It's amazing that there's a Kyowak Resort near Takayama Station!!

Experience of the stay
About a 3-minute walk from Takayama Station. A hotel with a casual atmosphere, but with a calming "Japanese" feel from the tatami areas at the front desk. There was also a welcome drink.
As it's a Kyowak Resort, it offers the same night soba, ice candies, and morning dairy beverage as Dormy Inn.
Breakfast can be added for an additional 2,100 yen (at that time). It was quite crowded, so I passed this time, but it seems popular for local dishes from the Hida region.
The private baths (three sizes available) have a system where you can wait for a chance to enter, and remarkably, it's free.
It's a bit of a distance from the old town and morning market, but it's not too far to walk.
Experiences during the trip
Strolling around the preserved areas of the old town of Takayama. My top recommendation for souvenirs is the Iwaki's Hayawara (warabi mochi).
I bought a Nobi Bus ticket from Takayama Station and headed to Hirayu Onsen. After enjoying a day trip hot spring and lunch at "Hirayunomori", I took the bus again to Kamikochi. It was refreshing with cool air!
You can enter Kamikochi either from the Gifu (Takayama) side or the Nagano (Matsumoto) side, but I think it's good to spend a night around Takayama Station when entering from the Takayama side.
