This was the best place we stayed in Japan! The property is beautiful and the staff very friendly, but the best part is the meals. The chef is amazing! Dinner was the best meal I have ever had, and breakfast was amazing, too. Everything we had was so delicious. The shuttle makes it easy to visit Shirakawa-go. I highly recommend staying here!

The best

Can’t speak highly enough of our stay. They picked us up from the bus stop, fed us an elegant dinner and breakfast, and took us back in town. Best place we stayed in our trip to Japan.

This was one of the best hotel experiences I have had in Japan. The staff was courteous and attentive, and a special shoutout to the shuttle driver for picking us up from the side of the road after flagging him down. 10/10 I would recommend this hotel to anyone who wants a pleasant stay at Shirakawa-go and enjoy the surrounding natural beauty!

Our stay was amazing. The hospitality that we received made us feel welcome and comfortable. The staff communicated with us regarding dinner, and even though we arrived late to the hotel, they did their best to accommodate us. The hotel is located above Shirakawa-Go and you truly feel the nature as you are completely away from touristic locations. The wooden interior provides a rural charm that relaxes you. The onsen ,which is located outside, is perfect to relax from your travels. You only hear the nature and it allows you to connect with the location.

The staff was helpful and worked hard to communicate with us, especially considering our very limited Japanese. The shuttle they provided was convenient. The activities were fun! The only complaint was the common shower. We knew that going in, but would have preferred showers in the room.

Excellent stay near shirakawago

I stayed at the hotel after a trip to shirakawago village. There is a shuttle service from the bus station to the hotel. Dinner was amazing. I didn’t expect to be served 5 courses french cuisine in a small town like this. A few bugs problem, but it was understandable since the location of the hotel near the forest. Overall it was an excellent stay.

We stayed at the hotel for one night, as we needed a place to stay while visiting Shirakawa. It was much nicer than we expected. We were at the hotel at the end of April, which I think is off-season, so the hotel was quite empty. I assume it is much busier during the touristic seasons, with more opportunities to enjoy the surrounding nature and the activities offered by the resort. We did use the onsen, and it was very nice. We also liked the included dinner. The hotel provides a shuttle, but we didn't use it as we had a rental car. The staff was great, very helpful and accommodating.

Amazing!

I have travelled from Hokkaido to Okinawa, Tokyo to Hiroshima and stayed various types of hotels. This one is the best by far for the meal and environment. I am really surprised by the meal they serve, just like a Michelin starred restaurant. Thanks again to the cook and service stuff. They were really perfect. About environment, you stay in the middle of the woods. Green all around, fresh air and songs of birds. Its a bit far to Shirakawa-go (10-15 min by car) but the Hotel has free shuttle service to the main bus stop in the village. So... I would definately stay if I find a chance to come once again.

大人も楽しめるホテル

宿泊者には朝or日中のどちらかでガイドウォークが無料で利用できるサービスがありました。 普段行かないような雪山の中をスノーシュー履いて散歩が出来、動物の足跡を発見したり、木々の説明をガイドさんから聞けたりと、大人も楽しめるホテルでした。 雪舞う中での露天風呂も最高でした。

매우 친환경적인 호텔이에요

어린아이들과 함께 자연 탐구하기에는 매우 훌륭합니다. 어른들만 와서 지내는 것은 그저 그렇습니다. 목욕탕에 커다란 벌이 날아 들어와 실내탕 근처에서 맴돌고 있었습니다. 목욕하다 맨 몸에 커다란 벌에 쏘일까 걱정되어 얼른 나왔어요. 원래 노천탕의 벌레가 많은 것인가요? 물 위에 수영하는 날벌레들이 많아요. 다른 곳에서는 안보였던거 같은데... 다른 곳에선 제가 밤이나 아침에 가서 그랬는지 모르겠네요. 여기선 3시부터 오픈되는 탕에 4시에 갔는데도 많은 날벌레가 물 위에 둥둥 떠있었어요. 워낙 친환경이어서 그런 것 같아요
