The hotel is in an exceptional location, within easy walking distance of Muro-ji Temple, which gives the stay a rare feeling of peace and seclusion. There are many beautiful routes nearby for walks and hiking through the forest, and places like the Art Forest are also easy to explore. Even without a car, you can still do a lot: with a bit of planning around the timetable, it’s possible to take the bus to a nearby town/village and come back the same day. The rooms are truly stunning — traditional Japanese style with beautiful details, very calm and atmospheric. A special thank you to the host: he personally prepared a traditional dinner for us, and it became one of the highlights of our trip. He was exceptionally kind, attentive, and helpful. We were traveling without a car, and he even drove us to the store a few times, which we really appreciated.

This was by far our favorite hotel we stayed at during our trip in Japan. The place is located next to a kofun which makes the area so peaceful and quiet. At night you could hear the crickets and cicadas while being in your private hot tub in your private little garden. The room was very, very spacious, beautifully decorated. I wish we had planned more days in Nara, so we could spend more time in this little oasis.

I stayed in the old bulding and had the pleasure to listen to waterfall and frog sounds from the nearby river all night. Very soothing. The place has a great retro atmosphere, clean and nice onsen and great food. On top of that, when I inquired about public buses to Koyasan from near villages, I was told by the receptionist he will take me there the next morning via car. Free of charge. What a service!

Super big rooms (all the premises, actually) with one of the most comfortable beds I've slept in Japan, everything is spotlessly clean, the public bath is beautiful, the staff lovely, and there's a free shuttle bus to both JR and Kintetsu Nara stations. And all of this princess treatment for an unbelievably low price.

Lovely ryokan with friendly staff and excellent service. Experiencing traditional Japanese dinner and breakfast was amazing.The hotel is on a mountain and the view was great, but the downside is you can't get there by public transport. The hotel does have a free shuttlebus though so it's ok.

Great place. Deer everywhere!

Great place. Deer everywhere! The deer park was our main draw, the primeval forest and temples. Todaji temple was amazing. We loved walking the deer park, feeding the deer (and being nibbled by the deer). The primeval forest and carvings in the Buddha caves were challenging to find but great fun. A relaxing place.

I really enjoyed my stay.

I really enjoyed my stay. The area is peaceful and the hotel has a very relaxed, but high-end vibe, minus amenities like pool, gym, restaurants. Although they have a nice restaurant next door with grocery/gift shop. The staff are wonderful and make you feel very welcomed! The hotel is at a base of the mountain and is outside the city which is worked for me, but if you need to be in the center till late, you will need to chip out the $10 taxi ride from the station. Will definitely visit again!

i liked the Kashihara Jingu and the visit to various burial places of former tenno. on my last day, i visited the Omiwa Jinja; there is an observation hill where you could watch the sunset over Kashihara city. walking around town however, you can notice the signs of declining population and abandoned shops. there are a few good ramen shops in the area if you know where to find them, like Saika Ramen, highly recommended for its spicy flavour.

The shrines, temples, deer, and natural setting are a delight. Fellow tourists are not such a delight. I wish there was some attempt by the authorities to control the torture of the deer. It was so dispiriting that I went through minor roads this time just to avoid the spectacle. Happily, I found additional delights off the beaten path.
