Environment: The environment is beautiful, and the hotel toiletries are my favorite brand✪ω✪
Service: The service is very good, and the hotel also has a shuttle bus to Nara Station
The breakfast options are a little limited, but the rice is delicious!
This hotel is located on Mount Wakakusa in Nara. The location is a bit remote, but the scenery is really great, especially in the early morning, when you see the entire Nara city shrouded in mist, it is super beautiful.
The room is a traditional Japanese tatami room, which is quite comfortable but not too luxurious. The hot spring is open-air, so you can soak in it while looking at the mountain view, which is really relaxing. However, the hot spring pool is not big and may be a bit crowded if there are many people.
Dinner was kaiseki, and the portion was a bit too much for us.
Generally speaking, this place is suitable for people who want to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city and relax. Just be mentally prepared. This place is quite quiet and there are not many entertainment facilities. The focus is on relaxation.
A 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!

I liked that the bread at breakfast was individually wrapped!
It's nice that you can eat it in your room!
It would be even better if there were amenities and cotton swabs!
Arrived at the hotel near 12 o'clock in the evening, and the guy on duty came out to greet him. And introduced us to the hotel's facilities and services in detail. Very enthusiastic. The hotel facilities are not new, but very clean and tidy, and the service attitude is very good. The hotel spa is very comfortable. The environment layout is very cultural. The location is good, right next to the Double Pagoda, just a short walk to Nara Park! The bathroom space in the room is a bit cramped, but others are fine!
THE KAKU Exclusive suite & Residence is a recently renovated guest house in Nara, near Nara Station. This property offers access to a balcony, free private parking, and free Wifi. Guests can use an open-air bath.
Featuring a terrace and city views, the spacious guest house includes 3 bedrooms, 2 living rooms, flat-screen TV, an equipped kitchen, and 3 bathrooms with a bidet and a bath. Towels and bed linen are available in the guest house. For added privacy, the accommodation features a private entrance.
Iwafune Shrine is 12 miles from the guest house, while Hanazono Rugby Stadium is 14 miles from the property. Itami Airport is 34 miles away.
The location of the area is very good. It is next to Ruocao Park. In addition to self-check-in, it makes people feel that the head is big. The test of English is good. The price and service match. Health is also OK.
The three-person tatami room we stayed in was quite spacious and a good experience, but the pillows were too low. Breakfast is 500 yen per serving, and a toothbrush is 50 yen for an additional fee. There is a bus stop at the intersection on the left when you go out of the B&B. It is very convenient to take one or two stops to Nara Park for 220 yen. It takes about 25 minutes to walk, but it was too hot so I chose to take a car. The B&B rents bicycles for 500 yen per day (no matter what time you borrow them, you return them that night, not 24 hours a day), and 100 yen per hour. However, the road to Nara Park Road is a bit uphill. I couldn’t ride it, so I didn’t borrow it. The sun was too hot. It’s hard to ride a bike, but you can borrow one if it’s winter. This B&B is full of foreigners. I stayed there for 2 nights and didn’t meet a single Chinese person.

GGoh Li ShanNara Visitor Centre and Inn is charming place located right next to Sarasuwa pond. It is about 7 mins walk from the Kintetsu Nara station. Very near to Kofukuji temple. I stayed from 15-17 June 2023.
I felt warmly received by the staff on duty at the inn. Quite a lot of them are Mandarin and English speaking. I really appreciate one of the elderly gentleman’s staff warmth when he took the time to explain to me the attractions around the inn that I can visit, and he speaks Mandarin very well! I also appreciate the other staff’s eagerness to assist when I asked them questions about tours or to recommend places for breakfast.
A shoutout also to Yukina, who entertained me when I wanted to do the cosplay and Japanese calligraphy. I also really enjoyed the Japanese dance activity provided during my stay. I really enjoyed my stay here :)
I booked a Japanese style room, 8 tatami mats. Spacious for 1. Toiletries provided are sufficient. view from the room showed Kofukuji temple but was blocked by a tree. The only issue I had was that I was given the room at the end of the corridor. I personally preferred not to have a room at end of corridor for personal reasons, but the room was bright, airy and comfortable, and I was happy with it so did not request for a change.
KKinglumLoved the hotel!! It’s in the center of nara city
It’s 5 mins walk to the nara shopping area, 5mins walk to the nara park there is deer walking around the hotel in the morning
There is free morning city walk tour at 7:00-8:00 with local guide; the bicycle is free
The view of the pond is nice the service is great!! 5stars to everything
The room is spacious and the bed is comfortable
They have drink lounge for free use with unlimited snacks; fruit juice, sake, beer, wine from
15:00pm-2:00am
Really recommend everyone that travels to nara city to stay at this hotel!!
The only downside of this hotel is the breakfast only provides japanese style food ; grill fish and onigiri
The onigiri is huge, grill fish and miso soup is cold
I wish they can make the onigiri smaller so
We can taste more flavors
And hope that they can provide a bakery corner for people who doesn’t like to eat fish
Otherwise we loved the hotel and want to go
Back again!!
Ps: there is not parking space so we need to park at the coin parking costs us 2400¥ /night
CChaojijinshuwaVery nice hotel,but service is not OK. Maybe I should say”bad”.
We booked 1 room with 3 beds for 3 people, due to the booking system could input only 2 names, we have 1 person’s name missing.
The 2 ladies in the front desk of the hotel told that we need to pay extra JPN 3900 for the additional bed. Or, we could only have 2 beds for 3 people.
I said no, because it’s included in the room charge, we paid already. The ladies have no will to help us to solve the problem, but very interested in charging more.
Try to imagine, will 2 people book 3 beds room for 2 beds? why don’t people book a same type standard room to save some money?
Please contact with your agent to fix your booking system.
Finally a gentleman of the hotel helped to negotiate,and we could live here.
The room is really nice and clean. But the service is the worst I’ve ever seen in Japan.
GGuest UserLocation:2 minutes walking distance from the station to the hotel-perfect!The front entrance has a beautifully designed layout.
Cleanness: The hotel maintains an exceptional level of cleanliness, and a comfortable and hygienic environment.
Service: The front desk's English is excellent, much better than most I've encountered in Tokyo and Osaka. The instructions are clear and well-explained.
Facilities: Everything from the room to the dining options was exceptional, making my stay very enjoyable. The Japanese-style room made my stay cozy and relaxing.
Overall: I would give 10 out 10 and recommend it to every one.
SShin-Woei FannThe location of this hotel is pretty well, the Kintetsu Nara station is just across the street and the main station of the Nara buses is just in front of the door.
I would not suggest foreign people to go to the East shopping street nearby for food since there are many restaurant closed and hard to get good meals.
As the biggest chain hotel, this Tokoyo inn also has the convenient check in and out protocols and has staff can speak fluent English.
The only obvious problem is the noise can always come in through the closed window. I lived in 4th floor but could still hear clearly when people down in the back street talking during the late night,
GGuest UserNara Treasure Inn!! If you like the atmosphere of a Japanese family hotel and don't mind a small room, this one is really suitable for a solo traveler. The room is quieter and cleaner, with tatami mats, small but complete. The bath on the first floor is a private bath reserved by time slot, very hot, so more than 40 minutes of time slot is enough.
The front desk brother on duty at night is handsome and ok in English, and is very helpful. For example, he let me take the last minute of the remaining bathroom time slot (it was already ten minutes later when I arrived), take a bath and stroll around the small streets. It is also close to the commercial street (but everything is closed at night), and the surrounding environment and hotel atmosphere are great.
SSilenTangoThis stay was impreccable efficient and clean. The arrival at the peak was just a series of never ending surprises in architecture and attractions.
GGuest UserI made a reservation on the day.
I thought I had booked a non-smoking room, but was shown to a smoking room, and the smell of cigarettes was so strong that I asked to change it, and they gladly did. The front desk staff was kind.
Drinks are free from 6pm to 9pm.
Unfortunately, they had run out of the alcohol I wanted to drink.
There were only a few side dishes for breakfast, but the bread was delicious.
FFENGThe breakfast is not bad, the staff here are very polite, the service attitude is good, the room is a little bit outdated, but it is better than the price, the hardware is complete, you can take a bath and relax after a day of shopping, it is not bad!
XXIAOSAI ordered a double bed and made a loft. The overall space is not very large, but it is much more comfortable than domestic hotels. The hygiene and service are excellent. The location is very good. It is 7 minutes walk from Nara Park and 5 minutes from the subway entrance. A place to eat, drink and play for 5 minutes.
You can play in Nara for a few more days, the deer are very cute
