This was absolutely one of the best stays I’ve ever had in Japan or any place else! The mom and daughter duo who run it are so sweet, helpful and genuine, the room was terrific, and breakfast delicious. The location is right where you want to be, within walking distance of lots of Nara sights and great food. I STRONGLY recommend staying at Matsumae Ryokan if at all possible.

建物自体はとても古い建物だとお聞きしましたが、内装や施設はとても綺麗に維持されていました。海外の方向けほ宿泊施設であることはわかっていましたが、日本人のわたしも素敵だなと思う趣のある旅館でした。 おもてなしの詰まった良い場所でした。
