"Amazing place to stay in Nara, located right in the Park but in a quiet area.
Delicious traditional Japanese dinner and breakfast, they were even able to accommodate vegetarian requests.
Sleeping on the tatami was special!!
Very attentive and kind staff, the only note is that they don't speak English so make sure to have your phone with you with Google translate, especially at the restaurant.
The matcha tea ceremony was cute but very rushed (10 minutes in total)."

One of the best hotels if stayed in Japan and anywhere. Staff is great and rooms are spacious and clean. There are also several commodities for you to enjoy. Will definitely stay again.
Convenient too as it as across Nara Station. Easily accesible to many areas.

This is a 10 out of 10. The location at the edge of the forest is spectacular. The service is impeccable.
We are vegan and they accommodated us with
absolutely delicious meals. It is located just on the
outskirts of the Nara Deer Park where you are surrounded by a lovely forest ambience and yet you are just a short hike from the Park and its bustling surrounds. The trail just outside the Ryoken takes you
up the mountain.It is simply an awesome place!

We had a wonderful stay! Spacious rooms, beautiful views of the rice ponds. The staff was friendly and always went above and beyond for us. They made our stay extra memorable and we hope to return in the future.

The historically traditional architecture of the hotel is in itself worth a visit. The bathrooms could use updating, but like all other iconic hotels around the world, having the latest modern amenities takes second place to the sheer beauty and tradition of the place. I can't imagine staying anywhere else in NARA.

The advantage is that the accommodation is close to the train station, and a bus stop that is convenient for traveling to other tourist destinations is also nearby. The staff responded kindly, and the cleanliness of the accommodation was satisfactory. If I come to Nara again, I would like to stay at this hotel again.

The room was super clean and well-maintained, with complementary amenities (rice crackers, water bottles, etc.). There was a laundry machine, too, which was convenient. The proximity to both JR and Kintetsu Nara Stations (about 7 minutes on foot) was definitely a plus. I highly recommend this place for anyone.

This was such a special property that was the ultimate luxury. The staff was impeccable and kind and so helpful. The room was dreamy with every minor detail executed perfectly. Nothing was forgotten and the breakfast and dinner onsite was a beautiful experience with delicious food.

The staff here are the most welcoming and hospitable that I’ve ever encountered. This is our second time visiting the Setre Naramachi Hotel as a couple and it’s been nothing short of an absolute delight. The rooms are luxurious and spacious. The location is conveniently next to a station so traveling around Japan was easy to do. We can’t wait to come back!
