Annex Turtle Hotori-An

Charming place closest to the many buddhas, and it’s walking distance to the Toshogu complex. It’s clean and comfortable. There are 3 restaurants, several cafes, and a Lawsons nearby. The onsen was nice. We took a bus from the Tobu Nikko station to go to the hotel. After you leave the bus, it’s a ~10 minute walk. The tourist info center at the station can tell you which bus to take (2A, 2B, or 2C) and where to get off (stop 8 - Yasukawacho). The only problem was that it ran out of water some point in the morning (soon after 8 am), which was annoying for those who opted to exercise and couldn’t take a shower. We later saw the water truck come around noon. But we still enjoyed our stay there!

Very comfortable stay on the futon - it was lovely to hear the waterfalls from our room. Location was lovely - bit of a walk from the main town of Nikko, but it was fine for us! The staff were charming and so helpful.

The best partnof this hotel is the onsen, very easy to use the private facility. The hotel is located quite a distance from the train station so it could be difficult to access depending on weather. However it was close to Toshogu shrine and the Kanmangafuchi Abyss was right next door. Highly recommend if you like relaxing in onsen waters.

Great location, in a walking distance to the main sightseeing spots in Nikko (as well as a useful convenience store), yet tucked away in a quiet area. Nice and relaxed atmosphere. Super friendly staff. Highly recommended.

Very pleasant place to stay while in Nikko. Walking dostance to the UNESCO site. Pleasant staff. Quaint Japanese-style room...
