Location peaceful beautiful country side with historic buildings a short walk away pampered

Outside bath for 2 was good. The Japan experience was outstanding- cloths to wear saki to drink food and eating on the floor all part of the experience In addition the walks around the place are amazing- 1000 year old tree at a world heratage temple 5 min walk away

Amazing traditional ryokan stay. Loved the onsen and getting to wear a traditional yukata. The meals served in our room were a traditional Japanese experience. Staff were lovely too.

Nice experience at traditional Ryokan.

Close to a beautiful temple that you can visit in the early morning almost with no tourists. The traditional Ryokan is situated on the top of a hill and forest. Nara is visited by a lot of people in summer and it was very hot. We where very happy to find shelter at this traditional and quiet place. A bus took us near there. We took a bath in the shared Onsen. One for women, one for men. The water was very hot. Except us, we where alone. At 18.30 we where served a wonderful meal in our room and our family of 4 had the best time. Afterwards they prepared our beds. Everything was done with a lot of care and we slept well.

Great authentic Japanese experience

This ryokan is a great experience and I definitely recommend it to everyone. Staff is super friendly and helpful, rooms are beautiful, food is delivered to your room and you can taste so many new things. With the japanese kimono and sake in your hand the experience is really authentic :)

Worth every yen.

Staff were amazing and couldn't do enough. The location is inside Nara Park which makes it perfect for exploring. This is an experience you should do at least one on a visit to Japan.

an experience

This felt like less of a hotel stay and more of an experience as a whole. If you are exploring Nara I would recommend taking at least a day to just enjoy this hotel stay. We were greeted by extremely friendly staff who helped us with every little thing, from taking our luggage to ordering a taxi for our departure. We were served luxurious meals for dinner and breakfast in our room, by staff who set our table and made our bed. The location was magical with beautiful nature and deers roaming around outside. They had an amazing natural hot spring bath as well. Would warmly recommend this place.
