"Had a great time at SOKI, the staff was very friendly and good at English, the room was nice and clean and I had everything I needed and it was very spacious. The location was also really nice and in short distance of the castle and other picture perfect places. "

"Very nice Hotel in a good location."

"We had a fantastic stay at the Mitsui Garden. The hotel was spotless and felt brand new. The rooms were on the small side but well appointed. We really enjoyed the lounge seats and view from the top floor onsen. It was a convenient location with Omicho Market, the Castle grounds, and Korinbo area a short walk away. Really most of the sites around town are walkable from the hotel but using the excellent bus system allows you to save time. The JR station is not far but definitely a taxi ride if you have luggage.

"1. Staff - Same as anywhere in Japan, staff are very nice and helpful. But what sets this hotel's staff apart from other hotels is that when you ask for directions, they won't just give you a map. They will also check via google map from their own phone and show you the route to your desired destination. 2. Room - Very spacious, clean, neat and tidy. In addition to that, there is free big bottled water every day. The room comes with a big washer/dryer, and even the laundry detergent also comes for free! 3. Shower - Shower area comes with both bath tub and standing area (for people like us who don't want to bathe in the bath tub). The water temperwture also is very stable, unlike other hotels in Japan wherein the water in the shower suddenly becomes hotter/colder even after you fixed the temperature. 4. Trash bins - This hotel has the most trash bins compared to all the hotels we've been to in all our travels. There are 3 bins (segregated waste) in the kitchen, 1 in the bedroom, 1 in the toilet and 1 in the tooth-brushing area, for a total of 6 trash bins! this is very useful as people in Japan need to bring home their own trash. 5. Surroundings - the hotel is just beside the Takayama Nohi Bus terminal and Train Station which makes it very convenient for travellers. it is also near to a number of tourist destinations (morning markets, Old Town, Hida Folk Village, etc) and eateries. We will definitely be staying in this hotel again in our next trip to Takayama."

"Friendly service "

"Favorite hotel of our trip to Japan, wished we stayed longer! Loved the space, the kitchenette, the tatami room, and the spa bath! Kids loved having their separate space in the tatami room and slept well on the futons. Bus stop right outside and property is also an easy walk to a lot of key places. "

"Lots of foreigners and local travellers. Can be crowded. Some foreigners may not understand public bathing etiquette - for example, rinsing the shower stall clean and clear of soap suds for the next person and standing in the shower stall - there is a reason why each comes with a stool for you to sit. Of course you can kneel if you wish which a lot of old sentou will not have a stool readily there. A lot of English speaking foreigners speaking very loudly inside the elevator. I understand the excitement of finding out a washer-dryer inside your hotel room but it’s nothing to be overly excited and if you are, express that when it’s not inside the elevator. The hotel should put signage up or print these rules for foreigners. I love this country and wishes well for all visitors but I would like to at the same time preserve the “specialness” of this place for all to enjoy in the future…… Otherwise it was a good stay. "

"Staff take great care of you. Definitely do the onsite dinner and breakfast, not just because they are excellent, but also because there are almost no other restaurants for dinner in the area. "

"One of my best stays! From the onsen to the breakfast, everything was excellent. Highly recommended."
