The shrines and temples of Nikko have been recognized by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site. Here, you can visit the Toshogu Shrine, which dates from the 17th century and is a monument to (and the mausoleum of) Tokugawa Ieyasu, the founder of a shogunate that ruled Japan for 250 years. Travelers day-tripping from Tokyo generally focus on the sacred sites, but if you have extra time, explore the area’s beautiful waterfalls and lakes.

We are loccated in the heart of Nikko. 5 minutes from Nikko station by bus or taxi, 10 minutes walk to the world heritage site "The Shrines and temples of Nikko". You will be pleased by Local specialty dinner and garden view Onsen(hot spa). We welcome you with hospitality.
After 7 years in Japan, I belatedly got around to visiting Nikko, a delightful experience. This hotel is ideally situated for an overnight or multi-night stay connected with the World Heritage Site shrines and also attractions in the surrounding mountains, notably Chuzenji lake and its impressive Kegon Falls. While the structure is modern and rather nondescript at first site, it features a truly beautiful Japanese-style garden, lovingly tended, in which I spent much pleasant time reading, and operates as a ryokan, with shared onsen baths cleverly and attractively designed to open out straight onto verdant nature. The rooms are comfortable, featuring two western-style armchairs and a matching table, as well as more traditional items. The view from my large window of the mountains, against which Nikko backs, was magnificent. Excellent breakfast and dinner daily, mostly Japanese, but Western one morning, endlessly helpful staff speaking excellent English, a very attentive and knowledgeable proprietress all round out one of the most memorable hotel stays I have had to date in the country. Bravo! And warm thanks to the hotel team.

Very far from Kinugawa hot spring station, 1.5 hours local bus and 30min shuttle bus by this ryokan. We went to this place for 2-days family reunion at early April. We enjoyed absolutely fantastic Japanese dish at every evening and morning. I cannot admire enough these delicious foods which are not soy-sauce-full, Kanto-like taste. On the second day, menus differed from the first day (dinners and breakfast). Rooms and the lounge are also comfy. We spent plenty of time In the lounge, enjoyed reading (as we planned), "gomokunarabe", and free massage chair. There was also a "Shogi-ban". Even though the snow was piling up outside, the wood stove warmed the lounge enough. The hotel stuff (most of them are from other Asian countries) work enthusiastically. We shall return!

My wife and I booked the Nikko Station Hotel II for April 13 - 15 as a non refundable reservation. This week, the US State Dept issued a Level 4 warning for all US citizens to avoid international travel due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In spite of their normal policy, the Nikko Station Hotel II made an exception due to the COVID-19 pandemic and issued a full refund. We will reschedule our trip to Japan after the pandemic passes and WILL DEFINITELY rebook at the Nikko Station Hotel II, as they have shown excellent customer service in a difficult time!

Rather old but quite big hotel with nice and various food buffet style breakfast and dinner. Quite convenient location. Dial bus going to the station and local theme parks is available. Friendly and helpful staff. Room interior and its facilities are quite old styled, especially safe and fridge. Old tobacco smell inside the room is irritating. Indoor and outdoor spa are disappointing, very small and not really worth attending.

Hotel Hanaan was a great location to stay to visit nearby Nikko and as a car enthusiast it was a welcome location to be right at the top of Irohazaka. We had a room with a private onsen and the room was always well kept and had ample space. The views were spectacular of Lake Chuzenji and the Torii gate over the village. Honestly I was hopeful for the nearby restaurants but most of the ones within walking distance were a bit subpar and we had better luck at the bottom of the mountain. The food served in the ryokan was as expected and as someone who doesn't eat a lot of sea food, they did go above and beyond to make sure I still had something for me to eat while my wife ate and enjoyed the standard menu. The staff was friendly and we were able to get by on English. Overall it was a very memorable experience and probably one of the nicer rooms we've stayed in during our trips to Japan. This review is a bit late and we were really there in November 2019 - keep in mind that it does get colder and the foliage falls a lot sooner at that top than down below. So while Nikko was gorgeous, up at the lake it was definitely past it's peak and I wish we had gone a couple weeks earlier.

In the cafe on the first floor, there is an open hearth space and a relaxation space. One of the attractions is accommodation from 3,000 yen per night, all rooms with lake view. A coin launderette is also provided for long-term stays. While watching the beautiful scenery that changes from season to season, spend time slowly flowing. Walking distance to sightseeing spots of World Heritage.
I stayed a night in the dormitories of Simplest Nikko, in August 2020. Dormitories are all-new so I was expecting something nice. Location is also really nice, 10 m from the lake. But I was very disappointed. - Check In : very poor organisation, waited 30 min. Only one person to check-in several families. - Bed : I paid way too much for dormitories where you have to basically do your ENTIRE bed. The futon quality is bad, the sheets are not very nice at touch. - Baths (public) : The inner-bath has a very strong suffer smell. Be prepared. The outside bath was disgusting. The water was green instead of blue. Seaweed on the bottom of the bath at some places. Hair floating etc. - Wifi : The dormitories have 6 Wi-Fi hotspots. None of them was working from my bed until 10pm. - Breakfast : Definitely not worth the 1,100y. - Shared area dormitories : No efforts put in this area : so depressing / gloom. Overall : non very professional. Way too expensive for what it is.

We stayed here with our three young children, ages 5, 8 and 10. All five of us thoroughly enjoyed the hotel. We stayed in a traditional Japanese room which was quite comfortable in the family room with plenty of space for all of our futons. We enjoyed the Onsen so much! We were there for our first time so we just watched what others did. The staff there were remarkable! They helped to make our stay lovely, conversed with our kids and gave them presents. We loved being able to pick out our yukatas--we are big fans! The entire hotel was spotless. Highly recommend!!! It's a gorgeous setting in the mountains. There is also a good restaurant a short walk away.

Hotel located five minutes walk from the last bus stop by yumoto onsen line. I got a great service from staff. About food, they served a small portion of a variety of things all are good taste but beer not included in dinner only one small glass of wine if you want more you have to pay for it. Onsen bath outdoor smaller than I think but it's OK for me cause I stayed in a low season so only me in a bath. From hotel you can walk to a lake I think views of lake so nice good to relax and take a deep breath.

My family stayed here two nights and enjoyed it very much. The onset was lovely and relaxing after a day of walking in the mountains. If one is comfortable sleeping on a futon on tatami flooring, it was fun to have everyone together in one room. The food was incredible - one dinner had 23 separate items! The staff were welcoming and went out of their way to see that all our needs were met. I don't understand the other reviews at all! I wish we'd had one more day, to take a kayak down the river that flows below the hotel.
