Wan Wan Paradise Takayama

We stayed here during Golden Week. It rained on our check-in day, so we couldn’t use the outdoor dog run we were looking forward to, which was disappointing. The next day was cloudy, and we were able to let our dog play in the dog run until just before check-out. The Hotel building is old, but it was thoroughly cleaned, had no odors, and felt very clean. The meals were also delicious and we were very satisfied. Everything was truly dog-first, which we appreciated. One thing I’d like improved: in the small-dog area of the dog run (perhaps due to the rain), there were a lot of dead branches and leaves. Every time our dog ran, they would stick into their paws and cause pain, so we had to keep removing them over and over. I hope the dead branches and leaves can be cleared away as well. This is a Hotel we would definitely like to stay at again.

The room exceeded our expectations! It was clean and well-maintained, with no odors often associated with pet-friendly accommodations, making it very comfortable. The meals and the staff's service were absolutely wonderful. We will definitely return. If I may make one suggestion, it would be great if the path from the main building to the onsen area could be made a bit easier to walk on. While the distance is not significant, walking after sunset felt a bit uneven.
