We were travelling as a family of 3 and loved this spacious, comfortable, quiet character apartment in the heart of Takayama. Very clean and stylish. The host was top notch and responsive, we loved the fresh bread and station pickup. There is a tiny kitchen area with fridge, coffee maker, microwave and toaster (no hot plate). Do be aware the stairs to the sleeping level are very steep and not suitable for small children or anyone with mobility issues. Also toilet only on ground floor so hard to navigate at night! We had a great stay and highly recommend.

The hospitality shown was fantastic. We were treated so kindly by the host who also gave us tips for things to do in the local area. The location was ideal for exploring Takayama. We also liked the beautiful decor which was modern industrial in style.

The owner, Mr. Taga, was really prompt in his responses and made us feel really welcomed. He picked us up and dropped us off at Takayama train station. He also explained very carefully about everything in his apartment, how the appliances and heaters work, which restaurants to go, etc. There was a fresh bread loaf on the kitchen counter too - a very nice gesture. The location of Anchor Site is really convenient to walk to many restaurants, clothes shops, grocery stores, cafes. The only point to watch out for is the steep stairways to the futon beds on the second floor. While the bathroom is upstairs, the toilet is located downstairs. I just want to mention this last bit - when the coffee machine didn’t work, Taga came within minutes to fix the problem. We truly appreciate such service and we definitely recommend you to stay at his artistically decorated apartment.

Very good location, very spacious, very clean and provide a lots of complementary items like drinks, coffee, sanitary pads, candy and others. The only con is steep staircase.

Host picked us up from Takayama Station upon arrival The property has 2 levels with bedroom on upper floor. The only downside is we are unable to carry up our luggages as the steps can be steep. Overall we enjoyed our stay. The property is cozy and comfortable.

The place is super clean and comfortable. The host is very helpful just like how everyone had described. The service is excellent. The location is convenient. This is our favorite stay throughout our entire trip in Japan. We would love to come back.

This place was amazing and perfect for our family of 4. Funky, modern, super clean, convenient and a fantastic owner who went above and beyond to ensure our comfort. There were a range of free drinks for our use during our stay and fresh bread on arrival. The owner picked us up and dropped us off from the train station. This made it so easy, especially when it rained on departure. Bike rental was only half a block away. This was great as we got to see so much of takayama. The Main Street is 5 min walk. Also look for places to eat in behind streets, as we found some fantastic lanes to eat. We loved our stay and I highly recommend this place to anyone going to Takayama.

This was a wonderful place to stay. The owner Taga picked us up at the train station and walked us through this amazing appartment. The location was perfect for walking to the sites and restaurants and quite at night. The living space was spacious, well decorated with beautiful modern furnishings and the cleanest place I have ever stayed in. There was freshly baked bread that was left for us. There was a coffee maker with fresh beans which was a real treat in the morning. I highly recommend this property. It has been the best stay we have had in all of Japan.

Anchor site is a really lovely apartment in the center of Takayama. The host was really nice and he picked us up at the train station and as well drove us back after the stay. Location is literally in the center of city and in walking distance to shops and sights. Worked very well for a family of five.

My wife and I stayed at Anchor Site for three nights and had a great time. The property is located centrally but out of the busy tourist area so nice and quiet. In addition the property was incredibly spacious and suited our needs perfectly, the large entry was ideal for storing our bicycles. Our host was such a generous and helpful person, I'd certainly stay there again if in Takayama.

A fantastic stay. Right next to old town. Spacious, clean and modern. Great ammenities.

Takayama is a quiet place, Anchor site located near to morning market and walkable distance to many good restaurants ( Mr. Taga reccomended), convenient stores and tourist sites. Room was clean and tidy, mostly have what you needed. Overall was good, strongly recommended !

Very good and nice place in great location and the owner is very nice guy!
