Very friendly service staff, especially the two elder ladies who served dinner and breakfast. The Japanese meals purchased as add-ons were incredible - a true taste of Japan with quality food and cooking. Hotel is right at the entrance to the World Heritage site. Authentic Japanese experience with beds and onsen.

“Great food, great traditional japanese ryokan experience, great location.”
I got to experience delicious kaiseki meal for breakfast and dinner for 3 day 2 nights and they were varied or different for each meal. The staff is really hospitable, they were really nice. The hotspring is also really great. The room is really spacious.

“We had a very relaxing time and felt very welcome. We would definitely stay again!”
Fantastic location with very friendly staff and impeccable service. The food was seasonal, authentic, and obviously prepared with great care. We enjoyed the onsen and the proximity to cultural heritage sites of Nikko. They have a shuttle service to the train station at checkout time, inform them at least the day before.
