Traditional style Inn

Traditional style ryokan for a reasonable price. It had its own onsen for private use which was nice since I have tattoos and could not attend other onsens. However the cleanliness could’ve been slightly better. The room was quite nice but if you’re traveling with others be aware they are small as are the in room bathrooms. Overall I liked the place. Central to Nara and the parks and shopping.

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

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

Lovely quiet ryokan with onsen

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 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.

Joel, 1-night trip

Great Ryokan, poor staff.

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.
