Reviews and Ratings
The hotel provided spacious and comfortable rooms, with friendly and helpful service. It is conveniently located within walking distance to main tourist attractions. The dining experience offered a good variety of international cuisine. The facilities were well-maintained and enjoyable.
My stay at the hotel was an overall pleasant experience. The rooms were spacious, and I especially enjoyed the outdoor private bath on the top floor. The staff, particularly Archie, was friendly and helpful. The location, while a bit remote from convenience stores and restaurants, was only a short walk from the central station.
During our stay, we found the hotel's rooms to be super comfy and the largest ones we had during our Japan trip. They were a brilliant size and very clean, which was refreshing given the limited choice in Takayama. The staff was really nice and helpful, making our experience even better. However, the location was a bit far from the main attractions of Takayama, although it was near the bus station. The dining options were good with international cuisine and a generous selection of dishes, but the facilities lacked storage space for unpacked clothes apart from the coat hangers.
The hotel offers clean and comfortable rooms with a small size but cozy feel. The service is friendly and helpful, making the stay pleasant overall. The convenient location, though not in the center, is close to transport hubs and interesting places. The dining options are good value for money, especially for those seeking fresh and healthy dishes.
The hotel is conveniently located, not far from Takayama Train station, with easy access to main attractions. The rooms, though a bit small, are comfortable and clean. The friendly service and convenient location make it a great choice for a stay in Takayama.
The hotel is nicely located in Takayama-Shi, allowing for easy walking access to the old parts of town. However, it comes at a higher price for the service provided. The room was a bit small with limited wardrobe space, giving the feel of an upscale hostel rather than a full-service hotel.
The hotel is bigger than a normal Japanese standard hotel, clean, and comfortable, located near the bus station. However, the limited wardrobe space and absence of staff at the bar give it a feel similar to an upmarket hostel.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were comfortable and spacious, even with useful amenities like power points and USB chargers. I particularly enjoyed the outdoor private bath on the top floor. However, the room rate for the festival felt unjustified as it was the same price as my Tokyo stay.
I found the hotel to be a great value for the money. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, but the pillows were a bit too firm for my liking. The service was top-notch, with friendly and helpful staff, though there was a slight confusion about my guest status initially. The location was convenient, close to the train and bus station with easy access to tourist areas, but it could get noisy when families with children filled the onsen. The dining options were limited to Japanese cuisine, but overall satisfactory and reasonably priced. The onsen on the roof was a nice touch, offering various options for relaxation.
My stay at the hotel exceeded my expectations. The rooms were bigger than I expected, nicely decorated, and very spacious, making it the best we stayed in during our entire trip. The service was outstanding, with friendly and helpful staff, especially Dinkar who went above and beyond to assist me with a lost item. The location was quite convenient, just a 10-minute walk from the train and bus stations, and close to main tourist destinations. The dining experience was generous and reasonably priced. Overall, the hotel provided great value for money.
I had a fantastic stay at this hotel! The rooms were really big, especially for Japanese standards, and they were amazing; the beds were super comfy, and everything was clean. The service was top-notch, with the staff being so helpful and friendly. While the location was not very close to convenience stores or restaurants, the proximity to the station was convenient. The dining experience was good, but it finished a bit early after a long day of exploring. The facilities were also nice, making my stay comfortable and enjoyable.
