This place was amazing! The half board dinner was incredible, the location was stunning. The mineral hot spring was just what I needed after days of traveling. Would absolutely recommend this spot to anyone and can’t wait to come back!

The spa was efficiently run. It was a good family hotel which catered for children with acivities for them to do. It had been built in the 1970s and is in need of an upgrade. They over relied on disposable plastic items.

The staffwas friendly and accommodating. Talking on the phone was difficult due to language barrier, but there were a couple English speakers on staff that were able to assist us. The location was perfect. The property is on a cliff overlooking the lake and theres a suspension bridge behind it. Mountain views everywhere. Breakfast was good. I loved our room. It was a little warm, but they were able to give us fans for the room. THE ONSENS WERE AN AMAZING EXPERIENCE! If you have tattoos, either cover them or reserve a private onsen.

Great place with onsen. Nice view and area. The kaiseki dinner was not great, recommend them to increase the quality of the food and decrease the quantity

The staff was good. Check in was easy. We loved the traditional Japanese room. It was large and the views were incredible. Location was just what we were looking for. It is an older hotel and the bathroom smelled a bit old. We would return!

Great onsen and service

The hotel is quite retro, think faded grandeur. The staff were very helpful and there is a free shuttle bus to the train station you can book which is very welcome with all the bags. We stayed in the Japanese room and the staff came to lay out the beds beautifully whilst we were dining. The big plus for this hotel is the onsen and outdoor foot bath cafe with a view. We went on a busy weekend but there was plenty of space and everyone was very friendly to me and my daughter. We had half board and this was welcome after nearly 2 weeks of finding restaurants every meal time. It was a buffet style with lots of choice though it was the same foods Over 3 nights we stayed. The breakfast also gave a good selection. They had special kids area for food though my kids loved from all areas. If your plans are centred around Nikko then perhaps consider hiring a car which we did one day by the train station.

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.
