Visit Nara

GOSE SENTO HOTEL is a sustainable accommodation spread through the Edo-period merchant town of Gose, about halfway between Nara City and the southern mountains of Yoshino. It's a convenient location for exploring southern Nara and the Katsuragi mountains. The accommodations are in two restored buildings: Rita Goshomachi, a former fountain pen shop, and Yado Charinko, a former bicycle store that has been converted to cyclist-friendly accommodations. A former tobacco shop nearby is now a stylish casual restaurant space, Yoshokuya Kemuri. All guests are free to use the baths and sauna at Gosho Takarayu, a sento (public bathhouse) that serves as a community meeting place. Explore the town and experience its charming atmosphere. The accommodations and bathhouse have been restored to help rejuvenate the local community and offer visitors the chance to slow down, and experience an authentic way of life that we have almost forgotten.
