Exceptional”
This hostel is pretty new with good facilities. We stayed in a 5 pax family and the room was large and clean. The shared bath rooms and toilets were clean and tidy. There were 4 bath rooms and you did not need to wait even you came in a group. You cannot imagine there was a lift in a hostel and no need to worry about bringing heavy luguagges. My family loved this hostel as there was a kitchen fully equipped with kitchenwares. We bought food and cooked here. But it took 10 minutes walk to the main street and was difficult in hot weather. The staff here could speak good english and easy to communicate. Overall, high price value and would stay in Ouka Guesthouse if come again.

GREAT STAFF (Amy & Lucy)”
Owner of this hotel must be very lucky for having great staff as they have a genuine yet professional approach in providing excellent customer service experience! Location is great as it is within walking distance of almost all the places you would like to pay a visit when in Takayama. btw. the whole hostel looks/smells very neat and well maintained which is a major plus.

Excellent place to stay and explore Takayama”
I spent 5 nights there in a single room. It was big enough for me to open my big suitcase (30kgs). The bed was very comfortable. The staff were very friendly and helpful, I was contacted to join a local party a few days before I arrive ! It's about 7-8 mins from the train station but even at night, it feels super safe and nice to walk to the guest house. You have access to 3 computers with internet and a lovely living room with piano, guitar and Studio Ghibli music in the background. Finally, there is 7-eleven just a few meters from the guest house.

Excellent”
Staffs were nice and friendly. The place was very clean and tidy. However, we stayed in room next to dormitory room, so it was noisy while people walked in and out late night.

Humble and feel like home”
Ouka Hotel Takayama is the best hotel we stayed so far in Japan. It is located quite convenient, about 10 min straight walk from Takayama Station, on the main road of Takayama. Right beside the hotel, there is Seven Eleven where you could buy snacks or quick grab breakfast. The first thing you notice is how it feels like home, when you enter the hotel, they provide a shoes rack to put on your shoes and change to their comfy slippers (not some cheap thin one). The receptionist, Mr.Manabu, speaks fluent English and very friendly, he give some helpful suggestion about where to go and visit in Takayama. There are also some information about Tourist attraction, place to eat (and how much it will cost) on their bulletin board. There are living room where you could interact with fellow traveller and also kitchen with free tea and coffee. We (3 male adults) stay in superior Japanese room with inside bathroom. The room is quite spacious with japanese tatami style and futon. There is also small balcony inside our room and the bathroom is completed with a bathtub. They also provide free earplug and comfy thick yukata, just in case if you need one. But the most interesting thing I found is a hand-written personal welcome note with my name on it. Very very nice touch and excellent personal service! They have washing machine and dryer for you to use (with small cost). I really recommend this hotel if you want to explore Takayama and Shirakawago. I definitely will stay again in Ouka Hotel Takayama.

Superclean place, great location, friendly staff”
What a cozy hostel.! It felt like home away from home! Spotlessly clean and warm. Good beds for a nice sleep. Location can't be better - less than 10mins away on foot from Takayama's train and bus stations, and some 20mins away from the old quarter. Great info on message boards what to see in Takayama, where to eat etc. Staff was friendly and helpful. Kitchen was big and with lots of utensils. Cooked our meals there several times. The only downside of Ouka are curtains and not entrance doors to rooms. It would be nicee to put at least some simple door. Overall great stay and would come again!
