"We loved our stay at this little cottage in Nikko. The hostess was so amazing to work with both before we arrived with advice on car rentals and once we got there with restaurants and things to do. She was even so kind as to help us book a reservation later on our trip that we couldn’t do on line. The fresh fruit for breakfast was very tasty and the home was on a quiet street and an easy walk to food and not too far to the main shrine area. We would be very happy staying there again."

Top Japan Hotel Reviews

THE KNOT TOKYO Shinjuku

10/10 Excellent

"Very accommodating staff to English tourists. Breakfast at the restaurant was fantastic. Location was central for all our daily outings"

Candeo Hotels Osaka The Tower

10/10 Excellent

"Stunning hotel that's close to local transport for ease of getting to all the main attractions. We had a room on the 30th floor with the most amazing views - also had executive bar access for drinks and nibbles from 4.30-9.30pm. Staff friendly and helpful. Rooms spotless and well-equipped."

APA Hotel & Resort Ryogoku Ekimae Tower

8/10 Good

"Room was fine, especially good for solo traveling. Public bath was okay, not as clean as other places but probably due to foreigners who don't know how to behave. For example, some showers people left their bowl full of their dirty water, instead of flipping the bowl back upside down and cleaning their station."
