Excellent value for money. Staff was very nice, room was great, the only downside is the shared bathroom. Onsen was nice to have, breakfast was quite good, location is great for the Hida Folk Village but slightly suboptimal for Takayama proper - but better than most in the area, anyway.

Outside onsen was sort of small, and somewhat less warm than would be ideal.

This is a great traditional Japanese hotel. The onsen is very nice with a cute (though small) outdoor area and a bunch of showers. Our room was on the second floor so we had a bathroom and sink on our floor, then bathed in the onsens downstairs. The dinner here is incredible!!! You get to wear your Japanese robe and they serve an amazing variety of delicious Japanese foods! Definitely plan a dinner here. This hotel is walking distance to the Hida Folk Village, which was perfect.

This hotel is not very close to other restaurants Not a bad thing, just an important FYI- If you want to eat breakfast or dinner at the hotel, you need to let them know well before the meal. They asked us about breakfast at check in, and we booked dinner the night before.

Very close to Hida no sato and a few minutes from Takayama station. The rooms are spotless and the attention to the customer is impeccable. The Onsen (one male and one female) of an excellent standard. We had the opportunity to have dinner and breakfast at the property. Great food and impeccable presentation. We also used the shuttle service (kindly provided even outside the established time). Truly impeccable services.

Nothing.

A very nice ryokan with a decent onsen. Recommend trying their breakfast menu (for an additional fee) as it was very tasty and offered a nice intro to traditional Japanese eating. The ryokan is a bit further away from the city (around 2 km), but very close to the Hida Folk Village where you can get a bus to the city center during the Village's opening hours.

- lovely traditional Japanese guesthouse - it was great to experience a traditional Japanese breakfast - the guesthouse is very close to the Hida Folk museum which is really worth a visit - we enjoyed the onsen (although note the public bath is the only bathroom option, no single showers). - the family was kind enough to drive us back to the station in the morning!

- we really enjoyed the accommodation but one needs to know it is a bit far from Takayama town centre (about 30 minutes walking) and there aren’t many restaurants around it. Maybe better to book the diner when one doesn’t want to walk back to town in the evening!

I loved the authentic feel of this place. It wasn’t downtown, therefore it wasn’t walking distance to everything. But for one night stay in town, it was perfect. We arrived into town at 5pm and took a taxi for 1000y to the property. They were waiting for us and dinner was ready. We enjoyed the onsen and went to bed. We woke up in the morning and started our day at the folk Hida Village, which is a 3mins walk. Then we took the bus into town and spent the entire day in town and then left on an evening train. After spending several nights in Tokyo, Osaka and Kyoto in busy places. The calm, serene feeling was a nice change of scenery.

Great ryokan with clean rooms and beautiful onsen. The staff were very kind and the food was exquisite, whether breakfast or dinner. Slightly far by foot from the station but there is a local bus that stops accross the street. Very good value for money, highly recommended.

We stayed here for 1 night during the Takayama Spring Festival , it was one of the few hotels with a room available during this very busy time in Takayama. Turned out to be a great stay. A short walk to Hilda Folk Village. A traditional ryokan with onsen which we tried for the first time and enjoyed the experience. We caught the bus from the city centre to get there. They provided a free shuttle back into Takayama the next morning.

Since the arrival to the Ryokan, the staff was friendly and kind. The place was magic and beautiful, and make you feel part of the traditional japanese culture. The room was very big, bright and nice. The onsen was relaxing and helped us to release the tireness from our trip. The dinner and breakfast were delicious and impressed us with their beautiful presentation. We highly recomend this ryokan which will make you live a unique experience!

The room we got was spacious and clean, also the view was great. There was toilet and shower in the room even if there’s shared onsen which was very clean and cozy. The view from the outdoor bath was very cute. The welcome snack was delicious, so the breakfast. That’s one of the most delicious miso I’ve ever had!

It’s about 30 minute walk from Takayama station and there was snow, so it’s quite scary to walk. But the place was so nice, so worth the walk.
