Hiro-san is a fantastic host. Super welcoming, speaks great English (which helped us a lot, since my Japanese is...barely functional), has a great sense of humor and is incredibly helpful and knowledgeable - so ask him for recommendations on anything! The place has everything you need, and more - even a mini-onsen that Hiro-san will prepare if you ask for it! If you end up sharing the place with another group your experience could vary, but for us (5 people) everything worked out perfectly. Thank you again to Hiro-san!

Sato-san’s place is simple, but very homey and filled with all of the amenities and comforts that you need to make an easy stay. The trip into Nikko station is very quick, and Imaichi has lots of small town charms to offer.

Great place if you want to stay in a traditional house but with modern facilities. We had everything we needed on site. The room was big as it was composed of 2 rooms that could be separated with panels to have a sleeping room and living room. The location is close to the station, close to a supermarket, etc. The host was so kind, and so helpful. At arrival she gave us some maps, pointed interesting spots and even drove us to the station to show us the bus stop for Nikko Wonderland for the next morning. We were offered an amazing breakfast, and also little gift when we left. 本当ありがとうございます！

Our vacation in Japan was filled with nice people but the owner of this house was the nicest and friendliest in the whole country. We really felt so welcome and everything was made available to us to make our stay wonderful. We have great memories of being in Nikko but staying in this home was the best decision we made and we hope you stay here too.

It was really nice getting to chat with the owners when we got there. They were really welcoming and it was kind of like staying with family. When I got sick, I was given medicine and made sure I felt alright. They helped us find food and recommended a great place that was nearby and gave us extra snacks when we left. The art throughout the building is beautiful and if you are interested the owners will talk with you about what is there. The baths were a nice temperature and we never felt rushed.

Yoshi and his wife are wonderful hosts. During our stay, we received plenty of advice and help to explore the area and make the most of the short time we had in Nikko. The accommodation is beautiful, comfortable, very well located, and super clean. Next time we visit, we’ll spend more time in the area and will definitely stay here again.

We had a wonderful stay here. The owner lives downstairs but he keeps away unless you’re checking in or out. Upon arrival he greeted us with orange juice, a map of the area and recommendations. Daily amenity refills provided, rooms cleaned. Rooms comprised of a twin and tatami/futon room (all upstairs). A wonderful, quiet area very close to all of the action in the World Heritage Area. By booking this property your money goes directly to locals instead of corporations. Experience the real Japan.

Everything was amazing! Lovely house and the owner was the sweetest person ever. I thought the place was a bit far away from the main area of Nikko but we loved a good hike through the forest and finish at the temples and shrines. And the owner offered us a ride to the station when we were leaving. Awesome place.
