I have never been so welcomed by a hotel where their offering and servicing is so customer oriented, leaving a very impressive memory from start til checking out The quality on the catering side was slightly below par but was justified by the price they charged.

Many people say do Nara as a day trip but we disagree. Nara is a wonderful town full of artisans and cutting edge design and a slower pace of life. The Hotel New Wakasa reflects that spirit and is a top notch Japanese hotel with exceptional service, gorgeous rooms and a wonderful public bath. We can’t say enough about our time there and what wonderful time we had there.

They were so kind and helpful. We had one of the smaller rooms, but still way more spacious than something in Tokyo within our price range. The room and private bath were so beautiful. We ordered the Japanese dinner and breakfast and it is a must if you stay here! You’ll try foods authentic to Nara specifically and the amount you receive is more than plenty. Would highly recommend this stay to anyone even for just one night, as that is what we did to relax in the middle of our busy trip. ##### Brooke Stayed 1 night in Apr 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Vince 2 Jan 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We had a great experience at New Hotel Wakasa and the staff were super helpful. We arrived to Nara early and the hotel was able to hold our luggage for us. During checkout, they were also able to hold our luggage for us (before 3pm) so we could spend one last afternoon in Nara luggage free before leaving the city. The hotel has been renovated and the rooms each have a unique interior design with really high quality finishes and fixtures. We got the breakfast and dinner options at the hotel and the food was great. Finally, the public bath was a great way to end the day. The hotel is a bit further from the main stores and shopping area (10-13min walk) but it is quite close to Nara park area and a few local spots. We would definitely come back in the future! ##### Vince Stayed 1 night in Dec 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### SCOTT 2 Apr 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This is a nice small boutique hotel with an attentive staff. My family of three, which included my wife and our young adult daughter, had been staying in more western-style hotels in Tokyo and Kyoto with 3 beds. Because of that, I was a little surprised when we arrived here and discovered a tatami room with a table and chairs and no beds or futons. What the staff explained is that when we wished to sleep we should notify them and they would come and remove the table and put down the futons. The process worked well but it did take some getting used to. They do have a very nice breakfast and onsite onsen. ##### SCOTT Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Makiko 24 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities 立地が良く観光に便利でした。また、スタッフの方々が感じがよく親切でした。 ##### Makiko Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Marco Matilde 11 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service ##### Marco Matilde Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Yukie 9 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities ##### Yukie Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Olivia 1 Jun 2025 ##### Olivia Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Anna 19 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities A unique experience of more traditional accomodation.
