This is likely the grandest hotel with the best views along the Nagara River, a true five-star property. The rooms are quite spacious; river-facing rooms offer views of Gifu Castle, while those on the other side overlook the stadium. It was undoubtedly the best value-for-money hotel I stayed at during this trip to Japan.
The hotel is very nice, located in the mountains, quiet and peaceful. The riverside park nearby is very large and well maintained. The room is large in Japan, the price is reasonable, and you can soak in the hot spring at night, which is very comfortable. However, you can only drive here by yourself, it is very inconvenient to get here without a car.
One of the best I have experienced with ryokan staying. I love a small hotel/inn as it is not crowded. This place answers my expectations.
Its location is a bit far off but it is not an issue. It is accessible by public bus from Takayama. Each room has private onsen. It also has 2 outdoor, private onsen on first-come-first-serve basis. There are also public baths for male and female.
Room was in good condition. Bathroom is a bit small for me. Only complaint I would have was foot step noise from the room on upper floor. Very annoyed.
Food was great. I stayed 2 nights, the hotel provided 2 different types of food - appreciated.
Highway recommended.
Check in very convenient when we arrived about 8pm, the staff are very friendly, helpful and speaking English. Takayama Bus Center and JR Takayama station only 5 minutes walk. Check some day tour that available from Takayama Bus Center which is very easy to join. Many restaurants nearby and souvenir shops at the main street. Big room and more than enough space to put our 2 big luggage. A bit unstable hot water from the shower but overall is no complaint and we have a pleasant stay at this hotel.
The assigned room was not the one I booked. Instead of East Wing with a mountain view, I got assigned to South Wing, not sure if it is a mountain view but definitely not what I expected (I will attach a photo). But generally, I still had a fantastic experience there. The location is great for me because it is near Shinhotaka Ropeway. The open air onsen was beautiful, I liked it a lot, and went every night. The food was fantastic too! I am not well versed with Japanese food culture, but basically it was the traditional course meal (only dinner) you probably will have in a decent Japanese restaurant. I am a vegetarian, the hotel is prepared for my diet every breakfast and dinner. I must say I am really amazed with their food culture and knife skill. Their front desk was helpful with my needs too like a nail cutter, plaster etc.
What a satisfying trip! The duplex room had a living room on the lower level and a bedroom, bathroom, and open-air bath on the upper level, fulfilling my long-held dream of staying in a duplex. The hotel was huge, with public baths on the 2nd and 8th floors respectively. Both were large and very comfortable to soak in, but the open-air bath in the room was even more convenient and relaxing, especially in the morning while enjoying the view – a wonderful experience. The room was fully equipped. Dinner was arranged at the Western restaurant, and my husband said the sound system there was incredibly expensive. Breakfast was a buffet, mainly Japanese-style, which didn't quite suit our tastes.
We specifically chose Suimeikaku for our Gero Onsen trip, and it truly lives up to its reputation as one of the best onsen hotels. The grounds are expansive, featuring three distinct hot spring baths, each with its unique charm – and we tried them all! Our room was spacious and boasted a scenic balcony. The in-room bathroom also had a large bathtub. We enjoyed our kaiseki dinner in the privacy of our own room, and the service from the staff was incredibly attentive. My only slight critique would be that the cuisine was a bit ordinary. A nice touch is that the hotel offers a shuttle service to the station, which, even though we didn't use it, is definitely a plus.
