Best room and food in Japan ”
I’ve been making my way through Japan for the last three weeks ,staying in western style hotels, ryokans, guest houses, hostels, capsule hotels, and airBNBs - of all the places I stayed, Futarishizuka was my favorite. My room was amazing - I had a large Japanese style room with an extra seating area that had an beautiful view of Takayama. The highlight of the room was the private shower and bath. I never takes baths but it was too nice to pass up so I took one each night of my stay with a glass of sake. The contrast of the cold air and the warm bath was magical as I looked down on the town below. There location of the hotel is great. I noticed a few other people complained about the hill you have to walk up. To those people I say exercise more or flush out the cash and hire a taxi. Without the hill, you wouldn’t have such an incredible view. It took me about 15 minutes to walk there from the train station. Behind the ryokan is a hill with multiple hiking trails that you can explore to find the ruins of Takayama castle, as well as a shrine. I went their to pray both days - one time I was completely alone. It was magical. The ryokan also has an amazing onsen spa that I did use once. It was nice but I usually just bathed in my private shower/tub. The rest of the ryokan is so so, nothing too special. Not very Japanese, not very western either - somewhere in the middle. They did have an extensive library of manga which I thought was interesting. Besides the room, the food was the other highlight. This was some, if not, the best food I had during my stay. I had two breakfasts and two dinners. They had most of us do dinner in a dining room but I think you can also have dinner brought to your room. Dinner was sooooo good. The presentation, the variety of foods, the amount of food - sugoi. Breakfast was so so. Nothing worth writing about it. I noticed the last day I was there my breakfast was a bit less than the day before, and a bit less than everyone around me.

Great hotel”
Really liked the place, will definitely stay again. Amazing views of Takayama, park at the door steps, amazing onsen onsight, very good traditional breakfast. Felt like real Japan. Very nice staff. I am coming back to Takayama, planning to stay there again. One of the best places I've stayed in Japan on this trip. It is a walk steep uphill, so if you have big suitcases and walking - it will be a workout. I love hiking, so it was just a nice challenge for me, not an obstacle. Onsen has open air option where you can see the entire city, day or night. My room had private onsen as well. Bath products are from Pola, which is a luxury hair and skin care line in Japan. Room is very clean and warm, yokata, towels, toothbrush are provided. They took mu luggage earlier no problem. I have stayed at another property for 1 night as this place was booked, and can truly say I liked it much more, although the other property was higher star rating and more expensive. Definitely staying again!

Stay for one night in Takayama”
Location a bit far but no worried because they got shuttle service. Remember to make reservation for shuttle. Room was clean and staff very nice and polite. Beside, I very like their breakfast, it was very tasty. Will visit again. Highly recommended.

I would revisit this.”
The hotel is at the top of the town, so you stay with the benefit of enjoying the view of Takayama and the Japan Alps. Old town Takayama is within walking distance. The dinner and breakfast are both good. You can book private onsen (40 minutes) for JPY1,000. Parking is also free and the traditional Japanese coffee house is right opposite the hotel.

Best Ryokan Experience!”
Best Ryokan Experience. They have free hotel transfer and the private onsen is the best. Staffs are friendly and will really help you get the best experience. This hotel also has a great view of Takayama.

Excellent”
Got a room that has a view over the Takayama city and it snowed over the night, so the morning view was splendid. Though there were some over-growth of the trees that obscured some of the view right at the door-step of the hotel. Breakfast and dinner were great. Do note that the Onsen area was relatively small, (did not try the private ones), maybe sufficient for 5-6 people max? Can do own private version in the room alternatively. They have a good collection of Manga if you could read Japanese. Location wise, it is actually not too far from the Takayama old street using a shortcut via a hotel. The resort could share the path for travellers to reach easily. Might be good to liaise with the hotel earlier on transportation if you are coming from the Takayama station, as the resort did not respond to my message a day earlier while the info counter at the Takayama station shared that the resort only provide transfer to the resort after 3pm.

Valued for money”
Location might be a bit far from the town but can walk if you would like to as Takayama is very small town to be explored. They provided the transfer to/from train station free of charge which is very convenience for the guests. Our rooms were ok with all facilities that you can ask for in normal Japanese set up standard. They have onsen for both male and female and also paid private onsen for couple. The food is the best one that we had in this trip for both dinner and breakfast in traditional Japanese way.

I wish for the better thing”
Maybe I have hoped too much. The dinner was good but not that good. Although, there were many kinds of food that I enjoyed the varieties. But the taste was so so. Room was clean but not that clean and quite old. Long way to walk up to the hill from that station. The all day Onzen was nice . But i didnt try the private onzen because I saw it and it was just a small rocky onzen and needed to book and pay more.

Traditional accommodation with great views”
Perfect for those looking for a ryokan-style accommodation on a budget, with great views of Takayama. If you are used to or interested in ryokans, you probably know that except on the very high end ones, there’s no service or amenities typical of big business hotels (ex: room service or brand new modern room), the staff usually speaks limited English and the rules (especially on times) are strictly enforced. Some of the reviewers are maybe not used to this type of accommodation. The staff was very polite and helpful (despite the language barrier), the room was extremely large and had its own private bath, shower and toilet (unlike more traditional places) and a modern comfortable bed. Unfortunately my room faced the back (hillside), so I opted for the communal onsen and didn’t even use the private bath. For the location, please see other reviews. It’s a steep but short walk up a hill. The view and closeness to the old town were the main reason I chose the hotel, so I was perfectly fine with this. If you are NOT comfortable with walking up hill or can’t take a cab, this hotel is probably not recommended for you. Please note they have a shuttle (available in the morning for those going to the train station and in the afternoon for pick up at the train station).

Nice service but the location is quite far from the station.”
The staff is friendly and nice. The room is quite big and well equipped. However, the meal and the hot spring is not in a truly traditional japan style. The hotel located on a small hill quite far from Takayama station, which requires about 20 min walk. There is shuttle bus provided by the hotel, but the accessible time is really limited. There is a park and a temple near the hotel and the are really worth seeing.

The location is not easy to get to”
The hotel is located at the top of a little mountain. It is hard for elderly to get to. Even for us with two small suitcases it was hard for us to get there. The view of the hotel is excellent as you can see the whole city from there and it is next to a park so it is very relaxing. Very quite place. The room is clean and huge. However the shower is very weak and that’s a problem.

Wonderful stay; and onsen with great scenery”
Everything was great about this place. the room was clean and tidy with yukata provided. Onsen was great with scenery to view when soaking in. However, the location was inconvenient; but hotel provides shuttle bus to and fro train station. had a great stay in futarishizuka hakuun hotel.

Great stay!”
I wasn't sure how to get to the hotel when I arrived at the station and was pointed to a payphone. Apparently, they do pick-up services and I was pretty glad that I called because it was an uphill journey to the hotel. Room was massive for a single person like me with a balcony view of Takayama and I never get to use the wooden bathtub because I was soaking in the onsen pretty much all the time! I think they have three onsens and I tried two because the other one requires a charge. The view from my room and even the onsen was amazing because the place was located up a hill that I didn't mind just lounging around throughout my stay there. Town centre was walking distance and since Takayama was pretty small, I was able to get around everywhere by foot. I had Japanese-style breakfast which tasted good too.
