Hotel is very close to all the world heritage sites right across from the parking lots. Walking distance to sites and train station
The half board option is very nice. Dinner served in the room
There is onsen on premise
The hotel is somewhat older but that maybe part of its charm. We chose to stay in Japanese style room with tatami floor. The futon was much more comfortable than I thought.

Staffs' exceptional services, beautiful and delicious dinner and breakfast, good size room, nice amenities in the public bath. Very close to Nikko Toshogu. It is excellent if the internet connection can be more stable.

Amazing location! Nostalgic hotel :)
This hotel was in an amazing location - less than 5 mins walk to toshugu and rinnoji temple - as an added bonus they have free pick up from Tobu-Nikko station and there is a free shuttle at designated times back to the station. Great service from all the staff. We got the Japanese style room - although it was a bit basic/ dated, it had all the amenities required for a short stay. Futons were also very comfy. The dinner (served in room) and breakfast were amazing! The outdoor onsen was also a treat!

Charming and friendly
Charming and friendly experience at an older, but well maintained, ryokan. Excellent service and delicious food. There was some noise of a school group. The location is ideal.

Authentic Japanese experience
We had three days here and loved it. The hotel is in an excellent location for visiting the Toshuga temple. It’s just a short distance up the hill by either road or stairs. The Shinkyo bridge is just a short distance down. We booked a room with both breakfast and dinner, which are excellent in quality, variety and presentation. The staff explained every dish and there was always more than we could possibly eat.
We had a small western room. Our only complaint was that the bathroom is up a step making it a bit dodgy in the middle of the night. Our friend had a Japanese room which had the same small bathroom but also an extra loo on the same level. The advantage of the western room was a bedside table and light.
The Ibsen experience is excellent. In these public bath rooms are every amenity you could wish for.
We really enjoyed this Japanese experience as it gives you a much better appreciation of the Japanese culture.
The staff do everything they can to make you feel welcome.

Charming traditional-style hotel
A lovely and convenient place to stay near the Nikko temples and only a short walk to the rest of town. The staff were unfailingly sweet and the food was delicious. The room was a little dusty but comfortable, and the onsen very charming.

Excellent cozy place in the mountainous Nikko area
We arrived a bit late to the hotel and missed dinner because of it. One of the staff members went out of his way to personally drive us to a small store nearby to get some food for the night. Really excellent customer obsession!
The meals at the ryokan were full of variety. Lots of little dishes, both hot and cold, and always with green tea. This was definitely a big perk of Hotel Seikoen. It's worth knowing that breakfast is served over in the restaurant area beyond the front desk, while dinner is served in your room.
The hotel itself can be a little hard to find if you're coming in via rail at night. It's beneficial having a print-out of the map or a GPS-enabled device.
