Second stay just as satisfying as my first stay.
Pros:

This was my second stay in a year at this hotel. Laundry is avail on 3 floors (300Yen/wash; 100Yen/30 min dryer). Comfortable room with a sofa area. Nice location with easy walk to train/bus station (1 block); also easy walk to the other sights in town.

Pros:

住宿地點離高山車站很近,適合早晨需趕乘巴士前往其他地點的旅客,雙人房空間很大,且浴室有浴缸,非常舒適。早餐也非常豐盛好吃,因要趕巴士,也可配合旅客改為外帶方式。

Cons:

拉上窗簾時,室內燈光較昏暗。

Hôtel agréable mais trop occidentalisé.
Pros:

- Situation géographique.
- Baignoire en bois.
- Petit déjeuner compris dans le prix.
- Choisir l’heure du petit déjeuner permet de privatiser la salle.
- Rapport qualité prix

Cons:

- Petit déjeuner occidentalisé bien que copieux (il est dommage de ne pas proposer une option plus authentique japonaise).
- Clientèle exclusivement touristique.
- Absence de coton tige.

Convenient boutique hotel
Pros:

Small boutique western style hotel. Comfortable and convenient to the bus station and old town. Excellent coffee shop attached to the hotel with delicious breakfast. We stayed one night and then left for a night at an onsen in the Alps, before coming back. Hotel was able to store our luggage for a nominal fee (500 yen).

Cons:

Difficult to find the right light switches sometimes, but this is not uncommon in hotels.

Pros:

High quality! The food, the staff, the room everything was perfect.
It definitely was one of our top hotels, if not the best, during our one month Japan trip.
We highly recommend it

Based on our room, I would stay elsewhere.
Pros:

Sara at reception was wonderful. She goes above and beyond to help you and she does it all with a smile.

Cons:

If you do stay here do not book the deluxe room. The toilet area is literally 1 foot from the bed while the rest of the bathroom is on the other side of the couch/living room area. So unless you’re good with a toilet right next to your bed avoid this room. Also, you can’t see the TV from the bed, which isn’t a huge deal, but just something to be aware of in this room. But the couch in the tv area is not comfortable at all.

Pros:

A beautifully modernised take on a traditional Japanese house, featuring a very nice design. The rooms were clean and a good size.

Cons:

It was a bit of an adventure figuring out how to use the washing machine. The control panel was in Japanese, and the English instructions didn’t really match the labels on the machine. Google Translate added to the confusion more than it helped (as it sometimes does with Japanese), but after some trial and error, we eventually managed to get our clothes washed.
