PaoloItalyTutto molto bello, struttura, pulizia, gentilezza, servizi, cena e colazione tipiche giapponesi.
Il prezzo forse leggermente eccessivo.
RolfCHDer ideale Ausgangspunkt für einen Besuch in Nara
Die Lage dieses schönen Ryokan, direkt beim Park war sehr praktisch. Das Zimmer war grosszügig und das private Onsen hatten wir sehr genossen. Auch der Privatparkplatz gleich nebenan war sehr praktisch.

Questions about Yoshidaya Ryokan よしだや
What time is check-in and check-out at Yoshidaya Ryokan よしだや?
Check-in is from 3:00 PM. Check-out is by 10:00 AM. If you're arriving late, tell us and we'll ask the property to hold the room.
Does Yoshidaya Ryokan よしだや allow pets?
No — the property states that pets are not allowed.
Is there parking at Yoshidaya Ryokan よしだや?
Yes — the property states that parking on site is free. Whether a space can be reserved in advance varies, so we check it against your dates.
Does Yoshidaya Ryokan よしだや have Wi-Fi?
Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.
Does Yoshidaya Ryokan よしだや have wheelchair accessible rooms?
The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.
How do I book Yoshidaya Ryokan よしだや?
Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.
Where is Yoshidaya Ryokan よしだや?
Takabatake-cho 246, Nara.
