It was cozy. The facilities were clean. The owner is very nice, helpful and accommodating. The best part is they offer a free ride to and from the bus station and the inn. You just have to inform them beforehand. The owner told me that they have been living in Shirakawa-go all their lives and that they built the inn DIY. It was impressive.

Located in the extraordinary village of Shirakawa, this ryokan surprised me for the very elaborated breakfasts and dinners. Guests are allowed to visit the thermal baths inside the hotel, which face the river Sho. I highly recommend this place.

This historical house is very well maintained by the lovely host who was very helpful and nice to chat with. You have access to modern amenities (wifi, new bathroom, washing machine) We slept very well and felt comfortable on our two night stay - there is a good feeling about this home. The location is best reached by rental car. There are pretty walks locally in the rice fields and forest. Dinner and breakfast was delicious and made with local ingredients. You can also buy goat milk icecream during your stay :-) Hot tea is always available, our host was very accommodating of vegetarians too. I will return one day!

Staff all have been excellent, I stayed 2 nights, when I was leaving the weather warmed up and roads became slippery, staff offered free car driving me to the bus stop, ver sweet! The price is very good, foods are well presented and very good in cold weather, enjoyed so much, I am staying in shirakawago tonight, price is very high! Suggest anyone heading this way to stay at kaminashi, even transport is not great but if you plan well you will enjoy. You can take bus from takayama to shirakawago and visit for lesser than 2 hours, get on heritage bus ( prepare some cash, even they said you can use credit card, but I took five times , 3 you can, other 2 cash only!) stop to visit suganuma ( there are lockers at bus stop only 100en), get on heritage bus again and stop at kaminashi to get to this hotel; next day get heritage bus to visit ainokura ( coin lockers at bus stop too), then get on heritage bus and head to takaoka or shin takaoka! Best trip!

Everything was great. Comfortable stay. Japanese style dinner and breakfast (Kaiseki) was delicious. Great strong coffee in the morning was also great especially since I'm a coffee drinker. Also many varieties of tea to choose from for those who prefer tea. Great view of the mountains once the dense morning fog lifted. Recommended for those who want to have a real Japanese style experience.

A fantastic stay in. 140y old house that has been beautifully maintained and modernised by several generations. From the greeting, to the incredible food experience (dinner & breakfast), the bedroom , private onsen and the private tour at the observatory with the dad. I can only recommend others to have this experience !

Very nice onsen, shared bathroom exceeded expectations. Friendly staff and great location, not too far from bus station. The dinner set meal was incredible! 20 different items and elegantly displayed for a 6:30pm service.

Our time in Shirakawago was great.

Our time in Shirakawago was great. If travelling to Shirakawago in winter please be aware the paths around the village and up to the lookout are treacherous!! We recommend that you wear spikes on your shoes/boots. We saw numerous people falling over and some suffered injuries. You have been warned. You will not experience Shirakawago on your own, a plethora of tourist buses arrive each day so the village is very busy. A magical place nonetheless. We recommend staying at onyado yuinosho was a great hotel.

Partition rooms no sound proof can hear neighbours walking and talking. As u go in the room feel like go army camp🤣, after check out u have to take out bedsheet, blanket liner and pillow case for them. The advantage is they provide tru & fro shuttle service to station. Is ok for me just 1 night.

1 day experience is perfect.

1 day experience is perfect. The tourist site can be done in a few hours if your arrive before noon. Next is to enjoy a good hotel stay with onsen and their gourmet dinner onsite from late afternoon to night. Follow by breakfast and leave to next destination. There is a storage place next to the bus terminal if you have luggage to store for a few hours and check out tourist venue next to it before heading to the hotel. We chose to ship our large luggage from Tokyo to Kyoto via the Family Mart or Yamato shipping services from Tokyo.

It has beautiful views of the snow, river, mountains and of course the thatched roof houses. The air is fresh but it is difficult to find a restaurant because they close early. It is boring at night. It would be better if visitors just go to Shirakawa for a day trip and stay at Takayama.
