Underrated hotel! The hotel reminds me of the nostalgic good old days. Tatami room is a bit small but clean and very comfortable. It housed many onsens both indoor and outdoor. 5 mins drive from the Ropeway and surrounded by mountains which make the place very scenic. Excellent quality and delicious kaiseki! Though they can't really communicate in English well but they are very helpful and friendly. This is a perfect place for people who search for peace and tranquility. We had a great time in this hotel. I left with many happy memories! Love it!

“Great dinner and breakfast package”

Onsen and rooms are fine but it’s the food that worth a 5 star rating! We ordered 1泊2食 package where dinner and breakfast were both excellent, especially if you like Hida beef. Hotel is located pretty far from the usual touristy spots and it took us at least 10-15min drive for nearby coffee shop… Więcej

Hotel is located pretty far from the usual touristy spots and it took us at least 10-15min drive for nearby coffee shops/restaurants; but in return you can enjoy quieter and less crowded hot springs. Best thing with the location is the proximity to the Shinhotaka ropeway. We managed to get there early enough to avoid the queues. 🤭

We had a disappointing stay at Hodakaso Yamano Hotel and wouldn’t recommend it unless significant changes are made. The hotel is very remote, located about 1.5 hours by bus from Takayama, with no restaurants or shops nearby. Without a car, getting around or finding alternative dining options is nearly impossible. The dinner experience was frustrating. You must pre-book dinner before arrival, which isn’t ideal for many travelers. The dinner menu itself is quite expensive. Breakfast, while beautifully presented, didn’t suit our tastes, and there wasn’t even coffee available—only in the lobby. The hotel is clearly outdated and in need of maintenance. The onsen is lovely, but even there we noticed safety concerns, like a loose cable dangerously close to the water in the mixed onsen. The rest of the property feels neglected, and overall cleanliness (like dust in the rooms) is lacking. Communication was another challenge. Most staff don’t speak English, which makes it very difficult for non-Japanese travelers. Only the restaurant staff spoke English and were genuinely friendly and helpful. Overall, this hotel is not suitable for international guests. The remote location, limited dining options, language barrier, and the need for maintenance make it hard to justify the price.
