Takayama Quán trọ

Ưu điểm: The dinner and breakfast were super delicious, fresh and neat. The views from the windows in the bedroom and the restaurant were unbeatable! The interior design was so beautiful with the sense of traditional japanese style. All the staffs were nice and friendly. The location was great, very close to shinhotaka ropeway station and the bus stop.

Khuyết điểm: The water draining in the bathroom didn't work well.

Ưu điểm: The room was spatious compared to hotels in Tokyo or Kyoto. Fabulous amazing dinner (tasting menu) and excellent breakfast (we had the half board). The location, next to the ropeway, is great if you want to hike in a paradisiac alpine landscape. Many trekking trails available on the area. The onsen of the hotel is just stunning, with the snowy mountain peaks on the background.

Khuyết điểm: The room was a bit dated. It is an expensive hotel, for a 3 stars hotel, but it is worth it (the food is a MUST)

Ưu điểm: The outdoor onsen is absolutely amazing The indoor onsen is sulphur onsen and is quite special. The staff at restaurant was great. The male staff bows every time a dish is served. Hotel has plenty of amenities giving the hotel is inside the mountainous area. The room is spacious and cozy.

Khuyết điểm: Slightly inconvenient for lack of water dispenser inside the onsen

Ưu điểm: Dinner was fantastic, included grilled Hida beef. Outdoor onsen had glimpse of the snow capped Mt. Hotaka. Nice classy lobby interior.

Khuyết điểm: Nothing much else around the hotel (except the ropeway station up to Mt Hotaka)

Ưu điểm: Gorgeous setting against the Japanese Alps. Large comfortable modern type hotel with extensive lobby. Excellent dinner and breakfast, served in a common dining area with views outside, which was very nice. Not a lot of hiking in area near hotel.

Ưu điểm: Big comfortable room with private open air hot spring. Walking distance to the ropeway station. Very attentive front desk staff helped us to book local tour. We especially appreciate hotel's willingness to prepare a vegetarian meal for us. It was delicious! Thank you and we are looking forward to staying there again.

Ưu điểm: The room is clean, onsen is very good and perfect outdoor.

Khuyết điểm: Dinner is quite expensive.

Ưu điểm: I loved the 2 Michelin Star 9 course dinner and massive breakfast spread included in the price. The onsen was very relaxing and refreshing and the contrast between the hot water and the freezing snow was serene. It was right next door to the Hotaka ropeway and the traditional Japanese styled room was spacious and clean.

Khuyết điểm: I didn't really have any issue with the stay itself, the onsen being sulfur based permeates a smell throughout the hotel, but you get used to it pretty quickly and it doesn't detract from the experience at all.

Ưu điểm: The view, the onsen, the proximity to the ropeway, very comfy bed

Khuyết điểm: The rooms were a bit dated

Ưu điểm: Friendly family run. Beautiful quiet location and views

Khuyết điểm: No food available

Ưu điểm: Great hospitality, free pick up from train station.

Khuyết điểm: Breakfast should be offered as optional. I paid for a twin room for myself. The breakfast was enormous and very traditional Japanese. We would have glady shared a breakfast between the two of us. When we went to check-out we were charged 25.00 per day for my daughters breakfast. In the end with those charges we could have stayed at a much nicer hotel in town. The owners need to put money back into the rooms. The decor was very old, out dated, fresh painting and putting in newer furnishings could go a long way.

Ưu điểm: The room and bathroom had everything we needed with fresh towels provided daily. There is also free parking available on site. The staff kindly gave us a coupon book with discounts at many of the tourist sights in Takayama. (By the way, I found Hida no Sato to be a superb attraction. The open-air museum is constructed in a wonderful setting with plenty of interesting information about the traditional lifestyle and architecture in the region.)

Khuyết điểm: The location is a bit far from Takayama city center and there isn't too much around within walking distance. (This may be a particular problem for those without a car.) The room is also a bit small and my husband and I often found ourselves having to move out of each other's way!

Ưu điểm: - Breakfast (lots of food) - People - Room was cleaned well

Khuyết điểm: - Bugs in the room on arrival (we kicked them out of the window) - Beds were hard

Ưu điểm: The setting was absolutely gorgeous. Free use of massage chair. Breakfast was included. Nice room and managed to find a bike for me to use. Free coffee in the lounge area. I was lucky because the family are Chinese, so I had a chance to practice my Chinese, although the husband and wife do speak English. Dropped me off at the station for free and offered to take me into town. Apart from adding taxi fee onto the price, it is great value for money.

Khuyết điểm: Breakfast was a little strange, a combination of Chinese, Japanese and Western, but filling and tasty. I didn't realise that they also did other meals, for a fee, suggest they let guest know about this option. Biggest problem is the location - as others have mentioned, the bus is infrequent and the area is too hilly for riding a bike, so must take a taxi (2,200 yen one way). There is nothing around in terms of shops etc and the main area of Takayama is about 5km away. Suggest they offer free pick up from station at least. Without a car it is very expensive to travel around and there is nothing to see in the area directly around their house.
