Ryokans in Shiki District

Japanese hospitality to its very best. Great location just steps away from the Great Budda. Very friendly and helpful staff just when you need them most, especially when you are in tight schedule on train. "Luxurious" outdoor onsen with a wonderful view of the pagoda. A perfect place to stay in Nara!

amazing environment, most wonderful and helpful staff, dinner is acceptable, overall a pleasant stay!

The hotel is close to Todaiji temple and is around 15-20 minutes from either of the train stations. It's worth the effort. The tatami room was spacious and clean and had all anticipated needs...free cold beer was a welcome surprise after the hot onsen.

Apologies that we arrived late at hotel an hour after the dinner time. Thanks hotel owner offered to servie us late dinner! We stayed at hotel for 2 days with half-boarding.

So glad we chose to stay with them to explore Yoshino! Definitely a 5-star! Highly recommended!

However there is no passenger lift available, if you hate stairs you may need to reconsider.

We are a group with 7 family members, booked a 5-bed and a 2-bed room for 6 nights' stay. Hotel Kuramoto is a nice hotel with tatami, similar to a traditional Japanese ryokan. Large tables available inside the room so we could chat & have snacks around the table. Perfect for those travelled with family members. Traditional Japanese hot bath available free of charge in the hotel but it was a pity that we did not have time to enjoy it. Hotel staff were nice and helpful, despite the fact...
