"何よりお料理が美味しかったです。見た目にも綺麗で満足できました。食事中の会話から、誕生日プレゼントまでいただき感謝してます。大浴場の利用もタオルなしで手ぶらで行けて、快適でした。ただ従業員の方が少し手薄な感じがしました。玄関を入った時誰もいないので、少し困惑しました。Wi-Fiが利用できなくて残念でした。"

"The Yunomori onsen ryokan was one of the best places I've ever stayed at. The Kaiseki breakfast and dinner was incredible and the staff were 10/10 amazing. We had an in-room onsen and it was perfect. The entire place was clean and incredibly cozy. I would absolutely recommend Yunomori to anybody! It's a short walk to Yuno Lake nearby and also some beautiful waterfalls. I highly recommend this place to stay in Nikko. It was a very special experience for us. "

"宿泊より日帰りメイン。チェックアウト11時は良心的だが、浴場清掃が22時〜翌11時と、宿泊日翌日は全く入浴できないのが一番の難点。源泉42.1℃、浴槽はほぼ36〜37℃と長湯にちょうどいいぬる湯がかけ流し。のんびり湯を楽しみたくても日帰り終了の20時まで入れ替わり立ち替わり。とりわけ19時前後は芋洗い状態… 食事は週末しか提供できない、浴衣は有料500円等々いろいろあるが、せっかく長湯したくても入浴可能時間が少ないのが不満。 Wi-Fi、キャッシュレス対応などは良い。"

Top Lake Chūzenji Hotel Reviews

Nikko Tokino Yuu

10/10 Excellent

"I would highly recommend this hotel. The staff are so friendly and helpful, making for a lovely stay. The rooms are Japanese style, very comfortable and clean. It is 1 minute from the beautiful Shinkyo Bridge and the edge of the national park. Walking distance to plenty of restaurants and cafes."

Koduchi no Yado Tsurukamedaikichi

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice hotel by the river bank with great views. Excellent half board."

Nikko Kanaya Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"It is a classic hotel but the annex building is fully renovated and beautiful. The room was comfortable with nice amenities. It was so calm and peaceful. I loved the tea set they provided and enjoyed the room overlooking the garden outside. Had very comfortable beds. Staff was nice and welcoming. Breakfast was nice too. The only downside was lack of dinner options in the area. We did a room service one night and had their famous curry… which was alright but expensive. We also had a meal at Meiji no Yakata nearby which was great. I think most restaurants were closed for dinner on weekdays though. There was a really good yuba place for lunch closed to the hotel."

Nikko Station Hotel Classic

8/10 Good

"It is right across from the train station and the bus loops. The staff was very helpful and pleasant. The room was warm even though we dropped the temperature as low as it could go. Everything else was great."

The Ritz-Carlton, Nikko

10/10 Excellent

"Walking distance to lake, waterfall, and national park. Relaxing and serene atmosphere."
