"We enjoyed our stay. The highlight was the rock-lined outdoor onsen fed by a hot spring. As we soaked in the mineral bath, we looked out at the snow-covered pines and blue skys above. It was the best onsen experience of our entire three-week holiday. We were there using a cold snap; the common spaces were chilly but our room was comfortable."

"Easily the best place I stayed in whilst in Japan. It’s a ryokan and yet it has full 5 star hotel features. I chose a room with a private outdoor Onsen bath and kaiseki dinner option. Room was huge (75sq/m) with a separate bedroom, living room and sitting area with a wood burner. I started the fire and sat there for hours in between my private lovely hot onsen. There was also a vast public sitting room with massage chairs overlooking the shrine. Gorgeous. Mealtimes I looked forward to as it was...

"Bosenkan mean Riverview Inn, and it really offers a fine view of the Hida River. This is a traditional Japanese style place, with tatami mat rooms, nice yukata robes for guests, and a very nice indoor outdoor communal bath. I highly recommend it if you are staying in Gero Onsen, one of Japan's big three famous spas."

"A cozy homey ryokan just 3-minute walk from the Gero train station, the location is excellent. The meals were delicious and the service was impeccable. The room, however, was a little dated. The insulation wasn’t good so it could be a little chilly at night when it was snowing outside. The outdoor onsen was enjoyable. I will definitely come back next time I visit Gero. "

"The whole stay was flawless and staff are really very consciously looking after your needs.
The in room bath pool overlooking a small garden was cool. The dining experience was most excellent.
Lastly we left a jacket in the wardrobe and realized that at the train station with minutes to board!; as my daughter was on the phone to hotel; the driver had retrieved the jacket and showed up at the station to return the jacket.
This will never happen anywhere else - really appreciated the service...

"Large room. Enjoyed the separate sitting area. Staff was very good, kind and helpful. The food was wonderful, well presented and explained. The hot bath is made of attractive wood that feels good. I like being able to control the temperature."

, got a massage, used onsen- bath. All clean and lovely. Location was perfect, walking distance to the red bridge, old town, temples, etc. we even walked to the Hida Folk Village. There were many good restaurants, just a bit of a hassle always needing reservations. Overall it was great, and a beautiful town "

"Really enjoyed our stay at this hotel. The Onsen is great (preferred the gender-separated onsen, as there is more space and more options than the family tub). The breakfast is a bit hectic as you need to queue, but I enjoyed the food selection. The location is pretty good for everything in town. Overall, we had a great stay here in Takayama."

"Excellent stay. It was our first time using an Onsen and we had a good time using the baths after a long day. The room is clean and comfortable. The staff was very friendly and kind and gave us a ride to the station after we checked out. The location is close to the main sites. Would highly recommended this hotel. "
