Taoya Nikko Kirifuri Hotel

3-star ryokan with all-inclusive meals and open-air hot springs in Nikko's forest

Hot Spring & Wellness

TAOYA Nikko Kirifuri offers an on-site open-air bath and sauna, both with views of the stars at night and the sunrise in the morning. The public bath includes a rooftop area and towels are provided at the bath, so guests need not carry them from their rooms. Massage chairs are available adjacent to the bath area for post-onsen relaxation.

Dining & All-Inclusive Offerings

The hotel's buffet restaurant serves Japanese, sushi, and European cuisines for dinner and breakfast, with two seating times (around 5 pm and 7 pm) to avoid crowding. All alcoholic beverages, including sake, beer, wine, and sparkling wine at breakfast, are included in the room rate. Late-night snacks such as curry udon and soft-serve ice cream are available for free in the lobby near the fireplace.

Recreational Activities

Guests at Taoya Nikko Kirifuri can play table tennis or karaoke in dedicated rooms adjacent to the massage chair area. The property has a tennis court across the front entrance, with racket and ball rental available for 1100 yen. A walking trail through the surrounding forest starts from the hotel, though it is closed after dark and during bear warnings.

Accommodations

The ryokan offers traditional tatami rooms with shared or private bathrooms, and family rooms that can sleep multiple guests. Each air-conditioned room includes a flat-screen TV, yukata robes for wearing during the stay, and free toiletries. Some rooms have a private bath, and the hotel provides wheelchair-accessible rooms and facilities for disabled guests.
