Edo-period townscape and natural Onsen, a comfortable rest

Escape the hustle and bustle of the city and immerse yourself in the Edo-period townscape near Gojo Shinmachi at our Hotel. The natural Onsen "Kongou no Yu," drawn from 1300 meters underground, offers not only excellent water quality but also a variety of bathing facilities, including open-air baths, saunas, and jet baths, to help you unwind from daily fatigue. We provide a range of Room options, from single Western-style Rooms to 16-tatami mat Japanese-style Rooms, catering to both business and leisure travelers. For dinner, enjoy a selection of meals ranging from affordable kaiseki cuisine to authentic full-course kaiseki, tailored to suit your budget.

  • I love the meals here, so whenever I go to Nara, I always choose the Riverside Hotel. The food is delicious every time. The bath is also a pleasant Onsen. It’s an Onsen loved by locals. This time, the guest room was a very clean Room. Please be sure to visit.

  • I stayed here after sightseeing at Takatori Castle.I thought the Facility was average, but the Room I stayed in had been renovated. As soon as I entered, it smelled musty, and I wanted to open a window, but it wouldn’t open no matter what.For the Onsen, I went to a neighboring Onsen Facility; it was just a standard day-use Onsen.Dinner was a kaiseki course, and I was impressed that they served food like this for the price. It lived up to the Reviews. Breakfast was also excellent—the local dashimaki tamago (rolled omelet) was delicious. There aren’t many Hotels in this area so there weren’t many options, but I think this is a good Accommodation.If I have the chance to visit again, I’d like to stay here again.
