    There was nothing we did not like about the property.

    The rooms were cozy, and small, but we liked having the couch area and appreciated the deep soaking tub. Basic overnight amenities, such as a hairdryer and bathroom supplies were provided. It was nice to have the lightweight bathrobe. It was very convenient to have laundry on our floor and a lovely café on the first floor. The staff there was a very hard-working and friendly.

    Nothing

    We stayed two nights at this lovely hotel, just a minute from the train and bus stations. The room was super clean and spacious. On our second day, they changed not only our towels but also the sheets—and even gave us fresh yukatas, which we didn’t expect. There’s a nice café downstairs where you can grab drinks and breakfast, and you can even order to your room. It was really convenient since they open early.

    Room was a bit tight and the hotel quite hard to find because it has no clear sign in the street - better look for the coffee shop attached to the hotel!

    Right in the middle of town with great espresso…

    The beds were good and we did sleep great but they did seem a small and not the same quality you could find in a major city for a hotel of this caliber.

    The hotel was in a great location. The cafe below was the best option for breakfast in town. Great for an afternoon glass of wine as well. The hotel is located to the best soba noodles restaurant in town and also to a great hida beef restaurant just around the corner. It was a great option due to the location, cleanliness and comfort of the room dor our couple of days in Takayama. The room was spacious enough and the bathrooms were incredible was great.

    That we weren't staying longer.

    A very comfortable and well laid out room. They had USB charger points built in and also provided bath salts for a nice relaxing bath at the end of the day.

    All was excellent.

    Hotel eph Takayama is a charming, small hotel within walking distance to the JR Takayama train station and conveniently located for walking to all the sites of Takayama. The room was Japanese style and ver charming using beautiful woods in its décor. Breakfast was delicious! We were offered a choice between a ham/cheese or vegetable panini or a homemade soup alternative. We chose the wonderful ham/cheese panini which came with coffee, juice, a delicious smoothie, salad,etc. Wonderful way to start the day and it is served in the adjoining Hids' Cafe and Bar. We ate dinner one night at Hids' and it also was high quality and excellent. I was so happy that we chose this charming hotel in Takayama!
