Nikkō Park Lodge Tōbu Station

Nikkō


Handy for Tōbu Station, this guesthouse has reimagined an old apartment building as a mishmash of dorms, studio apartments with small balconies, and hotel rooms with shared bath facilities. Accommodations vary in style but are clean and secure. Check in at the cafe on the ground floor.

The same team also run Nikkō Park Lodge.
