Furukawa-cho Holiday Rentals

"the staffs are all friendly, clearly explained a small problem of fully parked at hotel parking, and gave me free coupons for outside parking around. Overall impression of the hotel group is good, I always stay with them in Japan."

"Very convenient hotel to stay in. It’s very close to some great restaurants and the train station. It’s a 15 min walk to the old district. Parking is direct in front of it (with a surcharge). Staff is very helpful and friendly. Room was spacious and clean (maybe the carpet would need a cleaning soon). We would come back "

"An absolutely beautiful traditional Japanese ryokan! Beautiful Japanese women in kimonos serve in graceful style. Spacious clean tatami rooms nicely appointed. Elaborate delicious breakfast. Very nice onsen. Highly recommend. "

"1. Staff - Same as anywhere in Japan, staff are very nice and helpful. But what sets this hotel's staff apart from other hotels is that when you ask for directions, they won't just give you a map. They will also check via google map from their own phone and show you the route to your desired destination. 2. Room - Very spacious, clean, neat and tidy. In addition to that, there is free big bottled water every day. The room comes with a big washer/dryer, and even the laundry detergent also comes for free! 3. Shower - Shower area comes with both bath tub and standing area (for people like us who don't want to bathe in the bath tub). The water temperwture also is very stable, unlike other hotels in Japan wherein the water in the shower suddenly becomes hotter/colder even after you fixed the temperature. 4. Trash bins - This hotel has the most trash bins compared to all the hotels we've been to in all our travels. There are 3 bins (segregated waste) in the kitchen, 1 in the bedroom, 1 in the toilet and 1 in the tooth-brushing area, for a total of 6 trash bins! this is very useful as people in Japan need to bring home their own trash. 5. Surroundings - the hotel is just beside the Takayama Nohi Bus terminal and Train Station which makes it very convenient for travellers. it is also near to a number of tourist destinations (morning markets, Old Town, Hida Folk Village, etc) and eateries. We will definitely be staying in this hotel again in our next trip to Takayama."

"Peaceful and Serene"

"Roomiest hotel we’ve stayed in with great amenities, rooftop onsen, and a view of the train rolling by (not too loud though). Best of all, there’s space on either side of the bed- a rarity in some Japanese budget hotels. "

"Country Hotel Takayama provides excellent customer services in both Japanese and English. Location is excellent and convenient as it is within couple minutes walking distance to both JR Takayama station and Nohi bus terminal."

"Staff take great care of you. Definitely do the onsite dinner and breakfast, not just because they are excellent, but also because there are almost no other restaurants for dinner in the area. "

"Fantastic staff who were always helpful and cheerful. The nightly open bar from 5-11 pm in the lounge was incredible and amazingly subdued: tastings of local sakes or the ubiquitous Japanese lagers. Breakfast alternated between Japanese and Western bento boxes, and were filling. The futon beds are very firm, but that was ok with us. Bonus: we left some important medication behind and the staff overnighted it to us in Kyoto for $8.00US!"
