NAKASHIMAKAN  

In Takayama's mountain foothills, a family-friendly onsen ryokan just steps from Shin Hotaka Onsen. Shin Hotaka Onsen is about 0.1 km away, Shinhotaka Ropeway roughly 4.4 km (2.7 mi), and Nishihotakaguchi Station Observation Deck is a short drive. Kita Alps Ohashi Bridge and West Hotaka Station Exit are also nearby.

An unpretentious ryokan with seven guestrooms. Rooms include flat-screen TVs, air conditioning, seating areas and in-room safes, with daily housekeeping. Expect a relaxed onsen vibe and a terrace for taking in crisp mountain mornings.

Soak in hot spring baths, lounge on the terrace, or enjoy the picnic area and vending machine. Complimentary wireless internet is available throughout the property, and free self parking is onsite.

Luggage storage and complimentary wireless internet keep stays easy and connected. Free self parking is available for guests traveling by car.

No on-site restaurant is listed, but Uchino Sake Bar Nonkimura is within walking distance for local sake and regional small plates — a good spot after the onsen.
