Around Takambo Ski Resort × Highly rated Hotel·Ryokan

The Room, the meals, and the rural scenery... everything was wonderful! Even travel guidance was provided, and the services were excellent, which made our trip truly enjoyable. This is an Accommodation we would definitely love to visit again. Thank you very much for all your help during our stay. Thank you!

My parents stayed here because they had been interested in it for a while. Since it was a weekday, it was fairly quiet and they were able to relax. They were also happy that other older guests were using the pool too, so they felt comfortable using it without hesitation, and they said the food was beautifully presented and delicious!

While searching for an Accommodation near Shirakawa-go, we found a Room where each family member could relax and sleep in their own bed, so we booked immediately. Since the entire building is covered with tatami mats, it was very comfortable to stay there. All of the staff provided heartfelt hospitality, the property was impeccably clean throughout, and both the meals and the Onsen were wonderful. We stayed during Obon, and our child was delighted by services such as shaved ice and ring toss. After dinner, when we started to feel a bit hungry again, they offered “yonaki soba” with two types of half-size ramen: soy sauce and Toyama Black. It was delicious. We also accidentally left something behind and contacted them after checkout; they handled it very politely, which we truly appreciated. We would definitely like to stay here again when visiting Shirakawa-go in winter snow as well.

Recommended when you want to relax somewhere quiet with nothing around. The food was simply delicious—I was surprised at how good the wild mountain vegetables were. The owner’s eldest son is very knowledgeable and goes to gather them himself. I was told to try eating the fish (it was char when we stayed) from head to tail; I’m not usually a fan, but I gave it a try and it wasn’t as bitter as I expected. The rice cooked with Onsen water was also delicious—the meals were outstanding. The Onsen left my skin feeling silky smooth. This may be a matter of preference, but it was a bit lukewarm for me, so I rated it 4/5—I would have liked it hotter. I rated the Facility and Room 4/5 only because I wished there had been a toilet and washbasin in the Room; it wasn’t a major deduction.

The Onsen was wonderful, and the thoughtfully prepared seasonal cuisine was delicious. The Room was barrier-free, with views of the green mountains from the window. Art panels and lighting featuring Gokayama washi paper were used throughout, creating a very pleasant space. The bed firmness was just right, helping us recover from travel fatigue, and we were able to relax and take our time. We also learned about the Kokiriko folk song at this Accommodation. The staff were friendly and attentive, making this an Accommodation whose hospitality stayed with us. Thank you very much.

Nothing particularly outstanding or disappointing. The location is convenient, and you can start exploring Shirakawa Village from the morning. One of the service staff said they are from Yangon and send money back home to support their parents. I realized how tough that must be. When I went sightseeing, there were indeed many international visitors, but I didn’t feel that as much at this Accommodation. If I have the chance, I’d stay again—that’s about it.
