Hotels Near Kinugawaonsen Station in Nikko

I was disturbed by my family. Because it was summer, it was a little empty, but not only the proprietress but also the staff treated everyone, including foreigners, politely and kindly, and I was able to spend a pleasant time. The view of the Kinugawa river from the room was beautiful, and the bathroom was well-cleaned and beautiful. The room and toilet were clean. In addition, both dinner and breakfast were delicious with full Japanese taste. However, it may have been an adult taste for children in their teens.

I went with 4 family members. It was cheap for half board per night, so I was a little worried, but I was worried. The room had the next room like a mahjong room. It was a room that I had been to a company on a employee trip around the Showa era. It was old, but there was no problem with cleaning, and the mountain stream was overlooked and the view was good. The meal is buffet style. Alcohol is an extra charge, and there is an all-you-can-drink plan for 60 or 90 minutes, and it is better for those who say that it is alcohol. I had a 90-minute all-you-can-drink plan and enjoyed eating for 90 minutes. There were quite a few types of dinner and breakfast, and I enjoyed various things according to my taste. Maybe it was due to the time, but the meal and the hot springs were soaked that I was able to relax.

Asaya is a large onsen hotel rather isolated from stores, shops, and restos. Inside there are lots of them but I could not find a cup of coffee at 4:00 AM. There is free tea dispenser in the lobby. We all had access to the Premiere Club room by 6:00 AM where we could enjoy snacks and drinks and coffee. Breakfast is served for guests. We ate there and in the main dining room for one of our breakfasts. I loved their beef jerky which I took to my room to eat later. The main dining room for breakfast and dinner offered a hidden room with semi-privacy. The size of our tatami room with Premiere access was just enormous -- about as large as any hotel room I have ever had (one exception was in a Las Vegas hotel). The floor was mainly tatami mats but bamboo flooring in the bathroom and toilet rooms. The housekeeping is immaculate with daily service. There's a long queue just before dinner at 5:30. The food was delicious and plentiful with steak, crab legs, tempera, sashimi, and other seafoods. I enjoyed the soft serve.

This is my third trip/adventure to Japan. I would say as a solo traveler this has to be one of the very best places I have ever stayed in when travelling around Japan. I came to Nikko np to explore the vast array of hiking trails, all of which I did, had breathtaking views and a poetic, truly majestic Japanese feel to them. I rented a car from Nasushiobara (Shinkansen) and drove across to Kinugawa. On arrival I was greeted by a host of the hotel staff, welcoming me and helping me with parking and my bags. I checked in with ease and with some broken English and Japanese on my part was led to a beautiful traditional Japanese style room overlooking the river. The service throughout was world class and made me feel both very comfortable, at home, but also special. I stayed 3 nights with half board (breakfast and dinner), both truly amazing and served with grace and politeness. On the first evening’s dinner one of the serving staff took the time to speak with me and allowed me to share some of my recent experiences/photos etc whilst preparing dinner - this was most welcome, especially as I had been travelling alone for over a week. The location of the onsen hotel is about 60 mins drive to some of the most sought after walks in the np. Very easy to access by car and excellent roads. The accommodation itself is a mix between very traditional Japanese resort and original/boutique Ryokan. The private and public onsen’s are fantastic and a well deserved rest-bite after a long days hiking! Having been to some of the most popular ryokan’s in Japan; Iwaso, Claska etc, this came as a very nice surprise and at an affordable rate without any compromise. If in the area, I would highly recommend staying…

I went to this inn by train, but I couldn't find a good time, so I waited about two hours before I finally got to the nearest one. The location is not in the city center, so it was a little inconvenient to take the train, but it made up for it by being able to stay in nature, which was a valuable experience. The building is quaint and the atmosphere is great. I wanted to stay one more night. In the morning, I could see a family of monkeys from the window, and I was able to spend time with a view that I don't usually see. There are no convenience stores nearby, so I bought some snacks in advance. Next time I'd like to visit by car.

What a remarkable experience! The inability to find words speaks volumes. Everything was flawless, meeting high Western standards. Additionally, we inadvertently left a sweater in the room as we continued to Tokyo. Upon contacting the hotel, the staff were immensely helpful in resolving the issue. They efficiently arranged for the sweater to be delivered to Tokyo, saving us considerable effort and allowing us to continue our journey peacefully. The service was exceptional, especially considering that the responsibility was entirely ours. Absolutely outstanding service..

I'm glad we were able to stay at the coveted Kanaya Hotel. The hotel's interior and the service from the hotel staff were excellent. The hotel staff provided a tour of the hotel, explaining the hotel's history and features, as well as the famous people who have stayed there. We were able to once again appreciate just how wonderful the hotel is. It will be a lifelong memory for my husband and I. We hope to come and stay here again someday.

The hotel is a luxurious Ryokan in Nikko, walking distance from all the temple. The bus station is directly at the hotel, also offers a shuttle to the train station (JR and Tobu). The rooms are typically Japanese-style furnished and very spacious. The person was not overwhelming by friendship, as we have never experienced. Onsen in the hotel was genial and also the rent kimono (named Yukata) gave the whole a typical Japanese style. The food is typically Japanese including breakfast and may not everyone's thing. Whoever does not want raw fish for breakfast, maybe should book here without meals.

Fantastic service and experience. Seamless check-in from the moment we were greeted at the front porch all the way being orienteered around the hotel and escorted to the hotel. Facilities immaculate, especially loved the Onsen. Information regarding our dietary requirements have been communicated well through the different teams at the hotel.

We stayed 3 nights in a large room with 4 beds, 2 adults 2 teenagers. Just be conscious that the hotel is on Lake Chuzenji which is 30 or 40 minutes out of Nikko proper, served by a regular bus that goes up and down the mountain stopping at the different lakes, waterfalls, onsens, and historical sites. Hotel has own indoor and outdoor onsen which is fantastic. The chef does a nightly 3-5 course Japanese banquet which we found a bit challenging but was amazing. Different every night. The chef made our young daughter Japanese beef curry when she was struggling with the banquet.somewhat traditional, house robe and slippers in the house and so on. Definitely worth a visit.
