Popular Takachiho 4-star Hotels

The hotel is located close to the bus terminal and it is a 7-minute walk to arrive, but the lady boss said that she could send her a car to pick her up! After we checked in, we went to dinner. The lady boss called us to reserve a table beforehand, and then took us to the restaurant by car, and asked the restaurant to call her after our meal and send a car to pick us up to the hotel; because the next day was a weekday, there was no circulating bus After visiting various tourist areas, she arranged a car to take us to Takachiho Gorge, and asked us to walk into a product store there after completing the trip to find the person in charge to call her and send a car to pick us up to the next tourist spot ~ the small train station, and it will be free during the period. It’s really heartwarming to help us prepare a bamboo leaf rice ball for each of us! ! Very friendly and friendly proprietress, of course she drove us to the bus terminal when we finally left the hotel! 😁 The room size is relatively small, there is no problem for 2 people, and it is a little crowded for 3 people! There are small desserts in the room! There is a separate toilet but no separate bathroom, but the hotel has a small hot spring where you can take a shower by the way! The breakfast is a Japanese breakfast, very delicious, and a staff member sings Japanese songs for entertainment! The hotel is not big, it looks a bit like a homestay, but the enthusiasm of the proprietress is full of warmth, making everything unimportant, not a problem, it deserves full marks! ! 👍🏼

When we close our eyes and imagine the quintessential Japanese luxury ryokan, Takachiho Ryokan Shinsen is among the first properties that springs to our mind. It represents everything awesome about the best ryokans with almost zero drawbacks, and we departed from Shinsen awestruck at how perfect every aspect of our stay was. From the incredible Omotenashi service, gorgeous gardens, architectural elegance, spacious and beautiful villa room, mind-blowing kaiseki cuisine to the terrific private open-air Onsen bath, everything about Shinsen emphatically screams ”destination ryokan.” Shinsen is a family-owned property with a total of just 15 rooms among 3 separate areas: the Honkan (main), Bekkan and Hanare. They are within 1-minute walking distance form one another, and each area has its own unique character - the landscaping is fascinating, as well as the various private dining rooms that are in each building. For instance, in front of the Honkan main entrance is a dry rock garden that is reminiscent of the famed Ryoan-ji in Kyoto, while in the Bekkan it has that plus a variety of perfectly manicured vegetation as well as a small, red-painted traditional-style bridge. The private dining rooms each have its own character as well as views out of the window; we especially loved the view from one of the Bekkan ”Ko****su” rooms during our dinner on the second evening - the window faces the garden, which is lit up from the ground, resulting in a mesmerizing view of the rock garden patterns, mysterious trees and the pretty red bridge. For every meal (whether it's for breakfast or dinner), they escorted us from our room to a different private dining room located in various locations throughout the property. We spent all 3 nights in a room called ”Manyo,” a detached villa that was located in the Hanare section of Shinsen. Ms. Kumi Sato, the charming and elegant ”Okami-san” (Proprietress) mentioned that Manyo is the best room at the property. It's a generous 100m² in size, and thoroughly modern with all of the creature comforts that one would expect at a top-flight luxury hotel. Manyo's room consisted of a bedroom with two double Western-style beds, a living room with a sofa, coffee table and a large, flat-screen television, and a Japanese-style tatami room as well. It's an open floor plan, although each section of the room can be closed off by sliding the walls shut for privacy (or peace and quiet.) Very versatile! The Villa had a large patio with a beautiful zen-style rock garden beyond it. Off to the side is an outdoor, free-flowing Onsen (hot springs) bath made of Hinoki wood. Next to the Onsen (and inside the Villa) is the vanity, toilet and indoor (regular) bath and shower. The layout of the Villa, as well as the furnishings and decor was all top-notch - the perfect setting to have a lengthy, relaxing stay in the Villa should you opt not to explore the Takachiho area. If there is one minor nitpick, it has to do with the lack of dual sinks,

As Takachiho Gorge is comparatively hard to get to we felt much better staying in Takachiho for a night. And it's great to find a modern hotel in Takachiho, the front desk was nice and helpful, note that it is such a small town and dining options are not a lot so I would recommend have dinner and breakfast at the hotel. Hotel has a large parking lot and breakfast is great (a bit wait in the morning during peak time)

I stayed in a Japanese style room. It's a really nostalgic national lodging house with a tatami desk, TV, and tea chest. You'll have to lay out your own futon, which is probably a good thing because unlike inns, you can't enter your room without permission. It had just stopped raining and I could see a rainbow from the terrace. Takachiho is a short walk from Takachiho Shrine, where you can enjoy Kagura at night, and you can also rent cushions. Women will be happy to have individually packaged facial cleansers and cosmetics. We also enjoyed local cuisine such as comparing the tastes of Takachiho beef. This hotel is convenient for sightseeing in Takachiho Gorge.

I stayed here to visit Takachiho gorge, which I wanted to go to for the first time on my first trip with him in the spring of 2016. Reasonable and good location, I was going to make a reservation alone, but it was a very memorable trip with the pleasant response of the staff from the time of reservation to the check-out. I remember the night Kagura and the way to night Kagura, and I used a taxi for the rest of the time, but I am satisfied that everything is smooth in the easy to access location. The breakfast was at the end of the breakfast, but the staff was told to be slow without a disgusting face, and both of them remained in memory. I was going to leave the review immediately after my stay, but it was a little earlier experience, but I thought it would be a reference and posted it. After that, he married him and Miyazaki is still a place for two people to remember, including this one.

Typical bed and breakfast, sleeping floor (TT meters). The Japanese breakfast is good. Near Takachiho Shrine (three minutes on foot). 1.5 km from Takachiho Gorge. There are not many stores nearby, and the goods in two small convenience stores are also limited.

Location It may be a little difficult to understand because it is adjacent to the private house, but there is a signboard, and if you go to the car navigation street, you can get there safely. Check in When you stop the car, the staff will help you carry your luggage immediately. When booking online, when you enter the address, etc., you can check all the printed accommodation registration papers and sign them, so the procedure is fast! I received a bag of gobochi. Room large! A relaxed entrance, a seat with a cushion and a table with a wide 々, a well-cleaned toilet, washroom, bathroom. The bed spring was good, and the futon was also able to sleep well in fukafuka. Dinner I enjoyed all the dishes and dishes using seasonal ingredients. Color alcohol 々 was offered a drink aracult buffet for guests who wanted to enjoy. I ordered it to be good if I had more than 3 cups. I might have drunk a little more if I didn't go to Kagura. Breakfast at the same table where I had dinner last night. * * for rice is dark and fresh! I want to have it again. I also saw guests who were offered Western food. Is it a customer for a consecutive night? Others It is a walking distance to Kagura place, but you can pick up and drop off. You can rent a bench coat for cold prevention. This is located in the lobby, so you can borrow it when you go to Kunimigaoka early in the morning to see the cloud sea. (I couldn't see the cloud sea). Staff / service Friendly but professional service. It is an inn that I want to stay again.

Reception: On the day of check-in, the cold current was attacked, and the weather was particularly cold, but when I arrived at the hotel, I saw the host standing at the door to greet me, and even helped guide the parking with the cold wind. The whole was deeply moved. Breakfast & dinner: I don't know if this is the legendary ”Japanese Kaiseki” cuisine? As far as I am a foreigner, it must be! The glutinous rice is matched with seasonal/local handmade side dishes, non-staple food, etc., colorful and delicious feasts, Every dish feels the intention of the host's preparation, and the content is introduced one by one when serving, which is a very special feeling. Soaking: although the wooden bath is not big, but there is a kind of quaint beauty, the environment is clean and tidy, the only fly in the ointment is that the face paper, moisturizing products, etc. on the dressing table of the female soup have long been used, but not replenished in time, there are no other shortcomings; After soaking in the hot spring back to the room, I was surprised to find that the host carefully prepared red bean soup, not only warm the stomach but also warm the heart. Overall: If you go to Tianyanhu, it is recommended to stay here for one night. Not only the location is good, you can see the Tianyanhu Shrine when you open the window. You can also stroll to Tiananheyuan early in the morning to fully enjoy the special local scenery. In addition, the hotel's intimate service and delicious meals, It is definitely a different experience from Western restaurants.

At check-in, I was charged a higher amount than the room rate I confirmed at the time of my phone reservation. When I asked why, I was booking in a single room, but a semi double room was prepared. This was vacant in a single room at the time of the telephone reservation, and it was 5000 yen (tax included) per night, and I made a reservation after confirming that I would accept the reservation. On the other hand, the receptionist said, ”the hotel has not selected the type of room for the customer at the time of booking. Because it is a hotel with a small number of rooms, I will assign a room that is vacant on the day and stay. If it was thought that it was confirmed in a single room, the customer might have been mistaken in the telephone exchange between the hotel staff and the customer. ” If you book a hotel and arrive, you don't know whether it's a room of 5000 yen or a room of 5900 yen, and there are many choices for guests who convince you by such a reservation method. Anyway, this reservation confirmed that there was a vacancy in the single room at the time of the telephone reservation, and I was talking on the phone with the person in charge to make a reservation in the single room. I told you that it was not a mistake here, but I said, ”If you don't like this hotel so much, go there because you will introduce another hotel.” Finally, I was able to refund the difference to seem troublesome, but I was sad that it was a response that did not try to hear the argument at all. As for this, it was a room chosen after comparing multiple inn and reservation method, so it was unbearable that the accommodation fee and the type of room were changed only for the convenience of the hotel. Also, I asked in advance to be able to leave my luggage to arrive in the morning, but when I arrived on the day, there was no one in the lobby and I went out because I was able to use it urgently. Please leave your luggage behind the counter.”

A long-established inn in the downtown area of Takachiho Town. Bus terminals and Takachiho Shrine from Nobeoka are slopes, but a few minutes walk away. Yamazaki convenience store is also nearby. Although it is a long-established store, you can feel the traces of various renovations. The toilet in the room was small but with a washlet. The difficulty is that there is no elevator. I still want an elevator to go back and forth between the １ floor and ３ floors. On the other hand, although it was dinner, the dishes centered on local dishes were lined up, and the sukiyaki of Miyazaki beef was delicious.
