Search Ryokan in Sakurai

The dinner was amazing and we felt welcome and well cared for.

You never know which one to go with when scrolling through the countless options on the Internet, but we are very glad we stayed at Asukasou. The people were genuinely friendly and helpful and the room was really nice - the best futon I've ever slept on! There is an open air rooftop bath that is a must do if you stay here. Be warned: those travelling with English only may have trouble finding this inn as the sign (I think) was only in Japanese.

This Ryokan is located just a short walk to the major gardens and Shrines, and it's in the charming Nara town tradtional layout of buildings. It's all wonderful to get around on foot. The staff were most courteous and friendly, i felt like a welcome guest, and recommend this ryokan highly. Arigato gozaimas ta, Nara Ryokan!

A beautiful, traditional ryokan just a minute's walk from the station. The staff are very friendly, welcoming and efficient and greet you on your return with tea and sweets in your room. The surrounding area is beautiful, with the smell of trees and wood smoke. Amami is a bit of a hike from Osaka city but that just adds to the appeal. The onsen is very relaxing but some may be embarrassed bathing nude in front of others but if you can get over that then it is a fantastic experience. We had no...
