"Experiencia espectacular cerca de Takayama"

10.0

Muy bonita experiencia. Nos sentimos muy acogidos por parte del personal del alojamiento. Nuestra habitación tenía unas vistas preciosas al río. Era amplia, con la zona para dormir y otra con la mesa camilla. Cena y desayuno espectaculares, estilo japonés. Onsen privado de 50minutos muy agradable. Muy cómodo de acceder desde Takayama ya que el alojamiento ofrece un transfer gratuito. Sin dudarlo, de las mejores experiencias en nuestro viaje a Japón.

"El mejor sitio de nuestras vidas"

10.0

No se podría describir con palabras las sensaciones que sientes en Wanosato, es un todo. El paraje, el personal, las instalaciones con todas las comodidades y a la vez como si estuvieras en una casa de hace varios siglos atrás, la hospitalidad de su personal y su dueño amenazando todas las noches al calor del fuego central donde puedes degustar sake y de un buen rato en grupo. Es increíble wanosato!

Por decir algo, que esta algo retirado del núcleo poblacional principal de Takayama y dependes del transporte que te proporciona el propio hotel cada día, lo que te resta algo de libertad a ña hora de moverte pero no es mayor inconveniente.

"Magical"

10.0

Staying at Wanosato Ryokan was one of the most unforgettable experiences of my entire Japan trip. The hospitality here goes beyond anything I’ve ever experienced. The staff treated us with so much warmth, and the highlight was an 86-year-old gentleman who surprised us with sake service and magic tricks. It was one of those rare travel moments that becomes a core memory. The room was beautiful, peaceful, and incredibly cozy. Every meal was thoughtful and delicious, and the entire property feels like a hidden sanctuary in Northern Japan. I left feeling so cared for and so grateful. This ryokan is truly special — worth every moment and every mile.

"Beautiful stay by the river"

Breakfast was delicious and so was dinner. The room was pretty big and we enjoyed lounging by the windows. The baths were beautiful as well. They were very thoughtful with making sure we were okay.

"A great place to stay - welcoming and personal"

9.0

From first minute you have a real warm feeling of being welcome. You ‚believe‘ it to be authentic old age Japan which is a great experience for travelers. GrandPa‘s entertainment in the evening is wonderfully personal.
