Fantastic 5.0
The Nikko hotel boasts a convenient location just a short distance from Nikko Station, making it an ideal base for travelers. Its proximity to the station makes getting around and exploring the city incredibly easy and hassle-free.

Nikko Station Hotel II, an excellent location right next to the station. The rooms are clean and comfortable, compact but complete. The service is friendly and courteous, great value for money, highly recommended for visiting Nikko!
Service: Some small items need to be requested from the front desk.
Cleanliness: Very clean
Breakfast: Simple meals

Beautiful and traditional, super large and very clean room. It has a private bathroom and an onsen overlooking the forest.

Great 4.0
The check-in process was highly unsatisfactory. We strongly advise against making reservations through Klook. We believe we should have received a pass code and room number, but no such information was provided. The room itself, however, was excellent, clean, and its facilities were in good condition.

it’s near the station, the tourist bus stops and there are a lot of restaurants nearby. They let us check in early without additional payment.

I highly recommend this hotel. The location alone receive a five stars. It is connected to the train station, mall, bus stop, convenience stores. the onsen Inside of the hotel makes your long travel day worthwhile. I also find that the bathhouse experience creates memorable bonds between people around you. Everyone was very respectful. Hotel is extremely clean and they even delivered new towels and waters to the room every day.

So glad I bought the NIKKO Pass All Area. It was really convenient and saved me a lot of money. One roundtrip from Yumoto Onsen is 3800¥, almost half the price of the All Area Nikko Pass. A few things to note: 1) Busses will not accept screenshots of your NIKKO Pass so make sure you have Wi-Fi, good LTE and if not, leave the pass open on your phone so it still works even with no connection 2) Take a look at the additional benefits of the All Area pass. You can go on the Lake Chuzenji cruise multiple times as long as you have the paper cruise ticket they give you. Also looks like you get a free day use of hot spring at Nikko Astoria hotel (I haven’t done it but looks like a new nice perk). Don’t forget discounts at stores with NIKKO Pass signage though I didn’t spot any. 3) Don’t forget to buy the Tobu Express tickets linked in the Highlights section of this page. Spacia X rides was very nice if you want to be fancy. Enjoy your time in Nikko!

Fantastic 5.0
We decided to purchase the physical Nikko Pass after reading that WiFi in Nikko can be unstable, and it was definitely the right choice. The connection really did drop in several areas, so having the physical pass to show the bus driver every time we boarded or got off made everything smooth and stress-free. I also noticed some passengers without the pass having small issues with their IC cards, which looked a bit inconvenient. The Nikko Pass saves time, avoids confusion, and is honestly such a good deal for the number of rides and areas it covers. Just a tip: Google Maps can be unreliable in Nikko, especially with bus timings, so it’s best to arrive at stops a little early. Overall, the Nikko Pass is a must if you want convenience and a much easier day exploring.
