Some staff were foreigners and they all speak English which makes communication easier. They were helpful and courteous. The room has everything that we needed. Nice western beds to sleep on.
We vwey much enjoyed experiencing a Japanese ryokan and onsen.
Meals were unique and the attention to every single detail was impressive.
Lastly, the staff were incredibly helpful and friendly, especially Seigo.
My family and I had a wonderful stay at Hoshokaku. We splurged for the room with the private onsen on deck and were so happy we did - it is well worth it to have your own private bath and the views of Takayama are amazing. Hoshokaku is a beautiful ryokan and service was impeccable. We enjoyed our meals in the dining area - which were delicious. The ryokan is up on a hill so it is a bit of a hike up back from old town but definitely manageable. We loved our time at Hoshokaku and would love to return.

This is a nice ryokan with a good staff, welcoming and helpful. The inn is on the simple side, which does not refer to the spare Japanese tradition but to its now being a bit dated. The dining is as one can expect in a ryokan, thus traditional Japanese. The area around is a lovely park above the inn and the old town, touristy but attractive, directly below. The price is what one expects in Japan, thus expensive relative to comparable lodging elsewhere. Takayama is worth visiting, and this inn is a good base.
Personale cortese, stanza impeccabile. Onsen favolose, sia interne che esterne. Cena e colazione stile giapponese di alta qualità. Rapporto qualità/prezzo davvero top.
Un'esperienza da sogno!
Al nostro arrivo, lo staff ci ha accolto nella hall. Hanno sistemato le nostre scarpe, ci hanno preso gli zaini e ci hanno fatto accomodare nella lobby per illustrarci le regole dell'hotel.
Hanno acconsentito ad anticipare l'orario della nostra colazione, pur di non farcela perdere.
La camera era da sogno. Una vista meravigliosa sulla città.
Abbiamo trovato dei comodi pigiami/calze da indossare liberamente in hotel.
Menzione speciale per l'onsen: dotato di ogni confort... lì il tempo si ferma e davvero si riesce a staccare la spina! Un sogno!
La cena kaiseri è stata servita nella sala: bellissima! Lo staff ancora una volta è stato gentile e premuroso. Tutto ottimo e servito perfettamente.
Bellissimo, speriamo di tornarci presto!!
1- Con lo carisima que es la habitación, nos cobraron un "impuesto de baño" al irnos!!!!!!! Increible
2- el desayuno lo dejamos completo, no tenian cafe ni nada. Nos dijeron que a las 8 de la mañana ya no daban. Un desayuno japones que daba fatiga.
Es increíblemente caro para esto.
