- Takayama, Japan
Tucked at the end of a forest road fifteen minutes from old Takayama, this owner-run auberge enchants with its inside-out rooms that blur the line between woodland and luxurious bed, a hinoki onsen, and an extraordinary Japanese-Italian kitchen where the chef bakes his own bread and brioche, crafts his own pasta, and pairs it all with a cellar of natural wines so thoughtfully assembled that guests find themselves drinking bottles they never expected to love, all tended by hosts warm enough to drive a stranded guest to the station at dawn without a second thought.

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.
