- Takayama, Japan
A nearly 200-year-old traditional minshuku where the irori hearth warms the communal area, kimono-clad evenings give way to multi-dish dinners of grilled fish, pickles and miso soup, and mornings begin with a simple yet satisfying breakfast, all tended by warm, attentive hosts who thoughtfully accommodate gluten-free guests, with the old town, mountain trails and a beautiful neighbouring temple all within easy walking distance.
- Takayama, Japan
Attentive staff who arrange your kaiseki dinner course by course in your tatami room, serve celebrated Hida beef across more than ten small dishes, and will hand you a complimentary pass to a nearby onsen when the in-house hot spring, charming but compact, is occupied, all within easy walking distance of Takayama's old town and morning markets.
- Takayama, Japan
Tucked a short stroll from Takayama's morning markets and old town, Rickshaw Inn wins guests over with its spacious, clean tatami rooms, warm futons, a communal lounge stocked with hot water for tea, a shared kitchen where travellers cook up locally bought Hida beef, and staff, owner Suzuki-san among them, who go quietly above and beyond, from restaurant recommendations to making multiple phone calls to retrieve lost luggage from a station three hours away.
- Takayama, Japan
The ryokan's traditional Japanese rooms, some with private outdoor tubs on the balcony, sit above Takayama's historic streets, with public onsen open after dinner and into the morning, multi-course kaiseki meals served in the room, and staff who guide guests through the experience in English.
- Takayama, Japan
Steps away from Kappabashi Bridge, this welcoming lodge wins hearts with its wood-toned rooms overlooking the Azusa River, attentive staff who greet guests with easy warmth, and a wood-fired buffet dinner, the smoky beef carved fresh from the flames proving a particular highlight, rounded off by a breakfast of French toast and sausages that sends walkers out into the Kamikochi morning thoroughly fortified.
- Takayama, Japan
Guests returning for the communal bath, praised for its pleasantly gentle temperature, the Hida-style breakfast of hoba miso and grilled beef cooked at the table, complimentary lobby coffee available through much of the day, and rooms kept scrupulously clean, this well-priced business hotel beside Takayama station quietly delivers more than its modest rates might lead one to expect.
- Takayama, Japan
The hotel offers welcoming, English-speaking staff and a well-maintained onsen, but its compact rooms and business-hotel character lack the intimate warmth and distinctive charm that would elevate it beyond a practical, pleasant base.
