There were giant Japanese carpenter ants everywhere in the dining area, crawling around the sugar bowl, running up and down the carafe of maple syrup, it was insane. I’ve never seen ants that big, dozens of them. The only shower is a public bath that looked like it had never been cleaned. I took a shower in the morning and there was bath water in the bath with an iridescent film and dead bugs floating on it (perhaps a result of people staying who don’t know Japanese bath ettiequte? Or perhaps the bath water hadn’t been changed nor the bath cleaned in ages). Fortunately the door did lock so I was able to have a quick private shower, but I noticed that there was a large amount of mold flecks all over the wooden ceiling. The towel provided was just a wash cloth. The bed, however was clean and very comfortable and the curtains did a good job of shutting out the light. I was lucky to be the only one staying in the dormitory but I imagine it would have felt private even if I wasn’t. Loud music was played in the common area until around 10pm, and it seemed to be a sixty minute playlist on repeat, I heard the same songs a few times. The staff was very polite and attentive, they were the primary good feature of this lodging. The breakfast served was delicious despite the ants. I left a back up battery in the dorms and tried to reach the hotel 3 ways (Facebook, their website, and by phone from my next hotel) and was unable to get a response so I’ve written it off as lost for good.

Nice and quiet hotel. Very friendly and accommodating staff. They provided a shuttle service from their other location, which is next to the train station they even gave us a hitch to the reason station even though we decided to walk. There English was good, as well. The room was a good size and the bed was huge and comfortable. Very homely atmosphere. We would definitely stay here again.

Cheap place to stay in an expensive area
The place was decent enough for staying in, but felt very much like an American overload hostel. I'm aware that it was also a hostel, as well as a lodge, but it felt a little off to me. The hosts seemed nice enough, but didn't really seem to interested in our business. I noticed some other travellers arrived "too late" to order dinner, and so could not be served at 7pm when they arrived about 30 minutes after the 5pm deadline. Crazy in my opinion, to not accept money for a very basic and not that great meal! Room was a little small and a bit old and rundown for my taste, but you get what you pay for up a mountain I guess. Overall, the place could be alright for your stay, but it definitely wasn't for me.

Cosy guesthouse with friendly staff
This is a small, cosy place, slightly out of the centre of Nikko town (20-25 mins walk from Nikko station). Really friendly staff, would recommend as a comfortable base for exploring Nikko!

A little out of town but the cheapest option
This is a hostel so brace for a lot of people and little space and noise, especially in the dorm. There is only 1 bathroom for an entire floor and it is small. If you can afford a private room, always go that option. I was on the bottom and felt the bed move as the person above me breathed. The duvet and bed are comfy, for a hostel. For a hostel, however it is nice and cozy and the owners are very nice and try to accommodate. The meal options are quite good and home cooked.

Nice family run hostel
The best part about this place is the staff. They are friendly and accommodating. Everyone speaks English. They offered to hold our bags before and after check in. They gave us a ride to and from the station. They gave excellent advice on the sights around Nikko, walking paths and directions with maps. The breakfast was good and the location was quiet. The hard beds were not great.

Great experience
Hosts were incredibly friendly and helpful. Nice, homely lodge with fireplace, adorable dog, comfortable dining area. Bedroom was comfortable, and a decent size. WiFi worked well. Location was very scenic and peaceful, but I would not recommend walking from the station as we did. It is possible, but far more hilly than Google Maps would have you believe. Hosts gave us a lift back to the station without us even asking. We were very happy with our stay.

Just ok for one night
Our room had a strong mold smell, almost unbearable. Very noisy due to poor insulation. Staff was friendly overall. The hotel is in a remote location but a staff member was friendly enough to give us a lift to the fall and took us downtown later on. Breakfast was plentiful and good. We wouldn't stay there again due to the smelly room and the noise. We had to figure out by ourselves how to turn the heating system and the TV (no instructions in English). Beds were just ok.

Rustic charm
Nikko Park Lodge Mountainside is very different from most other Japanese places we stayed in (usual hotels and Ryokans). It's more like an English B&B insofar as there's a communal lounge with cosy fireplace and the decorations and furnishing are more European Op shop in look.The service however was excellent and the location beautiful and quiet. The owners transported our bags from and back to the town which helped as the lodge is about a 20 minute walk from the station. The breakfasts were cheap and plentiful and the rooms quiet and cosy with TV that had English speaking channels. Walking to the main shrines was easy and picturesque. More shabby than chic but a very good option for not much money.

An excellent choice.
Hotel staff was very friendly, hotel was tidy and clean, very comfortable, and had a bit of a rustic feel to it, without being old and grimy. The bunks are very large, I'm 6'1", and there was no length issues in the dorm, lots of very comfortable blankets, and a reasonably large common and dining area. The hotel is a little bit tricky to find, though they also own the hotel closer to the train station, and a shuttle sometimes runs from there. The location is very quiet and peaceful, and I would definitely stay here again if I were ever back in Nikko. The only downside to me is the washrooms weren't great, but they weren't bad, either.
