Mikasa
630-8202 Nara, Nara, Kawakami-cho 728 , Japan – Great location - show map
We took the room with private open bath, to enjoy it together as the onsen is otherwise sperated for man and woman. It was an amazing experience to have the dinner and breakfast served in the private traditional restaurant room overlooking the little garden with water. The staff was very kind and professional, felt very much taken care of, can totally recommend! It was the full experience taking a bath in our own garden and then dressing up in the yukata for the dinner and breakfast. 10/10 worth every penny!
GermanyWe had a room with the view of temple and Sakura and it was memorable moment
United States of AmericaThe location and the vibe. It's close enough to the main attractions (especially with the shuttle bus service), yet offers sufficient respite from the bustling city. The facilities are great and as shown in photos. The room is clean and comfy. The meals provided are awesome and with lots of varieties to let us have a taste of the various traditional Japanese food. Last and most importantly, the service is really top-notch. Special thanks to Sho-san for making sure we are well taken care of.
SingaporeThe Japanese breakfast was nice...lots of little bowls and choices. A great deal of food was offered. Very tasty. I also liked that they had a coffee station in the main lobby.

PortugalDinner and breakfast was delicious. The hot tub was very relaxing. Very peaceful setting amongst the forest.
MalaysiaIncredible views in the room, and we had a delicious kaiseki meal. Staff went above and beyond to ensure we had a great stay! Their office in the centre of Nara is extremely helpful, and you can store your luggage there prior to your stay and wander around town leisurely
United KingdomDer traditionelle Stiel der Unterkunft wie auch der Service der bis über alle Massen wunderbar war.
Switzerland료칸을 이용하고 싶다면 여기만한 가성비 숙소가 없다. 산 중턱에 위치하고 있지만 접근하기 편하도록 역에서 픽업해주는 송영버스가 다니고 체크아웃할때도 마찬가지로 데려다준다 거기에 역 근처의 안내소에서 짐도 맡아주니 금상첨화. 제공되는 가이세키 요리는 저녁, 아침을 막론하고 모두 수준급의 맛있는 식사를 제공해준다
