Breakfast was mostly traditional Japanese with some western inclusions. It was fresh and well displayed. Kitchen staff were checking the buffet and rearranging platters to make the food appealing, and replenishing when needed. I thought the breakfast was great. The room was a bit small but had quality inclusions. I liked that there was a full size lounge to sit on.

It was a shame we couldn’t have dinner at the hotel, but I forgot make a reservation. There were tables available, so perhaps the hotel could remind guests just before their stay that they need to make a reservation if they wish to have dinner at the hotel’s restaurant. This is more a suggestion.

Very polite service throughout from check in to check out. Thoughful in loaning us futon mats for our Kagura show. Breakfast was decent.Parking is mainly at the back though there are plenty of lots. A back door to the hotel from the csrpark would be nice instead of having to walk along the driveway. We thought we had left a pouch of our memory cards behind and probably sounded a but grouchy later that evening after we had checked out when we called to enquire but the staff on the line were very patient in trying to help. Anyway we found it later on in another bag. Very short stay but can't really complain about anything.

It's a but pricey for the location but all in we think it's worth it.

Every aspect of this accommodation was impressive. The facade is very modern ad was reflected in the dining area, lobby, accommodation floors and the rooms themselves. Nature abounds in the surrounds of this picturesque town. Within walking distance to Takachiho Jinja and the Kagura performance. Best to drive to the gorge from here.

Apart from the gorge and Kagura, not much else in the town itself, however it was quaint. Breakfast staff were a little relaxed at times as they casually chatting amongst themselves in front of guests (not really to be expected in Japan)

The location is perfect- 5 minutes drive from Takachiho gorge and right in the center of the town. The building is new, the parking lot is free and large and the room is very convenient. The overwhelming was the manager of the hotel, Mr. Shibata, who gave us exellent advice and super warm treatment. He was very patient, gave us alot of important information and thanks to him, we've seen all the amazing sites in the area. We hope to come back in the spring :-)

Parking on site. Room was fine - enough room for two of us to have our stuff out. Staff was very nice and accommodating. They have cushions for you to borrow for going to the evening show at the temple, which was a nice touch. There's a grocery store within easy walking distance.

A little bit expensive for what it is, but it seems that this area was overall more expensive, given it is a touristy area.

This was a very nice stay in Takachiho. The staff was very friendly, and gave us recommendations for dinner when we checked in. They even booked a table for us, and the dinner was very good. Our hotel room was cozy, and a bit bigger than usual Japanese hotels. The bed was big and comfortable. An extra bonus was that we could borrow pillows for the Kagura theater in the evening at the nearby temple. The hotel also has a big parking lot where you can stay for free.

This is a great hotel. Very modern and great sized room, well appointed, nice view and a separate toilet. Nice restaurant for buffet breakfast. Recommend the Tomoemaru restaurant down the road. Order by machine the beef set was great.

Arrived at 255 with three people behind the reception desk but wouldn’t allow check in until 300 on the dot. Also only one hard horrible pillow.

This is our favorite hotel in our Kyushu trip. It is a full-serviced hotel. The location is excellent. They had parking spaces available for guests. The staff were very helpful. You must eat dinner and breakfast in their in-house restaurant. The room with tatami mats was amazing. The room had its own small tea table and outdoor area.

Enjoyed staying here during our visit to takachiho gorge - very very clean and comfortable rooms - walkable to the gorge (although the return walk is mostly up some steep inclines). Rooms are small - but still worked for our family of 5! Enjoyed the breakfast buffet, which had both western and Japanese options. Would definitely stay here again for a future visit!

Very good location, helpful staffs.. The breakfast was good as well. Highly recommended!

In the guidebook in the rooms, the word "RENT" was used in the title for the things you can get for FREE from the hotel. It should be " LENT/ borrowable items" instead of "rent " because people can misunderstand..
