"An amazing experience and stay! We spent two nights in the ryokan and it was a highlight of our trip. The food is exquisite and we were served an array of traditional, creative and beautiful dishes which we very much enjoyed.

"Excellent boutique hotel. It was beautiful inside and very intimate. The little cafe was cozy and had snacks all day long plus coffee and tea. There is a private onsen and little garden. I sadly missed the breakfast that they offered to us as i was so tired and comfy in the bed i had trouble getting up. The room was beautiful with great amenities and drinks for you. It was spotlessly cleaned. The manager was very friendly and quick to respond to messages. It is the type of place I personally...

"What a lovely stay in this hotel during our family retreat to Enakyo. This is our first time visiting the beautiful town and our experience has been a very positive one. The hotel is clean, staffs are friendly and the onsen is enjoyable. The room we stayed is properly sized for the three of us, there is no shower within our room, but the public bathhouse was enjoyable. Will definitely visit again."

"Large outdoor area of onsen pools with 4 lie-flat onsen beds. This hotel is well located with large parking lot. The room is spacious with suite and view of river and Gero. We found the staff extremely helpful and friendly. Both dinner and breakfast were delicious and healthy. The hot spring is known for restorative and you can feel the difference why Gero is ranked number 2 of the 100 best hot springs in Japan. The hotel's location and quality of onsen is hard to beat. Thank You for the Great Service!!!!"

HOTEL MYU STYLE INUYAMA experience

8/10 Good

"The property was pretty new. Location was fantastic, right below the train station and goes directly to the airport on this line. There's alsona supermarket and various food options plus a drug store, a short walk away. However, there weren't daily towel and yukata refresh like most other Japanese hotels. Nor was there trash removal options like placing it outside the room. We get that the room is not cleaned daily but the trash and fresh towels were our basic expectations. "

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Shirakawa?

The best area to stay in Shirakawa, Gifu Prefecture, is the historic village itself, particularly near the iconic Gassho-zukuri farmhouses.

This central area allows you to be right in the heart of the UNESCO World Heritage site. You'll find yourself surrounded by the distinctive thatched-roof houses, many of which are preserved as museums or guesthouses. The Shirakawa-go Open-Air Museum is a prominent feature, showcasing various traditional buildings. The village is compact and easily explored on foot, with footpaths connecting the main attractions.

For couples seeking a romantic and memorable experience, staying in one of the traditional gassho-zukuri guesthouses within the village is an exceptional choice.
