Spa Hotel Alpina Hidatakayama is a centrally located, well appointed hotel within central Takyama, close to the stations, the old town and a myriad of temples, shrines and cemeteries. Staff were helpful, kind and accommodating.
The top floor baths were a real treat after a long day.
The breakfast buffet, at 1600 yen per person, was pretty much what you'd expect, a little uninspired but convenient.
