We headed to Takayama and stayed at Amanek Hotel, a relatively new hotel that just opened in October 2025 and it definitely shows in the overall condition and design.
Rooms
The rooms were spacious (for Japan standards), very clean, modern, and tastefully furnished.
Everything felt new and well put together, with a modern aesthetic that made the stay comfortable and relaxing.
Facilities
One of the highlights is the onsen located on Level 9.
- Includes a sauna and common bath area
- There is also a mixed-gender section where bathing suits are required
- A nice spot to unwind after a long day
The hotel also has a small lounge area with added perks:
- Dango served from 7–9pm
- Drinks available from 3–7pm
These little extras made the stay feel more thoughtful and enjoyable.
Parking
Parking is available at two locations, but it is first come, first served, so you may need to plan ahead if you’re driving. The second parking space is a walking distance from hotel.
Facilities (Laundry)
One downside was the limited laundry facilities:
- Only 3 washing machines and 3 dryers
This can be insufficient, especially during peak travel periods when more guests are using them.
Amanek Takayama is a comfortable and stylish stay, especially if you’re driving and want something new with good facilities.
It may not be the most convenient for walking around major attractions, but the clean rooms, onsen, and thoughtful touches like free snacks make it a solid option overall.
