Find the Best Gokase Hotels

I stayed in a Japanese style room. It's a really nostalgic national lodging house with a tatami desk, TV, and tea chest. You'll have to lay out your own futon, which is probably a good thing because unlike inns, you can't enter your room without permission. It had just stopped raining and I could see a rainbow from the terrace. Takachiho is a short walk from Takachiho Shrine, where you can enjoy Kagura at night, and you can also rent cushions. Women will be happy to have individually packaged facial cleansers and cosmetics. We also enjoyed local cuisine such as comparing the tastes of Takachiho beef. This hotel is convenient for sightseeing in Takachiho Gorge.

As Takachiho Gorge is comparatively hard to get to we felt much better staying in Takachiho for a night. And it's great to find a modern hotel in Takachiho, the front desk was nice and helpful, note that it is such a small town and dining options are not a lot so I would recommend have dinner and breakfast at the hotel. Hotel has a large parking lot and breakfast is great (a bit wait in the morning during peak time)

When we close our eyes and imagine the quintessential Japanese luxury ryokan, Takachiho Ryokan Shinsen is among the first properties that springs to our mind. It represents everything awesome about the best ryokans with almost zero drawbacks, and we departed from Shinsen awestruck at how perfect every aspect of our stay was. From the incredible Omotenashi service, gorgeous gardens, architectural elegance, spacious and beautiful villa room, mind-blowing kaiseki cuisine to the terrific private open-air Onsen bath, everything about Shinsen emphatically screams ”destination ryokan.” Shinsen is a family-owned property with a total of just 15 rooms among 3 separate areas: the Honkan (main), Bekkan and Hanare. They are within 1-minute walking distance form one another, and each area has its own unique character - the landscaping is fascinating, as well as the various private dining rooms that are in each building. For instance, in front of the Honkan main entrance is a dry rock garden that is reminiscent of the famed Ryoan-ji in Kyoto, while in the Bekkan it has that plus a variety of perfectly manicured vegetation as well as a small, red-painted traditional-style bridge. The private dining rooms each have its own character as well as views out of the window; we especially loved the view from one of the Bekkan ”Ko****su” rooms during our dinner on the second evening - the window faces the garden, which is lit up from the ground, resulting in a mesmerizing view of the rock garden patterns, mysterious trees and the pretty red bridge. For every meal (whether it's for breakfast or dinner), they escorted us from our room to a different private dining room located in various locations throughout the property. We spent all 3 nights in a room called ”Manyo,” a detached villa that was located in the Hanare section of Shinsen. Ms. Kumi Sato, the charming and elegant ”Okami-san” (Proprietress) mentioned that Manyo is the best room at the property. It's a generous 100m² in size, and thoroughly modern with all of the creature comforts that one would expect at a top-flight luxury hotel. Manyo's room consisted of a bedroom with two double Western-style beds, a living room with a sofa, coffee table and a large, flat-screen television, and a Japanese-style tatami room as well. It's an open floor plan, although each section of the room can be closed off by sliding the walls shut for privacy (or peace and quiet.) Very versatile! The Villa had a large patio with a beautiful zen-style rock garden beyond it. Off to the side is an outdoor, free-flowing Onsen (hot springs) bath made of Hinoki wood. Next to the Onsen (and inside the Villa) is the vanity, toilet and indoor (regular) bath and shower. The layout of the Villa, as well as the furnishings and decor was all top-notch - the perfect setting to have a lengthy, relaxing stay in the Villa should you opt not to explore the Takachiho area. If there is one minor nitpick, it has to do with the lack of dual sinks,

I stayed here to visit Takachiho gorge, which I wanted to go to for the first time on my first trip with him in the spring of 2016. Reasonable and good location, I was going to make a reservation alone, but it was a very memorable trip with the pleasant response of the staff from the time of reservation to the check-out. I remember the night Kagura and the way to night Kagura, and I used a taxi for the rest of the time, but I am satisfied that everything is smooth in the easy to access location. The breakfast was at the end of the breakfast, but the staff was told to be slow without a disgusting face, and both of them remained in memory. I was going to leave the review immediately after my stay, but it was a little earlier experience, but I thought it would be a reference and posted it. After that, he married him and Miyazaki is still a place for two people to remember, including this one.

Location It may be a little difficult to understand because it is adjacent to the private house, but there is a signboard, and if you go to the car navigation street, you can get there safely. Check in When you stop the car, the staff will help you carry your luggage immediately. When booking online, when you enter the address, etc., you can check all the printed accommodation registration papers and sign them, so the procedure is fast! I received a bag of gobochi. Room large! A relaxed entrance, a seat with a cushion and a table with a wide 々, a well-cleaned toilet, washroom, bathroom. The bed spring was good, and the futon was also able to sleep well in fukafuka. Dinner I enjoyed all the dishes and dishes using seasonal ingredients. Color alcohol 々 was offered a drink aracult buffet for guests who wanted to enjoy. I ordered it to be good if I had more than 3 cups. I might have drunk a little more if I didn't go to Kagura. Breakfast at the same table where I had dinner last night. * * for rice is dark and fresh! I want to have it again. I also saw guests who were offered Western food. Is it a customer for a consecutive night? Others It is a walking distance to Kagura place, but you can pick up and drop off. You can rent a bench coat for cold prevention. This is located in the lobby, so you can borrow it when you go to Kunimigaoka early in the morning to see the cloud sea. (I couldn't see the cloud sea). Staff / service Friendly but professional service. It is an inn that I want to stay again.

A long-established inn in the downtown area of Takachiho Town. Bus terminals and Takachiho Shrine from Nobeoka are slopes, but a few minutes walk away. Yamazaki convenience store is also nearby. Although it is a long-established store, you can feel the traces of various renovations. The toilet in the room was small but with a washlet. The difficulty is that there is no elevator. I still want an elevator to go back and forth between the １ floor and ３ floors. On the other hand, although it was dinner, the dishes centered on local dishes were lined up, and the sukiyaki of Miyazaki beef was delicious.
