the building is in bad shape, badly needs to be overhauled, but being a bubble investement it's too big thus unlikely to ever earn a corresponding income. The public outside baths are refreshing but again the inside connected facilities require repair. The onsen water i apprreciated.

While it's very reasonably priced, this place is not well connected in terms of public transportation, and is very tired and old. Better to stay in Nikko town if time is a constraint.

Good facilities, but run down, isolated area
Wide range of facilities that deservedly give it its ‘resort’ name, but everything is a little worn and tattered. Great if you’re a 70s or 80s fan! From the look of the numbers in the vast breakfast hall, there only seemed to be dozens of couples & families staying when we were there in a massive complex with perhaps hundreds of beds. Biggest disadvantage was its location, hour train trip each way each day from Nikko, in a desolate town where half the buildings seemed derelict it unoccupied. The highlight was we were one of the few areas to still have Onsen in the snow this late in winter (Feb).

The staff was beyond amazing. I don't know much Japanese but there was no language barrier. They picked us up from the station and recommended nearby restaurants for dinner. Everyone was just so polite and hospitable that i regret only staying one night! There was too much to do and see but not enough time!

Good place for 3 nights
It was 1 hour further from Tobu Nikko. There is another LiveMax hotel nearby so make sure you enter the full address in Google Map. We ended up in the wrong place at first go but got help from a really nice local staff. Other than that, quite enjoyed our stay. The hotel is going through renovation so some part of it looks good while other looks a bit old. We stayed in a traditional tatami room and loved it. Nice onsen on the B1 floor with massage chairs. We love the Ping pong table & arcade game area as well. Not many restaurants around but the ramen place next to the hotel is awesome. Came there twice.
