Hotels With breakfast in Gifu Prefecture, Japan

"The environment here is great, and the shuttle bus service is very convenient. The hot spring area has several indoor and outdoor pools of varying sizes, so even when it's crowded, people can spread out. However, there's a lot of room for improvement in the service. The shuttle bus driver on our return trip didn't help with luggage, and when there was an issue with our pre-booked meal, the restaurant staff's attitude was quite stiff. Thankfully, the Trip.com customer service was quick to respond, which somewhat alleviated the unpleasantness caused by these issues."

"This was my second stay at the Washington Hotel in Takayama, and I'll start with the pros. It's incredibly convenient, located directly across from Takayama Station and the Nohi Bus Center. From the platform, it's less than a 50-meter walk to the hotel lobby, which is super handy. For travelers catching early buses to Shirakawa-go, Kamikochi, or Furukawa (especially recommended during cherry blossom season), this location is a huge advantage. All the nearby attractions are within walking distance, and the drugstore, restaurants, and specialty shops next to the hotel are among the last to close in Takayama. This is a big deal because many restaurants and shops in Takayama are quite particular, operating only four or five hours (or even just two or three) a day and often closing three or four days a week. Some restaurants even stop taking customers by 6 or 7 PM. We joked that at night, Takayama is full of 'hungry ghosts' wandering around! The hotel's toothbrushes are still the 'old style' and are much better than those in many other hotels. The triple room layout was well-designed and felt spacious when organized properly. The shower had good pressure and was very comfortable. What needs improvement is the shower curtain – it's too thin, so the strong shower spray easily splashes outside the tub. The breakfast is only a Japanese set meal. I tried it one day, and the taste was just so-so. I skipped it the second day, and it was still the same on the third, so I decided not to eat it again. The breakfast options are too limited; it looks good but doesn't taste great. Other hotel services were still good. The triple room had two trash cans, which shows thoughtful attention to detail. The overall bathroom facilities felt a bit old, and the extractor fan wasn't very powerful... Oh, and the hotel offers a hot spring ♨️ with pretty long opening hours, but I didn't get to try it, so I can't comment. All in all, for this price, being able to stay in such an extremely convenient, central location near the station (and commercial center) is definitely worth it. On a side note, I'm not sure if it's due to an economic downturn or the off-season, but Shirakawa-go and Takayama were noticeably less fun, less interesting to explore, and had fewer good shopping and dining options than my previous two visits. 'Travel early!' is truly not an empty phrase."

"This was the best hotel we stayed at during our trip. If you're visiting Takayama, I highly recommend it. It's a century-old building with excellent service. Located near H041 station, hotel staff can also provide a shuttle to H045 station. The hotel has three private baths and a public bath. When we went, the private baths were practically empty, requiring no reservations or queues. There are a few more private baths across the street, but you only need to experience them once. Personally, I think the hotel's private baths are more convenient. Our room had a heater, which was very Japanese. We stayed two nights, and the breakfasts and dinners were different each night. I recommend staying at least two nights for a better experience – quiet and less crowded, it was excellent."

"The staff were very friendly, the hot spring area was spacious with an infinity pool, and the view was fantastic! The room was spacious and clean, the amenities were all of high quality, and the view from the window was beautiful!"

"Everything about this hotel was exceptional – from its beautiful exterior and excellent facilities to the friendly service, immaculate cleanliness, and convenient parking. The picturesque stream flowing nearby was an added charm. I absolutely want to go back! I enjoyed running along the stream every morning, and the breathtaking scenery is truly unforgettable."

"In order to be close to the destination of the next day, I chose this hotel, but I didn't expect it to be a couple hotel. The price/performance ratio here is too worth it, less than 400 RMB, the room is super large, the disadvantage is that you can check in after 9 pm and check out at 10 am the next morning. The room is not bad, the facilities are very new, and the toiletries are all big brands. The variety and taste of breakfast are a little biased, but the problem is not big."

"Visited one of Japan's top three hot spring towns and booked a traditional Japanese-style room at a century-old hotel, which included two meals. The hotel offers a shuttle service from the train station, which was incredibly convenient. Check-in was a breeze thanks to the friendly staff at the front desk who spoke Chinese. The room was exceptionally spacious with stunning views from the window – perfect for two people. The hot springs themselves, both indoor and outdoor, were wonderful. Gero Onsen truly lived up to its reputation; my skin felt incredibly smooth after a soak. Free cold drinks were available post-soak, and the milk from the vending machine was particularly delicious! The meals provided by the hotel were also plentiful and tasty. The entire hotel had a very authentic Japanese ambiance. Although we only stayed for one night, we're already looking forward to a longer visit in the future! Highly recommended to everyone."

"This quiet town is mostly populated by locals who come to enjoy the hot springs. There are two hot springs, one open-air and one indoor. Mukan is in a great location, a five-minute walk from the JR station and a ten-minute walk from the hot spring town. Both breakfast and dinner are delicious, featuring local produce. The table was already set when we arrived, and the service was excellent."
