Wife and I stayed one night here to get away from the busy life of Tokyo and Osaka and this was an absolute treat. The ryokan was peaceful, clean and very relaxing. The staff all greet you upon arrival and your dedicated staff member takes care of everything up until you go into your room. You are then given instructions and are able to ask any outstanding questions. Our stay included dinner and breakfast which is a must. The course meals were absolutely amazing, and once done, we went to our rooms to use our private bath. I cannot say enough great things about this place! The only thing to keep in mind is that getting to the ryokan can be a bit tricky. Once you get to the Kintetsu-Nara station, the office is across the street and clearly says "Mikasa Ryokan". You go in there and ask the shuttle times, which you can go on even if you do not reserve it, though space might be tight. You can also drop off your luggage to roam around Nara, but you need to let them know when you will board the shuttle, so it will go with you to the hotel. Be aware that the shuttle has LIMITED times it runs, but there is a taxi spot at the train station you can use if the shuttle is not in service. Overall, we absolutely loved this ryokan and plan to make it a regular stay when in Nara!

This ryokan was an amazing experience! We were able to have as close to an onsen experience as we were going to find with the open-air bath in our room. The food was amazing! The variety & quality were top notch!

This Ryokan was beautiful and the meals were amazing! Staying there and spending the day in Nara park with the bowing deer was the highlight of my 2 week trip! I highly recommend this Ryokan.

We were really impressed by the hotel when they received us with our names on the board and immediately assigned a staff to guide us to a sitting area where drinks and snacks were served ! Check in was done very quickly and we were guided to choose yukatas before we were brought to our room. The view from the traditional tatami room is breathtaking ! We also had the choice of dining in room or at the restaurant. We enjoyed our stay there and the shuttle service made staying in the mountains a breeze. We will stay again if we revisit Nara !

It’s a nice property with a beautiful view of the city. The staff are very friendly and accommodating. My husband and I stayed at the maisonette room and it’s beautiful and relaxing it’s good for a family or big group. The food they served us are delicious. I highly recommend! But be sure to have a vehicle or taxi to get there. We tried to walk to the property from the bus stop and it’s quite a hike but the men at the check point helped us and called the property to pick us up.
