Hotel was about 2 mins walk from the entrance of Nara park n the shopping district. Very good location. You could either walk 1.3km to the hotel from the JR station, or take a taxi which would cost around 1200yen. About 10 mins walk from the metro station. I stayed for 2 nights with breakfast and dinner inclusive. The Ryokan did take note n served us a different menu each day. There was also a small indoor n outdoor onsen in the Ryokan. The food was superb.

Nice hotel with a nice view on the pagoda of Nara Park (which however is under renovation at the moment). The hotel offers private baths (reservation required) but they are not hot springs bath. The localisation was perfect (walking distance to Nara Park) and the personnel was nice and very helpful. We had a great stay. Only downside is that the hotel doesn't offer western beds (only Japanese futons).

The service is very good and the food is rich. It is located next to Kofuku-ji Temple, and there are many Japanese living there. It is a good place to experience traditional Japanese hotels and restaurants. The open-air bath is also good, open until 11 o'clock in the evening, and there is free ice cream on the first floor.

A typical Japanese inn, 5 minutes from Kintetsu Station and 10 minutes from Todaiji Temple. There is a lake in front of the hotel, which is pleasing to the eye. The room is also quite spacious. It's a pity that the viewing terrace is not open in winter. The Yakushi Pagoda is under renovation recently, which means that the characteristic landscape is not used, which is a pity. The service staff are very enthusiastic, and reservations must be made in advance for dining in the hotel.

The room is very big and Japanese style. My kids like it very much since it's their first time staying in this kind of room. The bathroom is super clean. It's very comfortable to live in. It's very close to Kofuku-ji Temple and Nara Park. The location is very convenient.
