The distance from temples is perfect but the condition of the building is poor. The elevator is not working, the floor carpet is too ancient, there’s moldy smell at the room and hallway. Too pricey for the poor condition of the hotel and the parking lot is 5-min away from the hotel.

I took my brother to Japan, and I wanted him to experience a traditional "ryokan", and even though the IROHA Hotel has "hotel" in the name, it is very much a ryokan with tatami floors in the rooms, shoji and fusuma doors, and you sleep on futons. There is a communal bath in the hotel in addition to the "unit baths" (with commode, sink, and shower/bath) in the rooms. They serve a traditional Japanese breakfast with rice, miso soup, pickles, grilled fish, simmered soybeans and hijiki (seaweed), shredded cabbage, with an egg and some bacon- very much the gohan (rice) okazu (variety of different foods). The IROHA is right across the street from Nikko Toshogu, one of the big tourist destinations in Nikko so the location is great. The big drawback of the IROHA is its age. It looks like it was built in the 1970's and has not been updated since then. It is very clean but old- faded carpet, dated wall coverings. This is likely why it is fairly inexpensive relative to other properties around it. A big highlight of check-in was the woman at reception. She wore a very attractive kimono, which I complimented, and she let me know her mother made it, which was also impressive. If you can get past the age of the hotel, it is possible to get a glimpse of traditional Japan, which is well worth it in my opinion. (Note also we had a minor medical emergency while staying at the IROHA, and they jumped into action to help.)

非常に古いホテル
コンセントが1箇所にしか無くとても不便。 Wi-Fi繋がってもスピードが遅くて結局使えない。 部屋内装、布団、家具など全て古い。 ホテルに入ったとたんカビ臭い。 部屋にトイレ、シャワーが付いていなくてびっくりした。 駐車場は歩いて5、6分程。駐車場看板も無いので本当にそこに止めて良いのか分からずとても迷った。 ホテルは東照宮の入り口の真ん前で便利。 スタッフは親切でした

This is the worst hotel I have stayed in in Japan. The lift was out of order and there was no internet available despite free wifi being advertised. Carrying luggage to the third floor was quite a challenge.The staff kept making excuses but no apologies. Very poor value for money and very unprofessional approach to service. Over priced

リーズナブルで日光東照宮に近いという点で決めました。 口コミ通りエレベーターは故障、 部屋に入ってみたら、寒い!設定温度30度にしました。 窓側のお縁にはカーテンがあったのですが、4枚の窓のうち1窓隠れるカーテンしかなく、裏手の方の部屋であったのですが、丸見えでした。 あとテレビがあるのですが映らない、アンテナが、、、 Wi-Fiも繋がらなくて、ロビーなら繋がる 朝食は品数が少し少なかったかなぁ、白ごはんは、誰が炊いたのか、粒がないご飯でした泣 でも、フロントのスタッフさんはカタコトの日本語ながら一生懸命説明してくれて、対応はよかったです。 お風呂も気持ちよかった。 フロントに海外の人を置いていること自体、モンク言えないし、解決しないなぁって思っちゃったり。 まぁ泊まるだけならいいのかなぁ

Le bain partagé est vraiment cool, mais j'ai cru remarqué quelques saleté dont de la mousse sur les planche de bois qui encadre le bain. La chambre traditionnelle est exactement ce qu'on attend. Il y a un fauteuil de massage proposé à l'entrée qui est utilisable pour quelques yen, des petits plats préparés par le personnel à la demande avant 22h, et les nuggets de poulet frit maison était superbe ! Bien sûr des yukatas sont proposés pour le séjour dans l'établissement et des accessoires sont en vente. Et le petit déjeuner traditionnel japonais fait maison était convaincant. En plus ils demandent si vous manger du porc ou si il y a des allergies. Très bien pensé. Bravo Points négatifs : La moquette dans l'escalier se retrouve très usé à certains endroits, ca ne rend pas l'hôtel très esthétique. Les panneaux séparant les pièces de la chambre avait des défauts, mais je ne pense pas que ça se change trop facilement. Les toilettes étaient assez bruyante mais je m'en remets. Pour le petit déjeuner, c'est aussi ma faute mais je n'avais pas vraiment d'idée de comment se mangé ou se cuisait certains aliments, j'ai eu l'impression de rater un bon moment. Dommage.
