A short walk from Takayama's old streets and morning market, Ryokan Asunaro layers on the charm — pick your own yukata, carry a cute towel basket to the quiet single bath, take free coffee by the lobby irori hearth — with a delicious Japanese breakfast. Its mood suits overseas visitors seeking old Japan. Watch-outs: Friday rates run high, one guest wanted warmer hospitality, and one missed the breakfast entirely.
