Our stay at Live Takayama was one of the most beautiful and heartfelt experiences we’ve ever had. Even weeks before our arrival, Hiromi was in close contact with us, patiently helping us arrange a rental car for our trip – with a level of care and kindness that is truly rare. She personally picked us up from the train station and brought us back at the end of our stay. When she found out we were on our honeymoon, she invited us to an exceptional local dinner – a true highlight we will never forget. But it didn’t stop there: she also surprised us with a cake and touching photos of our son together with her dog, Koko – a deeply moving gesture that brought us to tears. Hiromi is not only the kindest host we’ve ever met – she is simply one of the warmest and most caring people we’ve ever encountered. Her dedication and love are evident in every detail – the accommodation itself is thoughtfully designed and meticulously maintained, far exceeding all expectations. We will never forget Hiromi, her husband, and of course, Koko. They have forever earned a place in our hearts. Thank you for everything. 🌸

It’s a single apartment not far from Morning markets. Fab location. Super comfy bed! It’s two levels so if you can’t do stairs, it’s not a good option as bathroom is downstairs. Loved the poem and artwork on walls. Very beautiful And thoughtful ❤️

This was a great place to stay in Takayama. The location was perfect for getting to the old part of the town a quick 10 mins walk away. The hosts were both amazing so friendly and accommodating, nothing was a problem. we had the place to ourselves the first night so it was quiet. Would highly recommend this as a great place to stay in Takayama.

Very friendly and helpful staff with good communication. The hotel is very close to the station and you can book a tour with the hotel to Shirakawa Go or other spots near Takayama. The room was nice, tidy and at a really good price for the service. Would recommend!

    Lovely host. Was very welcoming and the rooms were very clean and felt traditional. They let us leave our bags there after we had checked out so we could explore Takayama more which was nice. Well located within a short walk from stores, the bus station and the nice areas with all the little shops.
