Nikk Ststion Hotel Classic is conveniently located a 3 minute walk from Tobu Nikko station and a 2 minute walk from Nikko station. A the name suggests this is a classic hotel so stays here should not come with expectations of grandeur. The hotel is cosy, nonetheless, the service staff polite and helpful and the facilities such as the onsen a the restaurant of good quality. Was please with the outdoor onsen as that allowed fkr a longer soak and a different experience to soaking indoors.
The breakfast was good and unnoticed rhe restaurant lunch and inner menu was very enticing, though we didn’t get to try it out. Saw them plating the food though and it looked very good.
I noticed the hotel has placeholders for a number of rules, perhaps due to past guest behaviour or perhaps otherwise. I did find the many “no” signs a throwback to how it is where I live and subtly a little disquieting
Overall though, we were happy with our one day stay and will be sure to come back to stay here when we next visit Nikko.
Aside: do your homework before visiting Nikko as reservations are needed when visiting sites of interest and knowledge of bus schedules will be very helpful especially if you visit during the peak season where there are many local visitors too due to the religious element.
