Easily the best accommodation we have experienced. Wonderful place from which to enjoy Nara. Traditional and convenient.
Authentic ryokan, beautifully decorated.

Great spacious clean authentic house
Beautiful newly renovated authentic town house. Lots of space, very clean and all facilities you could need. We loved the traditional dining area and the cosy nook upstairs for extra sleeping quarters/watching tv. I had a great soak in the tub and then a very comfortable night's sleep. Wish we were staying more nights. Good value for money imo. Location was fine, between both Nara stations.
Ok I saw reviews about a strange odor and yes there is but you get used to it quickly. I believe it is just new wood and tatami mat smell.

Very impressed and would stay again
Beautiful apartment in a great quiet location in Nara. Very comfortable facilities and lots of room for the family. Very clean and everything you might need was provided.
Die Villa liegt in einer ruhigen Seitenstraße im Zentrum von Nara, wenige Minuten zu Fuß vom Eingang des Nara-Parks entfernt. Im Vergleich zu anderen Quartieren in Japan ist die Villa riesig. Im EG befinden sich Küche, Wohnbereich und Badezimmer mit einer tollen hölzernen Badewanne. Im OG ist der Schlafbereich mit 2 Betten sowie einer weiteren Fläche für Futon-Betten. Dort befindet sich auch ein großes SmartTV. Die Küche ist gut ausgestattet (wir haben allerdings nicht gekocht; es gibt viele Möglichkeiten, in Nara gut zu essen).

It is a shame that the villa is so poorly managed as we can tell that the owners have invested significantly in the interior decor. The house is beautiful, blending Japanese traditional style and modern comforts, with heated flooring and sufficient air conditioning.
The villa is very poorly managed, and we completely agree with the latest review that it is not functional. The kitchenette is so sparsely equipped that you can barely have a comfort takeout meal - only 5 tiny plastic plates and glasses, with disposable-looking cutlery, a pot and a ladle. Forget about any kind of light cooking at all. The microwave / oven looks old and complicated to use, I couldn’t even figure out how to safely heat up food from Lawson’s. There are no knives or pans or proper mugs / cups / glasses provided. Why bother providing a kitchenette if all you can do is to boil water in there? Oh, and the trash bin in the kitchen is so small that it fits about one bento box before it’s full. There are no instructions on where you can dispose of combustible waste.
The communication with the villa management is non-existent. I had sent more than 5 messages about 3 different topics, including luggage transfer, operating the appliances in the villa and trash disposal, but there was zero response over 4 days. Good luck if you need any kind of urgent help.
Other aspects that were mentioned in the earlier comment that were an issue for us too:
- No hooks / hangers in the doorway for coats
- No hooks / storage in the bathroom for towels / change of clothes
- No space for drying your clothes if you use the washing machine
- No counter space anywhere in the apartment
- Beautiful rice paper blinds in the bedroom that lets in the first light at sunrise - our toddler woke up 2 hrs earlier than usual every morning
Location: it’s about 7 mins away from the Nara JR station and 10 mins from the start of Nara Park. Quiet residential street with not much food / coffee options within 5 mins walk. Not the worst location but not the most convenient if you’re traveling with big luggage.
