"Loved the hot springs. The hotel was also very luxurious - a really nice place to spend a few days."

"Very nice and clean. With free flow drinks, sake beer in lounge from 5pm to 10pm every day. Great location in the middle of the town center.Only down side is not many car parks available at the hotel. Off site parking is quite a distance away from the hotel."

"Great service, clean rooms, great amenities, perfect location "

"Fantastic ryokan experience. Staff extremely kind, room was perfect and onsem (public thermal bath) at the hotel was very good. It is one block from the train and bus station and 5-minute distance from the most crowded tourist area."

"Love the room with the in-room open air bath. The dinner buffet spread was great and the staff there are all super helpful and friendly "

"I'm hesitant to recommend Takayama because one of its charms is that it is off the beaten track, and who wants more people there to spoil this? But, in truth, the town is a wonderful place, and this hotel was very good. We came from Tokyo so were delighted to find a very large room, very clean, and very comfortable. The hotel is right next to the train and bus station so could not be more convenient, and within easy walking distance of just about everything that Takayama has to offer, including eating places, the historic district, and museums and shopping. Hida Folk Village is about 1.2 km away, and easily accessible by bus, but we decided to walk. Definitely worth looking at. The historic district is fantastic and the main shopping street very interesting. The staff at the hotel were friendly and approachable, and the room super comfortable. There are no breakfast options, but there is an excellent coffee/breakfast place next door. All in all, an excellent experience in Takayama itself and at this hotel."

"Very nice hotel, great location and the private baths were a nice bonus!"

"The service we received from this hotel is of next level. We could not be more satisfied. The dinner and breakfast are so good, we even got our private room for 2 for both meals. "

"We loved our stay here - our room was large and comfortable and well equipped and the breakfast was excellent. Location was perfect - so close to the station but also walkable distance to all the main sights. Only downside to our room was that there are no windows to open and the one window was frosted. Beware that while there are lifts inside, it’s about 30 steps up to reception which can make for a challenging time with luggage! "
