Hostels in Gifu Prefecture, Japan

So cozy and i was lucky to have the best roomies ever ☀️ 🪲PROS - has a shuttle bus and multiple times a day or a bus station close by - inner part of the city is reachable within 20-25 mins of walking and the folk village is very close - kind owner and cozy interior with a very homey feel - kitchen and bathrooms were easily accessible and clean, shampoo and shower gel were included - coin laundry and coin dryer were easy to use and cheap as well ❤️🩹CONS - not really a con, but remember to bring a towel and toothbrush/toothpaste, if you forget it you can also get a towel at the Inn - 25min on foot is not that far away from the inner city and it’s great that the folk village is so close (if you want to visit) - but i had my focus on different things during my visit, so next time i would book something closer to the inner part of the city and the travel bus station 🌱 all in all, i really enjoyed my stay

The hotel is close to the river, a little distance from the Gerv Hot Spring Street, the gate is closed at 6 pm, it is not convenient to enter the door, the dinner is actually Western food, not very delicious, the double room is a 150 bed, friends travel is not convenient, 2000+ room rate is not recommended to live here, hot springs are OK, It is the most cost-effective hotel on this trip to Japan.

The hotel is in an excellent location with great amenities nearby. It's just a bridge away from Miyagawa Morning Market and very close to the old town of Takayama. During my two-day stay, all the other guests I encountered were European, and I was the only Asian person in the entire backpacker room, which was a very unique experience.

2nd time using this place, and as usual, been a really pleasant and enjoyable one For the price that you pay for, the location is near the train station, bus terminal and walkable distance to the old town as well. Extremely convenient and efficient place. As usual, staff who was working there were really helpful! And there was this pretty japanese lady, who by the end of our stay went out of her way to assist in sending my snowboard all the way over to hokkaido to my next hotel. Best services ever 🫰 Location was amongst all the best food the city could provide too!

The experience was quite unique; it was my first time checking in online via video call, and I communicated entirely in English. The room was nice, but the downsides were that it didn't have a door, and the lockers were small and you had to bring your own lock, so you had to keep valuables with you at all times. The location was great, not far from the JR bus station and close to restaurants! The price was also very reasonable, making it a good choice for accommodation in Takayama.

Staying at Hostel Miyagawa by Murasaki Ryokan was truly one of the highlights of my trip — an unforgettable experience that beautifully blended comfort, tradition, and hospitality. From the moment I arrived, I was welcomed into a warm, peaceful atmosphere that reflected the essence of a traditional Japanese ryokan. The design of the space is charming and authentic, with thoughtful touches that bring out the beauty of Japanese culture. Everything from the tatami rooms to the meticulously clean facilities made the stay incredibly comfortable. What truly made it special, though, was the feeling of calm and connection to local traditions that this place offers. It’s more than just a place to sleep — it’s a cultural experience in itself. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking to immerse themselves in an authentic and beautiful ryokan stay.

good location,suitable for low budget people,like the onsen

Nice room, a short walk away, close to the main train station. Walk a little further to the walking street area, clean room to shake the ground. Self check-out TV has a lot to see The bathroom has a sink to soak in on a tired day of walking.

Cleanliness is ok. It was a perfect stay if you just sleep. It is within walking distance to the international conference hall and is good for business use.

Genuine Japanese style accommodation in an Onsen. Facilities are limited but one encounters Japan like no other. Admitting that sleeping on a mattress next to each other is not for everyone and so might be the public shower in the Onsen. Shuttle bus to the city is needed as its quite far from the city centre. Luggage storage is very limited. Curfew at 11pm without exception.
