Nara Ryokan

Stayed 1 night at Nara Ryokan. Generally we had a good time but there were a few issues that took away from the experience slightly (hence 4 stars instead of 5). Pros were: - Private onsen was really lovely after a long day of walking - Room itself was quite spacious and 'felt' like a real Ryokan (although it's more of an approximation of a Ryokan than a real one) - Beds were large and mattresses relatively comfortable Cons: - Maybe this is a normal feature of a Ryokan, but there were no curtains or way of reducing the light in the morning. Did not sleep well as a consequence - Staff could have been more helpful. Waited 10 minutes at reception for assistance before a staff member finally showed up.

A very small and charming ryokan. It’s the first spot we’ve been at providing toilet slippers. We enjoyed the private onsen.

Fairly close to sights and places to eat.

El hotel un poco sucio y te venden experiencia Ryokan la cual no lo es

Good

Great room, awesome private onsen experience, good location! Overall a really nice stay.

Our stay at Nara Ryokan was perfect - very lovely quiet stay and beautiful rooms, and an amazing onsen/public bath. It wasn't listed for the hotel, but you are able to reserve a "family time" for the onsen use where I was able to privately share the onsen together with my husband and our friends with tattoos were also able to utilize for their own private time, which was a great experience, particularly with the provided robes and slippers. The hotel is about a 10min walk away from the main station, and just around the corner from a lovely park with a nearby Starbucks and small park where the deer freely hangout and roam around. A truly lovely place to stay, would definitely stay here again!

It was good

It was a beautiful property and the Onsen was great as well.

Was initially going to leave a worse review after a terrible interaction with the woman on the front desk after she put use in a basic room after we paid for deluxe, then refused to move us. However the charm of the Ryokan itself, the great onsen and the free massage chairs somewhat made up for the rude service when checking in.

Great little Japanese style hotel. Friendly staff and a great area. Close to shops and easy walk to the deers.

We had the double and the room was very nice and quite big. Great location. Nice small onsen. Looks like the rooms have been redone recently.

お風呂が時間制限内は、他の人が入ってこないのでに荷物の盗難の心配がない

This ryokan is close to Nara Koen where deers are and 30mins walk to Daibutsu. The room was just like a joke. It remains me uni student flats in Showa, small 4 tatami rooms and futon. In Japanese, futons need to be folded down into three and stored in the cupboard called Oshiire but the futon was placed by the window just like a bed. I was quite uncomfortable with this and folded it down to lean against that just like a sofa. The wall is paper thin as I was annoyed by next door guests who were chatting till 11pm. The bath was not real onsen. Despite it got negative comments, I enjoyed the big bathtub as it was hot and I could stretch myself. But sadly, a bit yuaka was flotiong on water surface. Overall, it was a good, rather funny experience. I guess this ryokan is for budget travelers.

It was super easy to walk to from the metro. The area was quiet, peaceful, and there was a great area for shopping and eating. Nara park was not far. The ryokan was incredible and the temperature was perfect. The rooms were super clean and I love that they provided amenities.

Wonderful room, clean, perfect decoration. And near to everything. I will pretty recommend this hotel.

El lugar es súper lindo, y limpio. Está como a 15 min caminando del parque Nara pero la verdad ni se siente porque todo el camino lo disfrutas viendo cosas

Nice location and we enjoyed the private onsen

外国人観光者向けのホテルです。 周りに観光スポットがたくさんあり、観光客には便利です。大浴場は3人入ればいっぱいなので、時間別に貸し切りにするのは外国人観光客には好評と思われます。しかし、好きなときに風呂に入りたい、朝風呂を楽しみたいといった私のような客にはちょっと不便です。特に観光目的ではなかったので、駅から遠いこと、分かりにくい場所、コンビニが近くにないことがマイナス点でした。
