Reviews for Japan Family-run, Friendly and Cheap Inn

Ueno-ya has hosted many tourists from all over the world! 10 min walk from JR Takayama Station. Close to the famous Takayama Jinya and morning market stree. A small but cozy Minshuku-style Japanese inn in a quiet residential area of Takayama town. ‘Minshuku’ is a family-run type of Japanese guesthouse and we offer friendly and comfortable atmosphere. It is about 10 min. walk from JR Takayama Station. and very convenient for sightseeing in and outside the town of Takayama.

I had such a wonderful stay at the Ryokan Shimaya. My room was excellent and the service that Mr & Mrs Yumoto provided was perfect. They are such a lovely couple. The Japanese breakfast that was available for an extra cost was one of the best meals I have had so far in Japan. I loved the monkeypark and the Roten-buro Tomi-no-yu and the lovely owners were always ready to drive you everywhere. Thanks for a beautiful memory!

Good,friendly staff. English not very well spoken. Onsen very nice and relaxing. Room was well equipped, but street noise all day. Air conditioning was very nice in this warm city. Price was okay! Would come here again!
