“A traditional ryokan nestled amidst pretty gardens, adjacent to the impressive Nara Park. Japanese-style rooms are light and airy with tatami mats, paper screens & lovely views. Regional meals are served in the guest rooms or the dining area. Atmospheric & well-located for seeing the historic city.”
