Perfect place in Nikko.

I had a brilliant time at this guesthouse. The owners were so lovely, kind and helpful. The breakfast was varied and wholesome and plenty of it. The room, although dated, was large and I slept really well. It had everything you needed. It is located close to all the sights of Nikko and a nearby Onsen. A bus ride takes you easily to the lake. I wish I could have stayed longer and really recommend you staying here. The hosts are amazing.

I had a very nice stay at Gasthof Ami. It's an older house that has been converted into guestrooms, with a common dining area, and both private and semi-public baths (one indoor, one outside). It is dated, but very clean/well maintained, and the service is great. It's a little beyond the center of town, so not so convenient to access without a car; however, there is a bus stop about 5 min. walk away, so that's how I got around while visiting Nikko. If I ever make it back that way I will definitely book again.

Mr. Ban runs a great guesthouse. If you're not vegetarian, get full board. It's a bit hard to find. Directions: Take bus from stop 1A at Nikko Train Station. Get off at stop 13. Walk up hill past Saitoh Dental Clinic. Walk to end of high stone wall on right. Continue past grassy area on right. A 2nd stone wall begins. Take right at first opening and bear right. Gasthof Ami is the big house at the far end.

Fantastic stay! Highly recommend. This guesthouse is amazing value for what its offers. The building itself is a bit older, so the interior is dated and aged. However, the rooms are very spacious, with multiple bathrooms and comfortable beds. There is both an indoor and outdoor bath area. The outdoor bath house is intimate and private, perfect for couples looking to enjoy a soak together. The owner that runs the guesthouse is super accommodating and an overall fantastic host. He speaks very limited English, but his hospitality transcends any language barrier.

L'accueille est bien aimable, dans un environnement calme, pourtant pas loin des sites touristiques. Le petit déjeuné est complet.

Nice cottage with private Onsen. Good value.

Small boutique pension/lodging house with 4 rooms in the main building and 3 cottages. We are 3 couples so booked the 3 cottages that had private Onsen in the rooms. English countryside style cottages complete with poster beds, stained glass windows, floral curtains and sofa. Decor a little dated but overall it is clean and neat. Mattresses in 2 rooms on the soft side so request for hard mattress provided in one of the room. Kettle and fridge in each room. Owner and wife were very friendly and try their best to communicate with us in English explaining the food that were served. We had 1/2 board and the breakfast and the 4 course Japanese/French fusion dinner were very good on both nights. Coffee and a variety of tea options were available for after dinner drinks. The bread rolls were freshly baked and additional servings were allowed. The lodging is about 5 mins walk from the main road and about 10-15 mins walk to the many cafes and mini marts but we drove so not sure how far it was from the railway station.

うぐいすが鳴いていました。

行く前に、以前お泊りになった人達の口コミを見ていきましたが、賛否両論どちらもその通りだと思います。が、 値段との比較で考えるといいお宿と言えると思います。 かなり年季のはいったお宿で？って思うところも見受けられましたが、親戚の家に近いと思えばそんなもんです。 鳥の声が近くて鶯もすごくきれいに鳴いていました。

コテージに宿泊したが、薄暗く化粧がしにくいし、本も読めない。コンセントが見当たらなく、探したらチェストの下に延長コードを見つけただけだった。 フルコースディナーがウリだったが、味はいまいち。ウリになるほどではなく、非常に残念。特に牛フィレステーキは火が入りすぎていて、パサパサ過ぎた。白米が付くのも謎。 唯一部屋の露天風呂は気持ちが良かった。

食事が美味しい！

久しぶりのペンション滞在はアットホームな雰囲気で、楽しかったです！ 早めの日光到着だったのですが、お荷物を預かって頂いたり、オーナーさんにも大変親切にしていただきました。夕食・朝食付きプランを利用、ボリューミーでお皿の上のプレゼンテーションも素敵で、美味しく頂きました。お風呂は超軟水の貸切露天風呂でゆっくり浸かり、朝早く東照宮から憾満が淵へランニングに出かけて帰って来た後も、朝食前に汗を流せて気持ちよかったです。コスパが素晴らしいです。
