Hotels near Kirifuri Highlands, Nikko

Thank you for hospitality and lovely stay in your hotel. As always, Fairfield by Marriott offers simple, but well designed quality rooms, spotless clean environment and professional staff. I enjoyed the location away from the city centre with nice mountain view. Shuttle service to and from Nikko Tobu Station is great, however taxis were also available as well for reasonable 1000 yen fee.

Nice family run acomodation, great location in the forest. The owners are very helpful, ful of stories and information. Make sure to get at least on dinner :)

The space is so beautiful and cozy. Fumi san is an amazing host! The space is so well curated for entertainment and to relax. Beds are super cozy and nice

This place is a true hidden gem in Nikko! Everything was spot on, with thoughtful high-quality touches throughout. The location is perfect—just 20 to 25 minutes from Nikko centre, making it both peaceful and convenient.

Peacefulness and amazing staff, willing to help with anything required. Took me to nearby waterfall, train pickup and outdoor bath

I selected this place because I read other reviews about the eclectic unique nature of the hotel and atmosphere. I wasn’t disappointed, in fact it exceeded my expectations in every way. The moment you arrive and are greeted warmly by the staff and handed a free drink of your choice, sets the tone for a wonderful experience ahead. The room was huge, warm, comfortable and very special in its minute details of architecture. We chose a river view room and I would highly recommend doing so as the massive picture window overlooks the forest and mountains and is simply breathtaking in the morning sunrise. This hotel was designed with careful thought given to every detail in its creation, with the mindset of creating a restful respite from the modern busy world we live in today. It has achieved this goal in my opinion and then some. We had the honour and pleasure of meeting the architect the second day we stayed and had a conversation with him about his wonderful hotel, he is such a joy to speak with. The food was also an absolute delight, huge filling and varied items at breakfast, and sumptuous selections and pairings at dinner. The staff are The best of anywhere we have stayed so far in Japan, and are gracious and smiling all the time. We speak very limited Japanese but this was never a problem so don’t worry about this as a barrier for coming here. We wouldn’t hesitate to come back and I was sorry I had to leave. This hotel, and Nikko is such a special beautiful place everyone should see it once if they can. Thank you shelter garden and staff for allowing me to have such a warm, restful and wonderful stay at your gorgeous hotel, and thank you so much for all your warmth and hospitality.
