Mikasa

房間門窗夾層有蟲子

美食豐富，精緻

這間旅館位於奈良的若草山上，位置有點偏，但風景真的很棒，尤其是清晨，看到整個奈良市都籠罩在薄霧中，超級美。 房間是傳統的日式榻榻米房，住起來挺舒服的，但也沒有太奢華。溫泉是露天的，能邊泡邊看山景，真的很放鬆。不過，溫泉池不算大，如果人多可能會有點擠。 晚餐是懷石料理，對我們來說份量有點多。 總的來說，這裡適合想要遠離都市喧囂、靜下心來休息的人。就是要有點心理準備，這地方偏安靜，娛樂設施不多，重點是放鬆。

We stayed at Mikasa Ryokan (万葉若草の宿 三笠旅館) in Nara, and overall it was a great experience — but there are definitely some things you should know and plan for in advance. 🏞 1. Location & Transportation The ryokan is located halfway up Mount Wakakusa, with beautiful views over Nara city — the scenery is stunning, especially at night. But getting up and down the mountain isn’t very convenient. At first, I thought the location was right near Todai-ji Temple and would be easy to access. Turns out: The mountain road is very narrow and winding, and it actually takes longer than expected. According to the staff, walking up the mountain is not allowed. There's a gate, and the staff inside don’t permit people to walk up. Luckily, the hotel offers a shuttle bus up the mountain, but you should arrange it with the hotel in advance. Once you’re at the ryokan, getting out isn’t very easy either. Even if you want to take a taxi, you need to book it in advance — it’s not like calling a cab from the street. So I’d recommend planning your itinerary carefully before you arrive. While Todai-ji Temple, Nara Park, and Kasuga Taisha are technically just at the bottom of the mountain, they’re not within walking distance from the hotel, so you’ll still need transport. 🛌 2. Room Experience We booked the Japanese-style room with a private open-air bath. I did quite a bit of research before booking: Sites like *********** say the room is about 28 sqm (307 sq ft) But Ctrip listed it as 56 sqm, which was confusing After checking in, I think 28 sqm is probably just the indoor area, and 56 sqm includes the balcony, private onsen, and garden area. The room is traditional Japanese-style with tatami floors and a low table in the center. In the evening, while we were out having dinner, staff came in and set up our futon beds for the night — a really nice touch. This was our first time sleeping on Japanese futons. It was surprisingly comfortable, and the room temperature was perfect. If you're traveling with kids, this type of setup could be extra fun. 3. Onsen Experience We tried both the public onsen and the private one in our room: The public bath areas are located on the first and second floors, with men’s and women’s baths alternating daily. They include both indoor and outdoor hot spring pools. The water is hot — after about 10 minutes, we felt totally warm and relaxed. The private bath in the room was also very enjoyable. The garden had high fences and trees for privacy, and the tub was perfectly sized for two people. 🍱 4. Meals We booked a plan that included both dinner and breakfast. One important thing to note — you need to confirm your dinner time with the hotel before arrival, because if you arrive after 7 PM, you might miss dinner. Dinner is served in private dining rooms, which gave us a cozy and quiet atmosphere. The food was beautifully presented and very Japanese — including Wagyu beef and sukiyaki. Breakfast was also very traditional — grilled fish, rice, and various small dishes. Personally, I prefer something lighter for breakfast, and there was no coffee, bread, or buns included. If you want coffee, you can get it later in the lounge near the lobby.

服務和環境都沒得説，在有接駁車來回近鐵奈良站和JR站，很方便。也在若草山半山，酒店就能看到奈良夜景很美，早上還在門口路上遇見了小鹿。温泉人少舒服，晚上早上去都剛好沒什麼人。唯獨懷石料理早晚餐略微不夠豐富精美，要是可以出更精緻和豐富的料理付費升級選擇就更完美了。值得一説就是孩子可以選小童餐晚餐，這點非常贊！

酒店案內所在近鐵奈良5號出口，可以在這等酒店接駁車。退房後可以選擇讓接駁車送到東大寺附近，然後行李會在11點送到案內所，遊覽完東大寺，春日大社，奈良公園後到案內所取行李。 晚餐和早餐不錯
