Situated in Nikko in the Tochigi region, with Tobu Nikko Station and Nikko Station nearby, Rakuten Stay Villa 日光 features accommodation with free WiFi and free private parking, as well as access to a sauna. It is set 2.6 km from Nikko Toshogu Shrine and offers private check-in and check-out. The villa has a hot spring bath and full-day security.

Well designed, modern villa with plenty of space, plenty of sunlight, and beautiful views through all the windows. Kitchen and washing machine were easy to use, and all appliances were modern. Bath with hot spring water was incredible. Quiet little cafe right across the road serves decent coffee. The walk into town was lovely, but a bit of a steep walk coming back up. Easier with a taxi.

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.

Loved the vibe of the place. Located inside a secluded forest area, very few houses around. Good parking spot. 1.3km from the nearest 711 and about 20 mins drive to Nikko center. The amenities were excellent - the kitchen has almost every utensils/tools. You have to get your own spices if you wanna cook. Enough bedding was provided, futons, pillows, blankets. There are 2 rooms, separated by sliding doors. Bathroom amenities are available too, shower gel, shampoo, toothbrush kit, towels and dryer. The best part was the music system. Looks like the owner is a fan of classic English music, they even had a record player! And originals record labels 🥺 And some CDs, guitar! We had a lovely time there. The deck opens to a gorgeous view too.

    Hidden gem! We loved our stay at this authentic traditional Japanese hotel, walking in kimono and resting in onsen. The rooms were cozy and spacious. The hotel staff was really friendly and helpful. The location is great, surrounded by nature and a short hike. We went for waterfalls and AMAZING Nikko shrines just in 15-30 min drive. Highly recommend!

    Great location for visiting the shrines and temples. Quiet and cosy, old style and comforting. Free tea and coffee and use of tableware if you want to eat your own food. Friendly owner with great advice about where to visit and where to eat. Spotless shared washrooms. Great private Japanese style baths for a good soak at the end of the day. Easy access by bus from the station. I enjoyed the breakfast of toast, an egg, fruit, and coffee (not included in my room price); it was perhaps a little pricey but very convenient.

    Very accommodating, and friendly, the proprietor helped us settle in the hotel premises early while waiting for check in time. The vegan dinner was scrumptious!! The living room is warm and cosy. The breakfast is lovely and all basic amenities are well served. Nestled in a quiet area, it’s a 15-20 min walk from the train station. A free shuttle does a few rounds from the hotel to the station. The proprietor himself offered to take us early to the station.

    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

    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!
