  • Because we enjoyed our previous stay so much, we came back again. It was convenient to leave our luggage at the information center in front of Kintetsu Nara Station. The Room had an even better view than last time, and my mother was delighted. We were able to relax in a private dining room for both dinner and breakfast. The meals were delicious as well. Thank you very much.

  • The Room had a private open-air bath, and it was wonderful. We also enjoyed the delicious drinks and snacks. The meals were generous in portion, and the Yamato beef shabu-shabu was especially excellent. The children were thrilled with the table tennis and board games as well!

Remarks
Since ancient times in Japan, “medicinal baths” have been enjoyed for therapeutic bathing. At our property, you can enjoy a unique bath that combines a soothing medicinal bath inspired by the land of Manyo with water enriched with mineral components gently released through contact with natural mineral stone “Komeiseki.” Bathwater heated with Komeiseki is colorless, odor-free, and is known to offer eight benefits. This natural mineral bath additive is designated as a quasi-drug (Quasi-drug No. 43D-251). It may help with neurosis, rheumatism, lower back pain, hemorrhoids, sensitivity to cold, stiff shoulders, postpartum sensitivity to cold, and fatigue recovery. “Medicinal Bath Benefits” Ingredients: Phellodendron bark (Obaku), Angelica pubescens root (Dokukatsu), Japanese angelica root (Toki), Cnidium rhizome (Senkyu), Peony root (Shakuyaku), Citrus peel (Chinpi), Mugwort leaf extract Effects: Stiff shoulders; neuralgia; lower back pain; chilblains; hemorrhoids; sensitivity to cold; rash
