. Very lovely place "

Kamenoi Hotel Okunikko Hotels in Nikko

Kamenoi Hotel Okunikko

"The hotel is quite new, and the room is very spacious. We enjoyed soaking in the hot springs at night and strolling along the Onsen street during the day. It's very close to the Yumoto Onsen Ski Resort, which was great as it was mostly locals skiing there. The only downside is that it's a bit far to get to; you have to take the bus and get off at stop number 45."

Oku Nikko Mori No Hotel Hotels in Nikko

Oku Nikko Mori No Hotel

"It's a small but very nice hotel! I really liked it! ...But I had the opportunity to stay twice in two months (in November and December) ...The same menu was served! (It's fine for the half buffet to have the same food, but I would have liked them to at least put more effort into the food they served! The menu was always accompanied by an explanation! (It is a forest hotel after all!) It was calming...and in any case, for a single stay...it was a relaxing and comfortable place to stay! (I wanted to say it was the best (the first time!!!)...Even after all these years, I still have a problem with the way the food is served...I haven't visited since?"

Nikko Station Hotel Building2 ★★★
"Choosing this hotel for our trip to Nikko was a great decision. The price was perfect for someone on a regular budget. The hotel was clean, and its location near Tobu Nikko Station was fantastic, about 300 meters if you follow the right navigation. My navigation kept changing directions after I got off the train, so I had to ask a local shop owner for directions, and then it was easy to find. Just walk a few steps down the small road past the post office, and you're there. The hotel offers free breakfast to all guests, and it's quite good! The room was clean, and the view from the window was lovely, with mountains and clouds, very picturesque! There's also a large supermarket across the street where you can buy delicious and reasonably priced sashimi."
