KAYA - Travel Easy, Explore Freely in Hida Tayakama!, hotel in Takayama

Situated in Takayama in the Gifu region with Fuji Folk Museum and Yoshijima Heritage House nearby, KAYA - Travel Easy, Explore Freely in Hida Tayakama! features accommodation with access to a sauna.

Amazing location between the bus station/train station and the old town, close to lots of restaurant options. Incredibly clean (the shower absolutely sparkled!) and spacious for two people. Sleeping in the loft was quite warm in July, even with the AC on, but that is no fault of the property, just something to note. We really appreciated having a washer/dryer! Detergent was already preloaded in the machine, so we didn’t need our own.

    Lovely host. Was very welcoming and the rooms were very clean and felt traditional. They let us leave our bags there after we had checked out so we could explore Takayama more which was nice. Well located within a short walk from stores, the bus station and the nice areas with all the little shops.

    The host family is very welcoming, the home has so much history and makes you feel a part of something special. It was an amazing experience especially with the host sharing all her knowledge on the local area and the food that was made for us, foraged from the mountain. An amazing experience that will not be forgotten .

    The location, the place and the host. Location wise, it is not very close to the highly touristy spot but just within a few minutes walk away. It allows to enjoy a quiet and peaceful morning without missing out on the experience of the old town Takayama. The homestay is very clean and aesthetically pleasing too. I personally really liked the mini garden outside, a nice spot to enjoy your morning coffee. The host is also very responsive and accommodating. We even helped us get back the stuff we left behind. Highly recommended!
