Rakuten STAY Motel Nikko Kinugawa

1. The location is a bit of a walk from the station, and there's a small supermarket nearby that only accepts cash. I don't recommend buying their close-to-expiry items; I once got some stale meat. Non-expiring products, however, seem fresh enough. On the way from the station to the accommodation, you'll pass a 7-Eleven, so you can grab everything you need there before heading to your stay. 2. Remember to pre-fill your information the day before check-in. Our self-check-in process was smooth, but it seemed the guests next door had an issue with their room door code. However, there are facilities on-site to contact customer service. 3. The room's amenities are excellent and complete, the space is large, and the hot spring is comfortable. Overall, the value for money is outstanding.

The room was spacious and comfortable. It's conveniently located near a local train station, making it easy to get to the temples in Nikko city.

Booked a room with a garage, so we could drive right in, which made loading and unloading luggage super convenient. The ground floor has a tatami room, and upstairs there's a twin room and a hot spring bath big enough for three people.

The hot spring is fantastic! The space is incredibly spacious!

This accommodation is great! However, you have to take a local train from Nikko Station and then walk about 6-7 minutes to get here. I wouldn't recommend it if you're traveling alone because the town is very quiet. It's better to come with friends or family. If you rent a car, it would be perfect as the hotel provides parking. The room itself is excellent, with a washing machine, refrigerator, microwave, rice cooker, and kettle. It even has a private onsen bath, which is a huge plus! If I visit Nikko again, I will definitely stay here. It's truly wonderful.
