The traditional dinner and breakfast were exquisite, beautifully presented and full of flavor. The location is perfect — walking distance to Nara Park and temples, yet quiet and serene. The room was spacious, elegant, and very comfortable

This property offers access to a terrace and free private parking. The accommodation offers a shared kitchen and bicycle parking for guests. The Yoshi and his daughter were very enthusiastic and welcoming. During breakfast we would often have a quick chat that was nice. The layout of the breakfast/dinner area facilitates everyone to interact during breakfast. Also, on my Wednesday morning, other residents from Ikoma came to join which got me talking to some other locals.

It is situated 37 km from Mihara History Museum and features a shared kitchen. There is free private parking and the property provides paid airport shuttle service. Beautiful property and the host was amazing. He was so nice and gave amazing recommendations. He called a restaurant to make a reservation for which he recommended and it was one of the best yakiniku places we’ve been to. We also went out to a karaoke bar with him and we had a great time! It was a nice property but the host made the experience even better!

The property features garden views and is 29 km from Tanpi Shrine and 29 km from Mihara History Museum. Free private parking is available and the apartment also provides bike hire for guests who want to explore the surrounding area. Wonderful stay at this B&B in Kashihara! The owners were incredibly kind, even taking me cherry blossom viewing in Asuka Village. The location is quiet yet convenient, with a supermarket and convenience store nearby. I borrowed a bicycle from the owner to explore charming Imai-chō village with its beautiful old buildings and cafes and shops - a highlight of my trip! From Miwa Station, it's easy to hike the historic Yamanobe-no-michi trail to Tenri. Loved that too.

Set within 29 km of Subaru Hall and 40 km of Saifuku-ji Temple in Gojō, 奈良五條の宿 彩 irodori Private lodging features accommodation with seating area. This property offers access to a terrace, free private parking and free WiFi. The accommodation offers a 24-hour front desk, a shared kitchen and luggage storage for guests. Miyuki was wonderful: very helpful; charming and a terrific cook! The place could be a little hard to find but Miyuki picked us up at the station and it turns out there's an easy 15-minute walk to Suda station that's not on Google maps. It's a semi-rural setting and quite peaceful and was a great base for us for a day at Koyasan. The facilities were very modern and spotless and Miyuki's breakfasts were wonderful. Highly reommended, if the location suits you (as it did us.)
