"Business Hotel Kiarakuso", located in the center of Tenri City, is a hidden accommodation facility that strongly retains the atmosphere of the Showa era. It might not satisfy those seeking modern facilities, but it's a perfect lodging spot for those wanting to feel nostalgia.
The greatest appeal of Kiarakuso is its unbelievably low price. With an accommodation rate of just 2,500 yen per adult and only 90 yen more for breakfast, it remains wallet-friendly. It’s also family-friendly, allowing children under 3 to stay for free.
The rooms mainly feature Japanese tatami style, suitable for family use in their spacious 12-tatami mat areas. Resting on the tatami offers a rare opportunity to experience traditional Japanese lodging.
While toilets and baths are generally shared, they can be used privately, offering a pleasant point. However, please note that the shared toilets are unisex and there is no elevator.
The breakfast, which requires advance booking, is surprisingly luxurious and well-received. With a menu centered on Japanese cuisine, you can recharge your energy from the morning.
Kiarakuso is recommended for those wanting to enjoy the Showa retro atmosphere and travelers prioritizing cost performance. As a base for Tenri City tourism and a special nostalgic lodging experience, a stay at Kiarakuso will make unforgettable memories.
