Loved everything about this ryokan! Hospitable staff that spoke english well, great public onsen with open air tub, room was clean and cozy and just a minute walk from takayama old town.

Great location - 6min walk from Takayama JR station. Beautiful ryokan decor with tea area, spacious room. Team of ladies managing the ryokan were very welcoming, my partner and I were offered our daily kimonos for our stay and slippers. Staff that came in the tatami style rooms to put together the sleeping mattresses and duvets were very fast and efficient. Mattresses and duvets were very comfortable. Separate men/women onsen, both include internal bath and small tubs in the external part. We ordered the kaiseki dinner and breakfast - which we absolutely recommend, ingredients were very fresh and healthy. Good wifi for everyday internet browsing (not sure about streaming as we didn't do that during our stay) Good temperature in the room. Kindly stored our luggage when we arrived earlier than check-in times and when our train was after check-out times.

The room was clean and had all required amenities. The location is superb, on a central street next to bars and restaurants. The cooler had Japanese beer which was really refreshing. The hosts were excellent, very polite and helpful. They also gave us some souvenirs as gifts. The breakfast, served directly to the room is a great experience on its own.

The room was great the staff was great. The location is amazing - so close to everything!! I love the onsen the most! Overall it was a good stay.

The ryokan was very clean and comfortable. Staff were very friendly and efficient. We had the Japanese dinner and breakfast in our room , which was very nice. The location was excellent, within a few hundred metres of the old houses and shops just across the river.

Nice quiet ryokan with private bathroom facilities with choice of inclusive or non inclusive meals.

The room was clean and well-taken care of. The staff will come into the room in the evening to set the futons on the floor. They were professional and efficient and it was an interesting experience to watch them at work. There was a snack provided for each person on each of the two days we were there. From the moment we stepped onto the property to the moment we left, we were warmly welcome by all the staff there. We did not encounter any difficulties with regards to a language barrier. We also met a sprightly elderly lady, perhaps the owner of the ryokan, who was very enthusiastic about Takayama and making her guests feel welcome.

All staff in the hotel is very friendly. I arrive earlier before check in time, the staff help me keep the luggage in the hotel, when the room is ready, they will help us move the luggage into the room. This hotel is in a central of town and have a good location, it near all the attractions area, that why very difficult to look for parking, but the hotel have private parking lot. In this hotel, we have dinner (Kaiseki cuisine) in the room, it let us feel like dinner at home, dinner is fantastic. After dinner, we go out for a walk, when we come back, the tatami bed is already set up by the staff. The spa is fantastic and very clean, and I saw the spa wash in the morning. I have a very good Japanese style experience in this hotel.

Great ryokan experience. Very nice staff, highlight of the stay was the lady serving us dinner.

Staying at this Ryokan was such a lovely experience from start to finish. The beautiful building and traditional rooms. The staff were friendly and forever trying to please. The dinner and breakfast served in your room is so special. Food great. Easy walking distance to all beautiful sights. Highly recommend. Bath beautiful!
