    The bamboo blinds let in a lot of light so that we were woken up at about 5am. It would make a big difference if the blinds blocked the light more effectively!

    The location, very close to the train and coach stations, was extremely convenient. The staff were friendly. The room was comfortable, clean and spacious. The breakfast was very good.

    The hygienic standards of the private onsen’s were very questionable.

    Hotel provides lots of free services for its guests (late night ramen service, Onsen, tea/coffee bar, shaved ice bar + ice cream). The breakfast also had lots of variety to pick and choose from!

    I may have glanced over that, and it really isn't an issue, but this hotel has different plans. Depending on your plan, more frequent cleaning will cost extra.

    Excellent value! Really nice and spacious rooms. The futons lie on an extra mattress, making the introduction to them quite comfortable. Both the public hotspring and the private ones are really good and excellent to relax. Free food and sweets are also much appreciated:)

    No bar in the lobby but that seems to be standard in Japan,breakfast was a bit pricey as western options were limited,Asian options plentiful so it depends on your viewpoint

    The general atmosphere of the hotel.is very comfortable,

    A nice spot to explore Takayama

    Takayama was a lovely location to escape some of the more well-known cities and explore a more traditional feeling Japan. Previously known for its many sake distilleries, you can visit one of the seven remaining and learn about the full process whilst sampling many varieties! Some very nice local shops as well as lots of places to try Hida beef. The hotel was beautiful with a big reception, very large rooms and great facilities including free to use private onsen. If you want to try the private onsen you can do this without reservation in 30-minute slots, but avoid evenings as it gets very, very busy. We went at 15:00 and nobody was queuing, so the earlier the better! The hotel also offers free evening ramen between 21:00 - 22:00!

    - We only could park after 15:00 at the accomodation. We where there 14:00 and if we wanted to park 1 hour earlier we needed to pay the dubble amount. So we stayed for 1 hour at a parking garage for 200 yen.

    - Friendly staff. - We could park the car for 1200 yen at the accommodation. - Room was big. Bed was comfortable. - Private onsen was oke.

    Had a great stay with my two kids. Spacious room, and a fantastic onsen, both indoor and outdoor, which we used every day on our stay. One of our best stays on our holiday in Japan. The complimentary evening ramen was also great.

    Great breakfast and cleanliness. I liked that everybody had to take out their shoes in the traditional Japanese way and was given a sort of kimono to move around and go to the Onsen. The latter was not enormous but still pretty cool. Overall, the experience was refreshing and regenerative in the context of a very hectic tour of this beautiful country.

    Great ryokan in Takayama

    We booked two rooms (for two adults and two kids of 12 and 10 years), fully paid in advance, but I was told during check-in that I had to pay almost 7000 JPY there for the 10 years old kid

    We loved our stay at Takayama Ouan Ryokan Hotel. The location is excellent, making it easy to explore Takayama, and the value for the price is outstanding. The onsen was a highlight — relaxing and beautifully maintained. Our room was immaculate and very comfortable. Breakfast was delicious with a great variety, and we especially enjoyed the free noodles at night and the snacks after the onsen. Highly recommended for a memorable stay in Takayama!

    I just thought this would be more of a Ryokan and less than a hotel. It's actually a big hotel in a ryokan style, which doesn't make it bad. My expectations were somewhere else

    Everything is great! The onsen experience, breakfest has many options of japanese and ocidental food, between 21h30 and 22h30 they served a complimentary ramen bowl. Really has everything you need
