Das Personal war außerordentlich freundlich. Wir haben das Ryokan Tanabe für eine Übernachtung genutzt, um zur Mitte einer von Aktivitäten und Sightseeing geprägten Japan-Rundreise zwischendurch mal einen Tag/Abend so richtig abzuschalten - dafür ist es ideal. Die Tatami-Räume versprühen dafür einen wirklich ganz besonderen Flair. Die Onsenbäder haben wir aufgrund der Witterung wiederum nicht genutzt.
Ein absolutes Highlight des Aufenthalts war natürlich das auf dem Zimmer servierte Dinner. Hier wurde uns eine Vielzahl köstlicher und äußerst liebevoll präsentierter Speisen serviert - auch für in der japanischen Küche mäßig bewanderte Besucher sollte es nicht schwer sein, diese Köstlichkeiten wertzuschätzen und ihnen etwas abzugewinnen. Besonders das Abendessen war sehr reichhaltig und gehaltvoll, das Frühstück war dann (vernünftigerweise) etwas leichter, aber ebenfalls sehr lecker und voller interessanter Entdeckungen.
Kein Problem, eigentlich nur eine Beobachtung: während uns beim Abendessen alle Komponenten genau erklärt und dazu auf einem (japanisch-sprachigen) Menü beschrieben wurden, fand eine derartige Erklärung beim Frühstück nicht statt - da mussten wir teilweise ein wenig raten, was wir da leckeres zu uns nehmen.

Der Aufenthalt im Ganzen war ein Erlebnis an sich, vom Willkomenstee, dem wunderschönen Onsen sowie dem Abendessen und Frühstück. Das Essen war definitiv eines der Highlights. Die Zimmer sind sehr schön, das Bad groß und super sauber. Wenn man den Aufwand betrachtet, stehen Preis und Leistung absolut im Verhältnis. In allen Bereichen wird auf eine hohe Qualität geachtet.
Leider waren wir nur zwei Nächte da.

La struttura originale molto bella e anche gli spazi comuni , vicino alla parte vecchia della città e facilmente raggiungibile dalla stazione
Il costo della camera superior in stile giapponese un po’ troppo alto per essere così datata e la cena è colazione con un servizio troppo veloce
4.4
Stanza ampia con saletta separata dove servono colazione e cena.
Possibilità di usufruire di vari "onsen"..

Excelente ryokan, de preciosa decoración y con todas las comodidades usuales de este tipo de hoteles. La habitación era cómoda y preciosa. El desayuno y la cena, de estilo tradicional, abundantes, muy rico y servido en vajilla tradicional. El onsen estupendo (con también dos bañeras exteriores). Personal encantador
Hacía algo de frío fuera de la habitación (en el pasillo y baño)

Dinner and breakfast were phenomenal! Staff were so friendly. Foreign traveler friendly as staff can speak English. Location is perfect. Don’t miss out on this place. A Takayama Gem!

It’s a beautiful property in the heart of Takayama.
The rather regimented and structured meal time allocation.

Truly japanese experience. Accommodation is surprising and stunning. Public bath so nice, traditional. Staff was so kind and gentle, always ready to help and support us.
Kaiseki dinner was as amazing as typical japanese breakfast.
Good position!

If you're looking for a real Japanese experience from the food to every detail in the room then that's the right place for you.
Staff are mainly elder Japanese ladies who are really nice and friendly. Makes the experience much more authentic.
Well sleeping on a Japanese tatami mat isn't comfortable but it's part of the Japanese experience can't complain :)

Very nice and traditional Ryokan near the main attraction of Takayama.The staff was always attentive and welcoming with us. The traditional Japan dinner and breakfast are served in your room at specific times and with a fix menù so l suggest this experience only to who is open to try new and very different tastes compared to our usual continental dinners.Overall an excellent stay!
All was ok!

The staff was just lovely.
There is an opportunity for the food to improve.

Beautiful place giving the feeling of a traditional Japanese home within the walls of the room. Food served in the room was an event worth the money with a great selection and high standard.
The onsen was a relatively low temperature bath (28 C) with fresh water (450 ppm) and honestly a bit disappointing compared to other onsen in Japan.

vey clean but a little dated. it would be good to freshen the airs inside all hallways leading to rooms. but staffs are very helpful and friendly.

The hospitality was wonderful, the onsen was peaceful, and the meals were amazing! Such a great location, too! We walked everywhere from our ryokan. Loved every minute at Ryokan Tanabe!

The food and the location
The wifi connection was very slow and the ones was quite little
4.4
very friendly staff, everything worked very well - dinner set up, making up the room for sleeping, etc. the food was excellent, beds were super comfortable, onsen was lovely and quiet - we were alone. great location. would recommend and stay again!
the hotel is bigger than we expected and on the main road - but once you’re in your room you can’t hear anything. the view from the room is the back of another building, so better keep the curtains closed. really nothing to complain about though!

Breakfast simple but good enough.
Onsen quite small but ok.

great location and atmosphere
very few English speaking staff

I think it’s an acquired taste. it is very rustic. the staff is extremely nice but sleeping on a 2” futon on the floor with a straw pillow do make up to it. sorry
see above

Very nice centrally located ryokan with extremely friendly and courteous staff. The rooms are bright and friendly. Onsen are separated by women and men and also very nice. There are great care products there.
Our room was very large with tatami and comfortable beds.
The highlight was the food. You have to experience it. All in all wonderful.
4.4
Fabulous and friendly staff, very nice new tatami room, and excellent food. The location was perfect, too.
The onsen bath was just so-so (small and a bit dark). But the regular bath in the room was nice and bright, in contrast.
4.4
Loved everything about this ryokan! Hospitable staff that spoke english well, great public onsen with open air tub, room was clean and cozy and just a minute walk from takayama old town.
4.4
All staff are very very nice, feel like at home.
Dinner and break fast served in room, which is not often for this category of price.
Food were good with local specialities.
And really good location, in center of Takayama. Can go everywhere by walk. A lot of restaurant around.
Maybe my room was next to the kitchen, so I could hear people talking from beginning of my dinner until before I went to bed. Otherwise all were good.
