Nara offers several excellent Ryokan (traditional Japanese inns) and is a great place to experience Japanese hospitality. Staying in a Ryokan is a good choice for those who want to try something different from regular hotels or for families traveling with children who need a room suitable for everyone.
Tsubakiso is a traditional Ryokan located in the heart of Naramachi. Unlike many Ryokans, this place offers rooms with private bathrooms. Breakfast is available upon request. It’s a simple and cozy Ryokan.
