Nikkorisou Reviews

Had a great time. I will be back with friends to go to the izakaya you promised.

Very cheerful and kind owner. We had a Japanese Shabu Shabu for dinner with the owner. The place is clean and tidy and makes me really feel like home. Located 1 min walk from Shinkyo bus stop, great location.

I had a lovely time at Nikkorisou, the location was great, the hostel has lots of character and arty decorations and the couple that run it are so nice! Would highly recommend it :)

I really enjoyed my stay at Nikkorisou. The hostel was warm and clean with a great atmosphere. A home from home in Nikko. I thoroughly recommend it ｡◕ ‿ ◕｡

The best hostel I've visited anywhere! Great location next to the river, close to the world heritage sites, very clean, beautifully decorated, perfect size and the couple who run it are very friendly.

The only inconvenience was that the bathroom was downstairs while the dorms were upstairs and the heater in the room had a gas-like smell and was too warm (but then again it was quite cool during the night without heater). Location was really easy to find and perfectly located near to the Shrine etc. No Yukata and Towels provided, but Wifi worked great even in the rooms. Very friendly staff.

The couple who run this place are so lovely. It's a real pleasure to be here, especially after some of the less that homely casual hotels in Tokyo. Feels like staying in someone's house. The fire was lovely, and the rooms were pretty neat too. I would def. recommend. I'll stay here again if I'm ever in Nikko again.

We had a great stay at Nikkorisou. My two kids, 4 and 7, loved the bunk beds and say that the hostel was their favorite part of our Nikko visit. In fact, this was the first time the hostel had ever had kids stay with them! Atsui-chi was very friendly and provided a lot of useful information. He even got a friend of his to pick up something that we left on the bus. Very kind! We will definitely come back.

I have no words! They are fun, they make you feel at home, they get you in contact with Japanese Culture... Nikkorisou is the best place to stay in Nikko and in Japan!

Very nice home-like feeling to it. The owners don't speak much english, but are very friendly and kind. It is quite some way from the train station if you're intending to walk (about 20mins at a quick pace), but you can also take a bus to a stop just nearby (drop at the stop of the Shinkyou Bridge). The dorm room is quite small, but luckily it was all 5 of us only, so we didn't mind each others stuff all over the place. Washing machine is 200yen (free soap powder)

I loved staying here! My suitcase broke so they drove me, for free, all the way to a shopping mall to buy a new one! It\'s placed no more than 5 min away from the world heritage temple area. Definitely worth every penny!

This was my favourite hostel Ive stayed at. Both nights we stayed, we cooked food with the owners for dinner. Nabe, Takoyaki, Yaki Soba. Great food, and cheap - about 400-450yen each per person. Friendly staff, who speak english well, and enjoy having fun! I will definitely be returning again next time I'm in Nikko.

The rooms are spacious and charming, it was a real pleasure to stay there. The hostel is easy to find and the location is great. As for the atmosphere : it's the best hostel I've ever stayed in! It's lovely and you really feel like you're at home with friends! Thank you very much for these great moments! You're part of my best memories of Japan!

Excellent value for the money, plus the staff is some of the nicest I've ever met. Nothing to complain about tidiness either.
