Hida Miyata Station × Highly rated for dining at Hotel·Ryokan

Everything was wonderful as expected—the room, bath, facilities, meals, and service. The meals were elaborate Japanese cuisine and truly enjoyable. With its retro atmosphere and small number of rooms that kept it from feeling crowded, the inn was extremely comfortable and relaxing. The hospitality was, of course, excellent. The large public bath is a little on the small side, but there are plenty of private baths available and it never felt crowded, so it wasn’t an issue at all. Gero Onsen is quite far for us so it’s not easy to visit often, but this is an inn that makes you want to come back.

I was able to enjoy the open-air bath at a relaxed, quiet pace. The kaiseki dinner had more dishes than I expected and was delicious. In particular, the Hida beef was outstanding—sweet and tender, melting in my mouth. Breakfast was also excellent with nothing to complain about. As a coffee lover, I really appreciated being able to enjoy lounge coffee freely at any time. This is an inn that makes you want to come back again.

This was my first stay. From the warm welcome on arrival to the send-off at departure, everything was a truly satisfying experience. I hope to stay again during the autumn foliage season.

The atmosphere of the main building was wonderful. Maintaining such a historic building must take a lot of effort, so I was pleasantly surprised by how clean and well kept it was. This time we chose the newer wing where we could enjoy the Onsen in our Room, but next time I would love to stay in one of the lovely Rooms in the main building, such as Sanraku or Kumoi. Dinner and drinks were delicious, and being able to enjoy them in our Room made it feel truly luxurious. All of the staff were genuinely kind and welcoming, and we made great summer memories. We will definitely come again.

The baths left our skin smooth just as the Reviews said. Dinner was a kaiseki meal, so we were able to enjoy it at a relaxed pace. Everything was delicious and had a rustic, home-style feel, which we really liked for its simplicity. Our child was thrilled and said the Hida beef sukiyaki was especially delicious. Some areas (the medium-sized bath) were only accessible by stairs, but it was less crowded and we could unwind peacefully. At check-in, we received a 10% off ticket for the shop and made good use of it when buying souvenirs. All of the staff were very kind, and we were happy that they handled our requests in advance properly. We would love to stay again if we have the opportunity.

My daughter and I stayed here together. When we arrived, I dropped my daughter off at the entrance and was about to head to the parking area as instructed, but a staff member at the entrance noticed the maternity badge on her bag and immediately guided us to a nearby parking space. I was truly impressed by such thoughtful attention. We had many chances to speak with the front desk staff, housekeeping staff, and dining staff, and everyone was courteous and pleasant, allowing us to relax and enjoy our time. Thank you very much. We would love to stay again.

The view from the room was truly soothing. The flow of the Hida River, the Takayama Main Line trains crossing the railway bridge, and the hotel’s beautiful garden. There is a footbath in the garden, and it felt wonderful. Towels were provided by the footbath, and I really appreciated the hotel’s thoughtful attention. The open-air bath was also spacious and excellent. Some of the facilities feel a bit dated, but it was within an acceptable range. (I just wish the light in the bathroom sink area were a little brighter…) This time our room was upgraded to a 15-tatami room, so we were able to relax and spend our time comfortably. Thank you very much. It was disappointing that the shop is only open in the morning. (After breakfast I bought some Hida sake—perhaps it would be good to promote that you carry alcohol?) We were able to stay at a reasonable price and fully enjoy the hot springs. Thank you for taking care of us.

This was my first stay here. We stayed in a Japanese-Western style Room in the Sasara building, which had been renovated and was very clean. The staff member assisting us was a foreigner, so some explanations of the meals were a little hard to understand, but it was clear they had studied well. Every dish was delicious. By chance, it was the first day of the Gero Onsen Festival, and I was moved to be able to watch the fireworks while soaking in the open-air bath at night. We were able to relax and enjoy our time.

We stayed just after the Golden Week holidays. The front desk staff, restaurant team, and housekeeping staff we passed on our way out were all pleasant and handled everything smoothly. Our Room had an open-air bath; although it was listed as having no view at the time of Reservation, we were able to enjoy the mountains across the river, the lights of nearby Onsen Accommodations, and a sky full of stars. We had recently stayed at a related property in Yamashiro Onsen and expected similar meals, but the buffet selection was different here, and in particular the local Gero specialty “Kei-chan” chicken was delicious. The baths were used by quite a few guests, but they never felt crowded, and everything was well cleaned and easy to use. We were able to relax and enjoy a wonderful, unhurried stay. We would love to stay again.

Since the Room we selected was on the 4th floor, we got quite tired going back and forth three round trips down to the 1st floor (for walking our dog, etc.), plus meals and the bath (four round trips up to the 2nd floor) (lol). Next time, we’ll choose a Room on the 1st or 2nd floor (lol). Other than that, there were no problems. Our dog was happy, and the food was delicious too. (We are an elderly couple, aged 75 and 70.)

Thank you very much for your hospitality. The property was thoroughly cleaned down to the smallest details, and I was able to relax. Fresh flowers were displayed in the Room, and although it faced the mountain side, we could still see the fireworks. It had a lovely atmosphere. The sauna temperature was not too high and felt just right. The cold water was also not too cold, which was great. I would love to stay again. Thank you very much.

I stayed at Ogawaya for two nights, and dinner was excellent on both days. The second night in particular made me very happy with its full Hida beef course. Breakfast also offers a wide variety of dishes and is delicious. There are many staff members from Southeast Asia, and most of them provide warm hospitality with sincere effort and a smile. The Room was very spacious, clean, and comfortable. The welcome sweet, blueberry daifuku, was also delicious! It would be even better if the skincare amenities were a bit higher quality. Thank you very much.

The location and the staff’s service were excellent, and I was very satisfied with my stay. This time I was here for work, so I didn’t get to try the meals, but I’d definitely like to next time. The hot spring was fantastic!

A truly exceptional Hotel, offering simple elegance and abundant free-flowing Onsen water sourced from Gero’s natural spring. Attentive staff and housekeeping, along with a well-organized Room. A warm and welcoming second home you’ll want to return to again and again.

I’ve stayed at Ooedo Onsen Monogatari several times, and this was the best one. Their service is well balanced: they allocate staff where they’re truly needed and keep staffing to a minimum elsewhere. You won’t see lots of kimono-clad attendants walking around like in traditional hot spring inns, but it’s clear they are thinking carefully about how to improve guest satisfaction. I thought it was excellent.\nHowever, regarding meals, I still think it would be better if à la carte dishes could be ordered on the spot. At the very least, I wish orders could be placed at check-in. The dinner buffet is delicious, but adding those à la carte options would definitely increase satisfaction. I should have reserved in advance—I planned to order after arriving, but it was too late. That was a bit disappointing.\nOverall, though, it was great and I’d like to visit again.

More than 40 years ago, when I was a child, I stayed here with my mother, my older brother, and a family who were acquaintances of my mother. I could barely remember anything other than the name, but after all these years, I’m glad I was able to stay again—this time with my own family. The portions at both dinner and breakfast were very satisfying, and I was happy to have my favorite hoba miso. I love Gero, so if I have the chance, I’d like to stay again.

It was a truly relaxing stay from the bottom of my heart. I stayed here to unwind and get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The attentive care and calm atmosphere that only a small-scale Accommodation can offer were incredibly comforting. Located along the river, time flowed quietly and gracefully, and I was able to soak in the Onsen at a leisurely pace. The Hida beef course dinner was carefully prepared dish by dish, allowing me to fully savor the deliciousness of Hida beef. It was a highly satisfying dinner that left both my stomach and heart full. To all the staff who took care of me, thank you for your warm hospitality. This is a hideaway-like Accommodation perfect for anyone who wants to enjoy a high-quality Onsen and meals in a शांत setting.

I stayed solo, and for a Ryokan with Onsen, it felt like there were quite a few solo guests. There are two large public baths, including a rooftop open-air bath, and they were spacious and comfortable. The buffet-style meals offered a wide variety of dishes, with frequent refills, so I was very satisfied. Overall satisfaction was high, but the building layout is complex with many stairs due to changes in elevation, which may not suit elderly guests.

I traveled solo for one night and two days from 9/6 to 9/7, and soaking in the water truly lived up to what you’d expect from Gero Onsen—I felt refreshed both physically and mentally. The meals were just the right amount, not too much or too little, and everything was delicious. Unfortunately, it rained so I couldn’t do much sightseeing, which was a bit disappointing, but I did make it to the morning market. I’d like to visit Gero Onsen again someday.

I booked a 3-night stay for the ayu fishing tournament with No Meals Included, but thank you for accommodating my request to add meals for two days. The variety of baths helped me relax and recover from fatigue. Personally, I would be happy if there were a coin laundry available. I’ll do my best so I can come again next year. I’m very satisfied.
