Source name: Nikko Wa no DaisenpH value: 9.6Spring quality: Alkaline simple hot springDay use on weekdays.Probably the closest facility for day trips from Nikko Toshogu Shrine.It costs 1,000 yen, which also includes a towel, so I think it's reasonable considering the location and accommodations.The view from the large bath is good. Most of the hot springs in this area are brought in from a facility called Yashio-no-Yu, which is located at the end of Kanmangafuchi and is called ``Nikko Wa no Daisen'', so the quality of the hot water is pretty average.There are two bathtubs, one in the center and one in the back. There is no indoor bath, only an outdoor bath, so it feels nice and open.I think people who are tired of walking around sightseeing should come here.

Location is probably the best thing about this hotel. Significantly overpriced for what is pretty old and tired accommodation. Onsen was fine and room was larger enough with everything you needed. Dinner, while good was really overpriced compared to those at other places we stayed during an extended trip cycling Japan from top to bottom.

I was lucky enough to be able to stay at this ryokan during the holidays, and it was convenient for transportation as it was just a short trip from Asakusa, Sky Tree, and Kitasenju Station.The shuttle bus also came across the street from the station, which was very helpful.The best part was that the food was very delicious.Customers are happy to hear that we have a skilled chef!(Information) It is easiest to make a reservation from the homepage.I will be indebted to you again!

It's conveniently located near Shinbashi and Rinnoji if you don't want to go to Chuzenji.Although it has been renovated, the facility looked old in some places, but it gave the impression that it was kept in good condition.Dinner and breakfast were fixed menus, but there was a lot to enjoy. However, at dinner time, the only bespoke menu was alcohol-related (I was happy to see that there was surprisingly a lot of Japanese sake), which made me wish there was a single dish.The employees were also impressed by the hospitality that was conveyed to them.
