Grand Mercure Nara Kashihara Reviews

Lounge have drink

Overall, the hotel is good to very good. It takes only about 5 minutes to walk to the nearest station. The surrounding area is not crowded. There is a Lawson convenience store about a 10–15 minute walk away. However, it might take a bit of time to get into Nara city.

I book this hotel assuming its nara, but its actually almost an hour train from nara deer park and temple. It cost almost 1000 yen using train just to arrive to this hotel. But the hotel provide amazing service which include free flow alcohol from 21-23pm and also huge onsen bath. I choose tatami room for the experience but not really to my liking because the room looks very old especially the bathroom.

amazing hotel with excellent service

We stayed in a traditional tatami style hotel room. Very enjoyable, hot spring included, short distance to the world heritage shire

The room was big by Japanese hotel standards but the furnishings and panels were rather dated. They have a nice happy hour from 3-6pm with drinks and snacks

Facility a bit old but overall is acceptable.

Catpark can not park hiace grab coz park at hotel entrance and 1000 per day

VERY GOOD I LIKE THIS HOTEL VERY MUCH BECAUSE THERE IS A HOT SPRING INSIDE THE HOTEL

Breakfast is very nice.

Big and clean hotel with great service, nice breakfast choices

I booked a breakfast-included plan with the aim of relaxing. The breakfast was delicious, with a wide variety of options, and I was very satisfied. The hot springs had a calming atmosphere, allowing me to truly relax, which was wonderful. I was also pleased to find ReFa showerheads and hair dryers provided for women. In the bath lounge, in addition to a water dispenser, fruit vinegar and, depending on the time of day, amazake (sweet rice wine) were available, which was an unexpected and delightful service. I was able to spend my time comfortably at the hotel from check-in to check-out, and I would definitely like to stay there again.

The lounge had a great view, a wide selection of drinks, and I enjoyed them along with some snacks. The large public bath also had fruit vinegar and amazake (sweet rice wine), which I enjoyed. The location is excellent, being close to the station. The breakfast buffet had a wide variety of dishes, and I was very satisfied.

It's conveniently located near the station. The parking lot isn't very large, but it's not cramped either. However, if you arrive late, you might not be able to find a spot. There's a large public bath in the basement, and each room comes with a yukata and slippers. You can wear them anywhere in the hotel, so I was able to wash up and move around comfortably. However, there are no towels in the bath, so you have to bring them from your room. At first, I thought the price was a bit high for a place in the countryside, but with the free hot springs and free drinks on the first floor until 11 PM, I soon stopped thinking it was too expensive. The bathrooms are about the same size as typical Japanese hotels, and there's an overnight parking fee of 500 yen. I think I'd stay here again if I ever come back to this area.
