Our rooms are designed with traditional Japanese aesthetics, featuring tatami mat flooring throughout. For those who prefer a futon on tatami or a bed, we also offer Japanese-Western style rooms. The warm ambiance is further enhanced by local artists' paintings adorning the walls. We went as a group and we loved the ryokan. It was very spacious, everything was very clean, and it was conveniently located near the bus station, the train station, and the city center where most of the shopping takes place. The rooms were the most spacious we stayed in throughout Japan, and the staff were all very kind. I would definitely stay here again.

They have a nice private bath which is a good experience to try. The location is near the morning market and Miyagawa river. Everything is fantastic!

Just 40 metres from restored Edo-era post town Magome-Juku, Chaya Hotel has simple traditional rooms with futon bedding and a tatami-mat floor. It has a hot public bath, and Japanese meals are available for a fee. We had a wonderful stay at Magome Chaya! We booked a private double room and messaged them in advance, asking to include meals in our plan (breakfast and dinner). Both were delicious and served on their restaurant across the street. Communication was great from start to end, and they did inform us several times in advance that it's cash payment only - plan accordingly. The rooms are on the second floor, together with shared bathrooms. On the first floor, you have more bathrooms and also the washroom (female and male), a lounge area, a small guest kitchen, and a laundry room. We slept well, and it was quiet during the night - rooms have heaters, so it wasn't cold. The pillow is indeed, as other reviews mention, a bit hard. I slept without it - perhaps if they changed them for a more 'generic' one, it'd please more people ☺️ The minshuku is located at a beautiful spot in Magome, so I'd most definitely recommend this place! Book and plan in advance, as accommodations get full quickly here. Magome is beautiful, and the Nakasendo Trail is an easy one. I highly recommend it for everyone! Thanks for having us 🙏🏻

It boasts a rooftop open-air natural hot-spring bath, cosy family baths and a hearty homemade breakfast buffet. Free WiFi is available throughout the property. JR Takayama Station is located a 3-minute walk away. The hotel is only a 4 min walk from the station and very close to other landmarks nearby even hida folk village! The staff was amazing and the whole hotel is strictly no shoes policy. They provide comfortable socks to walk around the hotel areas which gives a very pleasant and traditional feel as all the rooms and hotel floors are tatami! The hotel also has public onsen for men and women while also providing for 3 different private onsen which during our stay did not have trouble finding vacant! All onsen are really good! The hotel also provides lots of amenities, and price included drinks, coffees, night ramen and ice creams which were delicious after having a relaxing onsen. Highly recommended for the traditional element of the rooms and the onsen! Breakfast has plenty of choices both western and traditional! I highly recommend to try the local breakfast options.
