Recommended. Extra recommended with a car to allow extra exploration.We enjoyed our stay so much! Your recommendation were on point. I got a little sick (unrelated to the accommodation) and I imagine some in the future will as well. We had a wonderful time. Takayama is truly beautiful. Thank you!

Bref, allez-y absolument ! [EN] Super nice house and very comfortable, run by a team that is full of good advice and attention, and very responsive. And the city really deserves two or three days.

Saigawa House is a fantastic rental - very practical and well equipped, and an easy space for a family. The check in process was fantastic, and the house is in a great location - right next to the samurai district, and an easy walk to the castle/Kenrokuen/Omicho market.

Very clean & well equipped house.

This was our favourite place during all our stay in Japan, it is beautifully traditional but installed with hi-tech comforts like a remote to switch the light off (definitely a luxury when you are tucked into bed). Gwenn was a fantastic host and very responsive. Would recommend this place and would come back to stay if visiting Takayama again.

Great location and the hosts are very attentive. Highly recommend

Different from hotels and ryokans, I think people can have a great time here.  We enjoyed our time at this rental house.

Great place great value and great host! Highly recommend this place as it is just walking distance from tourist attraction and one thing for sure Gwenn is such a great host! Thank you for being such a great host Gwenn! We had a great time in Takayama and we’re in love with Takayama! Thanx for all the great tips!

Great place, very keen close to everything.

[FR] Premier séjour à Kyoto enchanteur. Cette petite maison est adorable et admirablement bien située. Merci pour l'accueil tout en finesse de Philippe et ses bons conseils. Dernier jour à Nara sous un soleil merveilleux. Nous sommes enchantés et espèrons bien vite revenir au Japon pour encore plus le découvrir. [EN] First stay in Kyoto was enchanting. This little house is adorable and beautifully located. Thank you for the very fine welcome from Philippe and his good advice. Last day in Nara under a wonderful sun. We are delighted and hope to return to Japan soon to find out more.

Japan Experience and our travel angel, Aurore, are great. Aurore is truly an angel. Helpful, friendly, and very easy to communicate with. Highly recommended!

Friendly host, comfy beds, clean house with great heaters. Nice location. 

We really enjoyed our stay at Hida House. The host, Gwenn, was very responsive, friendly, and knowledgeable. He gave us great recommendations about places to go and places to eat. The house is very spacious and clean. The house is located in the great neighborhood, close to Old Town. We recommend this house. Thank you, Gwenn, for your hospitality. We really enjoyed our stay in Takayama. Your recommendations are awesome, and without them, our stay wouldn’t be as good as it was. Thank you so much.

The homestay is in a good location, very close to the busiest commercial street. Going out across the road is an ancient street full of charm, as well as various small shops. After walking down the river, the scenery is beautiful. The "manager" sent by the landlord turned out to be French. Communication in simple English and Japanese was also very easy. Sleeping upstairs in the house and sleeping downstairs, it feels pretty good, but it still feels cold in winter.
