The best place ever on my trip. You have balcony which overlooks the tower. Great staff, very good english. You have a whole store in the basement. If you ever go to Japan, you have to stay in traditional Japanese room for full immersion.

Nara has a lot going on.

Nara has a lot going on. Lots of wonderful food, decent shopping and the Park is huge! There is way more to the park that is initially revealed in tourism blogs. We really loved early morning walks thought the park without the crowds. We spent 3 days there, and felt like it was perfect.

Nara is my favorite place in Japan.

Nara is my favorite place in Japan. It has really beautiful natural environment, lovely deer that you can easily see while walking on the street, and very friendly people. It has played a very important role in Japanese history (e.g. Horyuji, Toshodaija, etc. are important world heritage sites), but it does not have that many visitors as Kyoto, which makes traveling in Nara a lot more pleasant than travelling in Kyoto. I highly recommend people to travel to southern part of Nara Prefecture (e.g. Horyuji, Asuka-dera, Tsubosaka-dera, Oka-dera, etc.).

I didn’t check closing times of temples and it was hard to determine the last buses back from further out locations. I did end up having a nice evening walk along a riverside to find a train station to come back into town.

Nara is beautiful.

Nara is beautiful. There are two UNESCO world heritage sites and lots of deer. If you are afraid of animals, I don't recommend it. The deer will follow you if you have food and they may try to take it from you if you hesitate or don't gently push them away. They are not, as a general rule, aggressive. A lot of tourists freak out and just throw their crackers. Don't do that. Stay calm. The deer don't want to hurt you, they just want a snack. They don't care for being pet either. Just snap your crackers (200 yen sold at different stands) into 3-4 pieces, hold out your hand flat and let them take it from you. Be aware of how many are around you. They will surround and nibble your clothing. I found this hilarious. I grew up with cows and they will pretty much do the same thing. Use your voice and be gentle. The one day bus pass is really useful. I wish I had more time in Nara.

Nara Koen (park) is a beautiful place.

Nara Koen (park) is a beautiful place. Todaiji and Kasuga Kaisha is located nearby. The Sarusawa Ike (pond) behind the Nara Park leads to shopping place. One can spend whole day around Nara. - Beware of the deer, they might get a bit aggressive when offering food. - It gets crowded during on-season.

I love the deer and the ambiance of Nara.

I love the deer and the ambiance of Nara. Arrive early and expect crowds. As with anything else, the further you walk from the main area, you can stumble across more peaceful and secluded places. I would avoid Nara on the weekend, if possible. Deer can be friendly (and bow politely to ask for a treat) or aggressive (grabbing items out of your bag, biting your clothing, or being over-zealous). Keep your crackers high or out of sight and feel free to walk away from deer that are not vibing.

- Room was big and spacious for a solo traveller. - Staff spoke great English and gave great recommendations in attractions and restaurants. - The free breakfast was delicious - also very appetising and filling! - Location was strategic as Kintetsu-Nara Station, F&B and convenient stores, and Nara Park were all within walking distance. - Hotel Wi-Fi was strong. - Didn't expect a coin laundry and dryer in the hotel. Got to clean my clothes at an affordable price. - Vending machine in the hotel is a plus!

This is a nice small hotel in a good location midway between the 2 railway stations and within approx 5-10 minutes from the newer section of the town leading to Nara Park The hotel staff were all very friendly and helpful. Our room was of an excellent size and while the decor was a little dated it was generally well appointed with the bathroom in particular of an excellent standard with lovely shower gels,shampoos etc. There was also a small bar as well as free coffee and tea in the reception area

The location of the accommodation was perfect for our one night stay, close to all the main attractions of Nara. The hotel is beautiful and we were very happy with our room. The staff were exceptional; polite, helpful and friendly. They lent us umbrellas when we needed it, kept our bags for us after check-out and even ordered us a taxi to the station. We did not use the restaurant / bar, but it looked like a lovely facility with a deck overlooking the deer park.

The hotel is perfectly located by the station and not more than 30 minutes away from Nara's main cultural attractions like The great Buddha or its famous park full of dears. The staff was very helpful and caring, and they write us a note to celebrate our Honeymoon. The Onsen was perfect and the breakfast one of the best we had throughout our trip tonJapan. We totally recommend the hotel.
