    We stayed in the room near the entrance. could have more sound proofing

    Lovely little hotel. A little walk from the train station. Breakfast was excellent and there’s a private onsen you can reserve

    15 min walk from old town, but also closer to the folk village, which was helpful, and close to station.

    Very nice, modern hotel, but with traditional design and features. Staff were extremely helpful - they booked restaurants for us, made suggestions, and even forwarded our lost luggage to Tokyo for us. Highly recommended. Onsen and breakfast boxes also excellent.

    As a first timer to experience Ryokan, we are spoiled with the modern facilities there (hot spring, breakfast and the amenities that been prepared, the staff is so helpful, one of them take their time to let us know how to use coin laundry. And the girl that we met on the check out day, she gave us a ride to Takayama station because I came back to return the adaptor that I lent during the stay. Even though the ryokan is traditional culture but Ichinomatsu can create a modern clean that make our stay feel more comfortable, easy and relaxing

    The futon was quite thin. Most ryokans i stayed at had futons at least twice as thick. Comments about me traveling on my own were also not appreciated

    The onsen was excellent, the lounge with proper coffee machine was a nice touch. The room was very clean and nice. The hotel is in a quiet area.

    Not applicable, it was great.

    Beautiful building newly renovated in the traditional style. Very clean, very hot Onsen private use. Very clean and well equipped rooms with towels and Kimonos 👘 and accessories. Lovely outdoor deck and garden. Lounge and dining area to share with other guests. Tea and coffee available and breakfast boxes provided if needed. Very close to railway station, go opposite side of station from town centre and walk straight past 3 sets of traffic lights and it’s on the right. Great place highly recommend staying here.

    Location was ok, about a 10-15 min walk from the “old town” which was fine for us.

    Comfortable rooms, Japanese breakfast, great coffee machine. Friendly staff, very relaxing. Private onsen was amazing. I would definitely stay again

    Conveniently located, efficient and friendly service. Nice personal touches were found throughout the property and inside the rooms, which truly added to the entire experience. The check-in process was breezy but did not feel rushed at any point. The innkeeper was very friendly and provided us with all the information we needed for our stay. The rooms were clean, elegant and cozy; I especially appreciated the lighting choice - it provided a very warm and comforting feel. The beautiful outdoor garden along with the private heated bath were also highlights that make you realize - Wow, I'm really in Japan. The breakfast was spectacular, and easily a meal that I still think about constantly, despite the fact that my stay was one month ago. Check-out was extremely easy, and our great night's rest provided us with all the energy we needed to venture off to our next stop in Gifu. Thank you Ichinomatsu Japanese Modern Hotel for your hospitality. My partner and I would love to stay here again the next time we are in Takayama.

    There was nothing about the Ichinomatsu Modern Japanese Hotel that we didn't like. Everything was great. One of our rooms was upstairs and bags had to be carried up, but that wasn't a deal breaker. Staff were so helpful

    We liked everything about this gorgeous little hotel. the fact that it had only a small number of rooms was one of the great things about it. From the time you ring the door bell, you are well taken care of

    Far away (15minutes walking) from the center in an area a bit empty

    Breakfast (in a lunch box) very good, mostly the traditional Japanese one. The western version the day after was good as well. Kitchen available. Wonderful private onsen (to be booked in advance) Comfortable Japanese style room (mattress instead of futon)

    Its a little unpractial leaving your room as you have to change slippers 4 times in order to reach the entrance. We wish there would only have been japanese breakfast it was so good!

    Very pretty little hotel with very nice staff, rooms ans public spaces. Also the private onsen is easy to reserve and we never had any issue finding a time slot we like. We also loved the japanese breakfast! They switch between japanese and european style every other day. Thank you for the lovley stay!

    Very engaged host. Very clean. We enjoyed the free private outdoor onsen (bookable by 30 minutes). There is a supermarket with local craftbeer and sake close by.

    Nothing. Everything was great.

    This was a quaint little hotel. We received the warmest welcome, and the manager was so helpful with my veggie/vegan diet needs, telling us about the best local places to go to. The room was fantastic, absolutely loved the yukata! Very peaceful garden space and great facilities in the kitchen and dining area. We were given a Japanese breakfast box in the morning, which went down very well. Though, I only ate the fruit inside and gave the non veg food to my friend. We didn't have time to use the onsen, but had a peak when there was nobody inside and it looked lovely. In other Japanese hotels I have stayed in, they try to cram people into tiny spaces, but this was a good size for two people in a twin room. Its in easy walking distance from the train station and to the city centre. The best hospitality I have received, and I have travelled a lot.

    This is a great homely hotel with an excellent private Onsen. The information at check-in was thorough. The rooms are comfortable and spotlessly clean. The Onsen after your day exploring or trekking (we went to Kamikochi for the day) was welcomed and relaxing. The Izakaya type restaurants which were recommended by the owner, and about a 10 - 15 min walk away, we're great too. All in all, we loved our time here.

    A lovely, clean, smaller hotel in a good location, which included an onsen to relax in at the end of a days exploring. A breakfast box was included, which was nice to start the day with. We had only a little luggage (rucksacks) so the walk from the train / bus station (which are nextdoor to each other) was quick and easy. The Check-in process and explanation of how everything worked was thorough (leave yourself some time for this).

    Distance from old town, overly bright lights in room even the smaller ‘bedside’ ones, proximity to smoking room which smelled very bad.

    Very clean, nice relaxing areas, outdoor bath was very nice, hosts were eager to help, close to hida village and castle.
