Quiet and relaxing onsen inn, an economic choice as well. A short walk up from a bus stop, with a lovely view of the lake. Great for a relaxing get away.

Peaceful lake, quiet area, nice overall room. You can get there by bus, but it's coming once per hour and it doesn't run too late. The onsen had the sulphur smell (rotten egg), but it's the natural spring "flavor". Breakfast was specific japanese, though not really to our liking (no fault of the hotel)

Good: -Nice location, right beside Lake Nikko -Looks nice -Friendly staff Bad: -no attached showers -hotel is a bit old -restaurant doesn't serve walk-in diners (you need to book with meals or make requests in advance) Overall, nice little hotel in a really scenic area. It's lacking on the amenities side which makes it less value for money but overall from my drives around the area look like one of the better options. However I personally would not go back during a cold season as some parts of the walkways don't seem to be heated and it's really cold when you walk over to the common showers (no attached room showers).

Sejour en bord de lac

Très bon séjour en famille. Hôtel très facilement accessible juste en face de l arret de bus. Très bien placé face au lac pour de nombreuses balades et autres activités. Sejour typique japonais : chambre traditionnelles avec tatami, on dort sur des futons et on prend sa douche dans le onzen (superbe source d ailleurs). Seul reproche un petit coup de renovation pour remettre la decoration au gout du jour commence a se faire sentir. Pour le dîner pensez a reserver la veille.

Mitigé

L'endroit est beau, bien situé même si loin de Nikko, il faut compter 1h de bus. La chambre aussi est belle. Cependant, les chaussons d'intérieurs et extérieurs ne sont pas adaptés aux tailles occidentales, et sont impraticables. Les moquettes sont très sales, tachées partout. Certains futons et couvertures ne semblent pas propres. Le Onsen ne semble pas propre non plus. Les seules douches à ma disposition étaient dans les Onsen, donc publiques. Ok pour une nuit mais je ne recommande pas d'y passer plusieurs nuits

季節的なこととは理解できるのですが、窓は一切開けていないのに部屋にカメムシがたくさん発生して、怖かったです。どうやら以前から起きる事象の様です。スタッフさんは何とかしようとしてくれましたが、支配人がいらっしゃらないのか、伝えることもできず、結局は渡された殺虫剤を片手に30匹以上は自分で退治することになり、かなり疲れました。エアコンの吹き出し口や通気口など対策すべきです。
