“Loved it! The room was really beautiful! The personal there was amazing! Really really nice! And the breakfast was magnificent! Great great deal! :) ”

“Wish we had stayed two nights. It was so lovely. The host provided easy detailed instruction for getting to the property by bus and kindly met us at the bus stop and drove us to the property (it would have only been a 3 minute walk - but still the gesture was very kind). He also drove us to the rope way in the morning. The baths both indoor and out door were so nice - and private! The meals were also excellent - I recommend getting the dinner and breakfast. There is a convenience store very near (we got some beers there), but nothing else around. Still regret not staying two nights. Hope to visit again.” Read more

“This was the highlight of our Japan trip! You get wonderful views fron your window, affordable and oishi Japanese traditional meals, and best of all Mr. Takizawa's very personalized and warm accomodation! We were surprised that he was already waiting for us at the bus stop. I booked his property hours before getting there, but he was kind enough to fetch us from the bus stop even if I have not replied to his email. He also brought us to our next destination (Shinhotaka Ropeway) using his car! By far, this is the best accomodation I've had during our Japan trip. Arigato, Mr. Takizawa! ” Read more

“This ryokan was a highlight of our trip to Japan. The rooms are large, comfortable, and cozy. There are 4 onsen baths (2 inside and 2 outside) and you can use any of the baths with others in your party. Unlike some onsens they are not segregated by gender, they are all private. The onsens are warm but not too hot (42-44C), especially the outside ones, which are beautiful. We had both dinner and breakfast - the meals were amazing and I highly recommend doing both. The staff were lovely and helpful, they helped us figure out the buses back to Takayama and (when they saw us looking sleepy waiting for our bus) kindly brought us coffee. I cannot recommend this ryokan highly enough. ” Read more

“The place is amazing! The scenery, the beautiful outdoors private onsens and the delicious meals (both breakfast & dinner). The staff were all very helpful and nice, and the price was more than fair...”

“The owner and staff of the Minshuku Takizawa were immensely kind and hospitable - at check out the owner also walked and guided me to my bus stop. They made it a highlight of my trip - on top of that the Hida Beef dinner was scrumptious and the outdoor private onsen was perfect after a long day of walking. Definitely will be cherishing and remembering my stay here for a while.” Read more

“This is really the best of my trip in Japan. The traditional Japanese style, the hospitality and the food was excellent.”

“Honestly just worth it for the incredible multi course Japanese meal, some of the best food I had my whole trip. Then there were the four private onsens, and the beautiful area and the big rooms.”

“The palace itself and the location (far from everything) Dinner and breakfast are a fun experience. Onsen were nice”

“Great setting away in the mountains, very typical ryokan with 4 private hot spring spas. The dinner was delicious and very reasonably priced. The staff were great”
