For couples, groups of friends and solo travelers to Nikko - I can’t recommend this place enough. The host was so kind, funny and warm. The facilities were sparkling clean (with very cute cats everywhere), it was walking distance to everything. Next time I’m north of Tokyo I will definitely visit again.

We booked the japanese house (2 bedrooms, 1 living room, 1 kitchen, 2 toilets & 2 shower rooms). The house is so clean & the owner is so friendly. If you are traveling with family, you should book this guest house. The owner also sent us to the station at the end of our stay. We really enjoyed our 3-night stay here.

Perfect. Stay Nikko has everything you need, is very quiet and well located. The hosts go out of their way to make you welcome and informed about the area. Having 3 bed mats stacked up makes it comfortable to sleep. We would definitely stay here again.

Absolutely love it here! Made a last minute booking due to a change in our trip itinerary, the house was extremely clean and Ken(host) was one of the most welcoming and helpful people I’ve met here to far! He came prepared with a bus schedule, and map he hand labeled with the best places to see, and eat as well as what times they’d be open. The view is also beautiful! 11/10!
