Overall good stay.

The service staff was good, except on the day of checkout when they were very insistent that we checked out before the 10 am checkout time, even though I kept explaining that I had my children and wife still in the room while I returned my rental car. They almost made me late returning my car by having me explain my whole itinerary to them that morning.

This is a small hotel with limited hotel rooms. Some rooms need to shared bath. We stayed in a Japanese style room with a private bath. The room is not fancy but clean and confortable.
The hotel is walkable distance to most of the attractions, only 2 min walk to Shokyo bridge, 15 mins walk to Toshogu Shrine, and 18 mins walk to Tobu-Nikko train station. The Heritage shuttle bus stop 7 is right in front of the hotel.

Nikko Tokino Yuu was a convenient hotel for an overnight visit to Nikko to see the shrine and tomb of Tokagawa Ieyasu at Nikko-Tosho-gu.
with simple Ryokan style rooms and a modest basement onsen, this was a comfortable hotel for a night.

Perfect place in Nikko

We really enjoyed our stay at Nikko Tokino Yuu. The room was spotless, roomy and decently equipped. The service was really friendly and helpful even if we do not speak Japanese very well. I especially loved the large public bath. It was quiet and well-maintained, and had a view of a small garden. When I was enjoying a bath there, it started to rain lightly. I could smell the rain and see the plants get a little wet - it was the best feeling ever.

If we were ever back in Nikko, we would come back to this place!

They have strict COVID measurement procedures, which made us feel safe and comfortable!

A warm, freindly, traditional experience

We arrived at 11:30pm do to traveling late, I received multiple emails from the hotel asking what time I would arrive (I unfortunately didn’t see them until I arrived because I wasn’t checking my phone). This was very responsible of them and I appreciate their concern. The hotel room is bigger than I thought it would be and the futon was comfortable. The closing time for the bath hous is reasonable and very warm. I enjoyed all of our amenities and the front desk is so kind! Thanks again!

I stayed here because I found a review on another site saying tattoos were ok at the onsen. That was true. The onsen, however, was a bit basic. The staff, although they couldn't speak a lot of English, were extremely kind and welcoming. Even helped us locate a lost bag by calling the bus company and train station for us. The big selling point is the location. A bit of a walk from the station. But an easy walk to all the sightseeing spots.

Ok ryokan, can find better accommodation elsewhere

The hotel was nicely located on the main street (close to shrines and Nikko tourist attractions). A few minutes from main station (can walk up to it, but it's on a slight hill).
The ryokan itself was ok on first impression (tatami in room, bedding was fine and warm, but the room was cold to start with, as temperature was low -there is the AC, but it only is a single blast of air, so need to repeat the operation several times). I think it's because windows were left opened to aerate.
The downsides are several: No curtain (only a 'paper wall' as seen in Japanese accommodation). It's a problem as you're awoken by light in the morning.
The room we had was situated on the street, which is very noisy in the morning (from about 4am, lots of heavy traffic outside, so we had to use earplugs/eye masks).
There was no bathroom at all (only a sink) and the 'main bathroom' on the floor were more sinks, so impossible to shower, unless you went to the onsen on the ground floor. Main issue really was the toilet, which really made us noiseous in the morning (so much so that we had to take out stuff and pack outside the room after breakfast as we could no longer stand it). We went to other ryokan and hotels in Japan during our stay, and this was the worse. I would not recommend, as other accommodation would be preferable. Breakfast (offered, but you do pay for it through your room fee!) was minimal and cheap (jam/butter in a 'press and spread' combo serving, juice-drink, Kraft sliced cheese)

Overall good stay ryokan style

Tokino yuu is at a wonderful location for travellers intending to visit the shrines and beyond. Bus stop no. 7 is right at the door step, so for those who intend to stay for 2 days, do consider getting the bus pass for up to Lake Chuzenji onsen (2000 yen) or Yumoto onsen (3500 yen), and you can take the bus from train station to Tokino yuu with this bus pass. For those with heavy luggage, do not consider walking up unless you are used to walking with heavy cargo. Room is spacious, comfortable. We reserve the room with private bath, but for those who are ok with a public bath (available on each room), then room with private bath may not be necessary. Basic breakfast is served, which is ok. Hotel basement is a grand public bath for a hot soak included, but only gripe may be it seems the hot onsen pool needs to be cleaned more often. As both me and my female companion notice some \"foreign particles\" in the pool, which I think for Japanese standard not really good. Overall good for stay for overnights at Nikko for travellers.

Comfortable, Japanese-style hotel

This Japanese-style hotel is well-situated by the entrance to the Nikko National Park and close to Tosho-gu shrine. The neighbourhood has several restaurant options, but it is quite far from the main train station on foot. The room was very spacious, with a low kotatsu table, and a nice view of the main street. There is also a TV and kettle available, and futons for the guests. Recommended for those who would like to have a Japanese inn experience for a more reasonable cost.

Recently updated, friendly hotel near the sights

Toki no Yuu is a nicely updated, friendly hotel near Shinkyou bridge. Walkable to Toshogu and a bus stop to the station right in front. Rooms are clean and look recently redecorated and updated. Our room overlooked the main road but didn't hear any noise. Breakfast was nice and staff was really helpful. I would have liked a slightly nicer onsen inside and the area itself is a bit lacking in restaurants / convenience stores but that' a Nikko issue, not a problem with the hotel.

Solid no frills hotel for the seasoned traveller

This hotel is in a good location, but should not be for your first experience for a Japanese style hotel. It is just not finished in that way. It is more of a low key hotel, though can work just fine if you are a seasoned traveller in Japan and not looking for anything too special. We stayed Friday night and Saturday night. The hotel was fully booked Saturday night, and Sunday morning breakfast had 90% more than Saturday. In other words, the hotel doesn't put out a full breakfast option when the hotel is not really that booked. On the plus side, the Onsen (public bath) was empty on Friday night... The hotel also seems to nickle and dime a bit. Charing 1000yen for each half hour your stay past the 10 am checkout, and also charging 500yen to keep your bag for the day.

Best option is oernighting in Nikko.

Located just at the entrance of the temple area, with a 20 minutes walking distance to the station this option i most surely the best for those who decide to overnight in Nikko. The hotel/ryokan does not look great, but the rooms are just perfect. Large, clean and comfortable and in a perfect Japanese style. The hotel also offers a bathhouse, which is very enjoyable. My partner and I used it everynight of our stay. If overnighting back to Nikko I would stay here again. Good value for money.
