Nuestro agente de viajes no había estado aquí personalmente pero había oído cosas buenas sobre él. Fue uno de los mejores lugares en los que nos alojamos en cualquier lugar en Japón! Las "habitaciones" son casas individuales de dos pisos, con habitación de estilo occidental y japonesa, varios aseos, cocina, preciosa ubicación al lado del río en las montañas, y un jacuzzi privado - rock alimentado onsen en el patio trasero de cada habitación. La comida y el servicio eran excelentes. Junto al ryokan es un hotel grande con increíble sexo onsens mixtos (te dan una especie de cosa toalla llevar). Debe haber diez diferentes onsens, construido sobre las rocas, con cascadas, etc. Es toda una experiencia! A la mañana siguiente visitamos un extenso de cavernas de piedra caliza cerca, tomó una corta caminata hasta una hermosa cascada, y visitamos un museo con una verdaderamente increíble colección privada de tesoros. Altamente recomendado!

“Wonderful accommodation with exquisite food”

First - the full name of this place seems to be Gasshozukuri-fu Hanare Hida Tsuzuri Oboro, so it can be a bit difficult to find in searches unless you include this.

First - the full name of this place seems to be Gasshozukuri-fu Hanare Hida Tsuzuri Oboro, so it can be a bit difficult to find in searches unless you include this. The Ryokan is adjoined to the Garden Hotel Yakadake, a typical onsen based Hotel, which was fairly empty when we were there - mid week, shoulder season. It is part of the same business, but a separate, upmarket offering. Individual units are constructed in the Gasshozukuri, pitched roof style, but without the thatched roof. They are amazingly spacious, with two levels, two bedrooms - one Western style and one with tatami mats and futons, which they will roll out for you while you have dinner. We recommend the futons. Each villa has a private hot mineral onsen outside. Or you can don your yukata and walk across to the hotel, where there is a great onsen. There is the normal separate male and female areas and also an outside mixed area. Fear not, if you go to this area you don a sort of loin cloth or shift as you go outside. The outside onsen is very nice and includes a grotto behind a waterfall, where you can soak while looking out at the autumn leaves. Breakfast and dinner are included and are exquisite. You eat in your own dining room, in the dining complex. The food is beautifully presented. We made life difficult by revealing we are pescatarians when we arrived. No problem, despite the fact this area is famous for its beef, they rapidly adapted and produced an alternative menu. The staff speak just enough English for it to be manageable. The young woman who served us was delightful. It is remote, but this is part of its charm. Do not be put off. You get on the bus at Takayama bus station, heading for Shinhotaka Ropeway and get off at stop 39. It is a big bus and your luggage goes underneath. No fear of missing your stop, they are displayed digitally up the front. You can buy a ticket at the start, or take the little ticket from the machine on the right as you get on the bus and then pay as you get off. The amount is displayed up front and is determined by where you get on - don't worry, like most things in Japan, it all just works. There is not much to do in the area, other than visit a bear park (not our thing), or take the bus further up the valleys to the Shinhotaka Ropeway (cable cars). Unfortunately there was a lot of cloud when we went, but if the day is clear, it should be spectacular. It seems to take cash only. However, if you feel like not doing much at all for a couple of days, this is the place. It deserves to be supported. We were the only guests for the first two nights, so it is certainly not overrun. Yes, it is pricey, but when you consider what you would pay for the meals in any restaurant capable of producing such food, you will understand the value.
