"Location, service, food and tranquility were all amazing. You won’t regret your stay here (ask for the Sakura Room)."

"A great place to experience a Ryokan, with its food and culture of traditional Japan. Quite out of the way but easy to reach by train. The location is marvelous next to one of Japan’s oldest temples. "

"The staff here is absolutely wonderful. They were so kind and helpful. We had one of the smaller rooms, but still way more spacious than something in Tokyo within our price range. The room and private bath were so beautiful. We ordered the Japanese dinner and breakfast and it is a must if you stay here! You’ll try foods authentic to Nara specifically and the amount you receive is more than plenty. Would highly recommend this stay to anyone even for just one night, as that is what we did to relax...

"The service was great and really appreciated the transport service from the station to the property. The only thing is the property is a bit dated and could use an uplift soon"

"What an amazing place to stay in Nara.. if you dont mind the walk is a beautiful area so no need to take buses to the hostel. Lovely receptionist as well."

"Wakasa Bettei surprised me as one of my favorite hotels in my 8-day Japan trip. I think it came down to the fact that the premises were cozy and new, the location was serene and close to Todaiji, and the staff were just so friendly. Absolutely gorgeous meals for dinner kaiseki and Japanese-style breakfast too. There's a goofy charm in having a violinist serenade us during dinner, and offering to take photos of us in our ukatas smiling next to their mascot. Both public bath options they offered...

"Amazing hostel in a 100 year old building! Beautiful garden. Central to all the attractions! Really really beautiful!"

"Beautiful classic hotel filled with original art and well preserved architecture. "

"Relax in the bath set on the balcony while watching the wonderful view. This is a hideaway inn that Japanese people don't know too much. We recommend this ryokan if you want to experience a real high quality Japanese ryokan service. In order to do so, you must also learn Japanese culture and manners before staying."

"Nice spot very close to the station. "
