The hotel has hosted legends, from Einstein to Audrey Hepburn, and even international celebrities and royalty have walked its hallowed halls. Located just a short walk from major attractions, you can easily explore Nara’s temples and parks without needing a car. One of the highlights? The hotel features one of the oldest and most serene gardens in all of Japan—peaceful, refined, and completely removed from the city’s bustle. The rooms are spacious, beautifully appointed, and come with modern amenities. Staff are attentive and genuinely warm. A complimentary shuttle service connects the hotel to key transport hubs, making travel stress-free. But the real magic happened on my private balcony: I watched a group of deer casually stroll by, some resting under the trees like they were part of the scenery. It was surreal and heartwarming. This isn’t just a place to sleep—it’s a destination in itself. If you’re visiting Nara, this hotel should be at the top of your list. It’s not just accommodation; it’s a piece of living history.

The location is perfect: just a short walk to Nara Museum and Shōsōin, and even closer to Nara Park, making it ideal for exploring on foot. The onsen was warm and relaxing—exactly what we needed after a long day of sightseeing. One standout moment was the kind hospitality from the male staff member on duty the evening of November 5th. It was raining when we left, and he kindly walked us to our taxi, holding an umbrella the whole way. That small act of care truly made our experience memorable. On the other hand, one of the younger female front desk staff seemed less welcoming—when we asked if we could pick up yukata in the lobby, she said they were already in the room, but we never found any. After checking with other guests, we learned the yukata are indeed meant to be collected at the front desk. A simple miscommunication, but something worth clarifying for future visitors. Overall, the warmth and attention to detail from most of the team more than made up for it. This ryokan offers incredible value and a genuine sense of welcome—definitely a place I’d return to without hesitation.

The sleepwear itself is made from calming, sleep-enhancing fabric—such a nice detail that shows how much they care about guest relaxation. The on-site hot spring is clean, well-designed, and easy to navigate. While the pool isn’t huge, it’s very comfortable and relaxing.
