Situated 1.5 km from Takayama Station, the property features an open-air bath and free private parking. The property is non-smoking and is set 3.5 km from Hida Minzoku Mura Folk Village.

The apartment was very clean, comfortable, and well-equipped. We stayed for one night during the Takayama festival as a couple but it can accommodate more guests. The open-air bath was fun and easy to use with privacy.

Takayama Ninja House available for Covi d measures is located in a conservation area in one of the few historic towns remaining in Japan, where is Takayama city.

It takes only a 8 minute walk to Takayama’s most famous street Sanmachi-dori. Takayama Ninja House features air-conditioned rooms with free WiFi throughout the property. Guests can enjoy the on-site bar. Private parking (1,000 yen per night) is available on site.

With a hostel like feel, the Ninja house is perfect for young travelers, or a group of young travelers. It is well situated within Takayama, being fairly central to everything. The walk from the station is simple enough, but can be a distance if you aren't used to it. The host was great, spoke very reasonable english, and was able to guide me through things to see, do, and eat. The room I got was great, slightly larger than what I expected. You are in a traditional house, so make sure you are up for sleeping on a futon. The ninja house is situated on a quiet side street, so noise isn't an issue. Clean, orderly, and tidy as with most places in Japan.

The property is close to Hirata Folk Art Museum, Fujii Museum of Folk Handicraft and Yoshijima Heritage House. All rooms have a terrace.

The house may be situated on a steep hill, but it is in a central location to all Takayama has to offer. I loved the CD collection and there was a hot shower.

    The host family is very welcoming, the home has so much history and makes you feel a part of something special. It was an amazing experience especially with the host sharing all her knowledge on the local area and the food that was made for us, foraged from the mountain. An amazing experience that will not be forgotten .

    The location, the place and the host. Location wise, it is not very close to the highly touristy spot but just within a few minutes walk away. It allows to enjoy a quiet and peaceful morning without missing out on the experience of the old town Takayama. The homestay is very clean and aesthetically pleasing too. I personally really liked the mini garden outside, a nice spot to enjoy your morning coffee. The host is also very responsive and accommodating. We even helped us get back the stuff we left behind. Highly recommended!

    Clean and cosy homestay, the host is very friendly in ensuring that I am taken care of. He has a simple map which indicates the nearby to-go location, for example, 7-11, Onsen where locals go to.
