Staying at this hotel was a dream come true. The breathtaking views of Nara city from my room overlooking Sakura trees were simply mesmerizing. The service at Mikasa was beyond fantastic, and the location, nestled in the mountains near Nara Park, added a peaceful and serene atmosphere to my stay. The dining experience was a mix of wonderful culinary delights and some room for improvement. Overall, a remarkable experience with a few minor hiccups.
