"The place is worn down. When you walk in, the lobby looks nice and impressive. Once you enter the floors to the rooms, the carpets are badly stained. There’s a moldy smell to the hall and the carpets are so worn down, they partially covered...them with improvised pieces of other carpet pieces. The whole floor was bumpy, the suitcase had a hard time getting over the bumps, so we had to carry it. We booked this place especially because they offered a sauna and wellness area. When we asked where to find the area the staff at the reception told us, we didn’t book it and it is not included in our room booking. We were very surprised as we especially looked for a place with these facilities. We went to our room and checked our booking, to realize WE DID BOOK IT. We have screenshots of the listed services to prove it. We went back down to the reception to show them our booking. It’s THEN they told us, the wellness area is closed due to constructional work. So it doesn’t matter whether we booked it or not. We paid additional to get access to wellness on my wife’s birthday, we drove all the way to have a nice evening at that hotel to be fully disappointed. They said it must have been a mistake by Booking.com, as they state it very clearly on their website and we should’ve checked their website instead of relying on Booking.com. This was a very frustrating experience with Hotel NIKKO and we’ll not return to this place."

"After a horrendous drive up from Munich we needed some good old fashioned culinary comfort and boy did we get it. I booked a few hours in advance and my non-existent German wasn’t a problem, the receptionist spoke English well and was happy to take...our booking. Traffic and roadworks meant that we were running late but the restaurant was more than happy to shift our booking 30 minutes and accommodate. When we arrived we were struck by an informal and buzzing environment. The customers seemed relaxed and at ease as the friendly staff buzzed around tending to their needs. My wife ordered a delicious orange and carrot soup for a starter and I had a rather simple bruschetta, rocket and parmesan dish. For main courses my two boys ordered pizza, which although made which gouda rather than mozzarella were delicious; stone-baked in an enormous clay oven and huge! Our 14 year old was delighted and although our youngest struggled to finish his pizza the staff were more than happy to wrap it up for him to take away. My wife enjoyed spaghetti, garlic, chilli with extra shrimps and I was blown away by the tagliatelle with beef steak strips, mushroom and truffle. I’m not exaggerating when I say it was one of the best pasta dishes I’ve ever had. We finished off with tiramisu to share between four and my wife and I were gifted a limoncello and grappa. The cost was less than €90 for the four of us. We felt spoiled and really happy with a terrific meal at a terrific price. I heartily recommend Toscanini. What a warm and friendly restaurant. An utter delight."
