ThailandDefinitely the best hotel I've ever been in my whole life (and I've traveled a lot!). The staff is really gentle and they will do everything they can in order to make your stay unforgettable. The facilities are beautiful, clean and make you feel at a true Japanese house. The Onsen bath is delicious and definitely add to the stay!! Location is near the bus/train stations and the main street. If you go to Takayama, make sure to stay at Oyado Koto no Yume, even if it's for one night.

BrazilThe location was perfect. So close to the station and also the main tourist attractions. The free yukatas was a real pleasant surprise. One of the staff helped us all put it on, and they even gave us sweaters to go with them. Would definitely stay here again.

BruneiIt was a charming ryokan ran by a pleasant staff who welcomed you as you came in; offered you tea and some sweets upon your return and assisted you in every way possible. One of the rooms had a higher bed while the other room had traditional Japanese beds both of which were quite comfortable. The ryokan had 3 breakfast sets to choose from which were artistically presented in their dining room and the service was impeccable. It was the staff that made our stay all the more delightful. We highly recommend this ryokan if you want to experience the traditional Japanese way of living.

-
- What's a ryokan?
- A ryokan is a traditional Japanese inn. They usually feature bathhouses, multicourse dinners, communal spaces where guests can relax, and rooms with woven-straw flooring and futon mats. Like hotels, a range of ryokans (from budget to luxury) is available. What originated centuries ago as a free rest house for long-distance travelers has evolved into a popular destination for relaxation surrounded by therapeutic mineral springs.
-
- What are the big differences between a ryokan and a hotel?
- Unlike a hotel, where the guest room is just a place to turn in for the night, a ryokan is more than just a place to sleep. In Japan, many travelers journey long distances to relax in a hot spring bath and feast on a traditional multicourse dinner – staying in a ryokan is an experience in and of itself. These ryokans typically have Japanese-style rooms with woven-straw floors and futon beds (no Western beds and carpeting). You should also remove your shoes at the entrance of the room, or before you enter it. Modern ryokans might serve buffet-style meals in a dining area, while more traditional ryokans tend to serve in-room dinners. Some ryokan rooms have a private bathroom, and others might just have a shared bathroom.
-
- What's a kaiseki meal?
- Kaiseki is the culinary highlight at a ryokan, embodying beautifully presented dishes that delight both the palate and the eyes. Every one of the 10 to 15 dishes that make up the multicourse Japanese dinner is prepared in a way that highlights the unique textures, colors, and flavors of featured seasonal ingredients and local specialties. Most commonly served at special restaurants and ryokans, a traditional kaiseki dinner usually consists of bite-size appetizers, fresh sashimi (raw fish, like sushi), soup, grilled fish or meat, a hot-pot dish, rice with miso soup, and a small dessert.
-
- What's a yukata?
- A yukata is a casual summer kimono or robe, typically made of light cotton. Many ryokans provide guests with yukata robes during their stay. In some areas, it's common to see guests strolling through the neighborhood in their yukatas. The loose-fitting garment is perfect for sleeping and relaxing in.
-
- How should I wear a yukata?
- First, put your arms through the sleeves like you would with a robe. Take the right side of the yukata and wrap it across your body. Then, take the left side and wrap it over the right, making sure that the robe is level at your ankles. Pinning the yukata closed on the right side, wrap the sash around your waist a couple of times and then tie a bow. Generally, the bow is tied around the waist for women, and the hips for men.
-
- What's a Japanese hot spring (onsen)?
- Onsen (literally "hot spring") is a term often used to refer to both the mineral-rich hot springs and the bathing facilities that house them. Whether the bath is public or private, gender-segregated or mixed, indoor or outdoor, soaking and unwinding in the soothing geothermal waters at an onsen is a millennia-old custom deeply embedded in Japanese culture.
-
- What's standard bathing etiquette?
- At a bathhouse—onsen or not—guests are expected to remove all clothing in their respective changing rooms before entering the bathing area. As a common courtesy, once inside the bathing area, guests should wash and rinse their bodies thoroughly before quietly stepping into the hot water. Whether you relax in solitude or converse softly with others is up to you, but guests should always be mindful of others. Wash towels are often used to cover one’s private areas while walking around. However, note that you should not put towels in the water.
-
- Why are tattoos not allowed?
- While tattoos have become more popular among Japan's youth, many Japanese people still associate them with outlaws and organized crime. Nowadays, not all businesses ban customers with tattoos, but you might still be refused admission to bathhouses and swimming pools. Small tattoos can be covered up using waterproof bandaids, but keep in mind that each property has the final say on what’s acceptable.
This is our guests' favorite part of Takayama, according to independent reviews.
Couples in particular like the location – they rated it 9.4 for a two-person trip.

Host Review Score
Located just 2 min walk from Takayama station and Bus Center. The best place to stay to wander around in Takayama.
Main attractions like old town and Miyagawa morning market are 10 min on foot.
Our Japanese-style guest rooms are tatami floored and cozily equipped with a sofa/chairs, coffee maker and air purifier.
I was born and raised in Takayama, love the city for its beauty, and would like to share all the charms that makes it special.
The Japanese garden in front of our Ryokan is neatly trimmed by myself.
We have a selection of yukata, light kimono, that you can pick up upon checking in.
You can walk around in town in it during summer time.
