Spa Hotels in Nikko

Well, it’s the Ritz Carlton, so expect the price and expect the proportional experience! Staff was super attentive from the moment I got on the shuttle bus to the moment I step off the bus going back to Tokyo. My Rooms was impressively spacious and impeccably appointed. I just havs breakfast once during my two nights stay, it was professionally prepared and it was priced accordingly ( very high end😂！）I decided to go on a diet so I can go back to eat in Tokyo, all joking aside, it was a great soul healing and spirit rejuvenating journey to visit Nikko😆😆😆

The room was spacious and the food was good. The only downside was that the air conditioning vent blew directly onto the head of the bed, which gave me a headache. I'm not sure why it was designed that way.

The room was spacious, the bed was comfortable, and the view was great. The free cocktail and coffee services in the lobby were nice, as well as the free drink bar (including one beer per person) near the entrance to the hot spring. The paid massage service was also good. The meals were decent, especially the grilled beef, which simply melted in my mouth. The restaurant staff welcomed us warmly and provided friendly service. Cons: The variety of hot springs was lacking, and the view from the hot springs was almost blocked, which was disappointing. The lockers for valuables used combination dials, and foreign guests often didn’t know how to use them, locking their room keys inside and struggling to reopen them. This was a major inconvenience. They should switch to a key-and-wristband system like other onsen hotels. The room itself felt like an old, once-grand mansion that had seen better days. The furniture had many scratches, and the surfaces were worn and peeling. It made me think it must have been impressive in the past. Still, the room was definitely more spacious compared to other hotels.

The hotel is nestled in the mountains, but unfortunately, there's no shuttle service. If you take the public bus, you'll still have a bit of a walk to get there. Taking the inclined lift from the entrance to the lobby was a novel experience. Typically, hotels like this often have a lounge, but this one didn't. The room did come with two drip coffee bags and two types of snacks. The hot spring bath is a bit small, so you have to take turns. Other than that, everything else you'd expect was there. The meals were delicate and light, which suited our taste perfectly, though meat lovers might find them a bit too vegetarian. After dinner, we went for a stroll to the Frai-Aai Bridge and saw the impressive Red Ogre wielding a mace.

Hotel location is good! Opposite is Shenqiao, about 10 minutes away from Toshogu Shrine and Erhuangshan Shrine. The hotel staff was polite, the rooms were not as old as expected, and they were neat. There is a tea room on each floor, with green tea, barley tea and hot water supply. Although the bath is not hot spring water, fatigue can be eliminated after bathing. Breakfast is simple and delicious. The only drawback is that you cannot store your luggage after check out. Attach a landscape photo outside the room.

It is more than 2 kilometers away from Nikko Tobu Station. There are buses to Shinkyo Bridge. It takes about 10 minutes to walk after getting off the bus. I didn't take the bus, but walked from the station for half an hour. There are many slopes, especially after Shinkyo Bridge, there are steps all the way uphill, which is quite tiring. It should be good if you drive by yourself. It is very close to Toshogu Shrine, an 8-minute walk. Japanese-style rooms, with indoor and outdoor public baths (separate for men and women). The dinner and breakfast included in the room are amazing. Overall, it is worth experiencing.

We liked the hotel very much. It surely needs renovation in some areas, but you forget about this, because the hotel service is very good. The staff is very helful and welcoming, many free amenities are provided: yukata clothes for kids for all ages, socks for geta shoes, face sheet masks for ladies. Futons are very cosy, kaiseki dinner was worth it, but if your kids do not like Japanese style food, you need to think of it beforehand. Onsen area is very nice. It has pool also. I would recommend to stay in this hotel and enjoy Japanese experience.

Wow! This place was fantastic! The staff are all courteous and professional. The hotel rooms are really clean, and the atmosphere is so relaxing and tranquil. I really enjoyed the nature vibes, and the river view by the window is perfect! The sound of the water flow and birds chirping made it to be a great night's sleep. The morning scenery is even better. I have no complaints. It was a great place to stop and rest and admire your surroundings. Take advantage of the swimming pool and the hot springs. (FYI: No tattoos allowed in case you have any, so you won't be alarmed when you see the sign.) Otherwise, everything was great about my stay! ☺️

Very good hot spring 酒店 ️ hotel, pure Japanese style, tatami. Breakfast and dinner are attentive and very delicate. 15 minutes by car from downtown Nikko, and close to the attractions of Nikko Tosho, within 20 minutes by car

朝/夕食のバイキングは種類も多く、値段以上に豪華なステーキ、刺身、イクラ等は質が良いものが提供されており、とても良かった。 温泉の設備やホテルの設備はフロント以外がとても古く、温泉のシャワーは水圧が異常に弱い。 温泉の温度も入浴の時間帯によって、温水プールのような温度の時や、熱くて入れない程のこともある。 ただし、値段から考えると十分満足出来る内容であり、鬼怒川/日光エリアや、那須までのアクセスも良く、コストパフォーマンスを求めるならとても良いホテルかと思う。
