Home for a Night”
Located in quiet area across bath house. Around 10-15 minutes walk from the station. Near morning market and old town. They provide coffee and tea, hot water and tap water is drinkable. I stayed at 2nd floor dorm. The room is tiny, but bed area is spacious. The room got natural light from glass windows on the roof. Bathroom and dorm are clean—hairdryer provided. The staff, at that time was Tats, was really helpful. He also remembered all the guests name and made conversation with them. What a nice gesture to make guests feel at home! It was a quiet and nice stay. Recommended!

Really new, well designed, minimalist wooden & white styled dorm.”
When I first arrived, I was honestly very impressed as it looked a lot better and newer than in the photos. Don't worry about the beds being bunk beds or capsule style, as you get a really wide & tall space. More than just your mattress, you have a space wide enough to put your bag and items beside it even. And space under the beds for luggage. The room itself is a bit narrow, but you have a large bed area and high ceiling w natural light entering in the morning. More impressively was the owner who's a fairly young guy who's fluent in English. I asked for recommendations and he took out a map & drew out locations for me to visit and the route/sequence which would be good to take. Walkable to distance to all the places in Takayama imo. No towels, but shower & shampoo are provided and rental of bicycles for 800yen a full day. Will definitely come back my next visit.

Clean, affordable, and a good place to meet friends!”
Definitely 5 stars when it comes to value for money. The place is clean and cosy, making for a very comfortable stay during the one night that I spent here in Takayama. On the first floor at the reception, there is a big table at which I had the pleasure of meeting several other travellers. The staff are really friendly too and provide good food recommendations around the town. I savoured my experience here and in Takayama like a cup of good tea

Super comfortable stay in Takayama”
Hands down one of the best hostels I've stayed at -- the beds are extremely spacious, and the facilities are clean. Management very kindly fulfilled my request to stay in an all-female dorm, which made me feel even more at home. The hostel is situated very close to the station & tourist attractions. Highly recommended if you're looking for a comfortable & great value place in Takayama!

Excellent Accommodation for Backpackers”
Located about 5-10mins away from Takayama station, cup of tea was an amazing accommodation that we stayed in. The hostel owners were always available at the lounge to interact and share recommended location around the city to guests. The owners are well conversant in English and Japanese, so fret not. Just opposite the street, you can find a sento and a ramen shop can be found 2-3mins away. We'll definitely come back here again for our stay. 100/10 stars!

Really fantastic ”
Nice roomy, private and comfortable beds. A very convenient location, friendly staff and there was even a comfortable Japanese garden! The only negative was the amount of bathrooms, at certain hours you had to wait for a free one.
