Takayama Hotels with Swimming Pool

"Large hotel outside the city good for group travelers. Onsen on premises was excellent. Breakfast was also good. With my arrival I asked the reception to eat in a Japanese restaurant and was told only available the western restaurant with Pizza, burger etc…. I went to check the restaurants and checked the Japanese one if available and to my surprise they told me no problem I can get reservation which I did. I returned to the reception and asked why I was told otherwise. An apology was in place but I guess that’s the policy to separate the foreigners from locals so the atmosphere to be kept undisturbed by foreigners who some may have bad manners. Unfortunately it’s being repeated in many places I visited after the current flood of tourists. "

"Nice sized room, loved the private onsen and close to the station. Also close to downtown with a small walk. Staff is strict on check in times so be aware, early check in is not possible"
