Fantastic 5.0
Hotel looks new and clean. The parking is just next to the hotel at overnight rate 1200 yen. Our room comes with 2 single beds and 1 sofa bed, room size just right for our family of 3. Staff was excellent, I accidentally left behind an item in the room and they helped me to retrieve it. In fact, I booked the same hotel for another night stay on my return trip to Tokyo. Highly recommend!

The location is a bit remote; after getting off the bus, you have to walk along a gravel path. However, the advantage is that the environment is truly quiet and secluded. The staff's attitude was excellent, and the overall experience was great. When leaving, you can ask a staff member to help call a taxi, and the taxi can come directly to the entrance, so you don't have to walk on the gravel path again.

This hotel is truly wonderful. It's about a ten-minute walk from Kinugawa-Onsen Station, right next to the Kinugawa Grand Suspension Bridge. The hotel even has a foot bath where you can soak your feet while enjoying the scenery. The rooms are incredibly spacious, and the entire hotel is very clean and well-maintained, feeling quite new. The large public baths switch between men's and women's sections in the daytime and evening, offering a very comfortable bathing experience. The buffet for the half-board plan (dinner and breakfast) has a rich variety of dishes. I will definitely come back to stay here for two days again in the future.

quite far from Nikko town so very quiet. The room is very big and no carpet so it clean. Toilet and bathroom separate and sink is outside. On the first floor has pantry for guest to relax with tea coffee and miso soup. also has ice maker machine, I love this hotel.

the 2 days pass is worth taking. we took the local train which is only one hour more than limited express. and the frequency of the train is very fast. unlike limited express, although is more comfortable, the ticket has to purchase in advance. the free bus ride allow us to take from station to the shinkyo bridge, then to the temple and back to hotel for 2 days. however, the bus is crowded. sometimes, we walk for short distance instead.

Fantastic 5.0
Smooth transaction and ride. We could have gotten this at a lower rate if we booked early, but due to the need to wait for visa, we only booked 2 weeks before our trip. It was easy to book and request to be dropped off at disney hotel rather than at Disneyland.
