First time at a Ryokan. Wonderful experience from when we first arrived until we left. Room was beautiful and private onsen was luxurious, we spent a lot of time there! 100% get the Breakfast and dinner package, it was such a unique experience with lovely traditional meals and it was very large portion for 2 people. They also provided a lot of free amenities that we could take home with us including photographs and a traditional pouch/bag. i would definitely recommend this Ryokan to anyone planning to visit Nara.

Excellent location. We walked to the hotel with luggage from the train station,10 minutes down a cool street. Used a holylfy e sim for GPS and downloaded the Taxi Go App to get back to the train station for under $8. The New Wakasa staff made the absolute best check in, you have to go to experience it. Rolled out the red carpet, made sure we were comfortable from check in to check out. Breakfast was awesome, we did 1 japanese style and 1 western style. Both great, but Japanese style was such a lovely display. You can walk to the Deer Park, walk to temples. The Onsen was super nice and we both had the room to ourselves. The rooftop terrace gave us a beautiful sunrise view. I honestly feel this was one of my best hotel experiences ever, 5 stars in my opinion. The gift shop was cool and just 3 doors down, not towards the deer park, but the other direction was a really nice cookie and sweets shop.

Hotel New Wakasa lifts the fame of Japanese hospitality to another level.
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.
All in all, it is a very nice accommodation to relax and the experience was well above expectations

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!

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. Thank you!

Nice clean onsen in the room and the public bath.. Convenient parking right next to hotel. Location quite far and not easy to find when walking from shopping area of Nara especially at nite. Would be better if the newly renovated rooms has modern bed instead of Tatami as it is difficult to get up when the bed is on the floor.
