The level of service was top notch. I can safely say that I have never experienced that high level of service in my life. We enjoyed both the dinner and breakfast meals they offered.

HOTEL AMANEK HidaTakayama

8/10 Good

"Clean, Downside: no bathtubs in room. Would have been helpful if we had known beforehand that there was a shared outdoor bath that needed swimsuits. Appreciated the complimentary snacks from 3-7pm. Breakfast - inadequate toaster service, and disappointed that there were barely any fresh fruits except pineapples and frozen mangoes on repeat for 3 days: Laundry - only 3 machines available,"

Residence Hotel Takayama Station

10/10 Excellent

"Perfectly located in town for sightseeing as it is right next to the train station and bus terminal! There’s restaurants and grocery store near by to buy food and cook! Also love the washer/dryee, it’s so convenient to have one in the room (family apartment) and very quiet when it runs!"
