"Nice sized room, loved the private onsen and close to the station. Also close to downtown with a small walk. Staff is strict on check in times so be aware, early check in is not possible"

"room was clean and spacious. Great choice of restaurants. The onsen was also a real bonus"

"- The room was pristine and spacious. - The futon beds were insanely comfortable! - The private onsen was beautiful. - The staff were immensely helpful and had wonderful English - The location a few minutes walk from the train/bus station makes getting there with suitcases really convenient. - The breakfast is quite good and convenient. Definitely would go for the Japanese breakfast option Overall everything seems like it had been thought of which made the stay feel comfortable as both a home base for traveling around Takayama and the Hida region or as a place to rest and recoup on a rainy day"

"Super quiet Literally right outside of Gifu station. Friendly staff that was helpful with a total language barrier. Plenty to do and see right in the neighborhoods around the hotel. Breakfast was fantastic with local dishes and lots of Japanese staples. For the price it was definitely where I’ll stay next trip."

"We stayed at Honjin Hiranoya Kachoan for a very special occasion, and I cannot overstate how exceptional the entire team was. From the earliest planning stages through the night of our stay, every member of the staff, especially Mr. Kawamura from the reservation office, was deeply involved, genuinely excited, and incredibly thoughtful in helping coordinate my marriage proposal. They kept everything a complete secret from my partner (it was a surprise proposal), worked discreetly behind the scenes, and paid close attention to even the smallest details so the moment felt natural, personal, and entirely “us.” What stood out most was how invested the staff were - this did not feel like a standard celebration package or a routine request. The team treated it as something truly special, tailoring the experience to us with warmth, care, and sincere enthusiasm. Their coordination, timing, and sensitivity were flawless, and they made the entire experience feel bespoke rather than scripted. Beyond the proposal itself, the ryokan is beautiful, the rooms are elegant and comfortable, and the kaiseki dinner was outstanding. Every interaction reflected genuine hospitality and pride in what they do. This is a place where people truly care. We will remember this stay, and the kindness of the staff, for the rest of our lives. I cannot recommend Honjin Hiranoya Kachoan highly enough."

"Beautiful and traditional. Great service and location. Fully recommend!"

"A luxurious hotel with full amenities, with wonderful views available to the castle."
