The bed was the most comfortable I slept in so far. Room was large enough for a single person. They had free amenities in the lobby and the breakfast had a good Japanese spread. The only con is the elevator is super slow lol but at least they have one! Family mart underneath is super helpful. Would stay again and it's super close to the takachiho gorge!

The most wonderful place in Japan!

We travelled to Takachiho all the way from London. This hotel was so clean and had a wonderful view to Takachiho hills. Hotel staff were so helpful. I love to visit Takachiho again and love to stay at Hotel grateful Takachiho.

Sunday night saw a lack of dining establishments. However there is a Lawsons convenience store below the hotel. An older style hotel but clean and quiet and close to the gorge entrance with beautiful gardens surrounding. Staff were very nice and breakfast was great.

Pros: Good value. Spacious rooms. Relatively large beds. Quiet area. Easy, ample parking. Hotel connected to a convenience store. Good free breakfast. Walking distance to Amaterasu train attraction. Cons: A bit further away from Takachiho Gorge, about 5min drive. No view from hotel. Laundry was a bit expensive, had to buy detergent from the front desk separately from the laundry machine fee.

Not a great hotel

It was an old hotel, a bit off from the main attractions and the bus station in town. Breakfast was not great either and the hotel is not compatible to its price.

Just OK. Would stay closer to the City Center

The hotel is an 11-minute walk from the main bus station/tourist center. Due to bus schedules, I needed to leave a day early. The hotel did not budge in terms of giving me a refund for the extra day. For that reason, I will not stay there again. I also learned there are other hotels much closer to the city center, which would have been more convenient. The staff were friendly in terms of making calls and helping with the bus. There is a very well-stocked Family Mart on the bottom level of the building, which was convenient. Otherwise, you will need to walk a distance to get food!
