Great place with deep spiritual and cultural roots. A bit of a hidden gem - clean and modern accommodation combined with 600 years of Samurai history. Temple Priest and Kendo master, Tendou Akitsuki is a great host! Good base to explore Gunma and the alps from.

Enjoyed two nights at Hatago Nagomi, easily accessible via bus from Nikko's train stations. The ryokan has beautiful views of Lake Chuzenji. The staff were friendly and attentive, spoke excellent English, and went out of their way to take care of our group. Highly recommend the kaiseki dinner option.
