Very helpful staff but property is very dated and air conditioning was very weak. The onsen and bridge are really nice. Food was okay but had lots of variety. The view was fantastic.

Fantastic Room Deal
I booked a room that has private open air onsen at balcony on the top floor with exquisite view of beautiful Kinugawa River and mountain. This deal offered Kaiseki meals, and surprisingly, I was able to eat everything though one of two nights dinner was massive! Staffs are wonderful, and I was very lucky to see fireworks from right outside of this facility during the weekend event. I've been here 3 times..... I will come back again for sure.

This hotel was a bit hard to get to with 3 luggages to cart around (transferring from JR line to Tobu-Nikko line). However, the hotel staff helped us organised to transfer our luggages to our next hotel in Osaka (additional fees but so worth it for us and we were able to enjoy the Nikko area more freely). We booked our accommodation with kaiseki dinner and breakfast and it was simply devine! Japanese food was served in our own private table away from the crowd and it was another level. Our dinner and breakfast attendant was Freska and she explained our dishes in English. She also spoke Indonesian and Japanese and was so friendly. Our room had a private onsen, two twin beds and the hotel staff set up a futton bedding in the Japanese style living room while we were eating dinner. The room we had was spacious and offered us a peaceful mountain view. The hotel facilities was on the older side but we came for the hot spring experience and we could see this hotel was also popular Japanese families visiting from other parts of Japan.

Nice place and really nice breakfast and dinner. Rooms were traditional Japanese which was really cool to experience. Room had a slight funky smell to it but had a super nice view of the river/mountains. Overall I would stay there again.. No coffee in the room and you had to purchase bottle coffe drinks downstairs and heat them up in a perculator that is all in all japanese and takes a while to figure it out. Really nice staff!

The lady with really short hair at the reception is extremely helpful. We had breakfast and dinner buffet at the hotel which was great. Our bed was set up after back from the dinner buffet. We used the private onsen which is worth the value. You have to take a taxi from the kinugawaonsen station to the hotel.(google map shows 15min walk. Make sure you dont trust that). They provided free shuttles bus to the train station in the morning. The view from the room is excellent. We will definitely come back

Wonderful stay for a very reasonable price
My daughter and I love onsens but we were very pleasantly surprised to find ourselves in an upgraded room that was spacious and had a peaceful view. The baths were clean, spacious and uncrowded. We especially liked the outdoor pool with it's tranquil views. We opted for the breakfast and dinner plan and were glad we did as we could just pop down in our yukata, We enjoyed the variety and quality of the buffet style fare. The hotel also offers good and very reasonably priced massages.

The views from our room was awesome. The staff were really nice and the room looked clean. The BAD was the room really stank. Like really really stank. Not sure if we were given a smoking room. I tried to ask and either the staff person didnt understand or it was truly a smoking room but i wasnt given the option to move. The stinch evetnually made our throats hurt so we had to leave the balcony doors and windows open. The dinner was expensive and kind of blah but there were few other options. Our room have virtually no wifi connection. The cafe with a foot bath was nice, the little souvenir shope cute and the suspension bridge fun. Theres really not much in the immediate area. We walked to tubo square wolrd which was very worth it. We stayed gere planning to go to edo wonderlabd but it ended up raining hard all day. All in all i wouldnt stay in this hotel again. Everyone else there was 65-70 and it was probably good for that age range. I guess it ciudk ve a romantic getaway place assuming they have unstinky rooms.

We reserved a Japanese-style room and this hotel surpasses all our expectations: clean and spacious sleeping and sitting rooms, comfortable amenities, friendly staff, great Onsen experience, and great local food (we had their buffet breakfast and dinner). Hotel is only 15-20 minute walk from Kinugawa Onsen Station it it offers a nice shuttle bus to get there. Right next to hotel is the Kinutateiwaotsuri Bridge, a suspension bridge with great views.
