Old traditional house. A charming house, beautiful and in a very quiet area. Fresh air and pure water. Hiro, the host, and his assistant Marie (a small gentle dog) are very kind. Hiro gave us some nice tips and restaurant recommendations. We felt right at home.

We stayed there during our roadtrip through Japan and eventhough the house looked bit in a state from the outside, inside it is fully renovated and comfy with many electrical gadgets (i like the move operated garbage bin, hehe). We could park right in front of the house. It's a good starting point for exploring Nikko National Park. Also the owner is super helpful and I coudl feel he really feels invested in providing super care. Would love to return one day for sure!

The house owner Ms Arai is very attentive and generous. It is very heartwarming. Right after we arrived, she offered to drive us to Toshogu Temple so we would not miss out the opening hours. When the shops and restaurants of Nikko almost all closed after 6pm, she drove us around town to look for restaurants that were still opened. She offered us free homemade breakfast on both days of our stay. One of the days we had to leave very early in the morning but she still served us breakfast and drove us to the station 6am in the morning. She also offered useful advice on our stay in Nikko. We are very grateful for her help 💖💖💖

Mariko's kindness is absolutely outstanding, even for Japanese standards. She is one of the best, if not the best host we have ever had the luck to meet. She even prepared a delicious breakfast for us and drove us to the train station because we were in a bit of a hurry. The lodging is simple yet lovely, cozy, in a great location and super clean. So top choice, you won't regret it!

Super kind host, it seems that she absolutely loves what she is doing. Very helpful, gave us a lot of information so we could easily navigate the area in no time, even drove us to town to start exploring. She made us tasty breakfast free of charge, asked what we like and it was no problem that we are vegetarian. Look up ikkigai – that's what you experience there in action.

The hosts are both amazing!! Very friendly and eager to help us with everything we needed. We had not chosen to have diner there (bad decision because I believe it must have been amazing) and they suggested to make a reservation for us at an excellent restaurant nearby. The breakfast was served in a very cosy and homey feeling living room and it was a classical western style with eggs, bagels etc which was exceptional! I have nothing but wonderful words to say about this experience. Totally recommended! I would like to revisit and spend more time there. Thank you for everything

    Great hosts who went out of their way to make our stay very comfortable. Spotless house, quiet location, beautiful touches to make it feel homely, an awesome bath that stays hot and fills automatically- the best bath I have ever had! Hosts had information including timetables for buses, shows at edo wonderland at their finger tips. Walking distance - 5mins to bus stop and only 10mins tops to train station. Host also took us to the train station in their private car - very friendly, polite and helpful. Loved our stay and wish we stayed longer.
