Ryokans in Narai-juku

"Great staff, food, location and experience! "

"This was the most expensive accommodation we booked in Japan (there was nothing else available at the time) and sadly it was not worth the price. There was no communication from the hosts before arrival and we found it very difficult to find the exact address in order to locate it on our phones. We had booked dinner and breakfast and the food was average. The young man running the place was doing his best but it was a disappointing place. "

"Very easy process to self check in, room spotless, great free drinks options, excellent breakfast (would recommend getting double portion of 'toast', which is delivered to your door at specified time (you must choose order before 11pm). Great location next to lake front. Would def stay again 😎"

"Great place."

"the included Dinner and breakfast were excellent with so many courses and nicely prepared. Very impressive presentation. The onsen, sauna and cold bath was very relaxing. The tatami room was very spacious. In general, a very relaxing and enjoyable stay. A bit far, so shuttle was necessary for us without a car. Nothing nearby in walking distance. "

"Great."

"Perfect clean accomodation on the main street of Narai - closer towards the Shizume-jinja shrine. Thoroughly recommend for others to book and stay in. A huge private home that can easily fit two families with three large bedrooms that have multiple beds in each. Modern facilities such as kitchen, laundry, and bathroom. Takashi the owner was very helpful and pre booked dinner for us at one of the local restaurants. As everything closes early eg 4pm, it was comforting to know we had a dinner place to eat at. Thankyou Takashi! There is a new modern cafe right next door that was also open at night when we were there. The local cars that are allowed to drive on the Main Street were surprisingly very loud and noisy at night and early in the morning. With the paper thin windows everything can be heard. But this was ok for our family. The little shops were great to peruse through and visiting all the shrines behind the accomodation was relaxing."

"The room size for 2 was adequate, but not much extra space for suitcase storage. The hotel location is close to a main road with lots of dining options, but if you don't have a car to drive, the location is a 15 minute walk to the nearest train station. The buffet breakfast wasn't something I signed up for when making the reservation, but for some reason, for the two nights we stayed there, the buffet was "sold out", so breakfast was unavailable. Otherwise it was a nice stay, and the staff kindly let us check in a little early when we arrived ahead of schedule."

"Most excellent stay with impeccable hospitality. The hotel master provided us with superb dinner each day (even though I did not reserve dinner for the first night). Super worth the stay to explore kamikochi really early the next morning."
