- Sydney (10/5): Wonderful Stay for our Honeymoon - Amazing stay, they made us feel special and really welcomed us (even with a small gift) as we stayed here two nights for our honeymoon. There isn’t too much in the vicinity to do (walkable distance less than half an hour or an hour) but still a very beautiful and comfortable property I really enjoyed staying at with my husband.

Not to mention the private bath with sauna room. I would definitely come back for another stay at Takachiho.
- Wai Ming (6/5): - CP值不高,一泊二食有點失望,食物水準麻麻,唯房間有獨立溫泉是唯一可取之處,房間也算大但嫌設備有點舊,唯清潔度幾好,職員有禮,但價錢略貴,但並不是預期中的物有所值
- ?? (10/5): - アメニティグッズも充実しており、何と言っても食事が美味しく提供されることとスタッフの心配りが心地よかったです。

- TSUJI (10/5): - 食事が大変素晴らしかったです。一部屋一部屋、プライベートスペースがきちんとあり、静かに過ごせました。
宿の方もとても親切で、早く着いてしまったので、電話したら、荷物を取りに来ていただいて、そのまま神社をめぐりました。
事情があり、二日目の朝食をとれなかったのですが、代わりにおむすびを3個ずつ作ってくださり、それが実においしかったです。
絶対に、また泊まりに行きたい宿です。今度は連泊してみたいです。連泊したら、夕飯のメニューが変わるのでしょうか?それも楽しみです。
ありがとうございました。
- ??? (10/5): - また泊まり行きたくなりました
- Verified traveler (10/5): - 滞在中は、程よい距離感での行き届いた気配りを感じられ、とても快適に過ごすことができました。
季節柄、お部屋にコタツがあったのは、嬉しかったです。
用意されたアメニティも、メイク落としからマウスウォッシュまで、何も持っていかなくても良いのではと思うほどに、充実していました。
食事の時間は、チェックインの際に、夕食、朝食共に、3択の中から希望の時間を選べます。
夕食の時間は、食事の後に夜神楽を見に行けるように、少し早めに設定されていました。(私達は、18時を選択。)
もしまた高千穂を訪れる事があれば、迷わずリピートしたいと思えるお宿です。
- SEIICHIRO (8/5): - スタッフの気遣いと対応がとても良くお部屋も
- Verified traveler (10/5): 最高でした - 行く途中にトラブル発生でチェックインが19時までが遅くなりました。食事も時間内に間に合わず食事なしも覚悟していましたが、丁寧にお疲れでしようと優しく声かけていただき、最高の食事で疲れも消えました。スタッフの皆様の心遣いに感謝でした。
- HIROKO (8/5): - 食事が最高に良かったです。お客さんへの対応も良く清潔で又来ようと思いました。
- めっくる (10/5): - スタッフさんの対応も素晴らしく
お食事は大変満足でした。
- Verified traveler (8/5): 飲み放題お薦め! - チェックインからアウトまで、心地良く過ごすことが出来ました。
夕食時のドリンク飲み放題は、とってもお得でお薦めです!
お料理も夕食、朝食ともに美味しくいただけたのですが、もう少しゆっくりめの時間設定があると嬉しいです(夕食)。
お風呂が温泉ではなかったのが、ちょっと残念でした。
- PUI HONG (10/5): highly recommended - The hotel is very caring to the guests. I travel with my mother who is a wheelchair user, the hotel made excellent arrangement for us and I am very grateful for that.
The room is bigger than we thought, and it is cozy and clean, coupled with a team of good staff, just a perfect stay
- Verified traveler (10/5): - 色んなところで、心配りが、行き届いていて、まさに、おもてなしを満喫した。
- Verified traveler (10/5): - 気持ち良く対応いただき、快適に過ごせました。
- Verified traveler (10/5): - お宿の食事もサービスも、暖かくほっとするお宿でした。食べきれないデザートを夜神楽から帰ってくるタイミングでお部屋まで届けて頂いたり、みなさんの笑顔に癒されるました。 ただ高千穂峡から、思いのほか離れていたのが残念でしたが、これは当方のミスですね。大浴場がない分、最高のおもてなしして頂きました。
- RilakkumaV25 (10/5): Excellent in All Ways! Highly Recommended! - My husband and I was visiting the Takachiho area back in May for my birthday. We never have stayed in this area before and we think we should try. After doing some research online, we have decided on this one and we are not disappointed but very impressed in fact.
This is a boutique ryokan with only several rooms. It is around 5 mins drive from the Takachiho Gorge and is located not on the main road but a very quiet street (please make sure you check the gps carefully or you may miss it). Each rooms are in its individual house inside the ryokan area. Our room/house is in the very inside and when they are showing us the way from reception, we both feel like we are having a holiday on a tropical island. The settings, the design and the deco are making us feel like we are having a tropical vacation lol. Very relaxing.
The room is a very modern beautiful designer-type Japanese style room. The room size is huge too!!! And they have indoor bath (not onsen though I suppose) and a very spacious bathroom area (they even have provided guests their own amenities kit/case like those that you received when flying business class. First time I received such a thing despite I have stayed in different Japanese ryokan for more than 20 times. Very thoughtful!). Their beds are very comfy too!! No complain at all!!
Talking about service, yes, they provided excellent service! Their staffs are always wearing a smile and they are very polite and are taking very good care of us. They even have celebrated my birthday by providing a very yummy birthday cake and a mini birthday billboard. Their restaurant served good yummy food, too.
We have enjoyed our stay a lot, especially the price isn’t too expensive given this kind of high quality room and service. Excellent and highly recommended!!! Although it is not those traditional Japanese ryokan style, you won’t be disappointed and it’s worth giving it a try if you are around that area and want to have an overnight stay.
- Verified traveler (8/5): 誕生日旅行に最適な宿 - 接客対応も素晴らしくお料理もとても美味しかったです。
お部屋もとても快適でアメニティーの心遣いもあり良かったです。
お風呂も内風呂と外風呂があり最高でした。外風呂はやはり外で雪が降っていたのもありお湯の温度はぬるめでした。ほとんど内風呂で入ってました。
チェックアウトの際誕生日だったのですがお誕生日ですよね?!と言われワインを二本も頂きました。あれはびっくりで嬉しかったです。
- Verified traveler (10/5): - 全ての時間を笑顔で対応して頂きました。
部屋のお風呂も最高でした。
- NahanniRafter (10/5): Luxury, Super Scenery, and Folklore Too! - My husband and I were delighted with this ryokan. We were traveling with Japanese friends. They had Japanese style rooms, we had a western style room. We 5 all received excellent service. Our room was very comfortable, beautifully decorated, with excellent amenities. The private onsen tub, very easy to get in and out of was welcome. Each of us was invited to choose our own kimono and yukata robe. Geta were also supplied.
The dinner and breakfast were very tasty, with great variety.
After dinner a hotel van took ust to the "Takachiho Yokagura" which was a very entertaining and interesting folkloric performance. English language hand outs explained the story and the 4 "acts." It was raining, so each of us had an umbrella supplied by the hotel. Furthermore, hotel staff held umbrellas to shelter us as we folded our umbrellas to get in the van.
The hotel is within perhaps a 5 or 10 minute drive to the tremendously scenic Takachiho Gorge.
It was a great stay. I would recommend it highly.
- FrancesR521 (10/5): superb ryokan with own individual hot baths - The service in this little ryokan was wonderful and personalised from start to finish. The room was gorgeous, spacious and very comfortable. The bathroom was set up like public baths with the shower then the hot tub and outside a little dressing room with the cosmetics table. There was even an individual little walled garden with my room which the bath faced onto. In the foyer there was free tea, coffee and chocolate. The gardens were lovely and each room felt very private Breakfast and kaiseki dinner were both excellent. the ryokan is very close to the shrine where the Yokagura dance is performed and not far from the gorge.
- Verified traveler (8/5): とても良い - 離れで専用風呂も付き、大いに寛げた。夕食、朝食共に美味しく満足でした。夜神楽の送迎もあり便利でした。アクセス改善のために宿付近の詳しい地図を宿案内につけてほしい。
- Verified traveler (6/5): - 高千穂峡のボートに乗るのであれば、朝いちばんに
ボート乗り場に行った方が良いと思います。高千穂峡に泊まるならお薦めします。料理は美味しいのですが、コスパにやや不満。
- Hiro Room (10/5): #夕食#離れの宿#高千穂 - 夕食が素晴らしい。種類も多く、地の物をふんだんに使った料理でした。
- Itsuro (8/5): 落ち着ける宿 - 高千穂を廻るにはとても良い立地でした。
部屋も個別で、とても快適でした。部屋にお風呂があるのもとても良かったです。
仕方がないかもしれませんが、内風呂内の浴槽内上部にカビあり、内側の上部縁の部分なので、掃除が難しかったのかなと思いました。それが気になった位で、あとは、大変気に入りました。静かで、またおとづれたいと思います。
- abbyl892 (10/5): Excellent Service - I stayed there for one night with my husband last week. The service was excellent and all the staffs were helpful. I can communicate with them in simple English. There are eight suites and only two suites in western style. I requested the western style suite which was closed to the reception area. The suite was clean, spacious and cozy. During my stay, most of the guests were Japanese and we were the only foreigners. The food for dinner and breakfast were good and fresh especially the local beef. There was a hot bath instead of onsen, but the water was hot all the time during my stay. Overall, it was a unforgettable experience.
- lolikia (8/5): Nice modern Ryokan - This Ryokan is located in a residential area. It is a dry Ryokan ie there is no onsen. All in all, although price is not cheap, it was ok. The room is like a little villa - spacious, clean and comfortable. Each room had nice luxury touches - scented diffuser, table with seats had heated mat, private heated tub with some wine infusion to make yr skin soft and branded toiletries. Service was very good. The moment you are seated for dinner, the staff will offer you a blanket to put on your lap. Food was good. I love the melt in the mouth beef steak! It was the highlight of our dinner. Breakfast was also delicious.
- Ben_Perashi (10/5): A wonderful place to rest with great service - We stayed at kamigakure for two nights as part of a driving tour of Kyushu on our honeymoon. We found the service exceptional and warm, our guesthouse immaculate and the food delicious and varied. If you feel like splashing out a bit for a hide away stay in Takachiho, then Kamigakure is your place.
Of particular note, was how lovely all the staff were. We speak a bit of Japanese, usually enough to get by, but it wasn't even really needed as most of the staff spoke English well and were interested in learning in the same way we were to improve our Japanese.
The experience overall was great, we were well taken care of.
- greenwheat (6/5): Not bad, but also not worth it - I wouldn't call this a ryokan since it's more like a modern hotel room which happens to have a tatami living room. The room is spacious and clean with modern amenities, but that's pretty much it. The highlight of the entire room is that it has a lot of electric sockets (I mean over 10!) so there's no need to wait in line to charge the zillion gadgets that you travel with these days.
The in-room private onsen is an absolute disappointment since it's not from running hot spring water and it's essentially a rectangular bath tub, located in a large steamy bathroom.
One good thing about this hotel is the location. It's close to all the sights, but as other reivewers already mentioned, Takachiho is a small and compact area and all the sights are pretty close to each other, so getting around is not really an issue anywhere.
The food is not really worth mentioning, it's filling and not bad, but they tend to rush every dish to your table as soon as possible regardless of the order (which I am quite surprised since Japanese are supposed to be really picky about these things) and it kills the mood.
As a hotel, there is nothing wrong with it, it's a decent property but it is quite misleading to call it a ryokan while both the hardware and software fails to deliver that level of hospitality. And the room is actually quite expensive, so in terms of value for money, it's really not what I expect to get given what I paid for.
Oh, and they didn't even bother to offer to help you with your luggage (both times at check-in and check-out), which again is a bit odd for a Japanese hotel.. oh well...
