Ryokan Seiryu

Location is 10 mins walk from station. In the night we just check in, there was a firework show near the river bay, it was very well organised. I will come again.

We travelled with family and friends in a group of 13 pax. We chose Ryokan Seiryu because of its location. It is just less than a hour bus ride to the famous Shirakawa-go unesco heritage site. The ryokan is also just 5-10 min walk from the Takayama station, and also mins from the Takayama old town. There are plenty of restaurants nearby as well. Takayama is known for its Hida beef so you’ll find it at most restaurants. If you choose the all inclusive meal plan at Ryokan Seiryu, you’ll get to indulge in Hida beef in all meals. Something which we truly enjoyed in our stay there. The family room we booked were spacious and can easily accommodate 4 pax. The hotel may be a bit dated but it has the look and feel of a typical Japanese ryokan, which is something we were looking forward to. Rooms has all the amenities you need and service was exceptional. Right from the front desk to the server serving our meals. Special thanks to Maki. She was truly helpful and friendly. All in all, my friends and family really enjoyed our stay at this hotel and wished we could have stayed longer. Highly recommended to anyone looking for a ryokan experience in a traditional and serene town.
