Hotel Seikoen

Very old school ryokan run by very friendly who has been working there for many years. Your name will be displayed on the board next to the entrance of the ryokan to show that they were currently welcoming these guests staying at the ryokan! We stayed there for 2 nights with free parking and we didn’t have to drive anywhere until we checked out as the ryokan is within walking distance to the 3 major world heritage listed shrines including The Toshogu Palace. Avoid room 312 or 313 (which we stayed) which are the smallest rooms. Those rooms in the middle parts are bigger and more comfortable. Do ask for any room facing the back of the ryokan and avoid those facing the front where you only see car parks with coaches coming in the morning bringing tourists to the shrines. The onsite Onsen for ryokan guests, breakfasts and dinners are the highlights. You’d love the traditional Japanese meals served there and you won’t be hungry. Would I come back to this ryokan again? Yes definitely due to its location and friendly staff.

旅館在東照宮旁，環境清幽，空氣清新。 服務人員十分熱情與親切。 房間每天都會換新的日用品。 膳食一流，每天都在期待。

Amazing authentic experience. Very tasty food served in your room. Good onsen with real hot springs. Very good location in the middle of park with all the temples. Very convenient, walkable to everything and close to bus stating to other locations
