Top Lake Ikari Hotel Reviews

Hotel Sunshine Kinugawa

10/10 Excellent

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

LiVEMAX RESORT KAWAJI

10/10 Excellent

"Très bel hôtel, chambre avec bain : wow!"

Kaederesort Kinugawaonsen

10/10 Excellent

"A wonderful experience. They made our first visit to the area a wonderful experience. The large onsen was just what our group needed after hiking and walking all day in Nikko. We all slept amazing. Quiet, clean and excellent service from the staff. Highly recommended."

Hotel Ootaki

10/10 Excellent

"I stayed only for one night but the hotel was excellent, staff were helpful, spacious Japanese style room. A bit of walk from the Kinugawa Onsen Station but it is a nice walk. I will stay again if I am in the area again."

Kinugawa Royal Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"見た目より中は思ったほど古い感じはなく、部屋からの景色も癒されました。少し部屋の風呂が下水臭かったのと蛇口の赤い方が温水になるのにとても時間がかかったのが残念です。宿が大きいからでしょうが、朝食・夕食ともに二部制だったのですが、30分単位で入れをずらすなどで混雑緩和してくれるとうれしいです。またぜひゆっくりしに行きたいです。"

Hoshino Resorts KAI Kinugawa

10/10 Excellent

"The room was beautiful and the private onsen is great for those who have tattoos that cannot be covered up. The rooms were spacious and the welcome snacks were delicious."

Kinugawa Onsen Nikko Kinugawa Hotel Mikazuki

10/10 Excellent

"Spa and pools were premium. Staff is laways friendly and helpful. We stayed on the Ninth floor Club9 with an osen in the room. Most excellent!"

Oyado Yunotoki

10/10 Excellent

"This ryokan was one of the absolute highlights of our Japan trip. As a couple travelling with two young adult kids, it was the perfect place for all of us to slow down and recharge after Tokyo. The biggest highlight was the four private onsens — no reservations needed, yet there was always at least one (often even more) available. It made everything feel so relaxed and effortless. The ryokan itself is small, intimate, and incredibly well thought out, with beautiful attention to detail and high-quality touches like POLA amenities. If you want to experience a true traditional ryokan, this is it. There were hardly any foreigners, and the staff spoke very little English — but somehow we managed just fine, which made it feel even more authentic. The secluded setting adds to that peaceful, escape-from-it-all vibe. The food deserves a special mention — we stayed for two nights and every breakfast and dinner was completely different and absolutely exquisite. It really elevated the whole experience. We were initially concerned about having no bathroom in the room, but it turned out to be the best thing — it gave us more reason to keep going back to the onsen. Our kids loved it so much they’ve already made us promise to return on our next Japan trip. Highly recommend. ✨"

Shionoyu Onsen Rengetsu

10/10 Excellent

"Attentive staff, good dinner and breakfast. Clean and spacious room. "
