Extremely rude and unprofessional hotel manager. I was given a specific parking slot by reception, but when I started to remove the cone blocking it, the manager, who was going off his shift at the car park, suddenly yelled ‘No, no, no!’ I explained that reception had assigned me the spot, but he kept shouting, claiming he was the manager without offering any explanation. Frustrated, I raised my voice and repeated that another staff member had told me to park there. He ignored me and gave directions in English to my friend to park elsewhere. A few hours later, the cone was removed, and the spot was left open for anyone to park.

Only a 2 minute walk from the bus / train station to the hotel, excellent location for spending time in Takayama. The walk from the hotel to the sightseeing old town area is about 15 minutes but a very pleasant walk.Hotel staff were polite. Quiet and clean rooms (with a little damage but wasn’t too noticeable), powerful shower, comfortable beds. Would have been nice to have a free movie channel.The large bath and sauna was very hot, perfect after a long day exploring.A pleasant 2 night stay.August 2024The hotel is just a 2 minute walk from the bus/train station, making it the perfect place to spend your time in Takayama. It's about a 15 minute walk from the hotel to the touristy old town, but it's a very enjoyable walk. The hotel staff was courteous. Quiet, clean room (with some wear and tear, but not too noticeable), powerful shower, and comfortable bed. It would have been nice to have a free movie channel. The public bath and sauna were very hot and perfect after a long day of sightseeing. It was a comfortable 2 night stay. August 2024
