Shohakuen

A beautiful home nestled in a serene garden next to a small river. It was truly a tranquil place to stay.

Beautiful landscaping right next to a stream. Traditional Japanese style property with lovely sitting room, outside pavilion, relaxing outdoor bath away from the busyness of town.

It would be challenging to walk into town from this property. We were so grateful for the property manager who arranged taxis for pickup for us to and from the station.

Very traditional Japanese house close to Takayama city. Spacious house with beautiful garden and river next to it. 10 min drive to city center.

Kitchen is very basic and there is only one shower. Would have been nice to have two bathrooms as you can stay here with two families easily. Also, we were asked on the day of arrival what time we would check out, and were reminded several times during our stay to let them know as soon as possible. This was unnecessary.

Everything, this is a 10/10 ryokan. Location, size, facilities, host etc .It couldn't be better.

Nothing, everything was excellent.

Exceptionnel. On a été très bien accueillis. Elles sont adorables. Maison traditionnelle avec une superbe vue sur le jardin. Bain chaud extérieur génial avec le bruit de la rivière. Parking sur place.

管理人の人たちも優しく接して貰えましたし、お風呂も露天風呂で景色も最高でした。お風呂の時の川のせせらぎが良くさらに星空も最高でした。

特にありません。

I loved the bathtub outside perfect to relax. The house was very spacious for 2 people I would definitely recommend to bring 2 or 4 additional people. The garden was breathtaking.

I wish there was a bit more light in the main room for the evening. I was a bit sad that we didn't see the tinny waterfall beside the house I guess there is not enough water running down from the mountain like it used too. Anyways for those that dont have a car it will be hard to find an Uber or taxi. So make sure to book in advance so that you dont have to walk 50min down all the way to the city.
