Hotels With Pools in Nara Prefecture, Japan

Needless to say, it was clean. The bed was big enough to accommodate two adults and one child. The dinner was impressive. I experienced an unprecedented Japanese kaiseki cuisine. From the selection of ingredients to the presentation of the dishes, the chef's love for Japanese cuisine and his recognition of local ingredients were revealed. He was really rigorous and serious about it. Although my aesthetic taste for top Japanese food has not reached a high level of taste appreciation, I have to admit that the craftsmanship spirit was brought to the extreme by the hotel chef. The standard of breakfast was also very high, including the hotel, service, and private soup at night. If it hadn't rained and I couldn't see the starry sky, this trip to Ando would have been perfect. I hope I can see the brilliant Milky Way next time I go there.

I used Nara Health Land before entering the hotel. If you stay at a hotel, the usage fee became cheaper and it was a good deal. Also, the check-out time of the room was extended and I enjoyed it slowly. The room was properly futoned, and I rested immediately even if I was tired of playing, so I rested comfortably.

This hotel offers excellent value for money. The rooms are spacious, clean, and well-equipped, with attentive service from the lobby staff. The lobby manager who greeted us was a local from Nara. We initially communicated using translation software, but later discovered he also spoke Chinese; apparently, he had studied in Shanghai, China. This young man not only provided enthusiastic service but also recommended and booked seats at nearby izakayas for us. A big thumbs up! 👍

The service is in place and the open-air hot springs are also great. The disadvantage is that the sound insulation of the room is not good. Fortunately, the quality of the guests staying in is very high and basically does not affect it. The only thing that cannot accept is that there is no bathroom in the room. In addition to this, other full marks!

Beautiful location along the Kumano Koda trail. Excellent food and beautiful onsen on site. It is isolated (which is part of the charm) so be prepared to walk to town or take the bus if you want go to a market or lunch spot.
