Honke Bankyu Hotel - Nikko

If you're searching for a memorable Japanese vacation experience, this traditional ryokan is a great choice. the beautiful location surrounded by breathtaking scenery and outdoor Onsen is a perfect place to unwind and relax. the authentic Japanese meals prepared by the hospitable staff and the art pieces inside the hotel will leave you mesmerized. the spacious and comfortable rooms with beautiful views from the window and deep cleaning bathroom utilities, make for a royal stay. Sadly, the location is a bit secluded from the mainstream city.

Wonderful and generous hospitality of the staff, the location is scenic and the accommodation enjoyable with an historic atmosphere. The food was exceptional. Again the staff were so helpful.

great hospitality and friendliness from the staff. the best kaiseki we had in taste ,presentation, and ambience of the restaurant.

I loved staying here! The hotel is located in a picturesque mountain setting with a stream running through it. The private hot baths were perfect for relaxing and enjoying the beautiful surroundings. The restaurant served delicious traditional Japanese food, cooked over charcoal in private rooms. The staff were friendly, making me feel welcomed and at home.

Nothing, all excellent.

My weekend in the charming ryokan was fantastic! the beautiful rope bridge over the river was one of the best aspects. I also loved the hot spring facilities, which were clean and beautiful. the breakfast with a view of the river was lovely. the serene and relaxing atmosphere left me feeling recharged. the staff were attentive and generous with their assistance.

The ryokan was located quite far from the main sightseeing places, which was one of the worst aspects. It took at least 45 minutes to an hour to get anywhere.

What an incredible escape! This beautiful hot spring ryokan exceeded our expectations. The traditional Japanese style of the room and the exquisite culinary experience were the best aspects of our stay. The location was also perfect, surrounded by beautiful mountains and tranquil forests. We particularly enjoyed the rental car option, which allowed us to explore the surrounding areas with ease. The hot springs were impeccable, soothing and well maintained. The friendly staff added an extra layer of comfort to our stay.

The trek from the lobby to our room, which felt a bit too long and strange. Although it was a really small inconvenience, stepping out into the cold winter air after taking a dip in the hot springs was not very appealing.

Beautiful ryokan, lovely setting, fabulous dinner, private open air bath, immaculate room, comfy beds.

Everything was spot on.
