"All good. At the end of Nara Station. Specifically put a sign, to drink pipe water. Normal space, need to close the bag after open, otherwise it blocks walkway. Sometimes put on chair, to open my bag. Give extension cord! Very good! Because the plug is behind the TV, can't reach. Wooden window as curtains to block sunlight, but, it leaks in. Cannot have a dark room to sleep during day times. But the wooden window looks cool."

"This 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."

"The location seems a bit out of the way, but it's actually very close to Nara Park; you can easily spot deer just by stepping outside. The room was clean and spacious, but there was no staff to assist with check-in or check-out. After settling in, it was quite nice. The kids loved the Japanese tatami mats. It also has a microwave and induction cooker, suitable for short stays. The small courtyard outside is well-designed, though small. Free parking is also available. The only downside is the lack of breakfast; you have to prepare your own. These minor flaws don't detract from the overall experience; I would stay here again next time."

"The room was comfortable and clean. However, the first room I was given faced the street and was a bit noisy, which affected my sleep. After two nights, I asked the front desk staff to switch rooms. The staff member was very helpful and showed me the new room, for which I'm very grateful. I slept very well on the last night. The hotel is super close to Nara Station, making transportation incredibly convenient. I even walked to Nara Park."

"The location of this hotel is amazing. It's within 15 minutes walk from Nara Park as well as several streets full of shops and restaurants. It's also only 5 minutes from the nara-kinetetsu station. The staff were incredibly friendly and the coffee shop is a nice place to sit. The only real negative was the fact that they use very tiny pillows - but they gave me an extra one when I asked and that pretty much solved the issue. Would stay here again if I returned to Nara."

Just a 1-minute walk from Kintetsu Nara Station without getting wet in the rain. Nara Park and Todai-ji Temple’s Great Buddha Hall are also within walking distance. Located inside a covered shopping arcade, guests can enjoy restaurants and souvenir shops comfortably without worrying about the weather. The property also features a large public bath, as well as tatami flooring and futon bedding, allowing you to relax while experiencing the charm of traditional Japan.

"The location is right in the shopping street and also at the Kintetsu exit, it is only 15 minutes to go to the park. The staff is warm and courteous, the hot springs are fine but quiet enough. The hotel is old but tidy, there is no daily necessities except old towels, including a blow dryer in the hot spring area, and there is nothing towels lock. Of course, this price can't be too much, remember this is a hotel. I was impressed by the invincible location and courteous staff, I can't say whether I like it or not."

First of all, the service staff is warm and thoughtful, and the attitude is amiable! Tell the precautions, the hotel is clean and hygienic, and the quilt is covered by yourself. The bathroom in the bath is particularly clean. Every guest is very conscious. Try to control yourself and not disturb others. It is really great!

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.

My trip to Japan was so enjoyable largely because of this hotel! I was initially worried about the two Superhotels, but this one was fantastic! It's right across from the JR station, and the staff at the front desk all speak Chinese, and I heard they also speak Korean, Japanese, and English—amazing! Communication was completely seamless. During check-in, they explained everything in detail, including pillows, pajamas, combs, shampoo, and more! The breakfast was delicious and very Japanese, and I noticed many Japanese people choose to stay here, which was really great. Nara Park is also within walking distance. Overall, I had a wonderful time. I've already recommended it to everyone I know, and I'll definitely choose this hotel again next time I'm in Kansai—it's even cheaper than others! The rooms are small, but that seems to be a common problem with Japanese hotels.

Cannot speak highly enough of the friendly staff, the amazing breakfast and dinners, the wonderful public bath with cherry blossoms on full display outside. The room was large and comfortable with a seating area over looking the mountains. If I could rate them 10 out of 5 I would. The location was excellent and close to the train, buses and walking paths to the top of Mt Yoshino. We felt very lucky to have stayed here. It was the highlight of our trip to Japan.

This hotel is exactly something what we expected to experience with a Japanese style room and hot spring. We chose Japanese style room which was spacious enough for 3 guests. Hotel fee already included Japanese dinner served inside room and breakfast (Japanese or American) served in their restaurant. Hot spring is available from 4pm-11pm, however, no morning session is available which a bit disappointed us. Hot spring area is not big, it is more enjoyable when there are only 2-3 guest in the pool. Hotel location is good, only about 6 mins walk from Kintetsu Nara station. The only bad thing was NO elevator or escalator from the station up to ground floor exit. All other main tourist attractions are within walkable distance.
