We had booked our room at the Rickshaw Inn well in advance but were a little disappointed at its size and layout. The typical Japanese room doesn't lend itself well to two clunking great western beds. So we had a look at one of the larger rooms which was vacant. Sakura can sleep 6 but is ideal for space-loving westerners.... More

Very comfortable hotel with a lovely relaxing room where you can read one of the books available in the shelves or just watch TV. The rooms are in Japanese style good size and very clean. If you intend to go during the Summer/Autumn Festival be prepared to pay double price, but it really worthwhile

Writing this from the room... using the free wifi. They know what travelers need: spacious clean room, free wifi, laundry area, kitchenette, bikes for rental etc... To top it off, Mr. Akio Eguro was most friendly and helpful with recommendations and directions. Too bad temperature dipped when we arrived and was a tat too cold to use the bikes. Definitely...

We visited Takayama second, after staying at Ryokan Sawanoya in Tokyo - that might have colored our review, since Sawanoya is such a classy establishment for this price range. Rickshaw Inn was not quite as appealing, but it was very decent and the staff was very friendly. They upgraded us to a room with a private bath because they had... More

Me and my partner stayed 3 nights in the Rickshaw Inn and found the staff incredibly friendly and helpful with their recommendations on restaurants and bars nearby. It was really useful to have a laundry room in the accommodation after a week travelling round Japan. Rickshaw is well located to the main streets of Takayama and less then 10 minutes... More

We were lucky and we got an upgrade for free when we got there. Lucky us!! The room we were given ("Bamboo", family room) was huge!! The bathroom, the bedroom and a small kitchen with a table were separated by sliding doors japanese-style. It's not like the japanese standards, the room was really big, clean and quiet. It's a ryokan... More

Although it's a small inn, less than 15 rooms, it's very comfortable while staying there. Attendances are very warm. They even carried your luggage to your room which is very rare in small inns in Japan. Japanese style room, very cosy. Very clean. The common kitchen and sitting room are free to use. Provide free wifi.
