{"product_id":"the-ritz-carlton-nikko-283816","title":"The Ritz Carlton Nikko","description":"\u003cp\u003eFounded on ground that has drawn mountain worship since the 8th century, The Ritz-Carlton, Nikko sits beside Lake Chuzenji, Japan's highest natural lake, which has served as a summer retreat since the late 1800s. The hotel occupies Nikko National Park in the Oku-Nikko highlands, near the Kegon Falls and the Senjogahara wetlands. Rooms come with a private bathroom, Nespresso machine and free Wi-Fi. The spa holds the brand's first onsen hot-spring facility, fed by geothermal water from Nikko Yumoto Onsen; guests can book a private outdoor pool alongside the shared baths. You can walk to Chuzenji Temple, founded in 784, for a fire ceremony where monks chant as cedar sticks burn. Toshogu Shrine and Rinnoji Temple lie a guided excursion away, with a purification ritual once reserved for the Tokugawa shoguns. A woodcarving class, taught in the Nikko-bori style by local artisans, uses a hikkaki chisel unique to the tradition. The Japanese Restaurant serves a multicourse kaiseki dinner on local Mashiko ware. Electric mountain bikes are available for exploring at your own pace. The fitness studio runs 24 hours a day, seven days a week.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"WETU","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43868390457403,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/6776\/2747\/files\/AHRPTWkO6eE43NYm5cqTjWmkIM3YNdNH3w9SD0H_HRXYqMYBIUNM7Kl8Rf808X7sDz2w5Iav9lJHdns8hgjWnwHUbxvnhhFFykAfxNHzEtIqoXcPvPoFy-nrv3AnrsgMCfCbwr3KPfPHwonHB-7d_w4800-h4800.jpg?v=1785179486","url":"https:\/\/plekify.com\/products\/the-ritz-carlton-nikko-283816","provider":"Plekify","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
