A very Japanese style stay, this is an old place but well maintained, the view in front of the river is very pretty. Very close to walk to the Gifu Park. Staff was super friendly and very welcoming, I wasn’t able to use the onsen. I honestly would not have paid so much for staying there, the hotel smell is peculiar maybe like old place/ maybe was the wood.

This is an incredible hotel with tons of amenities and extremely helpful staff. We have traveled to many countries and this hotel staff wins the gold medal for hospitality! They helped with every aspect of our travel and stay.
We are a party of 6 with 3 river view rooms and they were all comfortable; and the onsen was spotless and enjoyable. You can also get free bikes to ride around the river with brand new paths and meander the city streets. I will certainly come back to Juhachiro again one day because of the sweet and kind staff.

A traditional Japanese inn and onsen which is nevertheless accessible to westerners by the simple addition of beds in otherwise entirely Japanese style rooms. Staff made up for limited English with a warm welcome and helpful approach. The hotel is in an historic street very close to the site of the cormorant fishing. Japanese buffet breakfast was first rate. Having the reception staff assemble outside the hotel to wave goodbye to departing guests was a lovely, and typical, touch.

Best hotel in Gifu

For a hotel that has over 150 years of history, this is very well maintained. Rooms were clean and very comfortable stay. The spring water for the Onsen was exqusite. They had different types of water for help improve skin and aching muscles. I cannot speak enough about their service. My son left his backpack on the bus on the way to the hotel. The staff made multiple calls to help contact the bus company and find the items. Highly recommend this hotel if you are in the area.

Great onsen hotel. It maintains its traditional architecture but the interior looks new and the whole place is kept very clean. There are a few different pools in the onsen which is nice. There is also a small onsen bath tub on the balcony of your room if you choose that room type, a pretty special experience. The set dinner was exquisite and the breakfast buffet was decent. The location is great if you plan to visit the Gifu Castle, you can literally walk to the ropeway station. In terms of down sides, the room is smaller than it seems and it is easy to miss the small road leading to the hotel entrance if driving at night. But these are really negligible issues. Last but not least, great customer service by every staff member we met. They speak English well too.

Great choice for the Cormorant Fishing

We chose this hotel to be close to the Cormorant fishing. The tourist boats leave directly in front of the hotel but the actual fishing happens upstream on the other side of the bridge. If you want to watch the fishing from the shore, walk upstream past the bridge and keep going until you get to a car park. From here you can access the rivers edge. The tourist boats will be lined up in the river so keep walking upstream until you are just in front of the 1st boat. The Cormorant fishing boats start a couple of hundred meters further up so you will get a really good view as they float downstream and approach the tourist boats. I recommend watching from the shore.

The hotel itself was very nice. We were 2 people in a Japanese style room with river view. Supposedly it fits 5 futons which would be a little tight. No blackout curtains and the light streamed in early, so if you are trying to battle jetlag then make sure you bring an eye mask. I found the futon to be comfortable but not the pillow which had some sort of inner rice construction. The staff were extremely welcoming. The English wasn't always the best but they tried and it added to the experience. Breakfast was really, really good. Mostly local food with some western options. We were the only 2 westerners at breakfast. There are local buses departing from the train station which get you close to the hotel. Ask in the tourist info office. The hotel has a free shuttle bus to the train station that departs at 0930.

Great for Japanese hot bath and cormorant fishing!

On a recent family trip to Japan, we stopped in Gifu to see the cormorant fishing (a fascinating and enjoyable experience), and had the good fortune to spend a night at the Juhachiro. It was a fantastic experience. The location was great -- an easy bus ride from the train station, right at the dock where the fishing and spectator boats leave from, in an area of town with a number of interesting traditional shops and restaurants. Our room was a large, extremely tastefully decorated Japanese style room, with a private bath, and a nice little enclosed viewing room, looking over the river. The breakfast buffet was delicious and full of surprises -- from Japanese specialties (including sweet fish soup) to western-style pancakes. And the onsen -- the Japanese hot baths on the premises -- was absolutely heavenly, including a traditional hot bath, and invigorating bubble-bath, and (our favorite) a natural hot spring bath.

Wonderful experience at a perfect location

My visit to Juhachiro exceeded my expectations. The previous weekend, I had stayed at a ryokan in Kyoto which was essentially a hostel in the middle of the city. Juhachiro was a true classic ryokan with numerous touches. I was greeted by name when the taxi dropped me off. I had originally booked a mountain view room but was upgraded to a river view. Mina san escorted me to my room, made me tea, and explained what the hotel had to offer and where I could find what I needed. The room was very comfortable, and tastefully decorated, and the bathroom was perfect, with everything I could need. The balcony overlooking the river was especially pleasant, and I spent sometime looking out at the water, city, and mountains. At night, I watched the famous cormorant fishers. All the staff were very friendly, helping me by suggesting places to eat and to where I could see the sights of Gifu. I did not take advantage of the onsen but I was aware of where it was and the hours. The bed was comfortable, and I do not even remember sleeping! Breakfast was tremendous. I loved the beautifully created pancakes especially. I recommend this hotel highly and have actively encouraged friends to visit Gifu and Juhachiro.
