5 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 April 2012

Just next to the JR station. Clean room, 3 star amenities, but no WIFI. You can find free WIFI at the taxi stand nearby. Old town and sights are to a 2-10 minutes walk. Good choose if location counts and don't want to spend the day in the hotel room. High floor rooms has a nice view. Staff speaks english. More

We stayed here for one night before we go to Hirayu/Kamikochi area. Since we were there only for a short time, between bus connections, all I wanted was simple, but clean room. The room is small, but average size for Japanese business hotel. I had nothing to complain until I saw a cockroach walking on the carpet.... They said they... More

The W Hotel Plaza was across from the station which is a plus, but Takayama is small, and beautiful. So you go visit. But the W Hotel P is not really ideal. The rooms are so small that you can't full open your suitcases unless you put them on the beds (we pushed the beds together for more space, and... More

The hotel is just a stones throw from the bus and train station. Its clean and safe. The rooms are SMALL, but very functional. There;s a small but deep tub; they leave bath salts which is a nice touch. There is so much to do in Takayama that you won't mind the small rooms. Breakfast was tasty too. More

The only thing to recommend this hotel is that it is right across the street from the train station, so when we arrived in Takayama it was really easy to find. The room was so small there was no room to put 2 suitcases - we had to climnb across the beds to get to the bathroom. Worst of all,... More

Stay 28-30 March ( 3 nights) Paid AUD $136 a night with internet. Thought the rate was expensive, but it was peak season in Japan AND a weekend. Location is right opposite the station. The Best Western is the block behind, 50m away. Stayed on 3rd floor ( from memory 326??) the room was situated on the side with obstructed... More

This hotel is located directly across from Takayama station, however, only the japanese name is in big letters marking out the building. You will need to get right up to the door to see the english name. The lobby is located up the escalators and isn't really visible upon entry to the hotel. Given that the signage to the hotel...
