It is a little worried that there is no convenience store in the neighborhood of the facility. However, there is no problem because some things can be purchased in the facility. Since a free shuttle bus is circling Utsunomiya station and TOBU Utsunomiya station, it was easy to use the movement in front of the station. If it is a deluxe type cabin, there is a small desk, so you can work on a PC without problems.
The room size is comparable to typical business hotels in Japan, which was quite comfortable. There's a public bath on the first floor. Although breakfast isn't included, you can add 700 yen for a buffet breakfast, which was delicious and a much better option than eating out. The owner was also very welcoming. Even though the front desk was unstaffed between 10 AM and check-in time, there are four paid lockers outside the hotel for luggage storage. What's particularly convenient is its proximity to the station, just about a 4-minute walk, and it's also not far from the only supermarket near the station.
I went by car, but the paid parking lot was full and it was difficult to find a parking space. The station is nearby, so it's more convenient to take the train. There is also a convenience store within walking distance, so it's convenient. The room was very ordinary, but I only stayed there for a night, so it was no problem at all.
Service was excellent! Some staff can speak English. Busy hotel but got enough parking. Location is convenient, there are restaurant nearby. Room is semi-double but we got enough space. Got breakfast however the breakfast time is pretty early from 6am to 8:30am. (Check out time is 10am) We went down at 7:45am, but food was almost gone, but staff no refill anymore, this might need to be improved. Also the room inside and the bathroom are a bit old, carpet is a bit dirty, this might need to be improved too. But overall, its pretty good to stay a few nights.
Convenient place just across Tobu Nikko station. For one night we had all we needed in our twin room, which was like a studio: private bathroom, kitchen corner with microwave, kettle, sink and fridge (no kitchen amenities), balcony with view. Heating and heated blanket did their job in the cold night. There’s a Supermarket and a Laundry service close by.
The hotel needs for sure some maintenance and insulation can be improved as it was very cold.
The only way to get to upper floors is by elevator, as I tried using the stairs but they were blocked by piles of sheets, which is not ideal as there should be emergency exits! Not really a budget accommodation compared to other places I stayed in Japan and for the standard offered.
The station is right in front of the hotel. The parking lot is next door.
The hotel is clean and seems to have a variety of room designs, so I would definitely like to stay here again.
I stayed here the night before playing golf, and I was surprised to find that there was a simulation golf shop on the second floor,
which was spacious and clean.
Guests received a discount of 2,100 yen for 50 minutes, which I was very happy with.
The hotel's website is run by a different company, so
there is no information about it, but I hope they provide proper guidance.
This would surely increase reservations!
The TV remote in the room was covered in dust.
There were dead bugs on the bathroom ceiling.
There was hair on the wall.
Maybe the cleaning wasn't very thorough?
I'll stay again.
Actually, the cp value is quite high.
You have to have a room for yourself, the price is not expensive.
It's just old.
The gates will close at 11 p.m.
Get in and out of the side door.
About 800 m from the station
Advantages:
Go ahead and have a fresh supermarket
2. The room is small and well equipped
3. There is an elevator, a public bath for men and women
Disadvantages:
The whole building is very old
If you’re still hesitating about staying here, don’t!
The host is super friendly, caring, and treats you like family.
They even recommend where to go and how to get to each bus stop.
The place isn’t far from the train station — you can easily walk there.
The auntie is really lovely too.
I’d definitely stay here again if I get the chance.
I was able to go to my dream destination, Nikko Toshogu Shrine!
It was within walking distance!
It had a very log cabin-like atmosphere
and it really got me excited!
Please see the photos for more details!
I would definitely recommend it to those who plan to travel to Oze and Nikko National Park.
In particular, if you travel here by rental car, you can eat cheap shunbakbi, spacious room, large, delicious breakfast family meal for free here.

Very Good
Jjlow123Most of the reviews are outdated so I thought I'd give an updated review. For one thing, there is WiFi (I have informed the landlady that the website indicates otherwise).
This place is a traditional-style inn. You'll be sleeping in a futon (some Google-fu should help you know how to use one), use two pairs of slippers (one for moving around the house, one exclusively for the toilet) and will also bathe in a Japanese-style shared bathroom. The front gate and bathroom close at 10pm, which is not an issue as everywhere in Nikko closes early and it's too dark to hike outdoors (in early Autumn).
We loved using the onsen to relax after a day of strolling around and hiking, and the delicious Japanese-style breakfast was lovingly prepared by a friendly old granny. The premises are old but well-maintained. Toilets, bathroom and onsen were great but we were there during off-peak season so we didn't need to share so much. Should we return to Nikko, this place will be our first choice!
LLena DovganIt was the perfect place for me to reset and refresh. The hostel is surrounded by beautiful nature and has a hot spring, just what I needed in a getaway from the big city.
The common space is designed beautifully and has two very comfortable kitchens, big fridges, and everything you might need for a comfortable stay.
The staff was very friendly and helpful, one night the hostel even arranged a hot pot dinner. First I stayed in a standard room but I ended up extending my stay here, this time in the women's only dormitory. Both the private room and the dormitory room were very comfortable and had everything I needed.
Long walks was just what I needed but it looks like there's quite a lot to do around if you drive just a little bit, so I would recommend coming by car or renting one at the train station.
I can't wait for my next visit here.

TTL.TeddyWe were hosted by an elderly couple, and his family members. They were super cute, friendly and polite. It's like their small family business, ground floor was a western restaurant, second floor onwards were all the guest rooms. They know a bit of English, so the communication wise no issue at all. What we love about this stay is that other than the room with gorgeous lake view, the host was super helpful to allow us to store our luggage with them even way before our check-in timing. Furthermore he even offer to send us to the laundry shop, when we just casually ask him about the laundry. What actually surprised me the most, was that he even FETCH us from the laundry shop after we were done. Will definitely come back to this place again if I'm in Nikko! Thumbs up! Super host!! 😁

NNieva MayThe place is a 25-30 minute walk from the Tobu Nikko station, but you can actually take bus going there. However we didn't know the buses only run until 3 in the afternoon so we had no choice but to walk an uphill road. However it was a very fun experience and the hike was worth it as soon as we were able to take a rest in this humble pension house. The owner was very accommodating, gave us strawberry ice cream and even offered us a ride to the station the next morning. I would say that this place gave us the best definition of ”omotenashi”. Someday when we go back in Nikko , we'll surely stay here once again.

GGuest UserThe guesthouse is quite a way from Nikko town (10-15 mins by bus / 1 hour walk) but is in a good location for getting to the shrines or to Lake Ashi - there's a bus stop close by. The guesthouse was homely and had 2 private onsen. Our room was comfortable enough although the en-suite was very tiny! The host was welcoming but didn't speak any English which meant we had to communicate by translating on our phones. We booked to have breakfast at the guesthouse, but didn't realise that for booking the dinner we needed to give 24 hours+ notice so missed out!
GGuest UserChecked in after 15:00 and when the auto lock was not working well, 3 PINs were given, and 2 of them could not be unlocked and the remaining 1 was vacant. When you enter the room, there is a refrigerator, microwave oven, TV, and bed inside, and the cleanliness is maintained and the score is high! The bath and toilet are beautiful, but they smell different from the room. I don't smoke, so I'm sensitive to those scents. I immediately used the deodorant spray installed at the entrance.
I told the front desk about the situation at the time of check-out the next day. Because it was a hotel of this type, I couldn't hear the sound next door and it was quiet. Also, there were 4 kinds of frozen lunch boxes for breakfast, and it was delicious. Amenities are also common, and the overall point is 4.5 point, and the fragrance problem is -1 point.
I forgot to take a picture of the room (^^;;
