Isshinkan

Fantastic hotel and staff. The room was very comfortable and the food was amazing!

Loved the meals and friendly service.

Nice quiet little hotel in Nikko. River view is nice and the breakfast was good.

We signed up for the shabu-shabu dinner course, and it did not disappoint—it was one of the best meals I've had at a hotel in Japan, in terms of quality, variety and amount. (None of us ate much breakfast the next morning.) The hotel building is a bit aged, but very nice inside and well-maintained. The staff was helpful, and the young woman who served us at dinner was very professional (each group had their own server). 3 mins. walk from the hotel was a stairway down to the adjacent river, as good a nature get-away as you're likely to ask for. It took us about 30 mins. by car to get to the Toshogun area, but we preferred staying out of the main tourist area.

Excellent view of the mountain and river. The outdoor bath was really nice.

Isshinkan offers a great Japanese onsen experience. The hotel is a very short taxi ride or bus ride from Kinugawa-onsen station (making it quite easy to get around), and it has a very comfortable and family-run feel, even though it's a good size place. The staff are very friendly and helpful. We managed fine without being able to speak Japanese. The food (the set dinners and breakfasts, if you opt for them) are very delicious and copious, with many local and seasonal specialties. There were a lot of onsen bathing options, which we thoroughly used and enjoyed. They also offer good massage, karaoke (if you're inclined) and comfortable futon beds. It was very relaxing and excellent for our family of four -- very family friendly.

Nice onsen hotel located 15-20min walk to kinugawa station. Easy to take bus 5 from station (pay 190yen and not covered by nikko pass) and will reach hotel in 7min. Nice ornaments and decorations around the hotel. Breakfast is nice and enjoy the comfort of the function rooms. Onsen/bath is great in this hotel with good amenities. Would visit again for the onsen!

One of the typical Onsen (hot-spring) Hotel with my non-Japanese partner to have his first time Onsen experience. It was all in all wonderful and we both had a fun stay including the yummy dinner & breakfast. Totally recommend to hire your private bathing slot for 50min if you’re couple or family staying together. The local sakes were quite tasty and the dinner & breakfast using some of local ingredients. Better be hungry as the amount of food are more than enough! There’s a heated swimming pool as well as normal combination onsen spas with good water. I used the box spa and it was quite funny but also a very nice new experience. After having Onsen time, my skin and hair were perfectly soft and glowing. The hotel offers a short shuttle ride from Kinugawa-Onsen station and probably better use this service as it would be a good 20min walk to get there. The hotel staff members were all kind with good cares. Female guests could choose one of their colourful yukata (a kimono-style PJs) and they’re all very pretty. The only down side at this hotel was that everything was a bit dated. They were all clean but some decors you don’t really wanna see in a bright daylight, to be honest. We stayed from Sunday to Monday and it was very quiet. Partly because it was an alarming typhoon weekend, maybe. It was nice because not too many tourists were staying.

Pro:Hot spring area were pretty nice and clean. Con : I choosed none smoking room but the room smells, air condition in my room were poor and weak.

The hotel has nice view of the mountains, river and snow. The hotel is well decorated with handicraft and room the traditional japanese style with onsen. The staff are very friendly and helpful esp 崔新荣 who can speak japanese, english and chinese. Meals have to make your request and the meals are delicious traditional japanese set meals.

Great hospitality provided by the staff. Very ideal for foreigners like us to sample Japanese culture. Our family of 3 adults spent 2 nights & enjoyed it very much.

とにかく静か。落ち着いていて、設備は古いが綺麗にメンテナンス出来ていて、子供が小さい時行った時と同じサービスが受けられた。（自分は６０代になります）食事も半個室（暖簾で分けられている）で落ち着いて食べられる。 食事内容は豪華とは言えないが、体に優しくとても美味しかった。スタッフの接客はお客様の身になってくれているのが良くわかる。

フロントがたんせ外国人のようで、誠意がこちらに伝わりにくく、半分無視されてる感がある。せっかくなのでもう少し教育された方が良いと思う。 食事は大満足。栃木牛を使ったトマト鍋は美味しかった。

年季を感じる建物ですが、清掃等は行き届いていていました。 またご飯が二食ともとても美味しかったです。種類豊富で、どれもおいしく、お腹が満たされました。 温泉もとても気持ちよかったです。

家族旅行で利用せていただきました。お風呂は広めの浴場でサウナもあり。箱風呂は初めての体験で、ゆっくりと満喫できました。お食事は夕・朝ともとても豪華で一つ一つがしっかり美味しかったです。 お部屋でものんびり過ごせましたが、足音等が少し聞こえるかな。 総合的に満足できるお宿だと思います。 1泊２日でしたが、大変お世話になりました。

夕食・朝食は良かったです。

久しぶりの温泉で楽しみにしていましたが、お風呂の説明が十分でなく露天に入り損ねました。そこが残念です。 この宿には露天の温泉があります！ 水着を着てはいるスパの他に、4か所温泉があり、日替わりで男女入れ替え制です。その説明がなく、気づいた時には翌日で、露天は男性用になってしまいました。 建物は年期が入っているいますが、落ち着いた雰囲気です。お食事はどれも良いお出汁の味がして、噂通り美味しかったです。量もやや多めですが、満足しました。 配膳をしてくれるタイ人の女性もきれいで、感じが良かったです。

建物は少し古くなっているが綺麗に維持されていたので気にならなかったです。浴室は快適で、温水プールがあり楽しめました。ヴァラエティに富んだ料理も美味しかったです。

料理一つ一つおいしかったです。

食事は隣と距離もありとても静かに頂けました。量も十分でかなりお腹が苦しくなりました笑。スタッフの方もとても感じが良かったです。 お風呂はぬるめや熱めがあり、またたち湯、寝湯、箱風呂など色々なお風呂があり本当に楽しめました。
