What an amazing place this is!! Everyone was telling me that I needed to stay in a Ryokan while I was in Japan and the Asunaro was the PERFECT place to experience a traditional Japanese inn. Right from when we arrived at the hotel, the staff were welcoming and could not do enough to make our stay fabulous. The room itself was spacious and immaculately clean and it had every amenity you needed. The breakfast experience was above and beyond with incredible food choices and service. The entire experience at this inn felt authentic and amazing and I cannot recommend it highly enough.

A wonderful traditional Japanese-style stay

A wonderful stay from the moment we arrived to warm and cheerful greetings. Great introduction to traditional Japanese stay, especially for anyone who has stayed in regular hotels to this point. Terrific - and huge - Japanese breakfast to see us on our travels.

The Ryokan was only short walk fron train and bus station and also walked to all attractions. The breakfast were excellent. Their kimonos were so comfortable. We loved the authentic Japanese dinner, which was the highlight of our Takayama trip. The room was so spacious and clean. We also liked the onsen.

This was fantastic traditional lodging. Our rooms were spacious and the public bath was an incredibly special extra perk. We were our kimonos and yukatas to the bath. The dining for both dinner and breakfast require reservations and are well worth it. Our only negative experience was the front desk telling us that the restaurant we wanted to eat at did not require a reservation, but discovering upon arrival that reservations are obligatory.

Charming Ryokan!

A beautiful, home-like ryokan that's a bit quirky but still traditional. The family who runs it is delightful and helpful. Very conveniently located -- about a 10-minute walk from the old town. You can't go wrong staying here!

The room was very large, comfortable, and well decorated. The staff provided excellent service. For example, with another guest accidentally took our umbrella from a common storage area, staff drove us to a store and purchased a replacement umbrella for us. We could not have asked for more. The ryokan was within walking distance of the train station and the old town area. The breakfast was well prepared with a good variety for both the Japanese and Western Style offerings. We are very glad we stayed at Ryokan Asunaro and will recommend it to anyone planning to stay in Takayama.
