Kashi Besso Takachiho, hotel in Takachiho

Featuring quiet street views, Kashi Besso Takachiho in Takachiho provides accommodations, a garden, barbecue facilities, and a shared lounge.

Wow! I'm always looking for unique, one-of-a-kind stays and this one made for a stunning experience. Kind owner, gorgeous views, fresh mountain air mixed with the scent of tatami, super spacious interior that made me feel right at home. If you're looking for a sterile, bland apartment rental, perhaps this isn't for you, but if you want something different, something authentic, you'll love it. My favourite stay on my Kyushu trip!

    Takachiho is about 1 hrs. 20 minutes drive from Kumamoto...

    Takachiho is about 1 hrs. 20 minutes drive from Kumamoto Airport and is easy to reach in a rental car. The scenery en route is amazing! The Gorge is stunning but not very long. The rowing boat trip is relatively expensive, ¥5100 for 30 minutes for a max of 3 people, but it is great fun with wonderful photo opportunities! You can walk some of the way along the river but part of the path is still damaged. There are several nice shrines in the area, one of which does nightly Kagura dance performances (1 hour for ¥1000). We stayed 2 nights in a lovely Ryokan at the end of our holiday and it was a great way to finiour trip to Japan.

    A hiker's dream. Lots of trails, stairs, nature, waterfalls.

    A hiker's dream. Lots of trails, stairs, nature, waterfalls. The rice terraces' views are amazing. Farm animals. My kids and I loved it all. The boating on the Gorge was a great fun experience!

    Takachiho is an absolutely beautiful place!

    Takachiho is an absolutely beautiful place! The gorge was one of the most incredible places I have ever been in my life and I will definitely be returning one day with my family. I cannot recommend this place enough. The locals were so friendly! Literally everyone I spoke to was so kind and helpful, when I panicked and got myself lost they were so wonderful. Even kids walking home from school said hi as they passed me! The only catch is that if you’re flying into Kumamoto Airport, there is only one bus that will take you to Takachiho and it’s over two hours to travel and only comes twice a day. You have to be very organised because if you miss that bus, it’s not easy to get there if you aren’t renting a car. While you’re in the area, you should also check out Iwato Shrine and the Amaterasu Railway. The railway is a great way to get a better view of the valley from above -so long as you have a head for heights! Overall, I would say seeing Takachiho is a must if you’re visiting Japan!

    Ryokan Shinsen was absolutely AMAZING!

    Ryokan Shinsen was absolutely AMAZING! Everything from communication before through our stay was exceptional. The food was the best we have had in Japan (we have lived here 2 and a half years). The service was top notch and the private onsen was wonderful. Highly recommend.

    Highly recommending the nature trail walk from Manai falls...

    Highly recommending the nature trail walk from Manai falls to Takachiho Shrine. It offers better view than boating ard the waterfall. If time allows, do go to Amanoiwato Shrine - the view at Amano Yasukawara is awesome. If you eat beef, lunch at Nagomi is one of the best option!

    A small town, but filled with culture and beautiful nature.

    A small town, but filled with culture and beautiful nature. I really enjoyed the shrine and getting some omamori as gifts. The gorge was beautiful, but unfortunately the water was a little muddy when we went, and we couldn't ride the row boats due to high tide. Despite this, it was a great stay and I would want to come back to see it during Autumn season as I heard its really beautiful.

    Comfortable stay located in the heart of Takachiho - close to the Gorge and the Takachiho Jinja where there is the Yokagura between Nov and Feb. The staff were super responsive and also recommended dinner places- also making the reservations for us. The hotel also provides cushions for the Yokagura performance. Rooms were large, clean and comfortable for 3 of us. There is ample on-site parking.

    Very cool traditional style room with modern ammenities (Toilet, shower, Bath). The downstairs area has an awesome collection of manga (however it is all in Japanese). We stayed here while we went to the Gorge and the Kagura Dancing. It is very close to both and worth the trip. The staff were very helpful and provided clothes washing service to us which was very helpful.

    Very kind and smiling receptionist. A spacious room, comfy futon, with a wonderful view on the valley. Everything was very clean and calm. You can visit Amanoiwato Shrine by foot, its entrance is like 200-400 meters from the guest house and you can even see one of the torii doors from the window. It's better to come by car so you can visit Takachiho nearby.

    Five star traditional Japanese breakfast, which was amazing! This was followed by a five star traditional Japanese dinner, which was even more amazing! The staff was exceptional, always attentive to the needs of my 90 y/o mother. The facility was beautiful and peaceful, with very tasteful art and gardens.

    The staff was incredibly nice and the view was absolutely gorgeous. We could walk in a few minutes to the temple and the Takachiho Gorge without a problem. The free breakfast was tasty and the rooms were nice and clean as well as the bathroom. We were also able to safely store out bags.

    Absolutely massive private tatami room. Free parking, and in a pretty good location. We left our car at the hostel, easy walking distance to restaurants. Maybe 20ish minutes to the Takachiho Shrine, and another 10-15 to get down to the gorge.
