Guest UserI stayed at this hotel in 2019, and this was a return trip.
Two days before departure, I received an email from the hotel asking when we would arrive. They kindly informed us that there were no dinner options nearby after 5:00 PM. The staff at the hotel spoke English.
The hotel is located inside Nara Park, and the restrooms and showers are shared. There is a large common area, and the kitchen has a microwave and oven.
Mount Wakakusa is right next door, but unfortunately, it's still closed for the day.
It's very close to Todai-ji Temple and Kasuga Taisha Shrine.
There are many deer in the park; in the morning, when I opened the window, I could see deer on the grass below.
Check-out time is 10:00 AM the next morning. After check-out, you can leave your luggage at the hotel and pick it up when you leave.

honeeThis was my second time visiting Nara, and this time I traveled completely independently. The hotel's location is incredibly convenient. Coming from Kyoto on the Kintetsu Nara Line, you just walk straight down a bustling shopping and food street from the subway station, and the hotel is right at the end. It has a resort-style feel. There's no hot water dispenser in the room, so if you want hot water, you have to go downstairs, which is a bit inconvenient. I ended up bringing my own water every day. Bus route number 2 stops right outside and is a loop line, making it easy to get to all the attractions whenever you want.

Guest UserThe hotel environment is great, and the room is really spacious – it's rare to find such a large hotel room.
The location is quite close to Shin-Omiya, but there aren't many shops or restaurants around. Luckily, the hotel offers a convenient bus service to Kintetsu Nara Station, which is great for visiting the deer.
Downstairs, for some reason, there were a lot of cars speeding by, creating a bit of noise, but it wasn't too bothersome.
The hot spring bath was really comfortable; overall, the environment is truly fantastic~

The hotel is conveniently located near the station in a quiet area. You can walk to Nara Park and the nearest sights. The room had a teapot, tea, plastic glasses (which is uncomfortable), a fan, a lingerie dryer, bathrooms, lots of towels. But on the layer floor where the bed is very dusty. All the windows and curtains are in dust. Appended a photo.

Guest UserThe hotel is conveniently located near Nara Station, making access easy even on a rainy day. There are many restaurants and a supermarket around the station, and the hotel lobby also has an elegant restaurant.
Upon check-in, a welcome drink was offered. The hotel has a large number of rooms, so if you're assigned a room further away, it might be a bit of a walk. The room facilities looked a bit dated, but they were perfectly functional. The bathtub was quite large for a room of this size, and the toiletries were a collaboration with La Mer.
This stay included the breakfast buffet, which suited my taste well, featuring many local ingredients and some Western breakfast options.
Overall, the experience was good. Since it was off-season, the price was very reasonable, and I would consider staying here again.

eddiehappyA hotel full of history as it has been the chosen venue for important events in Nara. Many celebrities had stayed in this hotel including Albert Einstein. Tried the rice lager at the tea house which is very good tgough some may find it not strong enough. The vicinity is nice. It is within waljing distance of the famous Nara Park. The room is spacious. Shuttle bus service to Nara station is excellent. Very helpful staff. An enjoyable stay indeed!

littlelukelookThis hotel is super conveniently located right next to JR Nara Station, making transportation a breeze. There's a 7-Eleven and a large supermarket next to JR Nara Station, which is really handy. You can also catch a bus right outside the hotel to Nara Park.
The hotel offers many optional services, showing great thoughtfulness.
The onsen (hot spring) experience was generally good. They even provided sleep aids like different pillows and sleep supplements.
My room was quite spacious for one person, though the facilities were relatively simple. The keyless entry with a password lock on the door was great as it meant I didn't need to carry a room card. The hairdryer was a Refa, and it was fantastic!
The best part was definitely the free happy hour at the restaurant in the evenings. There was a wide variety of drinks available, and many guests brought food from the convenience store to enjoy with their drinks.

Hygiene: Yellow stains that had not been cleaned were found on the toilet
Environment: Halfway up Mount Wakakusa, isolated from the outside noise. The overall design style is modern Japanese. If you want to experience pure Japanese living, you should pay attention to the difference
Service: The service is still worthy of praise. The driver and front desk staff are very enthusiastic. They helped arrange the car to go up the mountain in the morning. It was very lucky to see 👀 deer🦌 on a rainy day
Food: Most of the food arranged is made from local ingredients in Nara. The ingredients are not gorgeous, the taste is OK, and it is more down-to-earth

Anonymous UserA hotel with a strong Japanese ambiance and excellent cleanliness. Guests are required to store their shoes upon entry. Bath towels, regular towels, and yukatas are replaced daily, and the water quality in the public bath is great. Located right next to JR Nara Station, it's very convenient for day trips to surrounding cities, though rooms facing the railway can be quite noisy. The hotel is within walking distance of various attractions, and the breakfast is exceptionally bountiful.

We stayed at the hotel for one night and regretted not staying for two.
The journey from the station was an hour-long bus ride along winding roads, so if you're traveling with a child, pack a bag beforehand, as it can cause motion sickness. From the bus stop to the hotel, it's a 10-15-minute walk (at a leisurely pace). You'll see your name on the sign at the entrance. The hotel is modern, but it creaks when you walk, which is actually a plus. The room is traditionally furnished with two rooms, and they offer complimentary tea. There are plenty of closets, though I couldn't figure out how to turn off one light.
I also recommend booking the room with a traditional Japanese dinner and breakfast. Everything is delicious and fresh.
There's a small local brewery next to the hotel, which is a nice place to stop in after the onsen in a yukata.
