Sumiyoshi Ryokan experience

The owners and staff were very warm and welcoming. However, the structure was old and a little tired looking. Our sleeping room only had one electrical outlet with a lamp plugged into it. This made charging our iPhones and tablets difficult. Also, the one larger onsen was never available during our 4 day stay. Perhaps a sign up sheet with a 45 minute time slot could help make the onsen available to more visitors. On the positive side, the ryokan was well located a short distance from the train station and some interesting sights in Takayama.

Absolutely incredible, a highlight of our trip! The staff were really friendly and the food was really good. They also had an onsen which was really relaxing. Our only regret was that we didn’t book it sooner so that we could’ve stayed more than one night.

Best hotel/accommodation we stayed at in Japan! The staff is so friendly and welcoming, the breakfast is delicious and the location is very convenient. The private onsen was perfect after long days of walking. Would recommend to anyone visiting Takayama!

Tattoo friendly and a amazing place to stay

It was the best place we had stayed at to this day! My husband and i never been to a ryokan before and the family running it were absolutely amazing! We arrived a hour late from curfew for check in which i was very worried that we would be turned away for it but we were greeted warmly and got to our room with no problems. Another worry we had was the shared bath since we have tattoos and werent sure if it was ok with the place but when we arrived we found out that it was required to lock the door for the bath so it was a relief. 10/10 I would stay here again and probably stay only at ryokans when I visit japan again as we found ourselves really missing staying at sumiyoshi.

Best of traditional hospitality/modern convenience

A fabulous ryokan! Attentive, personal, service, comfortable conveniences, all in an authentic, traditional setting. Surrounded by antiques (including in the rooms), you’ll find your hosts have a sense of humor, even as they provide excellent kaiseki! I wish we could’ve stayed longer!

This was one of the best experiences I had in Japan! It was so much fun staying in a ryokan and it was made even more special by the lovely owners! It felt like we were guests in their house as they were so helpful and kind and such wonderful service! The onsen was also amazing as you could use it privately! We had a room that looked directly onto the river which was also a bonus! I would definitely recommend!!

Caring and attentive staff

Highlights of this Ryokan experience: - the location and hearing the river -customer service - food - we had the Japanese breakfast each morning which was delightful - the bath - clean and relaxing We chose this Ryokan to have a traditional experience which was explempary. As others have written, the facilities are not new and so for those seeking modern furnishings/ decor, it would not suit.

Disappointed

The staff is nice and the place is clean, but even though I saw pictures and wasn't expecting much, my boyfriend and I were disappointed. That Ryokan is run-down. We would have preferred an hotel or auberge for the same price.

Will definitely come back!

This was by far the best stay in Japan for me so far. The interior is wonderful and intricate. The food was also extremely delicious. The owners of the ryokan are so accommodating, helped me carry my really heavy luggage. When we left, they helped us call a taxi and walked us to the main road. I will definitely be staying here again!

Very friendly, comfortable and great location on the river. The baths are hot and wonderful. The meals were very elaborate. Nice town to explore, with good restaurants nearby. As our first ryokan experience, we were very impressed.
