Ancient temples hide among misty forests where carved dragons seem ready to spring to life at any moment. Tokugawa Ieyasu's magnificent mausoleum at Nikkō Tōshō-gū shrine dazzles with gold leaf and intricate details that craftsmen spent decades perfecting. The Japanese saying goes "Never say 'magnificent' until you've seen Nikkō" – and they're not exaggerating. After temple-hopping, soak weary muscles in steaming onsen with mountain views that change dramatically with the seasons. Sample delicate yuba (tofu skin) at traditional ryokans where hospitality remains unchanged for centuries. For family fun, Edo Wonderland recreates feudal Japan with samurai performances and ninja demonstrations. In winter, nearby ski resorts offer powder without Tokyo crowds.

Chuzenji Kanaya Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice hotel with a great location!"

Rakuten STAY VILLA Kinugawa Riverside

10/10 Excellent

"Stayed here while visiting Nikko. This is a single family home. What can we say. We loved the place. Very clean and safe. Bedroom upstairs more like a loft with 2 queen beds. One main restroom with the onsen and walk in shower. Also has the washer/dryer combo in place. Another restroom with toilet and small sink. There is 2nd restroom next to the kitchen area with toilet and sink. And a 3rd restroom by the main entrance with sauna and shower. Check in was relatively easy although we had to dial in a few times due to “high volime” of calls at the time. There were free drinks including water and tea, some juice and beer in the fridge. Appliances were a bit challenging to use as Google Translate was not the best, but we figured it out. Washer/dryer combo is eco-friendly so can only wash a few clothes at a time and it takes a long time to dry. Villa itself is about 11-14 min walk to the train station. Uber will get you from Nikko train station to the Villa, but they will not pick you up from Villa to Nikko so keep that in mind when you pack. We had to lug 2 suitcase each to the local train station in the morning to take the trains back to Nikko station to take our train back to Tokyo. That was not fun. So pack accordingly or rent a car. Villa also walkable to restaurants and 7-eleven. Restaurants nearby close early, so make sure you eat in Nikko before coming back. Or make reservations well in advance or you will be turned away. Would stay here again, but will rent car next time."

Kinugawa Onsen Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This is our first experience at a Japanese style hotel, ryokan. The overall stay was excellent as expected. The menu in their buffet (all you can eat) looked good, though we could go over most of menu items, too many items. The ones we tasted were excellent. We liked the variety of desserts served. We must mention that staff services were excellent in every aspect."

Nikko Station Hotel II bankan

10/10 Excellent

"I had a hard time finding this property. I went to a wrong place and met a local that helped communicate with a staff. Few minutes after, one of them came walking to find me. I really enjoyed this place. It’s not too far from the shrine and downtown area. Amenities are excellent and lovely staff"

Rakuten STAY VILLA Nikko

8/10 Good

"Property was beautifully equipped in the kitchen and for entertainment. The private "onsen" of the bathroom was phenomenal. It had a sauna, a cold plunge and mineral spring bath all together. Was not really convenient to town but only a kilometer out. Check was terrible as they do it all remotely and the system was down. I tried several times to check-in on their tablet. I then video called via their tablet and he couldn't do it after 15 minutes. They then emailed me 3 more times about it, a bit annoying. Check out is early and exact we were walking to the door at 10am as she was knocking on the door."
