Wonderful stay.

We had a wonderful stay. The staff were so friendly and helpful. They were happy to make restaurant reservations for you. He traditional Japanese meal was very nice and they catered for my dislike of pork and beef. The onsen was lovely and the room was beautiful. If I was returning to Takayama, I would stay again without hesitation.

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.
