The Ritz-Carlton Nikko
Hidden in Japan’s northern Kanto region and set along the scenic Lake Chuzenji, The Ritz-Carlton, Nikko offers a pristine haven where nature and culture are revered. Graceful and minimal, the hotel showcases the subtle feel of luxury through dining and spa experiences and accommodations that overlook Lake Chuzenji or Mount Nantai.
At The Ritz-Carlton, Nikko local elements are elevated yet retain Japan’s beautiful minimalism: luxury accommodations feature traditional engawas, or porches, and the wellness experience is highlighted by an Onsen, or Japanese hot spring, the only of its kind for The Ritz-Carlton.
The freshest local fare is transformed into stellar creations at two restaurants serving Japanese and western cuisine. The Japanese Restaurant by The Ritz-Carlton, Nikko open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, this venue offer three dedicated areas for sushi, teppanyaki, and kaiseki. Under the creative vision and watchful eye of executive chef Shingo Hayasaka, Lakehouse, hotel's two-story western-style restaurant unites produce from local farms with the daily catch of nearby waters, creating memorable meals by letting the intrinsic flavors of fresh premium ingredients shine. Fine whiskeys from Japan and abroad are served over hand-chipped ice spheres made from the pure waters of Nikko, and original cocktails showcase local ingredients at The Bar. With its ample use of natural wood and the soft natural light that flows in from the long bank of windows overlooking the hotel garden and the lake and mountains beyond, The Lobby Lounge is a perfect place to unwind with hotel's signature afternoon tea and views, a delight in every season.
Being embedded in nature allows guests to participate in an array of activities, from hiking to skiing, and explore sights including natural hot springs, Kegon Falls, the Senjo-Gahara marshland and Nikko’s UNESCO World Heritage shrines and temples. The Ritz-Carlton, Nikko also offer exclusive accesses for those looking to unveil the mystique of Nikko’s sacred shrines and temples.
