Takayama stay Kakitsubata
広々として，清潔感もあり使いやすかった。 夜に入館したため，チェックイン時の鍵の部分が暗くわかりにくかった。 外国人対応も意識しての掲示もわかりました。 館内は段差があるので、サイト上2階への階段の案内の他に字とことプラスされていればkさらに良いかもしれません。 また，チェックイン前に宿泊者の写真登録が必要な意味も、実際にチェックインしてセキュリティ上理解しました。滞在は快適でした。

Wat Hotel& Spa Hida Takayama
Generous, gave us water in 2l bottles in exchange for two small unopened ones. Breakfast was delightful, with a good variety to choose from. Rooms were bigger than expected, almost like they’ve upgraded them. Overall, a very pleasant stay.
