Wan Wan Paradise Takayama

1st thing is when I emailed the hotel about how to get there after a 5.5 bus ride THEY NEVER MENTIONED you had to take another bus to the hotel. The bus station was closed so we had to get a taxi for $82. 2nd it smells so bad of dog pee inside the room you can’t catch your breath or sleep. There is a beetle infestation and they are flying around buzzing you. We left early in the morning in the pouring rain. Couldn't get out soon enough! So bad it should not be listed on Expedias site. So gross!!! No stars!!!!!

We took japanese style bedroom but the futons were super thin so uncomfortable. The private onsen was a bit smelly making the experience less enjoyable. For the travel to reach the place, we struggle little to go by bus. For the positive, the staff was amazing and helpful, the breakfast has lot of varieties for everyone. The room was super clean, spacious and very beautiful. Spending time with dogs around was lovely... what an amazing concept hotel.

It’s all about dogs there. Love how the Japanese love their furkids. Hygiene measures, dog runs, dog onsen with humans, dogs can access everywhere in this hotel, even the restaurants.

Very friendly staff. Convenient in its location with a good price. One point though - I arrived without a dog... It let's for us since after all as much as it is clean it's still a place with dog standatds cleanliness... Also, I haven't reserved food and there are no restraints around the existing shop has very limited non-dog food. But I liked the place 🙂 it was cute and as I mentioned the staff were very nice and helpful.
