Every thing is perfect, the only thing I have to say is that at the app I reserved a room with private bathroom and there was not a private bathroom there.

昭和感のある、民宿ですが良いです。高山駅からのタクシー代も負担してくれますし、お風呂のアメニティはDHCでした。建物が新しくないため、断熱が悪く寒いのとWi-Fiが不安定でした。そこが問題なければ是非おすすめします。

駅から離れていることと、門限があり、23時までに戻って来ないといけないことが気にならなければ、とても良い宿泊施設だと思います。

Super oplevelse. Det var muligt at benytte deres Onsen, hvilket var fantastisk. Virkelig sødt værtspar. Blev hentet og afleveret på stationen.

閑静で落ち着いた古き良き和風の旅館

温泉につかり、静かなお部屋でゆっくりと疲れを癒すことができました。 温泉のお風呂は朝湯もでき、お一人サイズの露天風呂が心地よかったです。 バイクの一人旅でしたがガレージに入れてくれて、暗くなってメンテナンスをしていたら明かりも用意してくださりとても助かりました。

Ruhige Herberge in japanischem Stil

Trotz vieler Zimmer war es rundherum ruhig. Sogar in der Gemeinschaftsdusche mit jacuzzi war es angenehm und entspannend. Kaffe und Tee zur freien Entnahme. Unweit vom Markt Einkaufsstrasse etc.

Tradizione nella semplicità

Struttura tradizionale a conduzione familiare, dotata di piccola onsen. Gli spazi comuni sono gradevoli, la stanza era ampia con comodi futon sul tatami e con i consueti arredi fissi. Un grande vantaggio è stato quello di disporre liberamente di biciclette che agevolano di molto la visita della cittadina.

とても快適でした。

飛騨高山ウルトラマラソン参加のため利用しました。スタートが早朝5時でエントリーの受付が前日しか行われないため前泊しました。朝3時半に宿の方が会場まで送ってくださりとても助かりました。宿での滞在はとてもリラックスできてゆっくり休めました。来年も出場する時はぜひ泊まりたいと思います。

Nice, quiet Ryokan

My girlfriend and I stayed in Takayama for 3 nights, and we really enjoyed this place. The owners are a quiet but friendly Japanese couple who don't speak a ton of English, but it wasn't really a problem at all. The location is nice, just on the fringes of the old city, about a 5 min bike ride or 15 min walk to the main center of town. They have tons of bikes for guests to use, and it's a really beautiful little town to bike through. The onsen was a nice bonus, and it was always kept very clean. Just note that they are gender separated, and like a traditional Japanese onsen you bathe naked. There's a nice guide on the wall of the change room that shows you everything you need to know about proper onsen etiquette. Overall we'd recommend this place to anyone looking for the Ryokan experience in Takayama.

C/P is high

Staffs are very kind. Living room is clear and hot spring is good. Although the distance to bus/train station is little far, B & B can pick you up at station.

6/10 Good

It was a serviceable hotel

We were only passing through Takayama and needed an inexpensive place to stay (which is all relative when traveling in Japan during cherry blossom season in April. The prices everywhere seem to go up exponentially at that time. Even though we booked at least 2 months prior to our trip, it was very difficult to find a nice place at a mid-range price. The Minshuku Iwatatkan was clean and had an okay public bath. It was a bit far from the train station or any points of ear interest, but they did have a shuttle to/from the station.

Kleines traditionelles Hotel

Der Aufenthalt war sehr nett, das Personal sprach wenig englisch, aber war bemüht. Es gab Kimonos auf den Zimmern, man schläft auf Matten auf dem Boden, es gibt gratis Tee. Duschen und Toiletten befinden sich auf dem Flur. Für eine Nacht hat es uns dort sehr gut gefallen.
