Hidatakayama Futarishizuka Hakuun
4.3/521 Reviews

Hidatakayama Futarishizuka Hakuun

Takayama|0.48km from Takayama Shōwa-kan Museum
I stayed for 2 nights for the Takayama matsuri, so prices were obviously not bargain rates. I wanted to experience a traditional ryokan, and the Futarishizuka definitely fits the bill - sleeping on a futon (surprisingly comfortable) on a tatami mat floor, sliding screen doors. The hotel is a little tired e.g. the fittings such as the washbasin/vanity unit in my room were definitely showing their age. The main tatami bedroom had a low (sittinng on the floor with backrest) Japanese chair and low table by the TV, and the smaller room with a little wardrobe and vanity unit also had a couple of Western chairs and table, and fine views over the city. There was a kettle, teapot (green tea but no hojicha, and a cookie), and TV in the room. My room also had a separate toilet (Japanese technotoilet) and a little bathroom with bathtub which I didn't use as I prefered the onsen experience. I was very glad of the quilted jacket provided along with the cotton yukata as it was a bit chilly my first evening and when I went down to breakfast the next morning. (More guests at breakfast were wearing the yukatas than every day clothes). I had breakfast at the ryokan but not dinner. The first day the breakfast was very Japanese (grilled fish, various vegetables, pickles, rice, miso, an egg (cold but not totally uncooked - the white was white) which I wasn't sure what to do with so mixed it in with my rice) plus some fruit. I'm not sure if the brown beans in goo was the infamous natto (the ”Marmite” divisive Japanese breakfast food item) as the flavour wasn't that strong. There is a coffee machine in the lobby as well as tea served with breakfast. The second day the breakfast was more fusion - one dish with simmering tofu in broth, another with more Western style ham, fried egg and a couple of bits of wiener type sausage, plus various random salady items, rice and tea. I didn't get to experience the outdoor onsen, only the indoor one. (They switch the red noren curtain (ladies) and blue one (men's) between the 2 changing room entrances, one for indoors and one for outdoors). The indoor onsen has 2 ”pot baths” which were a lovely temperature, and a square one (a bit hot for me). The hotel is up a bit of a steep hill, but they offer a shuttle minibus service to and from the station for guests. I'd recommending bringing a sleep eye mask (the one from your airplane amenity kit) as it got quite light quite early (no modern heavy blackout curtains in the room). Don't expect a modern designer boutique hotel, but enjoy a taste of traditional Japanese hospitality.
Hoshokaku

Hoshokaku

Takayama|0.48km from Takayama Shōwa-kan Museum
Takayama was easily the best place we visited during our entire visit to Japan. We stayed 2 nights in a Japanese style room with a private outdoor bath and dinner and breakfast. The room was absolutely beautiful - so spacious, clean, and luxurious, with all the amenities we could have needed. The outdoor bath was heavenly, and the view from the balcony was the icing on the cake. It was lovely to come back from dinner and have our futons laid out for us. If you’re looking for a truly traditional Japanese dining experience then look no further. We had a private dining booth, and the food was served in small courses. The food itself was very different to what we’re used to, and it was quite intimidating! But the staff did a good job at explaining what everything was and how to eat it. We were concerned that we might have communication issues since Hoshokaku is away from the big cities, and we weren’t sure how prominent English would be here. But the staff spoke the clearest English of any other accommodation we stayed at. They were so attentive all the time that we almost felt like royalty. We’re already planning to stay again when we next visit Japan! One last thing I’d like to mention is to address concerns in previous reviews about smoking in the building. I think this must be something which has completely changed; we didn’t get a whiff of smoke anywhere in the building. The entire place was immaculate and honestly a joy to wander around in.

Itomori
4.6/51 Reviews
This is a beautiful self contained apartment on 2 levels. Downstairs is a bathroom/shower and living area. Upstairs a bedroom with a small terrace. Access is by door code supplied by the owner or in our case Booking.com. Unfortunately guests in the other apartment had not been given the door code by their booking agent and did not speak English or Japanese. Fortunately we were able to phone the owner for them. Definitely a communication problem by their booking agent or a language issue by the owner. The apartment is very ''Japanese'' in the sense that the bed is only about 1 foot off the ground. The lounge was also low and uncomfortable and the dining table was so low that it could not be eaten off nor used for a computer. This was extremely annoying. There was also not a single chair in the apartment. Overall even though immaculate the apartment was poorly designed. The kitchen was huge but nowhere to sit and eat!! After we had booked we sought to contact the owners to extend our booking but they had no English language skills at all and we had a frustrating series of emails back which did not help. As we could not stay an extra night (it was festival weekend) we then needed to move to another hotel for a single night whereas we would have preferred to stay at ItoMori.

Hotel Wood Takayama
4.7/549 Reviews
My favorite hotel in Takayama. The hotel has a sense of design, good service, clean bath (but small) and a lot of Hida pure milk ice cream to eat. There are soft drinks available all day, and you can also try more than a dozen kinds of sake for free. The breakfast is delicious and beautiful. There are also many Hida drinks and milk dairy products to drink. Later we lived in Takayama Sakura. When we wanted to have a drink after the soup at night and found that there was no lemonade at the front desk, we sighed that if we were in wood in this climate, we must have started drinking soft drinks.
Takayama City Hotel Four Seasons
4.1/58 Reviews
Convenient location ~ Located about ten minutes near the Nongfei bus stop, the street is very good along the way There are restaurants, handwritten letters and specialty shops The most important thing is that all the staff are very helpful. I am very troublesome to ask them to help send the luggage to another hotel in Kanazawa. They also super helpful super grateful ~ I just chose the cheapest room type, so the room is not very special, but everything is complete and a very favorite hotel
Takayama Ninja House
4.7/52 Reviews
Our family of four took children on the trip. The owner warmly received him at the hotel, explaining the sights and food near Takayama, and telling us the transportation route to Shirakawa Township. The room was big and the children lived very happily. The house was located in a very quiet location, away from everything. The sights are very close, and it is easy to walk from JR station. Takayama is really a great destination, and the children also spent some wonderful nights at the Ninja House.
Ryokan Tanabe
4.4/58 Reviews
I like the Tanabe hotel very much. The grandma is very cute. Japanese introduced us to some of the hotel facilities in English. He took us to choose a bathrobe and asked us where we came from. Then I said thank you in Chinese. Then I introduced the hotel wall. The calligraphy on it was written by her dad. Her dad is an artist. It is really great. The grandma in the hotel are all dressed in kimonos. They prepare dinner for us after a busy day and then introduce the menu. The dinner was super rich and we were stunned. It is banquet cuisine. It is richer than kaiseki cuisine. Every dish is exquisite and delicious. The seafood is fresh. There are two or three slices of Hida beef. Did not eat a very special flavor, but the meat is not old, okay, we have a total of four people occupy a room to enjoy this hearty banquet cuisine, beautiful.
