Wakasa Annex

Really liked it.

This was my first time staying here. My initial reason for choosing this hotel was that it's nearby but I haven't been there often, and I wanted to treat myself to a room with a private open-air bath. The staff were all incredibly polite and attentive, and the food was delicious, with meticulous attention to detail evident throughout. However, due to a sudden cold snap, I had to forgo the open-air bath and instead enjoyed the hot spring on the top floor. I would recommend this hotel.

The hotel is a little far from the JR station and requires a bus, but it is within walking distance to Kintetsu Nara Station. The location is right next to Todaiji Temple, and it is very convenient to Nara Park and other attractions. The hotel staff had a first-class service attitude, were very attentive, spoke fluent English, and patiently explained the hotel facilities and services. There are also small gifts for guests who come to stay here. I won’t spoil the contents of the gifts for now, but they are really heartwarming. In terms of room facilities, the open-air bath is very comfortable. Taking a bath in the zero-degree weather outside is a great pleasure in life. The room was clean and spacious. The 1.5-meter mattress was very comfortable. I slept very well and cleared away the tiredness of the journey. In terms of food, both dinner and breakfast are Japanese cuisine, which is very exquisite, with fresh ingredients and a good dining experience.  The experience of this stay was very good and I highly recommend it.

The hotel is a bit far from the subway station. It will be difficult to drag suitcases because there are slopes. I stayed in room 303 with an open-air hot spring. The environment of the room was quite good, but there was a wooden false ceiling above the hot spring pool, but birds often stayed there. If they pooped, they just fell into the hot spring... I saw bird droppings in the bathtub. In the end, I didn’t use the hot spring. But the waiter's service was very attentive, which gives me full marks. Each table can also order music during the meal, which is a surprise.

Regardless of the location, environment, facilities, and services, I think everything is close to perfect. I will definitely come again! Visit the **-like Nara deer again😂

Nice environment and clean rooms.

非常推薦的酒店，一定要訂含餐的套餐，體驗感拉滿。 酒店是一棟日式的小樓，準確來説是民宿，大概10來個房間吧，每個房間面積和設施不太相同。 前台已經很有特色了，隨處可見一些日式的小擺設，雜而不亂。公共區有免費的小點心和好吃的菠蘿冰 房間算大的，晚上會有工作人員提前鋪好榻榻米。獨立的馬桶間和洗漱間設計很精巧。陽台有一個大木桶可以泡澡，樓上還有公共湯池 早晚餐都是典型的日式風味，晚餐的懷石料理性價比超高，每道餐食都擺盤精緻，壽司魚生烤肉都包含其中，絕對可以吃飽吃好 略有不足的地方一是入住時間稍有點晚，二是室內空調風沒法兒調太小。但整體可以包容。
