Adorable ryokan, beautifully renovated from a Meiji period sake brewery. We emailed the hotel through their website before our arrival and they were very responsive and accommodating with our questions and requests. Check-in was quick and painless (Google translate helped!) and the path to the room goes through a lovely little garden. The room itself was gorgeous, clean, and spacious. We loved the design and the generous amenities provided (all drinks in fridge included). The highlight was definitely the hinoki cypress bathtub—such a relaxing soak! (For reference, we stayed in Room 107 Hinoe, a “standard triple room” on booking.com and a “VMG Grand” room on the hotel’s website. Since the rooms all looked so different from each other in the pictures, we emailed the hotel to confirm availability for the room we wanted.) The service was fantastic as well; the front desk staff was very helpful and tried to make a reservation for us when we asked, and also called a store to inquire about opening hours at our request. Breakfast was amazing too, both the food and the service. All interactions were warm and friendly. The hotel also held onto our luggage for us after checkout while we went to explore Nara. Well located on a quiet street but a short walk to Nara Park, Todaiji, and many other Nara attractions. We also got to see deer on the street next to the hotel at night! Tl;dr: We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would return to Nara just to stay at this hotel again.
Not a problem for us, but something to note: the path to our room was not possible to wheel a suitcase over at some points.

Staff was extremely helpful and nice. We mentioned what we had planned to do and staff automatically provided a map and marked the areas of interest. The room decor was really nice. We enjoyed the amenities offered. We didn't know at the time, but the onsite restaurant is a Michelin star restaurant which we enjoyed very much as well.
I think this is room dependent but the room we had was closed to another room so at times you can hear other people moving around. With that said, I recognize that the facility was originally a sake warehouse (if I recall correctly) and was converted into a hotel so noise barriers may not be readily available. However, it did not diminish our enjoyment during our stay.

A mixed review: I chose this hotel for the look, and historical nature, with its wooden beams. The large bedroom was stunning and the bathroom great. The reserved dinner, with saké pairing was of a 3 star Michelin !! It was a Japanese take on French cuisine and fabulous. The staff was kind and helpful, spoke some good English too.
Because it's an old building, the bedroom had single pane windows, rattling in the wind and rain and letting the traffic noise from a busy main road nearby - not good at the price per night... If you choose the breakfast option, you will be served a totally Japanese array of fish, pickles and soups. We opted for a western option on the last day, which they prepared specifically,and it was a little disappointing.

The staff , the vibe , the decor . One find peace and comfort, like an oasis in the city. It was a beautiful and wonderful surprise to see deers coming to the hotel gardens. They walked around in the garden and ate some of the flowers and grass in the morning. We were able to get so close to them and it felt so peaceful inside the hotel. The hotel was renovated from a century-old sake production place, it has its charm and traditional vibe in modern comfort that the other 4 stars hotels can't compare. If our time and budget allow, I would definitely go back again in Nara.
Nothing . Can’t find stuff to criticize

The beautiful ryokan with a lot of space and traditional design. The bathroom is traditional wood with smart technology; smart toilet is the best we experienced in Japan. All drinks in mini bar are included in the room rate. Beds were comfortable but not soft. Comfortable pyjamas are provided. Staff is super friendly, but knowns very little English. The location is perfect within walking distance to all major shrines and temples. Breakfast and dinner are delicious, hotel restaurant also offers a fantastic sake selection.
The garden could have been better maintained.

The staff were all very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was very good and very well served and plated.
The garden outside our rooms was disappointing and seemed neglected. The path to our rooms made it impossible to wheel our heavier bags. The step off the room to the patio was quite steep and difficult to access. I realize that the building is quite old. I am very tall as are both of my sons and we all hit our heads more than once.

We got the only room on the first floor. It was huge and magnificent with a view of a garden. Could not have been more lovely. Try to have dinner there at least one night. The preparation and selection was Michelin worthy along with the sake pairing. Breakfast was delicious with many varied flavors.
The dining room was cold. My wife was provided with a blanket during dinner.

The room rate included a sumptuous Japanese breakfast and a Japanese-French fusion 7 course dinner. It was raining heavily when we arrived, such a dinner was particularly memorable and delicious. The staff was meticulous, and an elegant lady even carried our heavy bags up a steep stair to our room without being noticed. Hospitality at its best!
The reception area at the entrance is small and can be more tidy. The sake cocktail preparation area could be rearranged in a better presentation and location. There are two kinds of slippers: one pair to be used from the public area to the room, and another pair to be used within the room. We got all confused! The colour of the carpet inside the room might give the feeling that it was not clean although we trusted that it was clean.

The attention to detail of the staff was exceptional. Staying in such a lovely traditional apartment with modern amenities was a very enjoyable experience. The breakfast, traditional Japanese in style, was tasty. The location was good, only a ten minute walk to stations and most main attractions. Would highly recommend it if you want to stay somewhere special.
Nothing.

The pictures didn't do the place justice. this was one of the nicest hotel experiences I've had in my many years of travel. Immaculate service! Wonderful breakfast! I would honestly come back to Nara just to stay here again. Do yourself a favor and make a dinner reservation for the restaurant when you book as they fill up quickly.
