The property is set 23 km from Nikko Toshogu Shrine, 39 km from Kegon Falls and 23 km from Rinno-ji Temple. The property also offers private parking and facilities for disabled guests.

Modern, clean, comfortable beds, spacious for a family. A very short walk from train station, using the foot bridge that goes from the station and over the railway tracks. We found it easy with our big suitcases.Has an auto-fill bathtub, and auto-reheats the bath water too. 3 comfortable double beds in one room, plus a tatami room. Toilet upstairs and downstairs. Kitchen has everything you need to make meals, incl fridge, microwave, rice cooker and kettle. Laundry liquid supplied for washing machine. Lawsons store nearby for groceries. Instructions provided in English in the house manual for operating the washing machine and hot water and appliances. A wonderful stay and we would highly recommend this if you want to be near Edo Wonderland (4km away) (there is a local bus, shuttle bus and taxi) and the suspension bridge walk to the lookout (12min walk). Easy to get a train to Nikko to see the shrines and abyss - highly recommend to book in advance the free volunteer guide Yumiko to show you around Nikko.

    Nikko Station Hotel Classic is in a great location for JR & Tobu Nikko train services as well as the World Heritage Sightseeing Bus. The staff at the front desk were very welcoming, kind and informative and spoke very good english which we really appreciated. The room was cozy, clean and the amenities provided were of a good standard. It was a great place to stay after a long day of travel, the bed was comfy.

    A great location next to the river and Shinkyo bridge. World Heritage area minutes away. Great access to everything. The room felt very luxurious with lots of personal touches. The breakfasts were amazing and the small bar was a treat after temple wanderings. Evening meal offerings were simple but delicious. The charming hosts made our stay very special.

    An unforgettable stay Thanks to the owner Mr Yoshi and his guest house, everything was great and cosy. For our 35-year engagement anniversary we decided to take an unforgettable trip to Japan with our children and we could not miss a visit to one of the most beautiful UNESCO heritage sites with temples set in the green mountains and the shinkyo bridge

    We received such a warm welcome, including a very detailed map with handwritten notes and recommendations. It was above and beyond. The villa was super comfortable and cozy and had everything you'd need. I slept so well on the futon beds. Nikko and the Guesthouse were lovely and charming. We only stayed one night but wish we had more time. Highly recommend and hope to come back some day!

    The accommodation run by lovely elderly couple who have such a big heart and full of service mind. Room is clean and cozy. The room cost exclusive breakfast but they made it for free. The day we arrived it snow heavily, my friend shoe sole came off and the landlord fixed it for her, otherwise she won't able to travel around Nikko as the shoe shop closed. Beside that the next day, the landlord drove us to the Nikko heritage area and train station with no extra charge. I would like to rate this accommodation millions out of ten :)

    Check in was easy and english friendly. The lodge has a cozy atmosphere. There were many teas and treats to enjoy in the lounge. The wood oven keeps the louge nice and hot while you drink beer and watch tv. The big bed was comfy and the rooms are clean and spacious. We had the privilege of having the hamburger steak set for dinner. Hands down the best. If you stay here get it. Seriously. Don't miss out.

    I stayed with a group of friends and the cottage itself was new and very lovely. The atmosphere was very comfortable and you could tell the host put a lot of effort into small details. The amenities and additional perks (tea, coffee etc.) were very high quality. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a cozy getaway from the city!
