    Units for a futon. Its decoration was nice. Our accommodation was set in a central location near quiet neigborhood and the Old Town and main shrine-perfect and bus terminal.

    My family and I recently stayed at a fantastic little inn in Takayama. The staff were incredibly friendly and the amenities were great, including laundry facilities, tea and coffee, and a fully stocked kitchen. The warm common room was a cozy retreat during the winter, and we even had the opportunity to cook over the firepit. The location was perfect, just a few minutes' walk from shops and restaurants but still peaceful and secluded. I highly recommend this inn for anyone visiting Takayama.

    100% Recommend this hotel.

    Clean hotel, very professional staff & comfortable location next to the beautiful river. Reasonably large rooms for a futon available. Location not far from quiet neigborhood and the historical center. For shots visit Sakurajaya, nestled within 20 minutes' walk of the venue: )

    The traditional old guest house was a nice touch. The place attracts a good sort of crowd and you forget sometimes that it’s been standing since 1927. The staff are amazing and even went above and beyond to help mail my passport when I left it behind. The room is very clean and pleasant. The kitchen and kitchenware are almost professional so I highly recommend it for long-stay guests or someone who loves cooking. The hostel is in a quiet neighborhood next to the beautiful river. I'll recommend this place for its charm and helpful staff.

    Favourable location of the hotel close to river. We thoroughly enjoyed a twin room provided with a lovely Japanese garden, futon beds plus a fireplace.

    I had an amazing stay at this guesthouse! From the moment I arrived, the staff made me feel welcomed and showed me around. The private room I booked turned out to be very spacious, with a comfortable futon and all the necessary amenities. The shower room was also big and clean. The location of the guesthouse was perfect, just a short walk from the station and close to the beautiful river. It was also conveniently located near the shrine where the autumn festival is held. The hotel facilities, including the traditional fireplace room and well-equipped kitchen, were impressive. The staff went above and beyond to make everyone feel at home and even provided free Japanese snacks. this was one of the best places I've stayed in Japan.

    Nothing bad to say.

    I keep coming back to my favorite spot for trips. The first staff's wake-up call sealed the deal. With free Wi-Fi, luggage storage, and a shared kitchen, it's perfect. I'm returning for another great stay!

    Comfortable room with a good size and great heating. The bed was comfy, and I had control over the room temperature. Also, there was a nice writing desk. The location was super convenient, just a few steps from everywhere I needed to get to. 😊

    Good location to get to popular Takayama attractions thanks to a train station walk from the hotel. And just 5 min walking to city centre. Fantastic & big rooms with a fireplace.

    Had a blast skiing in the area, super close to the airport. Loved the convenience of the private parking, such a thrilling experience!

    Oh, who needs air-conditioning in a hot summer night? Sleeping in a sauna is just what I needed.

    The location was perfect, just a short walk to the shrine where the autumn festival is held, the Old Town, and main shrine. The beds were exceptionally comfortable and the room had climate control. The neighborhood was quiet and peaceful. The shared bathroom was clean. The hotel offered excellent value for the price.
