My traveling companion is allergic to gluten and the personel put together a complete breakfast that suited their needs - gluten free bread, salad, dressings, etc. The personel was exceptionally good, great service, very kind and they even upgraded us to a bigger room free of charge when it wasn't booked anymore. Additionally, they offered to drive us to the local train station when we were leaving. The onsen baths were good, the location great, the local scenery was also perfect for a stroll. Overall a 11/10 experience, the personel service goes unmatched anything I have ever experienced during my travels.

One should give a „11“! Located about 25 Minutes by foot in the hills across the shrines overlooking inari River, absolutely quiet. A Shuttle picks up and drops off (do Not Let the rather harsh Tone of the Emails concerning early checkin (extra cost) Irritate you - that is probably die to the poor English); if you Are staying for more than one Night, they ask you Several times when and how they could Transport you to town etc. Recommend at least two Nights so you can enjoy the Room, the food, the Drinks, the music, the atmosphere. Rooms very spacious; the huge Window is fantastic (and Not cold surprisingly, so Sitting in Front sipping Tea or freshly brewed coffee is a treat Even when cold outside). Free bathtub plus shower (separate). Very stylish and comfortable. Huge bed, rather soft (by japanese standards). The decoration addresses European style luxury travellers, but obviously the japanese guests appreciate it, too. Two floors of rooms. The Lobby downstairs is also the dining Room. Free sparkling wine (very good!) and drinks from 5-6. during dinner, they Play music/videos to the guests‘ wishes. A absolute marvel is the food- do Not know where they found this Cook. Mixture of japanese and french Cuisine at its best. Very Tasty, very elegant Concept of five or six courses; breakfast on a tray with all you could ask for. The Bread (Three different kinds to three courses at Dinner, two different kinds for breakfast and no repetition) is superb and of the finest Kind! Strongly recommend to opt for the breakfast and dinner included plan! (Especially since all other options are in town). The interior speaks of the owner - a marketing Specialist who has a Vision. Very remarkable is the - abundant- staff. Extremely Super Polite (Even by japanese standards)and attentive (e.g. dried and cleaned our Shoes as a Service after we had taken a hike into the Woods during rain), very sweet and engaged. English is little present but the kindness makes up for that completely.

The host and staff were extremely kind and helpful. Since it was raining at my arrival, they were kind enough to pick me up at the station even without me asking. Riye, in particular was very sweet and explained me everything from food to customs. The room was amazing it really felt like going back to Edo period. The food was delicious both during breakfast and dinner. Obviously the onsen was cosy and relaxing. This was among my favourite stays in Japan. Thank you so much to all the staff!

We enjoyed our stay at Kanaya Hotel Kinugawa. The hotel is well maintained and the staff are all very friendly and helpful and tried their best to ensure that you have an enjoyable stay. We would like to especially thank Emi from the Teppanyaki restaurant for going out of her way to prepare for us the transportation information to get to Chuzenji Lake, our destination the next day. Also, thank you to Fuchigami san who made us feel very welcome and picked us up & dropped us off at the train station (although it was a short distance from the hotel).

    Kinugawa Park Hotels is a nice Japanese-style inn with large and comfortable rooms offering both European beds as well as Tatami mats. The Onsen public baths are a bit dated, but well laid out and a nice experience.

    Rooms are very big and comfy, onsen is small but very nice to enjoy. Nikko is quiet and calm and so was this location. Breakfast included was the right choice because it‘s hard to find something to eat nearby especially in the morning. Ryokan is amazingly beautiful and futon was adequate.

    Beautiful views, warm welcome, comfortable futon, and overall nice japanese style room. I loved the yukata that we received, and I was extremely happy with the onsen. The lobby area is very nice, i appreciated that we could leave the luggage there. The area itself is also very enjoyable and walkable, and the accommodation is also close to the station.
