Close to the deer park and lots of temples ##### Maria Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### sarah 9 Mar 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great little Japanese style hotel. Friendly staff and a great area. Close to shops and easy walk to the deers. ##### sarah Stayed 1 night in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Adrienne 21 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This is a great way to experience an “authentic” ryokan - it has bathroom facilities but otherwise it’s futon, tatami matting and green tea. But the best feature by far was the ‘ofuro’ the delightful hot bath. A booking gets a guest 50 minutes of calm relaxation. Remember that there are no meals but there are plenty of small local places for dinner and breakfast. Just delightful! ##### Adrienne Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Meagan 9 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities This ryokan is very charming and also very close to the tourist areas, but in the narrow side streets so it is quite quiet. I really enjoyed this place. I strongly recommend! ##### Meagan Stayed 1 night in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Iris 16 Sept 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I had a wonderful two night stay here.

Great location. Nice small onsen. Looks like the rooms have been redone recently. ##### Bob Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Jermaine 21 Jul 2025 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Traditional style Inn Traditional style ryokan for a reasonable price. It had its own onsen for private use which was nice since I have tattoos and could not attend other onsens. However the cleanliness could’ve been slightly better. The room was quite nice but if you’re traveling with others be aware they are small as are the in room bathrooms. Overall I liked the place. Central to Nara and the parks and shopping. ##### Jermaine Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Richard 5 Oct 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Very friendly and helpful staff. Affordable, clean and well located ryokan… our first stay in a ryokan, and highly recommend. They also have an onsen, which was very relaxing. ##### Richard Stayed 1 night in Oct 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ana 21 Nov 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Conveniently located.
