Kinugawa Onsen [Tochigi Prefecture]
Kinugawa Kanaya Hotel is a luxury Japanese-style hotel located in the center of Kinugawa Onsen hot spring town, which is only 30min from Nikko. Following extensive renovation, the hotel reopened in 2012 under the concept "Villa in the Valley" that was loved by John Kanaya, the hotel's founder.
The hotel offers both Japanese and Western rooms, all of which are facing Kinugawa River surrounded by abundant nature. The natural landscape from the rooms changes its color every season, which continuously offers fascinating memory to hotel guests. Especially in October and November, you can enjoy a stunning view of the mountain covered in autumn leaves.
Another highlight is 'Kanaya-style Kaiseki dinner', a pleasant harmony of Japanese kaiseki course and the culinary aesthetics of West, served with heartwarming hospitality.
