I had a great time at the hostel's kitchen! Daniel and Luke the managers were super nice, and Ratree the chef was 100/100!! I learnt new Thai recipes and enjoyed my time working. Takayama is a nice little town and wonderful if you want a break from traveling want want to rest a little

Hotel the hostel was an incredible stay meeting such vibrant people. Staff were very accomodating and easy to communicate with. The cooks were amazing at providing lunch and dinner options everyday which made it a great way to come together with all the other staff. Tasks were straight forward and we were well equiped with whats needed to get the job done.

My partner and I volunteered for two weeks cleaning and had a great experience. The operation was well-organized with clear instructions and helpful apps for communication. The staff were friendly and always available to help. We enjoyed free meals, laundry, and plenty of free time to explore the beautiful city of Takayama. Work was easy but varied by branch as some branches seemed more time consuming to clean than others. Overall, a positive and smooth experience!

Takayama is a quiet and peaceful place, there are many hiking routes. It is an area with a lot of tourists, I can't say it is a good place to experience local life. The meals was always delicious the work is not difficult and they shared in detail when and how much I should work, so it was easy to plan. The staff was nice and helpful. It's great place for staying while your travelling.

I really enjoyed the hostel ryokan!! one month felt too short ♥️ both the full time staff and volunteers have been so fun to make friends with! i got to practice my japanese here as well with the local staff 🫶 the kitchen shift is relatively new so the guidelines for kitchen volunteers are not fully ironed out yet! but there's also flexibility in what you want to cook so it's been a joy cooking vegetarian food 🍲 meals have been very inclusive to all diets, i highly recommend volunteering here🎶

The managers and the other volunteers were really welcoming. The food was good. The work was okey too, working hours were respected. Takayama is a really chill town, it's great if you love nature.

The kitchen is fully equipped, and they give you the opportunity to prepare dishes based on your own ideas. The staff is super welcoming and available. Regarding working hours, if you have any prior commitments and inform them in advance, they will adjust your shifts accordingly. During my first week, we had to work a bit harder because the head chef was away, but once she returned from her holiday, we only had to cook either lunch or dinner. This allowed us plenty of free time during the day to explore the surroundings. I enjoyed every moment in Takayama! Thank you everyone ❤️
