츠키히테이 료칸

조용하게 자연속에서 푹쉬고 싶은 분들은 적극 추천드립니다

Everything was perfect

A beautiful spot in the forest, although just a bit far from the sights in Nara. The staff was lovely and the room quite comfortable, by Western standards for a Japanese room (although the futons were by far the hardest and most uncomfortable of the three ryokans we visited). The meals lived up to the reviews, beautifully presented true kaiseki.

Das Ryokan ist sehr schön im Wald gelegen Das Erlebnis ist eine Bereicherung. Das private Bath sollte man unbedingt nutzen Die Übernachtung war ein Highlight auf unserer Japan reise und Nara ist ein Muss .

Nice service

Une expérience unique tant par le cadre exceptionnel, la beauté des lieux, les attentions du personnel, un repas divin pour les papilles et les yeux. En bonus la visite des daims !

A hidden gem right in the heart of Nara Park, tucked away on a small hill, surrounded by verdant greens. Purely magical, a sanctuary that stands in stark contrast the frenzy of the deer feeding tourists and the bustle of Osaka! There are 3 western style rooms (useful for those who can’t sleep on tatami floors), underfloor heating, air conditioning and private dining rooms with personalised service! We felt so pampered. Service was top notch with one of the best kaiseki dinners and breakfast we’ve ever had. Recommend room with half board. Found the traditional mattresses a tad thin for me but truly no complaints! Would recommend 2 nights to fully unwind and explore surrounds. Well maintained, beautiful rooms with minibar stocked - all inclusive!

We stayed for two nights in one of the traditional rooms with kaiseki and it was one of the best experiences we have had anywhere in the world. The food was amazing and the staff were very polite and professional. Walking through the park from the front door or into town is also great! The private baths were super relaxing. I also recommend having the staff order you a massage and you will not be disappointed!

Our stay at this ryokan was truly the most relaxing and beautiful experience we’ve ever had. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with such genuine hospitality that we felt like cherished guests. The traditional tatami rooms were impeccably clean and serene, with a breathtaking view of the surrounding nature that felt like a scene from a postcard. The onsen was an absolute highlight—soaking in the soothing hot spring waters under the open sky was pure bliss. Every detail, from the carefully arranged yukata to the thoughtfully prepared tea set in our room, reflected the ryokan’s dedication to providing an authentic and peaceful escape. The kaiseki dinner was an unforgettable culinary journey, with each dish meticulously crafted and presented like a work of art. Breakfast the next morning was equally exquisite, featuring fresh, local ingredients that perfectly complemented the tranquil ambiance. We left feeling completely rejuvenated and already dreaming of our return. This ryokan is not just a place to stay—it’s an experience of Japanese culture, hospitality, and relaxation at its finest. Highly recommended to anyone seeking a haven of peace and beauty.

This is a truly unique property. Our room was stunning as was the hotel property and surrounding forest.

Fue la mejor experiencia de mi vida !!!! La comida deliciosa, el servicio excelente, hermoso lugar en la naturaleza.

Location, service, food and tranquility were all amazing. You won’t regret your stay here (ask for the Sakura Room).

This is a 10 out of 10. The location at the edge of the forest is spectacular. The service is impeccable. We are vegan and they accommodated us with absolutely delicious meals. It is located just on the outskirts of the Nara Deer Park where you are surrounded by a lovely forest ambience and yet you are just a short hike from the Park and its bustling surrounds. The trail just outside the Ryoken takes you up the mountain.It is simply an awesome place!

I loved the suite we had with 2 twins. The beds are more like full size and are together in the huge bedroom. The suite is similar to a large apartment. We were greeted by the most amazing and friendly staff. They come out personally to greet you at arrival and to say good bye when checking out. The dinner was in our personal suite and consisted of 10 courses that were delicious. There are free drinks and beers in the refrigerator and we purchased sake for dinner. The breakfast was served in our personal suite and was traditional Japanese breakfast. Our attendants were so sweet for dinner and breakfast. They made me feel so welcome and special. I would say this was probably one of the best parts of my trip to Japan. If I return to Nara Park in the future I would definitely stay here again.

Tucked in the hills of Nara this four room Inn is super private. The ladies dressed in their kimonos provide 5 star customer service. With the kaiseki meals you get a throwback to traditional Japanese customs during your stay here. This is the most traditional Japanese stay you can experience, a true ryokan. Here are a couple things I did not see in other reviews I read. The room has a traditional bathtub and shower setup but there are also two much larger, nicer setups you can “book by time”. Seeing that there are only a handful of rooms these are easily, readily available and private. I would highly recommend this. Lastly, you are in the mountains of an old traditional ryokan. There are spiders, critters of all sorts that make their way into your room and around your meals. This is the only downside we experienced but I’m not sure how you can avoid it being nestled into the forest. This is not the 100 story mandarin oriental. This is a portal back in time so just go into your stay with that in mind.

An excellent choice to stay in this 200-year old property. Staff are extremely friendly and helpful. Enjoyed the dinner set which is beautiful and delicious.

Totally lovecthe ryokan and its location. Just 2 3 km walk to the top of the mountain. Stunning food and hinoki bath. Worth every cents.

For all the traveling I've done in my life, Tsukihitei Ryokan will remain close to my heart as one of the most memorable stays I've had. It is everything you will want in a Ryokan experience. I believe we experienced the most traditional Ryokan in Japan. We really did step back into time for two days and loved every aspect of it. We decided to stay two nights to really immerse ourselves in the experience. Upon arrival, we were given a tour and then shown our accommodations, which overlooked the woods of the Mt. Kasuga Primeval Forest. We were greeted with ceremonial matcha green tea. Our dinners and breakfast were absolutely incredible. The presentation was artwork. We were served in a private dining room that was connected to our sleeping room, which made it all feel very personal and private. All the meals were distinctive in their flavors and tastes. Walking the line between thoughtfulness and artwork, the food was just another extension of all the other wonderful elements we experienced while staying at Tsukihitei. The two bathing houses were gorgeous and luxurious, lit up by stained glass windows. The aesthetic felt like it belonged in an ancient forest. The customer service was top notch. Everyone was so kind to any need we had during our time there. From our first greeting to our last, we felt very taken care of. I will never forget how magical the experience was. I hope to go back there one day and stay with them again.

We spent a couple weeks in Japan, and our stay at Tsukihi-tei was one of the hightlights! The location in the forest is amazing. The staff was fantastic - from greeting you on arrival they make every effort to make you feel welcome. The food is the best we had while we were in Japan. If you want a wonderful ryokan experience, I would highly recommend Tsukihi!

落ち着ける場所で心地よい宿でした
