Excellent in Everyway

This hotel is unlike the others in Gifu in that it is a western style hotel. A mini Ritz Carlton. Amazing location right on the river (ask for a room overlooking the river) with great restaurants and bar, plus health club. The rooms are extra large (a big plus in Japan) with all the modern facilites you expect from a western-run hotel, (Renaissance is run by Marriott) such as internet connection in the rooms, great all marble bathrooms (not pokey little ones normally in Japan). I particularly liked the roof top lounge. Opposite the hotel is an enormous sports stadium complex and a great park for strolling. And the best of all, no elderly loval guests wandering around the lobby in their bathrobes....
