Nikko Park Lodge Tobu Station

Convenient place just across Tobu Nikko station. For one night we had all we needed in our twin room, which was like a studio: private bathroom, kitchen corner with microwave, kettle, sink and fridge (no kitchen amenities), balcony with view. Heating and heated blanket did their job in the cold night. There’s a Supermarket and a Laundry service close by. The hotel needs for sure some maintenance and insulation can be improved as it was very cold. The only way to get to upper floors is by elevator, as I tried using the stairs but they were blocked by piles of sheets, which is not ideal as there should be emergency exits! Not really a budget accommodation compared to other places I stayed in Japan and for the standard offered.

There were cockroaches in the hotel and not a clean place to stay. No coffee or tea in the room.

Definitely one of the closest if not the closest accommodation within station. The owner also operates a bar right beside the accommodation so if you want to have late night chat or get together, its not a problem. The bed is also heated, which is desirable during the winter or cold weather. The only downside is there is no dedicated front desk. You have to call their phone number if they are not around. If not for other waiting travelers who have japanese phone, we could have been waiting for hours.

clean enough and pretty comfortable, i wouldnt stay for more than one night though

Really liked this place. The location was good and staff were friendly

The only really good point is the location of the Hostel. Otherwise, it's... The minimum you need, stagnant water on the showers, you have to do and undo your bed's sheets yourself (isn't it what I am paying for ?), and the staff was honestly pretty unpleasant, I've done 12 Hostels during my trip, it was the worst, but for a night or 2, you know, it does the job
