This was such a unique experience. I enjoyed my stay and LOVED the in-room onsen tub.
I only wish there was a larger safe in the room. It was on the smaller side, so I couldn’t fit my laptop in it.

The staff are fabulous, very attentive and customer focused. We had an outdoor private bath which was wonderful and highly recommended. Our one complaint is the beds (futon) they were very thin and hard. We did not sleep well.

Staying at this ryokan was the absolute highlight of our 10-day trip to Japan! We stayed in Room 303 and loved having our own private mineral soaking tub out on the deck plus the public onsen. Everything about this place was clean, comfortable, and memorable. The private kaiseki dinner was beautiful, delicious, and very filling—an experience not to be missed! We were shocked after checking in to be offered a local guide to explore Nara the following day compliments of Wakasa Bettei. She spent half a day with us—exploring gardens, temples and sanctuaries, while providing stories and local history. A day we will never forget. Overall, our stay was phenomenal! Do not hesitate another minute to book.

I wanted to experience staying at a traditional ryokan on my first Japan trip, so chose this ryokan after doing much research. We stayed in room 301 which had a private open air onsen. The bath and separate shower were both very clean, the Shiseido shampoo and conditioner provided were wonderful, and the private onsen divine. I used it several times during my one night stay. The water was very warm and stayed warm. We had a kaiseki dinner and breakfast. The presentation was absolutely stunning, and the food varied and delicious. But the best part about this ryokan was the staff. From the receptionist who provided me restaurant recommendations for lunch to the staff who served us our meals, and the staff who helped book us a massage, they could not have been friendlier, more welcoming or more gracious. I happened to mention in an earlier conversation that we were celebrating a college graduation on this trip, and to our surprise they brought us a special dessert with sparklers at the end of our meal, which was so lovely. The ratings on various sites for this ryokan differed, but I give it 4 stars! Thank you to the staff for a truly wonderful experience!

Wakasa Bettei surprised me as one of my favorite hotels in my 8-day Japan trip. I think it came down to the fact that the premises were cozy and new, the location was serene and close to Todaiji, and the staff were just so friendly. Absolutely gorgeous meals for dinner kaiseki and Japanese-style breakfast too. There's a goofy charm in having a violinist serenade us during dinner, and offering to take photos of us in our ukatas smiling next to their mascot. Both public bath options they offered were so clean and relaxing and not at all crowded. I would not hestitate to stay here again.

Absolutely beautiful stay! Staff were all very friendly and attentive and it felt like a true luxury experience. We arrive early with luggage so we could go for a walk and it was all taken to our room by the time we checked in. Minutes away from Nara Park, and would fully recommend booking the private onsen if you can!

The food was authentic they serve you meal after meal in waves but it’s all in good portions so you won’t be too full to continue. While you eat dinner they’ll prepare your beds in your room. The room is spacious and there was a balcony, overall a very nice place.

First and only experience in a Ryokan, and I'm SO glad we did it. It was exactly what I hoped for and more. The staff were so friendly and accommodating and made this a great experience. The onsen baths are really nice and the whole place is so comfortable. They also will help you book a FREE tour of Nara park and the guide will meet at the hotel!

I went with my mom and sister. The room was adequate, very spacious and relaxing. The service was spectacular. I read many reviews before coming and was worried about what people said (not worth the price and spa was overrated). It was a little on the pricier side but the dinner and breakfast experience were amazing, so filling and delicious. I feel like the overrated parts were the personal tub and the public bath. Very simple.

The hotel is close to Todaiji temple and is around 15-20 minutes from either of the train stations. It's worth the effort. The tatami room was spacious and clean and had all anticipated needs...free cold beer was a welcome surprise after the hot onsen. If you can afford it, it's worth splurging on breakfast and dinner option ( there isn't much choice nearby). Everything well presented and so much choice...don't feel bad if you can't eat it all. The service and assistance fronm the staff was first rate. Very enjoyable stay.
