Takayama hotel rooms a the Independent

"Stayed for three nights and wished we had booked longer. The best place we stayed in Japan. Room was spacious lots of room for a family of four. Staff was helpful and fridge was stocked with water and drinks. Great view. Location was perfect. Would stay again."

"The hotel overall was very good. We booked it via Expedia for 3 adults and one15 yrs old, but it was appare fly a triple room so they charged us for an extra adult even though there was not really sleep space for 4 people. I’m not sure if the confusion was at the Expedia website or the property but they should either change the children definition age or at least warn tourists about it. "

"Excellent hotel, terrific service, very spacious and comfortable rooms. Good breakfast buffet. Excellent location short walk from Takayama station. Would recommend. "

"We took the Hida from Nagoya and as soon as you exit, it is a shoe 5-minute walk to your right. The check in was through a kiosk and staff was there to assist if needed. After checking in, the staff explained all of the features of the hotel including the barefoot policy, the onsen and the included nightly ramen service. Our room was spacious with a tea service container on the table. The amenities included a double and single bed, refrigerator, makeup area for my wife, a television (never used while we were there!), and a very nice bathroom. The onsen on the 13th floor had a waiting area with public men’s and women’s onsens along with three private onsens. Also on the 13th floor was a laundry room with two washers and two dryers. Washing was free and the dryer cost 100Y for 20 min. The hotel was very close (10 min walk) to the old town and the daily Miyagawa outdoor market. An amazing hotel that I’d recommend 100%!"

"Great place to stay. Every room has a washing machine. "

"Two very nice Onsen and a really good tax free shop in the basement! Convenient between hida village and Takayama downtown."

"Large resort surrounded by beautiful green space. Friendly services, excellent Japanese dinner and breakfast. Public, private, and in room onsen."

"Clean, close to the station, the staff super nice and helpful. "

"Good stay at the hotel. The Japanese rooms were amazing and we had a great vegetarian kaiseki dinner and really enjoyed the onsens. Would defintely recommend staying at this hotel. Only issue is transport to the location is a bit difficult if you don't have a car. We were aware of this and messaged ahead to ask about the availability of the hotel shuttle bus to the bus stop for our departure. Unfortunately, when we arrived the receptionist was unaware they had a shuttle bus and was very unwilling to check the information we were given or even help us sort out alternative travel. It led to a bit of a concerning situation for our travel plans before another staff memeber corrected her and arranged our transport."
