A long-established hotel located 2 minutes walk from Kintetsu Nara Station. Booked a standard twin. Great access to sightseeing and spacious rooms.Although I arrived late and got up early, I was impressed by how they took the time to use the public bath.The public bath with open-air bath was reserved for private use.Breakfast is the Japanese set meal. Tea porridge is said to be a local dish, and the perfect accompaniment to white rice permeates your morning body. Although rustic and simple, the boiled tofu, dried fish, natto from Nara, and pickles were all delicious. The staff are also unpretentious and warm-hearted people. There are many people like that in Nara Prefecture☺Repeat confirmed!

We had a Japanese style room. The onzen bath was the best we had in Japan. It has 2 indoor and one outdoor pool. The hotel is very quiet, located next to the railway station and to Nara Park with its deer and temples.

A hotel located right near Kintetsu Nara Station.It is attractive that there are many places within walking distance, such as Nara Park, Todaiji Temple, Gangoji Temple, and the five-storied pagoda.Taxis are hard to come by, and even using an app takes time, so choosing a place to stay is a high priority.Because the building is old, many of the facilities are outdated.However, it feels clean and seems to be well maintained.It's nice to have local food for food. The taste is normal.The staff will treat you courteously.I surprisingly ended up buying something at the souvenir corner.
