Spa Hotels in Nara City

should consider this the best hotel around in nara town. nice environment, and nice service. the breakfsst varieties could have been a little bit more, and that would be wonderful.

We went by car! There was a parking lot where guests could park for free. The location was also great, as it was only about a 15-minute walk to Todaiji Temple. We booked a room with dinner and breakfast included, and both were delicious and very satisfying (;;) They provided petit cakes in the evening, which we enjoyed eating while doodling in our memory notebook! They even have a hot spring! The inside of the hotel was very clean, and everything was great, so we were very satisfied! If I come to Nara again, I'd love to stay here!

I stayed at this hotel in 2019, and this was a return trip. Two days before departure, I received an email from the hotel asking when we would arrive. They kindly informed us that there were no dinner options nearby after 5:00 PM. The staff at the hotel spoke English. The hotel is located inside Nara Park, and the restrooms and showers are shared. There is a large common area, and the kitchen has a microwave and oven. Mount Wakakusa is right next door, but unfortunately, it's still closed for the day. It's very close to Todai-ji Temple and Kasuga Taisha Shrine. There are many deer in the park; in the morning, when I opened the window, I could see deer on the grass below. Check-out time is 10:00 AM the next morning. After check-out, you can leave your luggage at the hotel and pick it up when you leave.

Checking in can take a while, as the butler asks quite a few detailed questions and then gives a thorough introduction to the building and its various areas. Some staff members have good English, others not so much, which can sometimes make understanding difficult, but it doesn't significantly impact the overall experience. The breakfast is exquisite. During the tail end of the Golden Week holiday, we had to queue for a table. The Japanese grilled fish was delicious, but other dishes were just okay. The Western options were decent and quite plentiful. The room was clean and tidy, and on our last day, we even saw deer chasing and playing in the courtyard. The hotel has a distinct resort vibe, and Kengo Kuma's design features many highlights. It's a tranquil oasis in a bustling area, and the courtyard is beautifully maintained. Most guests seemed to be older, well-established families, with fewer young people. (As a 'workhorse' who needed to get some work done in the evening, I found there were no power outlets near the desk for my laptop, which really drove home the point that everyone else was truly here to relax and enjoy their vacation). Overall, I had a very pleasant and comfortable holiday. It's a beautiful hotel and definitely worth experiencing.

The food was delicious, the room was lovely, and the hot springs were wonderful. You have to walk through a courtyard to get to the dining area, which is very pleasant on a sunny day. They also offer a short car ride to and from the restaurant. The food was surprisingly delicious for a traditional Japanese inn. The only things I didn't need were the expensive smoothie and drinking yogurt that you order for an extra charge at breakfast. Other than that, the service was excellent, and I was very satisfied. I would like to visit again.

The hotel is conveniently located near Nara Station, making access easy even on a rainy day. There are many restaurants and a supermarket around the station, and the hotel lobby also has an elegant restaurant. Upon check-in, a welcome drink was offered. The hotel has a large number of rooms, so if you're assigned a room further away, it might be a bit of a walk. The room facilities looked a bit dated, but they were perfectly functional. The bathtub was quite large for a room of this size, and the toiletries were a collaboration with La Mer. This stay included the breakfast buffet, which suited my taste well, featuring many local ingredients and some Western breakfast options. Overall, the experience was good. Since it was off-season, the price was very reasonable, and I would consider staying here again.

Our room has 4 futon beds (tatami) which is comfortable to sleep in. The hotel has liquor like sake, coffee, soda water and snacks as welcome drinks for the guests which is a plus point. Distance from JR and Kintetsu train station is within 10min walking distance. On our way to the hotel we already saw some deers which is a nice surprise to us as we are yet to be near to the Nara Park.

Hotel is a station away from Nara center. We took bus or train. About 9 min away from station. Hotel has specious and beautiful Lobby, Rooms are very simple. Of course clean and neat as usually in Japan.

The hotel is within walking distance of Kintetsu Yamato-Saidaiji Station and is also in a great location, just 3-4 minutes from Heijo Ruins Park. It's also perfectly located for soaking in hot springs, which are extremely rare in Nara City. The downside is that the facilities are old, and there are issues with facility management and maintenance, such as room and bathroom locks not locking in some places. Also, the hand washing areas in the rooms are not flush with the rooms, making them difficult to use. We strongly urge the hotel management to ensure that the age of the facilities does not become apparent.

First of all, the location is a long distance from JR and the electric rail Nara Station. The facade is good. The waiter's attitude is also very good. There are free drinks and books on the first floor for free. But the hotel hardware facilities can be said to be not suitable as a hotel, the bed, bathroom, etc. are too old, the TV is not as big as the laptop, and it is a big circle smaller than the small refrigerator. The sewer is also blocked, and the smell of the sewer is coming to the door. I should not choose this hotel again. It is not a good experience. Of course, the service is very good, but the facilities are really bad.
