It’s a historic property and has a quaint lodge elegance. The service and amenities are very nice. The food is delicious. The room is comfortable I wish there were more electrical outlets close to the beds but I was nonetheless able to charge my devices without issue. The location, just a very few minutes walk to the entrance to all the shrines, as well as to the bus stop, is super convenient.

This property has a rustic and tired charm and elegance about it. It is the country hotel of fifty years ago when such structures used local building materials. It wears its historic aura well!

Appreciated the hotel tour after check-in to learn a bit about its fascinating history and that the building and rooms have mostly maintained its interior design of catering toward western guests back in the days. The age of the facility was expected and added to its charm and if any complaint in that aspect, was the challenge that we had adjusting the room temperature at night when the radiators kicked on (I guess we could have just opened the windows). Great service by all the staff. We enjoyed our dinner and breakfast at the hotel's restaurant. Hotel is situated in a very convenient location to visit the Nikko To-sho-gu.

Step back in time- we love historic hotels. Fabulous staff and service. Incredible views from our room and walkable (hilly) to bridge and shrines. Dinner and breakfast delightfully served with beautiful china, crystal and silver. The hotel is a bit historically 'tired' but very clean. For those who desire newer rooms, they are completely restoring one building which will open this summer.

The shower drained properly; however, they immediately acted to solve the problem. It was wonderful to see the Japanese high quality of service: they even gave a box of cookies to show appreciation for our patience.

Expedia says the hotel does not have a front desk but it does, and it is staffed 24/7. We have a room in the old section with high ceiling and 2 super huge picture windows looking at the mountains with the sound of a running stream below. The location is fantastic, being right next to Shinkyo Bridge and all the historical sights. The bedding leaves much to be desired, however. It appears the synthetic bedcover doubles up as a quilt so it becomes hot and uncomfortable in the night. The use of chemical air freshener gave me allergic rhinitis throughout our 3- night stay. The bathroom basin is super low. Only western food is served at the restaurant and it is average. There is nothing much to eat at night as almost all eateries close at 6pm or before. There is no lift in our building so you would need to have the luggage lugged - in our case, 3 floors up, but the staff helped us. In all, I would stay there again, but maybe for only one night.

Relics of Yesteryear
Nice hotel with a lot of old pictures --- reminded me of the hotel in "The Shining" but not scary. A lot of period art work and nice architectural details. Most restaurants in the area close early (5:00 PM) and the main dining hall charges over $100 for a prix fixe course meal. Breakfast is not a buffet but served individually, so one has to wait until the coffee is served, toast is brought to your desk, etc. The hours for breakfast (7:30-9:30 AM) isn't convenient --- our original plan was taking a bus to the Kegon waterfall soon after 8:00 AM but with the breakfast time, it turned out to be impossible.

Great location for visiting Nikko Shrines. Historically significant hotel built in 1873. Huge room. No bathtub in bathroom, only shower. Beautiful lobby. Try the trout for dinner.
