Japan's oldest resort hotel, visited by famous historical figures from around the world

Opened in 1873, this is Japan’s oldest resort hotel and has been visited by many famous people, including Albert Einstein, Charles Lindbergh, and Helen Keller.
While the exterior is Western-style, the interior incorporates Japanese furnishings and architectural styles throughout, creating a mysteriously nostalgic and gentle atmosphere.
The unique guest rooms, which have been used by many famous people, create an extraordinary moment as if you have traveled back in time.
The restaurant also serves lunch and dinner, and serves dishes that combine tradition and innovation.
The hotel is just a 5-minute walk from the World Heritage Site, “Shrines and Temples of Nikko”, including Nikko Toshogu Shrine, making it an ideal hotel for early morning sightseeing to avoid the crowds.

Nikko Area

The Nikko area, in the northwestern part of the prefecture, is particularly mountainous. In the midst of the rich nature, including the 2,486-meter-high volcano Mt. Nantai, Lake Chuzenji, and Kegon Falls, there are numerous shrines and temples that are registered as UNESCO Cultural Heritage sites. From Kinugawa Onsen to Kawaji Onsen, hot springs can also be found throughout the area. There are a wide range of outdoor activities to enjoy as well, such as stand-up paddleboarding in the summer and snowshoeing in the winter.
