The location is good, there is a hot spring, and the scenery is pretty good. You can see the real-time crowding situation of hot springs on the TV, and you can adjust your trip. The service is also very good. I saw many Japanese locals when I took the elevator. More suitable for couples.

The hotel's location is about a ten-minute walk from Kintetsu Nara Station. You can walk along the east-facing commercial street, which is quite easy to find. The scenery right outside Saruzawa Pond is very good. The 65-square-meter family room I booked was very large and could directly see Kofukuji Temple. It was also very quiet at night. Private bathing costs 3,300 yen per 40 minutes, and there are not many people in public baths. There is a convenience store downstairs of the hotel, a Starbucks in five minutes, and you can walk to Todaiji Temple in about fifteen minutes. Overall, it is highly recommended. It is a Japanese-style hotel with good value for money.

The room is large, comfortable and charming. There was a misunderstanding when booking. We were not given a room with a view of Kofukuji Temple's five-story pagoda, but we were compensated with the use of the terrace lounge. Thumbs up for the flexible and heartwarming service! The reservation-only private soup is very good, and the "Taying No Soup" is worthy of its name.

This is the first hotel I left before my stay was over literally in decades - and as it was a no-frills booking, of course no money back. The location isn't half as good as people in the reviews make it out to be; it's a big mass hotel with a Japanese theme only; it's two stars at best (here three; the booking website gave four). The real problem was the rundown, smelly, not deeply cleaned room, and I get - and chose - the Japanese style, but that doesn't mean you won't have any English information at all, nor functionable electricity plugs, and normally if you need to lie down and rest, a futon bed will be made up for you. When arriving, the staff member showing me the room couldn't open the door for five minutes because of the lock, and that stayed symbolical. As the worst was the unfriendly (male) reception staff, the lowest level of hospitality ever, unprofessional to the max - I think they didn't try to accommodate me (literally and figuratively) as they thought if I'd leave they'd keep the money but could rerent the room, as there was some festival in town. Never looking for solutions, always thinking from convenience from their side - from useless waiting to always having better things to do to talk to guests to not even trying to help in any way to create a nice stay. It's rare in Japan that people with an unhospitable attitude work in hospitality. I'm usually neither grouchy nor unduly demanding, as my long track record of tripadvisor reviews shows - this was really a lowpoint of lodging in my life, and one of two of the worst places I ever stayed in East Asia. I was really glad to leave and be back on the train to Kyoto, and I recommend anyone to book a nice Ryokan or a good global-Western hotel in Nara instead.

Nice traditional Japanese inn. It was fun to stay in for our family of 3 for 1 night. The room we had overlooked the pagoda, which was lovely. The beds (futons on the floor) were actually very comfortable! They ask you to leave your room key at the front desk when you leave the hotel, so they made up our beds as we went to dinner. This hotel was very conveniently located! Right next to the park. The onsens were so relaxing. There are men & women indoor as well as men & women outdoor, plus a private onsen you can rent if you are a couple and want to be together. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Enjoyed Nara and this inn!
