Yoshidaya Ryokan よしだや

An older hotel with exceptional staff and a fantastic location. The check-in service was phenomenal and I was given thorough explanations of facilities and recommendations for sightseeing and restaurants nearby. I had a Japanese style room with view of the pond out front and while the interior was a bit dated that in itself has its own charm and everything worked as it should. And waking up to a view of the pond with deer casually walking along it was very refreshing! The breakfast was Japanese washoku and was really good, I was served in a private room and got completely different selection of food both days and they were both delicious and exactly the right portion size. A lot of Nara's more popular attractions were just a few minutes walk away and staying here allowed me to beat the crowds and enjoy the spots without any queues. I am really glad I ended up staying in Nara and not just make it a daytrip, I got way more enjoyment out of it this way and will definitively recommend it.

Centrally located in Nara- stations, shops, Nara Park are all within easy walking distance. Service was impeccable all round. Rooms were clean and private bath facilities were convenient. Thank you.

Overall the best stay we had on our Japan trip. Shopping streets are close by and so is the Nara parks. The food was wonderful and the staff are amazing and very welcoming.

子供にも色々と配慮してくれてとても助かりました

観光地のど真ん中でロケーションは抜群です。 24時間無料サービス券を頂けるとのことで、チェックアウト後も駐車可能で、翌日は安心してならまち散策を満喫できました。 接客はみなさん素敵な笑顔で丁寧に対応してくださり、とても良い思い出になりました。 室内露天風呂から眺める猿沢池はとても良い景色で、頭寒足熱で最高の温泉気分。味わえました。 ありがとうございました！
