K's House Takayama Oasis [2nd K's Hostel]

I stayed with the family at K's House Takayama Oasis for my last vacation trip to Japan and I would rate this Hostel amongst the best hostels I've been around. Location is superb, rooms are cozy (small but cozy), facilities (kitchen, common areas and laundry) are great and employees are excellent. I would definitively consider this location for a trip in Japan. It was so good that I would even consider changing some of my other hotels and hostels around Japan to facilities part of the K's network.

The hotel staff and location were exceptional. The staff was attentive and friendly, always available to answer our questions. We were also able to leave our suitcases at the hotel. The location is very central, just a short distance from the station, yet situated on a quiet street. Our room was quite spacious, the largest we experienced in Japan. The common areas, including the kitchen and living room, were consistently clean and accessible. It was a nice surprise to be offered laundry service since we stayed for more than three nights. We celebrated New Year's Eve there, and they even provided sake for us to toast with. It was truly lovely! Thank you very much!

Fantastic place to stay for the price. 2 minutes walk from the train station and bus terminal for day trips (the whole of Takayama is easily walkable). Amenities far surpassed expectations – pantry (free coffee and tea), washroom, beds. free bicycle and umbrella rental. They even have a shoe dryer machine near the roof. Their dryer was one of the rare ones that dried my clothes properly without shrinking them (big ask from most hostels xd) Staff were accommodating and friendly, giving good recommendations and the most up to date info. Would definitely like to stay here again when I'm back in Takayama.

The location is great and really close to the main station, a few minutes' walk which makes everything really easy. The common area is very nice, and you can easily meet new friends. The staff was amazing, Nick was so helpful. I told him that they told me at the info of Nohi Bus Station that there is no direct bus to Kamikuchi. He was sure there is, so he actually went to the info to check this! And not only that, the day after, I had no place to sleep. Everything was booked, and he was so kind and gave me recommendations of other places I can check, maybe with an available room. Chi was really sweet too. They even agreed to keep my stuff until the evening on the day I checked out. The room was clean, the bed was comfortable."

A beautiful Japanese style hotel, we got the Japanese room! It's definitely one of the best experience we had in Japan! Staff was amazing, super friendly, spoke english very well. The common area was great to hangout at, and the kitchen is spacious and well-equipped. There's washer and dryer if you need to wash your clothes. The rooftop was great, we went up there twice a day. The room is nice and clean, everything works perfectly.
