A great, family run, traditional Japanese inn. The people that run it are great. Very helpful, very good atmosphere and a caring staff. My family and I really enjoyed it. Clean, comfortable and right near a nice walking trail too.

Charming, very well run traditional Inn with great amenities and features. Great location with valley views and easy access to old town and a short walk to the Hida Village. Laundry facilities are great. Caretaker/owner is wonderful. Definitely eat the traditional meals offered (western and Japanese options), they will be a highlight of your trip!

Absolutely awesome traditional Japanese hotel experience, the rooms are simple as expected but great views. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. The traditional dinner is a must, good value for the amount of food. Not a lot of restaurants around the hotel but only approx 20-30 minute walk to city centre (or short taxi ride away).

My family stayed at this ryokan for two nights in November. We would recommend staying here for the experience of a Japanese inn and the fact that it is very authentic. We found the staff to be professional and polite. The drawback is the inn is located in an area quite a distance from the center of town and from all of the temples and shrines. If we were not a family of walkers it would have been a problem. We also reserved and had the dinners each evening which was a very enjoyable and worthwhile experience. Do not be afraid of "sleeping on the floor." It is very comfortable and we slept well! The experience is a MUST during a trip to Japan.

Helpful lift to and from train station as this hotel is quite up the hill. Lift has to be prior arranged get a number to call and need to arrive before 5pm. Shuttle into town is 10am. It’s a traditional hotel so futons and shoes off throughout. The futons were very uncomfortable and I could sleep. We also had staff walk into our room after we’d checked in and were getting changed which didn’t help with feeling relaxed. The squat toilet smelt like a urinal you had to use a toilet in the corridor to get a western style toilet. There were hairs on the bedding so it wasn’t really clean. We did use the couples onsen and this was appreciated. But we were glad we were only staying one night.

I do wish that there is coffee.

Murayama Ryokan is superb. Dinner and breakfast servings are not just filling it’s also healthy. The food is just delightful. Be sure to try on the Yukata for the dinner. The tatami room floor and the hallway carpet floor are super clean. It’s an old Ryokan, but I highly recommend staying here. I think the receptionist might be the Owner, just by the way he treated us. We had a great experience.

Like many ryokans, the property seems a bit older (thin walls, creaky elevator, etc.), but there was not a dingy or rundown feel like many ryokans in this price range seem to have. Everything was clean & tidy. The service was great. Normally, the baths are separated by gender, but on one of our nights there were only two families on the property, and the owner arranged for each family to have their own bath. (It might be a bit uncomfortable for Westerners, but family bathing is a common practice in Japan.)

The place was clean and the staffs are all nice and they have two sets of onsen. The two on the second floor are for male and female separately and the one of the first floor are for couples or families who wants to enjoy taking a bath or onsen privately.

1. Different feel than usual hotel stay. Take off shoes at main entrance, luggage-only elevator, futons, onsen etc. Room is very spacious n quiet. 2. Free shuttle only upon arrival n departure n specific timings, earliest only 10 am. Rest of shuttle bus timings need pay 210 yen. 3. Staffs are helpful but very limited English. Do not expect concierge help in hotels to provide recommendations etc. 4. Walk from ryokan to Takayama station is about 25 mins. Night time if single lady can be intimidating as not much street lights. 5. Fory 3 nights stay in mid Dec, i had the whole onsen to myself whenever i visit evening times. It's an indoor onsen with no outdoor view, more like a public bath. 6. Took their traditional Jap breakfast abt 3000 yen per pax, food is nice. 7. Checkout time is early 10am. You can leave your luggages with them but at a charge of 200 yen per pc. 8. Unexpected 150 yen spa tax per pax, even if pax doesnt use the onsen facility but was told it's a regulation imposed by government.

We had a great stay. The folks who ran the Ryokan were kind and helpful. The Japanese breakfast was delish and overall we had a great experience. It’s about 20 minutes walk to downtown, but the offer a free morning shuttle and shuttle to and from the train station. We would absolutely stay again!

A lovely traditional Japanese Inn. There is some minor wear and tear, but to be honest this adds to the atmosphere. The service was excellent, as was the food. It is within easy reach of the key sites around Takayama. It's a little out of the town centre, but in a lovely quiet area (only a 5 minute walk from Hida no Sato village). We had a very relaxing time here. Our family room was very spacious and sleeping on tatami mats and futons was very comfortable. We also enjoyed a hot spring bath together - which is an excellent way to unwind. I strongly recommend this as a place to stay.

My wife and I had a wonderful stay here. The staff are extremely nice, the dinner was absolutely delicious and reasonably priced, and the room itself was like nothing we had ever stayed in before. The location is a bit quiet but still not a far walk from town if you miss the last bus, and the train station is easily reached by their shuttle. We felt the distance from the main part of town added to the experience!

Lovely people. Fun experience. As stated by others, in need of some long term maintenance or refurbishing. Dinner, about US30, outstanding experience and cuisine thst is definitely worthwhile for one night. Good value. Not many other good restaurants in vicinity. Overall stay, pleasing.

Wonderful, wonderful stay. 10/10. Shoutout to Murayama-san - driver, receptionist, chef, and owner of Ryokan Murayama! He personally picked us up and dropped us off at the train station every day, and cooked us lovely breakfasts and dinners during our stay there. Stellar customer service. The ryokan itself was charming, clean, spacious, and comfortable. Access to the train station was easy with the in-house shuttle bus, and getting around by Takayama's own public bus was also a breeze with the bus stop located just down the road. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay there, and would happily stay again!

Nice, if not old, Ryokan. It's a little out of the way and you have to walk quite a bit to get to any restraunts or convenience stores. Hida folk village is just up the hill so that was nice. They do provide pick up and drop off from and at Takayama station. Although I don't think they like picking up just one or two people.....
