The meals( halfboard) were very fancy and very Japanese, which was fun for us as a family. Our Japanese-style room with tatami mats, a living area, balcony overlooking the river was comfortable and relaxing. The staff was super friendly and helpful. We loved our waiter, Tiger or Tiga, most of all. It was about 45 minutes drive to the main shrine in Nikko, and we found a nice hike in a canyon near our inn the second day. Three nights felt like the right amount of time to stay before moving on. ##### Katherine Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Amy 20 Oct 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This place is amazing! The view from my room was why I initially chose this ryokan, and the outside onsen is a must. The foot bath was a lovely surprise as it gives you a breathtaking view of the running stream and mountains in the distance. The half board was the best I’ve ever had—such thoughtful flavors (I especially liked the pickles)! Plus, the people are so nice here! (I was happy to hear there was a shuttle offered to go back to the Kawaji Yumoto train station though I did walk about 11 minutes going.) I would definitely come back to this ryokan if I’m ever in the Nikko area again. Thank you so much! Some things to note: there are some medium sized flying bugs that will glue themselves to the sliding door. Be careful opening/closing the door if you don’t want them to get in. (I hate bugs but I reminded myself that I am in nature and visiting their territory. ;p) Also, my intended train going back to Tokyo from Kawaji Yumoto was fully booked, so the station agent explained that I had to transfer a few times to get back to Tokyo. A minor inconvenience since I arrived 40 minutes later than my intended time. Not a lot of trains come through though, so you might want to keep this in mind when booking your stay. ##### Amy Stayed 1 night in Oct 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### John 29 Apr 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great and memorable stay! ##### John Stayed 1 night in Apr 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Catherine 23 May 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Absolutely stunning hotel with very friendly staff and lovely onsen! ##### Catherine Stayed 1 night in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### CHI FAI THOMSON 10 Jan 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Fantastic environment and hospitality, and the foods are amazing! ##### CHI FAI THOMSON ### 8/10 Good #### Bee Choo Christina 4 Dec 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Nice onsen hotel Very nice onsen hotel.

Definitely get the half board option, great food with a good variety each day, and there aren't many restaurants nearby. Amenities were kinda old but super clean. ##### Ruoran Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Ann 15 Apr 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Disliked: Amenities Beautifully quiet isolated resort. Limited train service to the area and no taxis. Food service and onsen were excellent, after they initially could not find our reservation. ##### Ann Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Younsoo 5 Jan 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great Onsen Ryokan! I meant to book Nikko but ended up booking here by mistake but I feel like I found another great Onsen Ryokan! Transportation was bit inconvenient and communication about the shuttle bus to the station was amiss but overall, this place was a great place to get away and to rest and enjoy the natural springs and the nature. ##### Younsoo ### 10/10 Excellent #### Simone 28 Jan 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Amazing experience - food, onsen and experiences (such as paper making)! Staff is incredibly friendly and helpful. The place is really stunning, especially at night where the atmosphere is just incredible. In particular, bathing in their open air onsen while snowing was just a dream. We loved every second! A suggestion to travellers from Tokyo: the most convenient way to get there (despite what google maps says) is the Tobu line service from Asakusa station to Kinagawaonsen, changing with a local service to Kawajii-Yumoto (the hotel will pick you up at the station). It may be slightly longer than other options but it’s very comfortable and easy. ##### Simone Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Terry 2 Dec 2023 It's our fault for booking a non-refundable hotel but given our cat got a blood clot and required daily supervision, we had to cancel our trip. Hoshino Resorts KAI Kawaji, with almost a month in advance, did not care about our situation and wouldn't even give us a voucher to reschedule and happily pocketed our $700\. Again, it is our fault, but we will not do business with non-refundable hotels again. Lesson learned. ##### Terry Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Wing Yee 11 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort 很好 ##### Wing Yee Stayed 1 night in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Chi Wai 21 Mar 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities 溫泉非常好，環境十分舒適，員工服務態度非常好 ##### Chi Wai Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### ?? 20 Oct 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities 飯店設施和服務人員素質都非常好，但是交通真的不便利。 ##### ??
