Welcome to The Ritz-Carlton, Nikko
Our Lake Chuzenji hotel overlooks Mount Nantai and offers luxury accommodations. The Ritz-Carlton, Nikko, breathes tranquility throughout. Local elements are elevated yet retain Japan’s beautiful minimalism: featuring traditional engawas or porches, the wellness experience is highlighted by an onsen, or hot spring, the only one of its kind for The Ritz-Carlton.

Destination & Activities
Being embedded in nature results in an array of activities for guests, such as hiking, skiing, and exploring nearby attractions, including natural hot springs, Kegon Falls, the Senjo-Gahara marshland and Nikko’s UNESCO World Heritage shrines and temples.
Set within Nikko National Park in the mountainous region of Oku-Nikko (Inner-Nikko), the hotel immerses guests in the ever-changing palette of Japan’s natural beauty. Spring welcomes cherry blossoms and colorful wildflowers; summer explodes into an expanse of green forests; fall brings with it tones of orange and yellow and winter dresses itself in a fresh coat of white snow.
