Kindest people !!The owners are lovely, definitely made our stay memorable.We asked for few different favors and they were happy to help.The owner also gave us a few lifts to Nikko station and to Kirifuri waterfalls which was very convenient for us.The hostel itself is old but nice and cozy.There is no option to cook but a buffet in a reasonable price is offered and great food.Also you can buy some snacks and beers and wine if you like.Location is about 15-20 minutes from Nikko station, depending on your pace. A bit uphill to the hostel from the station but nothing serious.The price is very much affordable and I found the value for money very good.Highly recommended!! Enjoy 😄

Somewhat old interior and a bit off of the main area, but still nice location and good rooms at low prices. I enjoyed my stay.

Had a lovely time staying three nights here. Beds were comfy and the hosts were so nice. It was the perfect spot to stay for a great few days hiking in beautiful Nikko. It’s a little out of the way - around a 15 minute walk from the station - but the walk was so nice that it didn’t make a difference (plus the fact that they run a shuttle to and from the station). Would highly recommend for anyone looking for a homely and good value base for exploring the incredible park.

The owner's uncle is very kind. The accommodation is far from the community. But Uncle will pick you up from the train station. The rooms are clean.If you want tranquility suitable for relaxation, this is a good choice.

It's very good for the price. However, since I was traveling by bike, there was no problem, but it seems difficult to access for runners...? The most inconvenient thing was that there was only one shower room, so I had to take a shower after 2 hours... Other than that, everything was good. I definitely intend to visit again.

Had a lovely time staying 1 night here. Be aware the hostel is located around 20min walk from the train station, which I absolutely loved because it was surrounded by beautiful forest, but if you are not a big walker or have a lot of luggage it might be a bit far. I also took a taxi from the train station and it cost 700 yen. The lady who ran it was super lovely and the place was very clean. There is an awesome shower room as well with a stone tub which I never used but it looked cool. I stayed in the mixed dorm and had a very positive experience, there are lockers to lock up your personal items but everyone I met was super nice and respectful. I chose it for the price and location and was pleasantly surprised :).

The lodge is located in the middle of the forest so very quiet but located not far from the center and next to the Toshogu temple. I slept in the mixed dormitory which still allows for a little privacy thanks to the curtains on each bed. Big positive point for the shared bathroom which overlooks the forest, I love it :) The host is welcoming and helpful and even gave me advice thanks to which I was able to save time and attend a parade ! I recommend this place because in terms of quality and price it is the best!

In regards to the premises of Nikko Park Lodge Mountainside, it was not of any sound standard at all given the cost they fraudulently charged. …

I loved this place. It felt so homie and the staff was very accommodating. We walked there from the station and I'm so happy we did, with the scenery alone - we even saw some deers along the walk! The beds were comfy and the bath offered was a great start of the day.

An inexpensive room that helps if you have to stay a day in Nikkō.Access on foot from the station takes around 30 minutes and is uphill. The panorama is not great, but we are high up near a forest. The style resembles an American inn.The bedding is of good quality, we sleep well, but the shower has an old temperature management system, which is a shame.I had dinner at the restaurant, the dish was cold and not really good, but it remains the simplest solution, no restaurants within 30 minutes.Useful if you want simplicity at a reasonable price.
