The staff member who met us at the house was absolutely lovely and kind. That being said, it did take quite a while to go through the check-in process. Personally, I would have preferred to do a self check-in with the keypad code. This was standard at most of our other AirBnBs or home rentals. However, it was nice that they offered to help make dinner reservations for us!

This was a beautiful place to stay. Absolutely lovely house in a great location. Quiet, peaceful, comfortable. I wish we had stayed longer! This is a really nice area to explore. We went to the nearby waterfalls, and it was a great excursion. The breakfast baskets delivered in the morning were perfect! My kids enjoyed feeding the fish in the canal right from our kitchen door.

Our first night came right after a very hot day; the AC in the bedroom, for some reason, really struggled to cool the room down to a comfortable sleeping temperature. The second day, it was quite a bit cooler, and we didn’t have the same problem. So perhaps it’s just not strong enough to handle the serious heat.

Great location. I loved that it was an individual apartment but still somehow came with a prepared and served breakfast each morning. The bathroom was also really nice, and all the amenities were very high quality, from the quality of the snacks and drinks in the kitchen to the quality of the shampoo and conditioner.

For me, the pillows were too soft, but that’s just a personal thing. Everything else was wonderful.

Beautifully designed, centrally located in atmospheric old streets. Quiet place, comfortable beds and sofa, attentive and helpful staff. Delicious breakfast!

Loved everything!

Such a beautiful place!! We absolutely loved it! It was perfect for our honeymoon and we are so pleased to have ended up in Hida Furukawa as it was our favourite place. So quiet and pretty for strolling around, great places to eat and nice shops. Enjoyed more than Takayama but lucky to see both. The koy fish in the streams were lovely to see too. The staff here were amazing, always ready to help via message and very kind. The house was a luxury for us, lots of space and comforts for the two of us and the big outdoor bath was so relaxing. We would definitely stay again

Maybe hut could have been nice to have a second toilet on the 2nd or 3rd floors, but otherwise I wouldn’t change anything!

Everything was so comfortable and relaxing. The bath was so nice, and the wood is beautiful. The view of the fish stream is amazing, and the kitchen facilities are very nice. The kind lady (host perhaps?) who checked us in was incredibly friendly and so nice to us. We enjoyed chatting with her.

Beautifully renovated town house in a superb location in stunning Hida Furakawa. Treats in the fridge were a bonus. Nao was so helpful with restaurant recommendations and bookings and changing breakfast times. Had dinner at Sen on her advice, which had excellent food in a casual bar environment.

This property is amazing. The staff are brilliant. They booked us in for a Yakiniku dinner and nice touches like providing fish food for the Koi really complete the package. We're already planning our next visit to Hida-Furukawa to take in the brilliant atmosphere and friendly hospitality.

No bathroom upstairs where the bedrooms are, so not good for elderly or small children. .

We stayed in ichinomachi. It was a lovely house. The beds were amazing. Super comfy. House was was well stocked. Everything we needed. Great area..we really liked this small town. The people were some of the loveliest in all of Japan.

Beautiful property in a very authentic place. The owner left us lots of treats and surprise since we were celebrating a birthday. This does not go un noticed and made such an impression. He explained everything about the town and the next town nearby, offers to help with reservations for dinner, and gives you all info needed in a very organized way. The futon was the most comfortable ive had so far and the duvet is amazing. Everything is of high quality. I loved the pajamas and all the little extra amenities that makes it feel like a hotel. He even leaves bath salts for soaking. I was able to check in slightly early which was very nice too .. Dinner recommendations were great, and the bakery nearby has the best mochi i have tried so far Everything was perfect and i highly recommend.

Nothing at all. It was perfect!

Absolutely beautiful interior and exterior. It was so cosy yet so elegant. The outdoor onsen was so lovely. The facilities were AMAZING, every single thing you could ever need was already thought of and prepared for you already. The location was absolutely perfect aswell, basically in the centre of town but on a lovely quiet street. The host was so wonderful and helpful and because of her suggestions we went to a really great izakaya with some of the best izakaya food I’ve tried in such a long time! I woke up to a beautiful snowy view outside the window of the western style bedroom I felt emotional! (Image attached)

Wished we had stayed longer. :)

From the moment we stepped into Iori Yamaguchi, we were transported to a world of tranquility and elegance. This townhouse is a masterpiece of Japanese aesthetics, with every detail meticulously considered. Our own little sanctuary of comfort, it was impeccably clean and beautifully appointed. Stunning Japanese furniture showcasing the renowned tradition of carpentry in Hida, and a most fabulous en-suite bathroom with a gorgeous soaking tub created a truly luxurious atmosphere. Our host, Chitose, could not have done more for us to make our stay perfect. From restaurant recommendations and bookings to ensuring the kitchen was stocked with complimentary Japanese treats and beverages that again showcased local producers, Chitose's attention to detail was exceptional. The breakfast delivered in the morning was delicious, with the wonderful presentation that only the Japanese can do. A true gem and highly recommended for anyone seeking an authentic and unforgettable Japanese experience.

Pillows on the bed were very fluffy and comfy, but it would have been nice to have ones that a bit more supportive as an option.

Huge amount of space. Stunning bathroom. Indoor bath, outdoor bath, sauna, beautiful shower, Dyson hair dryer. Great location. The staff left local gifts and treats- not usually a big fan of sweets and treats but they were absolutely delicious. After 5 days in busy Tokyo it was so nice to get out of the city and into this beautiful place.

Just perfect with plenty of room a home away from home and extremely clean with great personal products for your use.

Great location in Hida’s most beautiful streets with canal right out the front. Great outdoor hot tub to soak your travelling bones!

The property provided an authentic Japanese experience with modern amenities. The staff also thoroughly explained all we need to know on how to use the amenities as well as nearby recommended places to eat/visit.

The only thing to mention is that the washroom / toilet is on the ground floor and the two bedrooms are on the first and second floor. This was not a problem for our party though!

Iori Yamaguchi has a great location in the old part of Hida village. It has been very tastefully renovated using high quality materials. The light wood tone is refreshing. Beds were very comfortable. The bathroom was well fitted with a very nice wooden bath. It is a pleasant drive to Hida Takayama which is a really enjoyable town to walk around and enjoy the history. The Manager called in to explain everything about the property and the places of interest and we really appreciated that.

We stayed in Iori Tonomachi in Hida Furukawa. I had been looking at properties in Takayama but wasn't satisfied until I saw this stay in neighbouring Furukawa. It was stunning in the pictures so we decided to book 5 nights, as a family of three (including a 1 year old). The place is so well located by the canal, it was like stepping into a piece of history. The area is well maintained and was beautiful with the autumn leaves and koi carp, the setting couldn't have been more perfect. The house itself is warm and inviting and well designed, as well as well equipped with everything we needed. Extra touches such as blinds in the bedroom and bathroom, and a projector which we used for movies, made things even more intimate. The beds were wide and comfortable, and the bathtub was very special. All throughout the stay we felt connected to the wider Hida community. We had greeting gifts of local miso crackers and mouthwatering daifuku, as well bath salts and local spring water. We went back to the shops for more! We were greeted by a member of staff, and they and others remained connected throughout our stay to ensure we had places to eat for lunch and dinner, making reservations for us and organising our luggage forwarding. Our days started off with traditional breakfast sets hand delivered by a sweet lady who even brought a gift for our baby. They were so yummy and differed day to day. We asked for Japanese meals for our entire stay and they accommodated this request. We parked in the city hall car park which was a short walk away. We didn't mind this as we could stroll through the neighbouring Buddhist temple and festival square. We looked forward to returning to Furukawa after our trips, and getting to know the town. We miss it a lot already! The town of Furukawa itself is quiet and artistic, the woodwork is especially of note.
