Cons:

Das normale japanische Onsen war leider sehr klein, Sauna sowie Outdoor Onsen waren gemischte Onsen, sodass dies nur mit Bikini/ Badehose möglich war. Man hätte sich gegen Aufpreis einen leihen können. Das führte aber dazu, dass auch im normalen Onsen Leute im Bikini waren. Somit insgesamt sehr touristisch und unauthentisch. Für den Preis waren in anderen Hotels Sauna und Outdoor Onsen jeweils bei Männern und Frauen separat zugänglich….

Overall excellent stay
Pros:

We had a family suite which was 2 adjacent bedrooms. We had tatami flooring with 2 futon beds. Beds were incredibly comfortable. The public mixed onsen was great. There is a public mixed sauna onsite too. Breakfast was great with a very wide range of foods.

Staff were all very helpful and attentive.

Takayama is a small enough place so everywhere is within walking distance. It was less than 10 mins walk into the centre.

Cons:

The pillows were so hard, it was like sleeping on a cement block. There was nowhere to hang clothes, towels etc. This could be easily sorted with some hooks. It baffles me as to how and why hotels overlook such a simple solution to storage.
