Roadside Starion Okuise Odai Tours

The check in process was quick and seamless. I used a luggage delivery service and my luggage was waiting in the lobby at my arrival. The woman at the desk was pleasant and helpful with tips for my stay. The room was clean and contained slippers as well as compartments at the door for my arrival. The kitchen has dishes and an ice tray in the freezer!! As a family of 4, we appreciated the large closet, separate toilet and bath area as well as the sliding wall. There is a beautiful garden acoss the street and many shops within walking distance. I appreciated the quiet of the area and the balcony area for the apartment. The only downside is the difficulty in obtaining a luggage delivery service for the next leg of my trip. But I would definitely visit this property again.

When staying in Takayama, do yourself a favor and pick this hotel. It’s very unassuming and not luxurious, but they think about every single detail you can imagine. From the amenities (free laundry room, kitchenware, snacks, drinks, they even left a bag on my door with extra towels and other stuff when I chose the no cleaning option for the day), to the outstanding included breakfast and the attentive staff, I found myself very happy with my choice even though I stayed in other luxury and more aesthetically appealing hotels throughout my Japan trip. Don’t get me wrong, the hotel is nice, but the rooms have an Airbnb more than hotel feeling. The location is also unbeatable very close to the station and just a short walk from the main streets and shops.
