Beautiful and fancy stay. They were VERYY hospitable. Never stayed in a traditional Japanese room before so that was an interesting experience. The private bath was excellent. Super close to Nara park.

It's my first time staying at Hotel New Wakasa. I travelled with my husband and two kids (10 and 15 yo). We took train and walked about 15 minutes to the hotel. We have booked the room with our own tub with mountain view. We were greeted by the friendly staff. They took us to the room. There were some complimentary drinks for adults and kids. The room was very clean and we liked the design a lot. Slippers were all prepared at the front door. Our booking included one half board dinner and a breakfast. The staff will come to our room to set up the bed when we stepped out for dinner. The food was delicate and delicious. During dinner, the hotel had hired someone to play music and she would come to each table and asked if there's any specific piece you would like to hear. There was also a rooftop for you to enjoy sunset or sunrise although it was a bit windy and cold when we went in mid March. There was also a small outdoor playground for little kids. We have tried the public bath separately for men and women, not too crowded. The overall experience was great.

We have been to many onsen ryokan and the quality has been declining in general in terms of food and amenities but Hotel New Wakasa made us want to book our trip to it again next year! It is considered as one of our best onsen ryokan experience in the past ten years for overall quality. I didn’t know their staff names but all of them are welcoming with a good smile and helpful. Our teenage birthday boy got a surprise dessert platter at dinner which was very thoughtful and we appreciated it soooo much coz we didn’t know where to get a cake nearby 😆 The deer decorations are everywhere and we just enjoyed everything in the hotel so much! Rooms are clean and tatami beddings are very comfortable. We are a party of two groups. One is a double room for two people and one is with private onsen for a group of 4. Staff put our rooms next to each other which is very thoughtful because we didn’t even request it. Both rooms were immaculate. The bathrooms are very clean and well equipped. The hairdryer in our room is sth I really like! The Toto electronic toilet bowl control has such a sleek design and being installed at the best position. We had a truly relaxing and joyful experience in Nara and would like to once again extend our gratitude to all of the staff in the hotel because they made our stay over the top. Parking spots: can easily find one nearby.

Room 401 was excellent, spacious, quiet and private. Hotel roof terrace was lovely (even in the rain!). Dinner and breakfast (Japanese) very good and staff very helpful in explaining the various dishes. Great location for temples/ deer park etc.
