A delightful stay with a view

We had a spacious suite, perfect for a family, featuring a modern design and a lovely hinoki tub. The location was unbeatable—just a short walk from the train station and the charming old town. The cafe served fantastic coffee, and the breakfast was definitely a highlight with a tasty panini and smoothie.

Unfortunately, we experienced a communication issue regarding bedding arrangements. We booked for four but initially received only two made beds, which required some back and forth to resolve. The faint smell from the kitchen was sometimes noticeable.

Eph Takayama is an outstanding boutique hotel, with an excellent restaurant offering superb meals. The room I stayed in was quiet, clean, and very well-designed, with a relaxing hinoki tub. I highly recommend opting for the breakfast. the panini, salad, and mixed berry banana smoothie were exceptional. The hotel's proximity to the train station and old town made it an ideal location for business and leisure alike.

The cozy cafe downstairs served awesome coffee. The room was spacious and super clean with great beds! Only downside was the unattended luggage after checkout. 😕

would come here again

Loved the wooden bathroom! The twin room had air conditioning, a flat-screen TV, and a cozy seating area. Super clean and modern with a nice view. The beds were comfy, and I appreciated the yukata. The location was perfect, just 3 min to the train station. Breakfast included a tasty panini and smoothie, real good start to the day.

We loved our stay! The suite was spacious with a beautiful wooden tub for relaxing after exploring. Super convenient location—just a short walk to the old town. Breakfast options were fresh and tasty, especially the paninis. Minor note, the quilt could be softer. Overall, fantastic vibe!

The Suite with City View felt so spacious with three comfy beds and a lovely bathroom that was like a mini spa. The shower and square bath made unwinding easy after a full day of exploring. Great coffee and matcha lattes from the cafe downstairs. The location was ideal. a short stroll to both the old town and the train station made getting around a breeze. We did encounter an issue with our reservation concerning bedding arrangements, which took some time to resolve. The breakfast was healthy and delicious, although reserving a breakfast time in advance was a bit unusual. It affected our spontaneity for planning our mornings. The cafe's closing time could be a downside for late returns, but that didn’t overshadow our overall enjoyment.

Quaintly fresh and genuinely attentive hospitality with thoughtful amenities.

1. Excellent location, 5 min walking to station
2. Spa-like bath for relaxation
3. Convenient laundry facilities nearby
4. Delicious breakfast with great variety

1. Smell from kitchen occasionally noticeable

It was a perfect match for a short visit in Takayama with a good price-quality ratio. The comfortable beds made for a decent stay after a long day exploring. Be sure to check out the quiet cafe for a nice coffee before heading out.

After a long day exploring Hida-Takayama, we loved unwinding in the spacious suite's beautiful bathroom with a soak. The hotel’s prime location let us easily stroll to the old town, and we enjoyed delicious coffee from the café downstairs.

In my wife’s opinion, the hotel should offer larger rooms for families.

Had an awesome stay with friends! The location was perfect for exploring, just a short walk from the station. After visiting the morning markets and trying some local sake, we loved relaxing in the wooden bathroom. The staff was super helpful and even offered umbrellas during the rain. Don't miss the cozy cafe downstairs—great coffee! Highly recommend the breakfast!

The quilt was a bit rough, which wasn't ideal for sleeping comfort.

Can just recommend for a momentary visit

Excellent location, friendly staff, the spa-like bath made our stay relaxing after a long day of exploring, and the restaurant offered a delicious and satisfying breakfast.

We stayed in the Suite with City View for 2 nights. The room was huge, with three big comfy beds! The bathroom felt like a mini spa with both a shower and a stylish square bath. Relaxing after our day was the best. The cafe downstairs served amazing coffee and yummy healthy breakfasts. We had to pick a breakfast time, though, which was a bit different. Overall, it was super chill and absolutely loved the vibe here.

Had a great time staying here with friends. After a day exploring, we enjoyed a relaxing bath and savored some of Takayama's famous sake.

The quilt was a bit rough, not as smooth as I had hoped. Also, the faucet in the bathroom was rather small, making it inconvenient to use. But overall, these were minor issues that didn’t overshadow our experience.
