Mi estancia fue una experiencia ÚNICA!! Llena de bellos detalles que me fascinaron. El hotel no se ve lujoso cuando entras pero solo te llevan a tu habitación y te enamoras, no hay camas porque es un hotel típico japonés pero a las 8:00 pm pasan a alistar los Futónes japoneses para que descanses como Rey, literal se me ajusto la columna. No olviden pasar al Baño Público del hotel, fue una súper experiencia y venden un producto que remueve la piel muerta para la cara y una crema DELICIOSA, no había sentido mi rostro así ni con las cremas La Mer. Al día siguiente te esperan con el desayuno listo y delicioso!! Definitivamente me encanto!! Y regresaría sin pensarlo dos veces 😍
Fantastic Japanese style hotel. Service excellent. Hotel cose walking distance to attractions. Dinner and breakfast was a delight. Hotel on old side but all the other highlights compensate.
We had a very genuine ryokan style stay with great food in the room an really great service. We have been really happy with this place.
The onsen was very nice, too
A very decent place with friendly staffs. The breakfast is

Good spot for everything in Nara
The hotel is perfectly located in Nara, close to everything (shopping streets, park, restaurants and sites to visit). Rooms are spacious, traditional like in a ryokan. It's more of a hotel than a real, traditional ryokan though, so keep in mind if you're looking for a ryokan immersive experience instead.
Meals were very good, and we had a pleasant stay in Nara
Nara Hakushikaso is located really close to the Kintetsu Nara station so it was easy getting to it. it's also within walking distance of the major Nara attractions. There's even a shopping street nearby. The food that came included with the stay was delicious and definitely felt worth the value of the stay. While it was fairly clean, it definitely wasn't as clean as some of my other stays in Japan. My only con for it is that the service as ryokan wasn't as great some of the other ryokans that I stayed at; however, it was also significantly cheaper too. One of my favorite things about the stay was the bath infused with silver ions and bathing in a tub carved out of a 1000 year old tree.
The location was very convenient to the big park and nearby shopping area. The room was large. Plenty of space for the three of us (parents and daughter) to spread out futons for sleeping. The futons were more comfortable for sleeping than I expected. We got half board, and there was a lot of food for dinner. There is a public bath, which our daughter used. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The place is a a little on the old side, but very comfortable and clean. Also, our room had a shower/tub and two toilets.
