Homestays in Tochigi Prefecture, Japan

The service was impeccable, with the young waiters always smiling. During my seven-day trip to Japan, this was the only place where I experienced the kind of Japanese service I've been seeing online. The room was spacious, and the food and hot springs were excellent. It was a pleasant surprise to find such a hot spring inn in a secluded area like Kawaji Yumoto. The only downside was that the furniture was a bit dated. The filter on the kettle's outlet was rusty and yellowed. I hope it's replaced soon, as it's not a very expensive item.

The accommodation looked exactly the same as in the posted photos. The staff were very kind and supportive throughout our stay. We really enjoyed our time here, and we would love to stay again if we have the chance to visit Nikko in the future. Highly recommended!

Overall, we had a pleasant stay. The onsen was especially nice and very relaxing. Our whole family stayed over the New Year holiday, and we enjoyed the dinner buffet with its wide variety of options. Breakfast was decent as well. The only downside was that the hotel corridors were quite cold during the winter season, and we also experienced a minor issue with the room’s air conditioning, which made the room cold for a while. Despite this, we still had a nice overall experience.

Beautiful old hotel. The dinner was fabulous- so elegant and wonderfully delicious. The grounds are picturesque Best thing is the location. It is up a steep hill so walking up and down is a challenge for older knees. That being said once down the hill, it is a short walk to the famous Shinkyo Bridge and across the street from the bridge is the Toshogu Shrine complex.

This time, I used it with my family. The staff are very friendly and the family members are very satisfied with the response. Perhaps because of the location, the bugs are obvious, even in the open-air bath I am worried. In addition, I think the air conditioner in the room is a bit weak. All meals are in private rooms, so I feel relieved at this time! Especially the breakfast is delicious 🍚

When we arrived grandma missed our order. But it was dealt with quickly. We took this dad on the trip. We enjoyed 3 days and 2 nights. The old lady cooked a sumptuous breakfast and dinner every day. They were very delicious and I was very full after every meal. We were also very satisfied with the meal. The B&B faces the mountains and the sea. The scenery is beautiful. Great stay . I really like it. Thank you, grandma. Our family of 3 had a lot of fun

We used this as a simplified version of our honeymoon. We were able to relax in a calm atmosphere. We thought it was a little pricey since we were staying over a long weekend, but we were very satisfied with the quality of the hot spring water.

Excellent price-performance ratio hotel with the best logistics you can have in Kinugawa. The facilities with garden are fresh, service is top grade. As for onsen, it is separated, but it has only one bath, which is expected from tiny hotels. The only little nuisance you can encounter is the late night noise coming from opening doors. Overall the experience was outstanding, I will choose this place again.

This accommodation is great! However, you have to take a local train from Nikko Station and then walk about 6-7 minutes to get here. I wouldn't recommend it if you're traveling alone because the town is very quiet. It's better to come with friends or family. If you rent a car, it would be perfect as the hotel provides parking. The room itself is excellent, with a washing machine, refrigerator, microwave, rice cooker, and kettle. It even has a private onsen bath, which is a huge plus! If I visit Nikko again, I will definitely stay here. It's truly wonderful.

１ Night ２ It was a short solo trip for a day, but the room was large and the hot water was reasonably good, so it was a very satisfying hot spring hotel. Above all, I am very grateful to put it in the hot spring at any time except for some time zones.
