We stayed just one night at Hiro's place and we had an amazing experience! The house is lovely in a very traditional Japanese style, and there's a small private onsen too! Hiro really made us feel welcome in his home, and greeted us with lots of kindness. The garden has a lovely pond and the little dog is so sweet! I really recommend Hiro place for an authentic and lovely experience in Japan. Hope we can come back again in the future. Thank you Hiro!

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!

I’m so happy that I booked this guesthouse😊. Everything was very clean, beautifully decorated in a japanese style and it even smelled good everywhere. Also the futons were amazing, my 3 nights at this guesthouse were probably the most comfortable ones I ever had!! But the best part about this house was Eimi, the host😚. She is such a great, open and funny person with such a kind heart and helped us a lot during our trip, wether it was recommending restaurants, booking trains or planning the next day in Nikko. Eimi made everything about this guesthouse feel so homy and full of love. When sitting together with the other guests and Eimi and cocking okonomiyaki on a rainy night or going on a cycling tour together it really felt like having a new family 🫶🏻. When I visit Japan again some day, I will definitely come back again ☺️☺️

    Great location, super friendly host/staff, comfy beds, clean and tidy public spaces, very quiet at night even though it’s next to the train station. Had a very relaxing stay there, thank you!

    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.

    The host and staff were great and super friendly. They gave us recommendations about places and restaurants. We had such a lovely stay at the guesthouse. Everything was clean and the guesthouse has only few rooms so it was quiet at nights. It took only 1-2 minutes to walk to Tobu Nikko station and many cafes and restaurants and a kombini near by. We highly recommend this accommodation for your stay in Nikko. Thank you :)

    Guest house was in a great location, really close to the train station and a family mart. The host was really friendly and helped us plan a hike with bus times and a guide he prepared himself. The toilets were modern and clean.

    Our time at Stay Nicco Guesthouse was very nice. The location at the river about 5-10min from the main street and the next bus stop was very convenient and quiet. The cabin was sooo kawaii with a lot of attention to detail as well as well equipped and clean. Our host took the time to explain the surroundings and attractions of the area along with giving us tips on where to spend our limited time. His wife even drove us to the train station. We regret not staying longer and would like to return :)

    Yoshi is a great and very kind host. He has loads of great tips about Nikko which were very helpful during our stay. The guesthouse is well organised and very clean. Cozy living room a d well supplied kitchen. Bikes are also available, which are great for moving around Nikko. All in all the best guest house we have had in Japan.

    Yoshi was a great host. Helped us to set up a great day to Senjogahara and beyond, good recommendations for meals, bus timetables etc. The place is very central but quiet. Enjoyed the photo, Yoshi is an expert, (not our usual thing). So happy.
