Top Rinno-ji 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."

Hotel Sunshine Kinugawa

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful traditional hotel, the property is a little dated but overall still beautiful and clean, would stay again!"

Koduchi no Yado Tsurukamedaikichi

10/10 Excellent

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

Rakuten STAY Nikko Hoden

10/10 Excellent

"Our room was very spacious and kitchen was very well equipped. Loved our own "private onsen" in the room, we've used it every day. Only minor issue and delay in the check-in process once we were in the room as it was not able to confirm our identity and it was calling without any answer but it did work out in the end."

Joshuya Ryokan

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent food, convenient location, and attentive staff; we thoroughly enjoyed our 3-night stay at this century-old inn! We chose Joshuya for an authentic ryokan experience. Stay here for a nostalgic Showa-era atmosphere, home-style Japanese meals shared with guests, excellent public hot spring, and a location within walking distance of major historical sites and Tobu Nikko Station. If you want conventional beds, private bathrooms, or the flexibility to come and go whenever you please, look elsewhere. A dedicated fifth-generation owner runs this small operation, preparing meals daily. The inn is a time capsule showing its age, but our living spaces, futons, towels, and yukata were very clean. Amenities include AC, a fridge, Wi-Fi, and toiletries. You only need a change of clothes! All six meals were fantastic, and the low-mineral hot spring left our skin remarkably smooth! While Joshuya offers an authentic immersion into Japanese hospitality, travelers should note that this property leans heavily into a rustic, historic style rather than modern convenience. Guests should embrace aging facilities, such as shared external washrooms, natural ventilation in common areas, and vintage architecture, along with customs like mandatory shoe removal at the entryway, meal schedules, and curfew hours. Overall, we were deeply impressed by their attentiveness. Warmth and tradition outshine luxury here! We hope this historic inn continues to thrive and look forward to returning!"

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."

Fairfield by Marriott Tochigi Nikko

10/10 Excellent

"This is a terrific basic hotel with very clean and stylish Western-style rooms (albeit with the small Japanese beds) and public spaces at reasonable rates. Would definitely stay here again. It is a bit out of the way from central Nikko (up a hill from the train stations, and a bit too far on rural roads to be truly walkable), but cabs are cheap and the hotel runs a free shuttle to the stations in the morning and late afternoon. Also there is no restaurant on-site. However, there’s free tea/coffee/miso soup in the lobby, basic food items for sale at the front desk, and a good breakfast truck (with Western breakfast items and coffee) comes by from 7-10 am."

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."
