Decent room, ok sizewise for a party of two.
But no add’l bedding is available in the room such as extra pillow or blanket.
Lighting is a little weak, should have more lights to make the room brighter. Also, needs more hanger for the clothing rack.
Staff are courteous.
Stayed one night at solest enroute to takachiho. Hits:
1. Cosy classy hotel with nice decor
2. Quiet and clean rooms with full amenities available
3. Breakfast is good value, small but good spread, recommend to add on if not available with your room (¥1500 for adults, ¥750 for children below 12)
4. Friendly staff to help with food recommendations. They have a list of restaurants on a card depending on your preferred cuisine, and even helped to make reservations on my behalf, which is a nice touch.
A few misses:
1. Check in is self service while the staff are available at the counter. Not very intuitive interface and had problems with breakfast payment, so ended up still had to go through the counter staff
2. Room tv is quite outdated. While it can connect to network and play simple apps like YouTube, it was extremely slow. Mine had wifi connectivity issues and had problems playing some videos. Netflix is not available.
3. Rooms are a little too dimly lit. Maybe I didn't manage to figure out where the switches are for all the lights
The hotel is beautiful but it does not have room service. Breakfast is basic. But I can understand the occupant rate is not always at the peak. Room is roomy and huge. As the hotel doesn't provide room service and the restaurant has to make reservation a few days before (limited slot), we have to drive out to eat. There is no restaurant that is walkable at 4degree temperature at night. And also, many restaurants closed by 7pm. You need to drive out to eat. And not many restaurants are child friendly. This hotel is very near to takachiho gorge and we love it cos it's our purpose to visit. It's just 5 mins drive away.
Overall, I highly recommend you to stay in Thai hotel. It's clean and service is good. Most of them speak English.
We loved this hotel. We stayed in the premium room on the ground floor and it was spacious and beautiful with a terrace. The kagura performance is a short walk away and highly recommended to book in advance. Hotel provides cushion for you to use while watching the performance. The Cambodian waiter at the hotel during dinner was very polite and friendly. The lady who checked us in was also very helpful she Even offered to go to our room to help us turn on the YouTube channel for our child was we could not figure out the remote buttons in Japanese. Parking onsite is easy and plenty. Short drive to the gorge. Do book dinner in advance as it’s not possible to add on during check in. We would love to come back soon.
Although Takachiho is a very small and quaint little town in the mountain countryside, this hotel is a gem. Service, quality and amenities beats many hotels in cities across Japan.
This property was very nice and the staff were the best. Super helpful and really nice. If you are thinking about booking get the dinner its really good and the value is amazing. I had to book afterwards and I was lucky they were able to fit me in, just book it ahead of time you won't regret it. The only small critique is I wish they had laundry facilities.
This seems to be the newest and probably the best hotel accommodations in town. Convenient to see the Kagura show at the nearby shrine. I would recommend it to anyone. Try to get one of the larger rooms.
