What a delightful old world charm this hotel has. Great room and wonderful food. Definitely take the Japanese room with half board. The onsens were very nice. The location is superb right next door to the temple sites and forest.

A wonderful first experience in a Japanese hotel.

It was my first time in a ryokan and it didn't deceive me. All was perfect from the typical Japanese room with tatami, futon,... to the onsen. The dinner and the breakfast were each time different with lot of really good Japanese products. I feel more Japanese after this night than before !

東照宮にも歩いてすぐに行くことが出来て、立地は凄く良いです。車も宿の敷地内に置くことが出来たので良かったです。和洋室のお部屋はおそらくリニューアルしたのち小綺麗にされてますが、虫は多かったです。入り口やローカは修学旅行のお宿のような感じもありましたが、お部屋に入ると綺麗で驚きました。お食事も美味しくスタッフの方々は親切でよかったです。

日光東照宮に近いので選択。 受付ロビーはお寺と同じお香を焚いてるのか、お寺のような香りがします。 ◯良かった点 ・輪王寺や日光東照宮にとにかく近い。また、明治の館という人気の洋食レストランのすぐ隣りと立地最高！！ ・旅館の食事が味、ボリュームともに最高！！ ・宿泊者は荷物を預かって下さるので、重い荷物があっても楽に観光を楽しめます。 ・今回、多人数で利用しましたが、一人旅でも問題なく利用できます！（実際、何名か一人旅利用の方がいらっしゃいました） ⚪️改善希望点 ・部屋のドアなどは少し古さを感じます ・部屋のテレビは今の標準だと小さいと感じる人は多いかもしれません 少し意見を述べましたが、今回の旅行、こちらの旅館で本当に良かったと思いました。おすすめです！！

Worse than expected

The twin room was not as described, we were expecting at least a basic bathroom in the room that you can take a shower, while it's only a toilet - scam. And the room is really freezing in winter there's no heater, pyjamas provided was thin material. The worst hotel during my Japan stay.
