2-Star Hotels in Gifu Prefecture, Japan

I stayed here to go to the Toki outlet. The hotel was very clean and I had nothing to say. The hot water in the large bath was a nice temperature and warmed me to the core, so I slept soundly. There were so many restaurants around the hotel that I had a hard time deciding what to eat.

Just a five-minute walk from the JR station, which is super convenient, and right across the street from that famous BBQ restaurant. The room was a decent size, the hotel is quite new, and the facilities and layout are all good. It's very clean and tidy.

The hotel is in an excellent location with great amenities nearby. It's just a bridge away from Miyagawa Morning Market and very close to the old town of Takayama. During my two-day stay, all the other guests I encountered were European, and I was the only Asian person in the entire backpacker room, which was a very unique experience.

Very lovely and warm homestay. Will give a 5 star if the stairs can be substituted with lift. Am very thankful to the host helping to carry my large luggage up 3 flights of stairs. Room is super cosy and bed is comfy.

An average quality onsen hotel in Gero. Not the best type but also better than many. It is a matter of one's choice in spending more money for better choices or not, as the price range in Gero can be 100% difference for the best and those with much lower price. All onsen are old in the hardware facilities, but traditional.

It was a new hotel, so it was very clean. The female staff were very friendly. There were two things I didn't like. The first was that the male staff were quite cold. The second was that the refrigerator had a peculiar smell, and the smell got onto the plastic bottles I put in it. If these two points could be improved, I would like to stay again. The view from the hotel was amazing.

2025.11.23 Landing in Nagoya, I played for a day and finished dinner at 20 o'clock before taking the train to Shanghai. This is a self-service hotel near Meinong Taitian Station. I will send an email to inform the access code in advance. After entering, the ipad will scan the passport photo and show the room number and electronic lock password. It is very convenient. Suitable for i people. There is an elevator. The room has a separate toilet and bathtub shower, bath towels and pajamas are also prepared, and there is a deodorizing spray on the hanger, which is very clean and convenient. The next morning at five o'clock in the morning, I walked to the station to see the cloth bag Buddha wearing sunglasses. It was also very convenient to go to the hotel in Inushan City.

The accommodation looks like an old Japanese-style house. The room downstairs has a Japanese-style fireplace, but unfortunately I saw it when I left, so I didn't take a picture. The room was on the upper floor of the house. I slept comfortably and was quiet. I felt fully rested. The bathroom is downstairs, you have to walk up and down. The shower room is switched between men and women and closes at 22.00. It's a pity that I wanted to try the outdoor type, but at that time it was the men's bathroom. The water in the bath smelled quite a bit of chlorine. The accommodation might have encountered insects (I saw that it was written, but we went and didn't encounter any). The air conditioner can be turned on, but the temperature must be high because if it's low, it will become a heater. The air conditioner is a bit loud. There is both a heater and an air conditioner in the room. I'm not sure if it works, but I turned it on because I'm not used to the lack of ventilation. The mattress is okay, not too thin. The pillow has pellets. At first, I thought I wouldn't be able to sleep. After sleeping for a while, I slept well. There is a parking lot behind the accommodation. There is enough parking, but we parked in front of the accommodation. The way up to the accommodation is very steep. If you're not a strong driver, you might get hit. Be careful or have a skilled driver drive up. This accommodation should be suitable for people who drive around by themselves.

This hotel is very new, almost like it was built in a hurry. They used prefabricated construction materials for the structure of the accommodation. The reception area is like a modified shipping container with air conditioning for the staff (check-in is done using a code sent by the hotel). When I checked in, there happened to be staff present who spoke English well. The accommodation has two floors and no elevator. The room was large and clean, and conveniently located in the city center, making it easy to walk to various tourist attractions. There isn't a breakfast area or a common area yet. The hotel provides water from a dispenser and ice. The price wasn't cheap, but not overly expensive either, considering that Takayama seems to be mostly tourists, and the prices for goods and services are generally high. There's still a fair bit of construction going on in the vicinity (both for the hotel itself and other nearby developments).

Staying at Hostel Miyagawa by Murasaki Ryokan was truly one of the highlights of my trip — an unforgettable experience that beautifully blended comfort, tradition, and hospitality. From the moment I arrived, I was welcomed into a warm, peaceful atmosphere that reflected the essence of a traditional Japanese ryokan. The design of the space is charming and authentic, with thoughtful touches that bring out the beauty of Japanese culture. Everything from the tatami rooms to the meticulously clean facilities made the stay incredibly comfortable. What truly made it special, though, was the feeling of calm and connection to local traditions that this place offers. It’s more than just a place to sleep — it’s a cultural experience in itself. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking to immerse themselves in an authentic and beautiful ryokan stay.
