Nothing was bad. It was all so lovely.

It was amazing. Certainly the best experience I’ve ever had with a guest house.

The best place I’ve stayed in Japan! Kota and his lovely family were so nice and helpful during our stay. The house is gorgeous and the homemade food and sake are amazing! Thank you so much for receiving us and for being so kind! All the joy to the lovely family and for the business as well! Would recommend this Guest House very much!

N/A, there was nothing I didn't like!

Location is peaceful and quiet, definitely recommend renting a car to get there. In between mountains the famous gassho Kukuri villages, onsen, few restaurants. Hosts were super helpful and kind with great recommendations. Wonderful view from the room and weather was perfect plus blankets are nice and thick! Definitely recommend whether traveling by yourself or with someone else.

The house is really nice and the inside is big with everything you need. It also has a nice view. Very kind owners who are willing to help you if needed.

We had a great time at Takazuri Guest House, we felt very welcome from the very beginning. The hosts Kota and Kanako are very lovely and take good care of their guests and their son Taichiro is so cute. We had great conversations with the hosts and other guests. Breakfast and dinner are offered, vegetarian/vegan options are also available. Shirakawa-go, Suganuma and Ainokura are easily accessible by World Heritage Bus and there is the opportunity to experience onsen nearby. We would definitely book the accommodation again and are happy to recommend it to others.🤩🤩🤩

We could hear everything happening all around the house from our room, so it was an issue when we tried to fall asleep. In addition, the light was on in the adjacent room, and it brightened ours as well, which also bothered us when sleeping. It's important to bring food as we couldn't find any open restaurants or convenience stores.

The hosts were incredibly kind and heartwarming, as well as helpful when needed. We felt very welcomed. The house is beautiful and cozy. The shared kitchen was well equipped. The village is lovely, remote but quiet and peaceful. Highly recommended.

Beautiful house, beautiful location. A bit difficult to arrive without a car, which makes it more interesting to me. The hosts are lovely and helpful.

One of the best places I stayed at in Japan, if not the best! I had a great getting to know the staff and the other guests. Everything was perfect and still had a homely atmosphere. Dinner and breakfast were also really nice.

We, four people, stayed in a shared room with eight people, including one Japanese or Korean individual. In the room, one person made a lot of noise both before going to bed and in the morning. They loudly gathered their belongings and chatted loudly until we woke up. We felt that we didn't get enough sleep. Dealing with roommates' issues can be difficult, and I understand that. Next time, I will consider renting a room for my family only, accommodating all eight of us.

The accommodation location is excellent. The room has a very beautiful view. The hosts are very friendly and take good care of us. The room is clean, the bathroom is clean. I'm sorry we only stayed for one night. I still want to stay here a little longer. If we have the opportunity, we will definitely come back again. Initially, I was worried because it was our first time driving in the snow in Japan. But the route was very convenient and not difficult to drive at all. If you're considering staying here, don't hesitate. The view is stunning, and you have to see it with your own eyes.

They have many bathrooms, a lounge room and a small kitchen. I was staying alone that night so they upgraded me to a private room for no cost. They also offered to drive me to the bus stop, I found it very kind and thoughtful. The family is very kind, the place is very clean and the environment is very cozy, I am very glad I visited them.

We loved staying here, the owners are a lovely family. They make great food and are very friendly. The location is great for exploring the area, the rooms are comfy and the house is beautiful. :)

Nothing to dislike.

Kota and Kanako were excellent hosts and super friendly. They have a toddler full of life who will make your day bright. The facilities are impeccable. The location is excellent for exploring the area by foot or by car. Central to two of the main UNESCO Heritage Sites, Suganuma and Ainokura villages! The food was healthy and delicious and they used a lot of their own produce. The lounge is also a great place to relax after a day of exploring. Highly recommend.

Owners were very friendly and recommended some fantastic local onsen. Pickup and drop-off from nearby bus stop made the trip accessible even without a car. Japanese style breakfast (available for small additional fee at check-in) was delicious. We wish we would have stayed a two or three nights instead of just one.

A little cold in open areas.

Traditional ryokan lovingly restored by Kota san. The big living room was really warm and inviting.

Beautiful place. Lovely family. Everything was perfect. I was sad to leave. It’s a very charming place.

The only difficult point is that the area is remote so the nearest bus station is a bit far and uphill if you are on foot. Our rental car was cancelled, so Kota has kindly proposed to pick us up from/drived us back to the nearest bus station and even from our dinner. We appreciated it massively!!

Kota and his wife were exceptional with us, overly kind, helpful and cheerful. The house was super clean, in the nature, they have a big common room where you can relax and order breakfast, snacks, drinks and they even have some dinner options. We have booked the tradiotional tatami beds.

There were stinky bugs, but this is common in the autumn... Catching them becomes a game :)

The owners were very kind, the location was amazing and the house very big and beautiful. The food was also very good.

It is our second time there! :) The hosts are super nice and they took care of all of us. We felt very well looked after! The guesthouse is located some minutes driving to Ainokura old village and it is so beautiful. You can trully feel the spirit of traditional Japan there :) I remembered they offered snacks, but I didn't know it was possible to have dinner too. I would like to try it next time! :) The three snacks we ordered (popcorn, grape and nut cake and bear ham) were delicious :)

My stay at Takazuri-KITA was wonderful. The guest house feels like a shelter in the mountain. Kota and his wife are really helpful and friendly and very good cooker! Even the view was stunning. I just want to say thank you!
