My husband and I stayed for two nights in the dorm room (reserved for just the two of us instead of four, because the private rooms were booked). Sato and Kumiko are the best hosts! They're funny, welcoming, friendly, generous, and entertaining. You can tell they really enjoy running a guesthouse and meeting people. We spent two fun evenings hanging... More

We spent 3 days 2 nights in Nikko and felt that this is the best guesthouse ever. Location is perfect only 3 minutes on foot from Tobu Nikko station. The owner (Sato-san and Kumico-san) were indeed friendly and helpful. In Nikko, we also rented lovely kimono dress set in UTAKATA. Without doubt, NIKKO GUESTHOUSE SUMICA is highly recommended if you... More

I traveled alone and stayed there for 2 nights. very safe and quiet, but I never felt lonely. We (taiwanese guests, host and me) enjoy playing card at night with a cheerfull atmosphere till late time. Nationalities or languages were not a barrier. I thought that all guests would get a prediction from the Host's Fortune Card. That is a... More

Very convenient location close to train station, supermarket and restaurants - most other hostels and guesthouse are a lot further away, so if you have a heavy pack its a good spot to settle in. Hosts are VERY nice and accomadating. More

I really enjoyed my days in Nikko Guesthouse Sumica! From the very first beginning, the couple, Sato and Kumiko, welcomed me with wide smiles and attentions. Kind of meeting your old friends in the new place:) It's located near the stations (between JR and Tobu, accross the stations' side), very comfortable after almost 3-hour train ride from Tokyo. Its small... More

The Nikko Guesthouse is a smaller hostel conveniently located a few blocks away from the train station. The hosts were very welcoming and went above and beyond in making sure I had the best experience while in Nikko. We also had a fun time hanging out in the evening after I had adventured out in Nikko all day. More

This was an excellent place to stay in Nikko: Very conveniently located (close to the train station and the main street), beautiful house (traditional tatami rooms) with the most friendly staff. We were invited to a party on the first evening there and we had an excellent night out in a private mountain house, with homemade food and local drinks.... More

This is a budget guesthouse located right between the train stations in Nikko, a very handy position for the buses to the sight area as well. The hosts are wonderful: the evening meals are often cooked and eaten together with the guests in the common room; they can also give advice about hikes, sights, onsen... love them. Be aware that...

My wife and I stayed here a couple of nights over the summer. The guesthouse was extremely clean and the owners were really welcoming and friendly. They went out of their way to make sure that we had a good time despite the Typhoon weather! We can't fault the place in any way so it well deserves an excellent rating. More
