"We’re so glad we booked this hotel. The trip to Takayama is long, and knowing it was right by the station was a huge relief. The location is truly 5-star. You’re also just a 5-minute walk from the bus station, which you’ll need to get to Shirakawa-go. The room was clean and spacious, and the staff was incredibly helpful, especially when making restaurant reservations. After a long day of walking, the foot bath on the top floor was a great way to relax. "

"We had a wonderful 4-day, 3-night stay at Ryokan Sansui and truly enjoyed every moment. The ryokan has a very traditional Japanese atmosphere—an old wooden building full of character, beautifully maintained, clean, and well cared for. It feels authentic and calming, exactly what you hope for in a classic ryokan. After skiing during the day, the indoor and outdoor onsen were incredibly relaxing. Soaking in the hot spring in the cold winter air was one of the highlights of our trip and the perfect way to unwind each evening. The ryokan is also very kid-friendly, which we really appreciated while traveling with our toddler. All the staff were exceptionally kind, patient, and welcoming, and they went out of their way to make our child feel comfortable. That warmth made a big difference for us as a family. We stayed on a half-board plan, and both breakfast and dinner were excellent, with a wide variety of beautifully prepared dishes. Over the course of our stay, we enjoyed Hida beef in different styles, including shabu-shabu, sukiyaki, and nikuyaki—each one delicious and thoughtfully presented. Overall, Ryokan Sansui offers a perfect blend of traditional charm, comfort, great food, and heartfelt hospitality. It’s an ideal place to relax, especially after outdoor activities, and we would happily return again."

"Nice hotel, great hospitality.Very reasonable price with breakie. Room is spacious for family. On top of that, breakfast is satisfying with various choices. Open air onsen allow you to relax after whole day activities. A plus is small private onsen room(only fit a couple). Personally, Hotel location is best with transportation (I suggest hotel considering hourly shutter service). I(with teens) find it tiring may need a lot walking to visiting spots. My family enjoy very much for the stays in WAT Hotel. "

"Excellent location right near the train station. Room is clean and staff are very friendly. I stayed with my wife and toddler, and was very happy with accommodations!"

"Great location "

"Excellent stay. Everything stands out. Clean, safe, wonderful, amazing snowy night and day. Staying there for 2 nights was so dreamy. The onsen experience was unreal. Breakfast was filling with a great set offered. Staffs were helpful and patient. Language barrier was not a big issue. They sincerely try their very best to accomodate. If you want perfect english, best to visit an english-speaking country."

"Location was amazing and staff was super helpful. "

"We stayed here as a family of 5 (2 adults and 3 kids - 10, 6 and 4) in the traditional Japanese room. We didn't get in till 6ish and left early so we could get to Kamikochi but I wish we had of added another night or at least got there at check in time to make the most of the facilities. Unfortunately we didn't have time to use the onsen. The traditional room is set up for tea when you arrive and then the staff comes back later to make the beds for you. The kids loved the experience. We were also able to wear the yukata to dinner. You can call down for kids ones to be brought up. Staff were lovely. We hadn't booked a food package as I have picky eaters but we went to the dining area on level 1 and were able to order a Japanese set meal for my husband and I and the kids had chicken nuggets, spaghetti and ice-cream. Highly recommend"
