Hostel Murasaki

We are situated in the beautiful city of Takayama which is extremely popular with tourists throughout the year.
We are offering accommodation, food and pay while still allowing for a good opportunity to travel the nearby areas such as Shirakawago, Kamikochi, Kurobe and other nature abundant areas in countryside Japan.

We are a traditional-style Hostel & Hotel group looking to recruit international travellers with work permits for work or international volunteers to work while on a working holiday or other similar visas. Most of our staff are successful business personalities and are looking to branch into the international market in terms of our ranks. We hold meals in the main Irori (sunken hearth) every so often between staff and friends, trying all types of food. If this is something you would like to be a part of in the short or long term, please consider joining us.

The experience was truly amazing! The whole team is kind, welcoming, and always available if needed. I spent three incredible weeks at the Murasaki Hotel, discovering so many things and meeting wonderful people. I highly recommend making a stop there!

I've spent one of the best summers of my life working at Hostel Murasaki, largely thanks to the wonderful people I've got to meet and the connections we've formed during our time together. Takayama itself is a super nice town to live in and the staff apartment we were housed in was a nice accommodation, after some little modifications we did with the managers. The work is doable, but the workload changes from one branch to the other. In any case, the managers and members of the staff are always there to help with any problems the volunteers could have. If I could go back there again, I would.

Thanks to this experience I had the opportunity to meet amazing people, both volunteers and managers, from all over the world. That said, I have noticed that the workload can vary a lot depending on the branch you are assigned to. We were mainly placed at Honten, which is the biggest branch, and sometimes we struggled to get everything done on time. On the other hand, if you are placed in one of the other branches the work is usually faster and lighter. I would suggest rotating volunteers more evenly so that the workload feels fair for everyone. Still, it was a truly amazing experience!

I appreciated the team & community spirit very much. All was well organised. Shifts were as accorded and they left lot of time to experience the local culture and visit nearby areas.

This was my first time travelling with worldpackers and I must admit it was overall a great experience! The working hours are respected and it is not too hard, the hostel team is open to working on accomodating the days off as best as possible and the atmosphere is very international (almost all the stuff is made up of international people).
The town is small but authentic!
