Smile Hotel Utsunomiya Nishiguchi Ekimae

This was the second time that I stayed at this hotel. It's right next to the station and also connected directly to a convenience store (you can go there in slippers). I liked the new style, being able to borrow adapters for el. plug and overall getting what I expected. Not having to use card when using the elevator makes the stay more comfortable. The breakfast was also very good, offering both western and Japanese food.

The staff at the Smile were very accommodating and helpful, permitting us to store luggage beforehand and taking it to our room before we returned. The room was extremely clean. The bed was firm and comfortable. Although it is beside the train tracks, we found it quite quiet. A real advantage of the hotel is its location, 5 minutes from the train and the city bus that goes to the Oya Museum and the OyaTemple beside it. (Both recommended.) There is also a 7-11 attached to the hotel lobby.

The room was spacious, with a good space in the entrance way. The location was excellent, very close to Utsunomiya JR station, plus the convenience store next to the hotel is always welcome. The staff were super welcoming! Shoutout to the kind ladies at the hotel’s restaurant!

2 minutes walk from the train and bus station. 15 minutes walk from the busy area with food and drinks Spotless. Good bathroom. Friendly staff.

Close to train station, nice staff, good facilities, lots of nearby restaurents, nice sized room, staff held our luggage for us before the checkin
