Hotels in Takayama

"A classic grand resort. The service was professional, and both the dining and accommodation facilities were excellent. Here are two tips for fellow Chinese travelers: 1. The hotel provides a regular shuttle bus service to Takayama Station (which also houses the Nohi Bus Terminal for long-distance routes). A schedule is available (often displayed or provided by the hotel), and the ride takes about 8 minutes one-way. The pick-up/drop-off point at the station is on the north side (easily accessible from the central overhead walkway – just walk to the north end, take the escalator down, and it's right outside). Utilizing this schedule makes getting around Takayama incredibly convenient. Most major attractions are located about 500 meters south of the station, on both sides of the river. 2. You absolutely must experience the large hot spring baths on the hotel's 7th and 5th floors. They're free, available daily, exceptionally high-quality, and impeccably clean. Each floor boasts four distinct outdoor baths. Access is via the 6th-floor bath entrance, then guests are directed to either the 7th or 5th floor according to the daily rotation. (The baths on the 7th and 5th floors are gender-separated and alternate daily, but the facilities themselves are identical). If you visit early right after dinner, you'll often find it almost empty, essentially giving you a private onsen experience."

"The hotel is right next to the JR station, they also have a private parking, it is first come first service basis. There is also a small shop at the lobby area selling local products. Staffs were very welcoming. The public bath was spacious, the only down side was, there were A LOT of foreigners. Most of them has NO MANNERS in the public bath area. Some didn't take shower before going in the bath, some talking really loudly in their language, well, we could hear them clearly still; some soak their towels and long hair in the water. I really couldn't stand, I couldn't enjoy the bath at all. If you were looking for a calm retreat, this is not the place. We changed to another hotel the next day. I understand Japanese doesn't like confrontation, however, they have to do something to make sure, other guests could also enjoy their stay, and public bathing is so much about Japanese culture too, they shall educate people to respect their culture. Back to the hotel facility, room was very spacious and clean. The view was nice too from the top floor foot bath area. Breakfast was great too, they provide both western and Japanese options, it was tasty."

"I never imagined I'd experience something like this during a hotel stay in Japan. We stayed for three days, heading out early and returning late each day as we were doing day trips to Kamikochi and Shirakawa-go. When we returned on the evening of the second day, a white piece of clothing I had left on the bed that morning was missing. My wife and I searched through all our suitcases, but it was the only item missing; everything else was accounted for. After thinking it over, my personal guess is that because it was a pure white garment, the same color as the bath towels, the housekeeping staff might have mistaken it for a used towel and removed it. I immediately contacted the hotel's front desk. However, due to the late hour, the front desk informed me that all the housekeepers had already finished their shifts. They simply took down the details and promised to investigate and follow up the next day. However, the next day, they never proactively followed up. When I went to the front desk to inquire again, I happened to speak with the same staff member. He merely apologized, but his demeanor made it clear they hadn't found it and had no solution. There was no mention of contacting me if it reappeared or offering any compensation. It was, in short, just a verbal apology without any concrete resolution. While it wasn't a valuable item, for a hotel to lose a guest's possession and then handle the situation in such a manner is extremely unprofessional. Ultimately, to avoid letting it spoil the rest of our trip, we just had to chalk it up to bad luck."

"The hotel has nice rooms with fascinating view on the town. Rooms are clean and pretty big with needed amenities. The hotel has really nice onsen with water from the local hot spring, sauna and a nice spot for town and neighborhood observing. The hotel is pretty near the railway and bus stations, moreover it’s about 10 minutes walk for main historic part of Takayama. 酒店房间漂亮，可以欣赏到迷人的城镇景色。房间干净宽敞，设施齐全。酒店拥有很棒的温泉，水源来自当地温泉，还有桑拿房，是观察城镇和周边环境的好地方。酒店离火车站和汽车站很近，步行约10分钟即可到达高山的主要历史街区。"

"Although there's a shuttle bus, it's quite infrequent. Thankfully, Takayama is small, so a taxi ride only costs around 600 yen. Breakfast offered a good variety of choices. However, the onsen was quite disappointing; it felt like the water was diluted. Overall, the service was excellent! It was rather inconvenient to have to bring our own towels down to the onsen. Plus, the outdoor onsen on the ground floor is open to the public, which felt a bit odd."

"I recently enjoyed a fantastic staycation at a hotel featuring a beautiful onsen, and it was exactly what I needed! From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with warm hospitality and a serene atmosphere. The onsen was a highlight of my stay—immersing myself in the soothing hot springs while surrounded by nature was incredibly rejuvenating. The hotel’s environment is simply stunning, offering a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life. I took long walks in the nearby gardens, which were beautifully maintained and provided a peaceful backdrop for relaxation. One thing to note is the parking fee of 1100 yen per night ( from 2pm) , which I found reasonable considering the convenience. Overall, this staycation was a delightful experience, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking to unwind and enjoy some tranquility. I can’t wait to return for another relaxing getaway!"

"The location is incredibly convenient, just a 300-meter walk from both JR Takayama Station and the Nohi Bus Terminal. What's amazing is that despite being so close, it's not noisy at all. It's an easy stroll even with luggage, which is a huge plus for travelers transferring. The hotel is quite new, and the lobby boasts an artistic design, making it a great spot for photos. The rooms are equipped with a table and chairs, and feel much more spacious compared to hotels in Japan's larger cities. It's also convenient to walk to the old town and popular sights for dining. If you head in the opposite direction, there's a large supermarket easily accessible via an underpass. The front desk staff were exceptionally friendly and attentive. They even helped me resolve some minor issues I encountered during my trip, which was incredibly thoughtful. Check-in is from 3 PM, and you can store your luggage on the ground floor beforehand."

"I didn't feel this hotel offered good value for money. A twin room for two nights without breakfast cost over 1400, and with breakfast for two days, it came to around 1700. The room was tiny; there wasn't even enough space to fully open a suitcase. It was quite impressive, though, that they managed to squeeze a small table and two small armchairs into such a cramped space. The location is decent, about a 7-minute walk from Takayama Station. Their main draw was supposed to be a hot spring (onsen), but there was only one pool, and it reeked of chlorine. It felt more like a common public bathhouse than a true onsen. Breakfast was okay; the Hida beef patties on the first day were quite tasty. The hotel was packed with Westerners; at breakfast, it seemed almost everyone was foreign."

"Extremely satisfied! When traveling, value for money is paramount, and this hotel truly delivers. It's not only conveniently located but also warm and comfortable, especially with the cooking facilities. Though we didn't use the washing machine, its presence was a comforting touch. 1. The bus stop is right downstairs, making for a smooth, unhurried 5-minute walk to catch your bus. 2. Despite being next to the train tracks, the soundproofing is excellent. 3. The drying rack on the balcony was incredibly useful; our clothes dried faster here than at any other hotel during our trip. 4. The kitchen is fully equipped, which is absolutely perfect for travelers. 5. Both Jinya and the market are just a pleasant 10-minute walk away. 6. I recommend requesting a room on the 3rd floor or higher for unobstructed views from the double rooms. 7. Just a 5-minute downhill walk to the left of the hotel brings you to a Boss Supermarket, stocked with all sorts of groceries. The Hida beef, sushi, and sashimi, in particular, were incredibly affordable! 8. The Miyagawa Morning Market, however, was a major disappointment – as is often the case with overly touristy spots, it lacked genuine appeal!"

"Checked in late around 22:00 & nobody was at reception , have to go through the hassel with machine. Location was 15min walk to morning market. Hotel is new, well equipped with washing machine & other cooling utensils, However room was heavily smell & couldn’t clear off till we checked out Room rate was nearly Yen30,000 for 3pax, room only without breakfast, which we think at the high side"
