NISHIMURA-TEI Hanare - Kitchen & Dining

Nishimura Residence is an old-fashioned Nara-machiya that has been standing on a piece of Nara-machi for more than 100 years. I was a “grandmother” for a long time when I was a child. In Nara Town, there is a pleasant despicable feeling that never changes. "I want to be filled with this pleasant contempt even for future generations." With that in mind, I took care of the empty Nishimura Residence. - Nishimura-Tei is originally a traditional Japanese house which has been here in Nara-machi town over 100 years, where my grandmother used to live in. My mother and I decided to renovate this house to preserve and pass down the virtue of good old days in Japan to the next generation as well as to show it to you.

这次和朋友们住进了关西机场附近带有日式花园的200年绝美町屋，简直太美了🥺！每个角落都充满日式风情，让人一见钟情。房东非常热心且周到，不仅送了我们夫人亲手制作的小饰品，晚上还特意拿来冰淇淋给我们吃。入住时的房间导览（room tour）中，Mino桑一边为我讲解，一边带着我参观了房间的各个地方，房屋处处布置都考虑得十分周全，让人感受到满满的贴心。最后退房的时候，还见到了可爱的Apollo🥰。最难得的是，这么美的空间和服务，价格却性价比极高！这是我第一次体验到如此完美的住宿，真想向全世界推荐这家民宿！我会再次入住的！ English: I stayed in a stunning 200-year-old machiya (traditional townhouse) with a Japanese garden near Kansai Airport with friends, and it was absolutely beautiful 🥺! Every corner was filled with Japanese charm, and I fell in love at first sight. The host was incredibly warm and attentive. Not only did they give us handcrafted accessories made by the hostess, but they also brought us ice cream in the evening. During the room tour upon check-in, Mr. Mino showed me around every part of the house while explaining details—every arrangement was thoughtfully considered, making me feel truly cared for. When checking out, I even got to meet the adorable Apollo 🥰.

明照Rating, 5 stars1 week ago

The Host was very welcoming and wrote a welcome sign at the door. Although it was very far and tiring to walk from JR Station, it was still comforting to see such a warm welcome.After ringing the doorbell, the Host ran all the way to greet us. She was a very polite and friendly woman: she helped us with our luggage, showed us around the house, and gave us a lot of good advice and tips.On the day of departure, the Host was also very welcoming and offered to take us to the JR Station by private car to take the train.Despite some language barriers (we are mainland Chinese, sometimes we don't understand English), we still talked a lot: anime, band...The environment is very beautiful, there are some flowers and plants in the small yard, the air is fresh, and there is a shrine next to it that can calm our hearts.Overall, the experience of this trip is very good and worth trying.The last sentence is to tell us Chinese people: it is very worth trying, trust us, Chinese people do not lie to Chinese people!

The quiet location is well connected , 5 minutes from the station and perfect to explore Nara and Kyoto being only 40 minutes away .The house has all the amenities you could dream of , a very nice touch is the free organic tea , mineral water and a luxury bonus is the filtered shower keeping you clean and fresh , super valueable in a hot japanese summer .Being worldtravelers themselves representing the best of a young japanese generation who is openminded it was great fun and fascinating to talk and on many occasions i was impressed with their knowledge and insights of traditional and modern Japan .Thankyou so much for your wonderful hospitality you are the ( secret ) Airbnb superstars one can only dream of .

DanielRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago

We really liked the accommodation. The highlights are the living room and bathroom. All in all, very clean, very well furnished, authentic and cosy. After Tokyo and Kyoto, we wanted some peace and quiet and decided in favour of this accommodation. You should definitely hire a bike and then explore the ancient ruins. It's wonderful on a bike. There are also very nice little cafés in the town. A Seven Eleven is very easy to reach on foot, so you can stock up on groceries. We had a very nice time out on our honeymoon.
