Hotels Near Hiko-chan House in Gero

Typical Japanese style hot spring hotel. The only one-night tatami experience in a Japanese tour with a group of eight and a half people, and the only hotel to book dinner. It is very suitable for the first time to experience Japanese hot spring culture, and the price is good. The hotel is very old and the hot springs are great (slip). Hotel location is good, just a few minutes walk to the main street, you can see many small hot springs and foot baths along the river along the way, geothermal resources are really leveraged. It is recommended to order dinner, the variety includes a variety of typical Japanese food, it is worth a try.

Hong Kong manager BEN service is very good. Hotel location, hot springs, food, are first class. I had a very good experience with my family. The most important thing is to get the price fair. Have the opportunity to go again!

I stayed overnight for the first time with my cousin and wife. The best time to see it was over, but the autumn leaves on the road to the entrance were wonderful. The building retains the remnants of its founding. It was a historic appearance where successive emperors' families stayed. I stayed in a comfortable Japanese-style room with 10 and 5 tatami mats. The large communal bath is an alkaline simple hot spring. In particular, the open-air bath with natural rocks is the best. The skin became smooth and smooth, and it felt very good. It is better to change the men's and women's baths the next morning. Supper is in the room. There are many types of menu in kaiseki cuisine, and we enjoyed the seafood and mountain food luxuriously. Breakfast is a Japanese set menu in the hall. Breakfast with dinner was also satisfactory and very delicious. It was a memory of a pleasant trip.

The stay in Mutsumikan was very good. The Hotel (Ryokan) is very close to the train station. To the center of Gero it takes roundabout 5 minutes by foot. The experience seemed very authentic. Most of the staff understand basic english, so communication was never an issue. Our room was very clean and tidy. Everything you need for a 2 night trip was there. The outdoorbath was pretty small, but that was never an issue with the amount of people staying there. Breakfast and dinner were in a japanese style and very tasty, but maybe not to everyone's palate. Overall the stay was pretty good and I would stay there again.

It was a stay using the prefectural people. Because I had declared on the phone in advance, the check-in procedure and the application of the prefectural people were very smooth. The guide in the building was a foreign national staff, and there was a wall of words, but it was easy to understand all the necessary matters. In addition, the information you received at check-in was also described in the information you were able to go to each large bath and were able to use all three large baths without hesitation. I was very worried about which dinner to make, but Ogawaya was the first time to use it, so I made it a standard meeting seat, but it was correct. You can eat at the private room banquet hall, and the amount and taste are satisfactory. The dinner attendant was also a foreign national, but it was very polite and very good as the guide. The breakfast buffet was also used after 7:00, so it was not particularly crowded, and the seat was also very relaxing. It was a type with an open-air bath on the balcony, so the stay in the room is also very relaxing and recommended. It was a stay without any inconvenience at all. I like the accompanying people very much and I would like to visit again when I go to Gero.

I'm struggle to put my review in words cause I am amazed by the services offered by the hotel and the staffs. First of all, upon reaching Gero station from Nagoya station using Hida Line, we are thrilled by the surrounding atmosphere and we took our time snapping photos around not knowing that the hotel offers a free shuttle bus for all their customers. The driver waited patiently at the exit gate, holding the hotel sign board waiting for all customers to leave the Gero station. This is a real PLUS in our stays. After we checked in, the staff lead us to our rooms and explained to us on the facilities of the hotel and the staff helped to exchange the size of Yukata after studying our heights. Very observant and thoughtful. There are 3 different hot springs in the hotel and if you have time, you can visit all of them. You can always put on your Yukata and walk inside the hotel region, including the stunning Japanese garden. Just that, most of the services/shops in the hotel are closed on 9pm JST. Remember to plan properly. The room is very spacious with 2 comfortable beds, a small tatami region for you to enjoy your private Japanese tea time. We love the breakfast provided by the hotel as it offered variety of both Japanese and Western breakfast. There is a shuttle bus service (usually once per hour for instance 10am, 11am and 12 noon) to fetch the customers back to Gero station. The staff waved us good bye is another amazing experience provided by Japanese. It is just amazing feeling. Tips: 1. You can purchase the 5Days JR pass and enjoy unlimited ride on some JR trains if you plan to visit Nagoya region and a day trip to Tateyama Alpine Kurobe route. 2. There are not many tourists during our visiting time (24 April 2023) and we love the peaceful feeling of it. Just that, it also comes with not many restaurants are available during the day.

A very homely feel, clean inn. Limited parking lots next to the inn. A bigger car park slightly away from the inn is available. Private onsen can be booked for ¥3,300 a couple, for 45 mins per session A 2-storey inn, no lift. If you have heavy luggage, they will help you carry to your room. Requested for extra pillow and the rattan bedroom was comfy. They have many yukata to choose from, paired with ko-ko shoes & matching rattan bag for your leisurely stroll. From autumn onwards, they have thicker over-coat as well. Staff are from PRC, Malaysia. Speaking Mandarin & English is a breeze.

This is a traditional ryokan. The reception was friendly and professional including tea served in your room upon arrival and an orientation as to the various utilities and yukatas. The room was similar to other ryokans we have visited: large with a low table and two chairs in the centre of the room which are replaced by two comfortable futons put into place while we were at dinner. The difference in this ryokan was a small dressing room with a vanity hidden by a natural beam in the corner of the room as well as four upright chairs in front of a long natural beam table in front of the large picture window. I can understand while some reviewers would see the room as being slightly dated with its dark trim but this is offset by bright halls with their floral carpeting and beautiful stained glass windows. As well, the traditional food was superb - artistically prepared and extremely tasty - with multiple dishes served by our gracious hostess. Given the recent investiture of the new Emperor we had a special menu prepared for Year #1 of Reiwa (the name of the Emperor's era). The onsen was equally excellent, with various pools. A great place to start and end the day. All in all an excellent experience.

Great Japanese-style room, unforgettable garden view Breakfast red is very special The big bathhouse experience was fun My favorite hotel on this trip Looking forward to visiting again for salmon rice next time

Wanosato is located next to a picturesque rock strewn river surrounded by old pine trees. The setting is quiet and relaxing with just the sound of flowing water. If you’re planning to explore Takayama you will need transportation for the short drive there. The well established ryokan has several baths available and they are all enjoyable. Our room was spacious and clean with good AC and a small refrigerator. There is a charge for non alcoholic drinks from the refrigerator which is different from other ryokans on our trip. Meals were excellent without fail and the service level is very good. Staff are friendly and accommodating. Shuttle service to and from the train station. Very pleasant stay.
