The lovely Villa Takaosan is located on the outskirts of Tokyo in Takao. It is about an hour's train ride from central Tokyo train station and SO worth the extra effort to stay outside of the busy city. The Villa is about a twenty minute walk from the train station. We loved the cozy feel of the apartment and we enjoyed shopping for groceries at the train station and eating meals in our own kitchen. But, be sure to try out Café Toumai on the ground floor of the apartment. The food is WONDERFUL! We will be staying with Yuki again - either in Takao or at one of her other properties! Thank you so much for the outstanding hospitality!
