Homestays in Shirakawa

Amazing stay, check it out! Very relaxed!

It was an awesome trip. The owner is very friendly and very helpfull. He gave me a map, showed places to go, helped me arriving at places to go. In the two evenings I've been here we've spent time talking. I'd give this place 11/10.

The owner is super nice and gave us good advices for the stay !!! Thank you very much to him ! The house is also super comfy and well equipped, I recommend 100%

The absolute loveliest stay I’ve had in Japan. What a delight the hosts are - Glenda is an absolute gem and the loveliest. She used to tour around Japan as a singer! If you’re lucky enough, you can get her to sing a bit for you. Her husband is an incredibly talented chef and cooked us a huge and wonderful dinner - probably the best food I’ve had in Japan. Strong recommend!

Simply the words can't express the magical place of Takazuri-Kita guest house. The location is unbelievably scenic & tranquil. The walk up to the guest house from the closest bus stop is a not to miss walk. We spotted over 30 bird species closer to the property. We have walked up to Gokayama village & an amazing hot spring from the property. Need to mention a restaurant near by the owners. We did lots of amazing walks observing the typical Japanese village life closer to the property. Although all attractions are within walking distance, just being at the property itself is a highlight. The house is a paradise. The setup is amazing. Everything is there that you need. Its more than a guest house and living with a family. The other guests who visits there too become a part of the Takazuri family and the atmosphere it creates is magical. The view from our room window is breathtaking. All meals they provide were simple but delicious , the presentation was amazing. Cant say enough good things about their service. Always you get more than you expect. As a sumary this is one of the best places we stayed during our trip to Japan and this property itself make the tour very special. We would have spent more days here and we belive this is a must visit place in Japan. Once again we thank very much for the Takazuri family who were communicating with us througout from the day we booked to the end too make us an unforgetable stay. They were super kind, helpful. One cannot expect anything more than this.

The host was kind, considerate and warm! She made our stay extremely comfortable, and the futons were the most comfortable we had ever slept on!!! Also we were going to a local onsen and she provided us with coupons! We were very pleased! I highly recommend this accommodation for its location, price and hospitality!

It’s a amazing place. The host is so wonderful and kind. The place is quiet and pretty , I think you can stay here to enjoy the trip.
