Piazza Hotel Nara is probably one of the most impeccable hotels that's situated right at JR Nara station. It is a convenient starting point for exploring the shopping streets which lead up to Nara Park. The hotel has comprehensive facilities and amenities available to guests, including lovely buffet menus, and room was spacious and comfortable. Staff was earnest in understanding and communicating in English with English-speaking guests and provided excellent service. Definitely my top choice of accommodation in Nara.

The location was great because it is located in a shopping district with great access to food and other stores for buying souvenirs. It is also a short 5 min walk to the outskirts of Nara Park and some local museums. The breakfast tastes AMAZING with great service. They ask you when you want your breakfast and you show up with everything already prepared for you. Since its a ryokan, everything is very traditional so the service, the facilities, and everything else gives you a great experience of the Japanese culture

I had a wonderful experience at Hilo Hostel in Nara. The room was clean and fresh, and the shared bathroom was in excellent condition. The common area had everything needed to cook a meal, enjoy a reheated dish, and have a great time. But what really made our stay memorable was the owner, Mr. Hilo. He's an incredibly kind individual, always eager to assist tourists, up for a chat, and he welcomed us in a way that made us feel right at home. I wholeheartedly recommend this place to all future visitors to Nara.

Location was ideal: adjacent to the JR Nara station, yet isolated from the hustle bustle. A well-appointed grocery store was nearby as was a Starbucks located in a historic building. Hotel was similar to other 3-Star accommodations in Japan; compact yet full of modern amenities. Property was recently rebranded as a Spa, yet I didn’t take advantage of low-cost public bathing facility. Having a separate laundromat with microwave and beverage machine were added bonuses. Room had a work desk. WiFi was robust.

Great economical hotel. Booked last minute. Recommend the buffet breakfast which had both western and Japanese offerings. Hotel is located across from the JR Nara station which was great for access. 7-Eleven is just down the street, and restaurants nearby. Nara has a lot to see and do. Being right off the train, this could be a good choice for those looking for a hub to make day trips from. Washers and dryers are available for a small fee in the hotel (400¥).

The location is superb. Less than 5 min from Kintetsu Nara Station. Breakfgast, whether Western or Japanese is very good. Service and friendliness is absolutely tops. The inside Onsen warm bath9is an extra bonus I treas1ure very much. Rooms are "roomy" and in a quiet street. Wifi works fine everywhere. You can order dinner served "in your room" and this is a true experience. I have used this hotel many times over more than 10 years!

Guesthouse Oku was an excellent place to stay in Nara. It's a short walk to the train station, and close to many attractions in Nara. The host, Yoko made all of the guests feel right at home, even going out of her way to provide a good experience and socializing with other guests. The beds were big and comfortable, and I slept well in the shared bunk room. Overall an amazing experience staying here, a highlight of my trip to Japan!

Great hospitality, all the people in the staff were so friendly and open to have a nice conversation. The recommendations from the host were really helpful and the house it's an amazing traditional Japanese house. The location was second to none because it is close to both train stations and just a few steps from the central area of Nara. Also they rent bicycles for a very good price for hour or day, that saved me a lot of time.

This is a very excellent Hotel, with the most convenient location of any hotel that I have experienced in Japan, just one short block from the Jr Nara train station. From the train station, buses can take you anywhere that you would want to go in the Nara area, and to me, the Nora area is the best and most important sightseeing in Japan. The breakfast is excellent, as are the rooms. The staff is very friendly and helpful.

Everything! Hotel is right outside of the Nara Station, very close to the bus stops and tourists information center. There are a lot of restaurants nearby. Nara Park is 20 minutes by walk along the main shopping street. Very very convenient! Hotel has a nice natural hot spring and offers unlimited free drinks of Japanese sake, wine, beer, tea and coffee, unbelievable. Room is big, ckean and comfortable.

This has been my favorite stay so far in Japan! I am a solo traveler so I have gotten used to small spaces and crammed hotels, but Henn na Hotel Nara amazed my expectations :) The room layout was lovely and the hotel overall was very clean and spacious. The walls are thick so I wasn’t able to hear anyone around me or in the halls. It is also a less than 5 minute walk from the station.

Hotel Pagoda is right next to Nara Park, so getting an early start before the crazy crowds arrive or visiting a more peaceful park after they leave will greatly enhance your experience. The room is basic, but just got a recent refresh and remodel, so that makes it a great bargain for the price. It has a ridiculously huge bathtub and bathing room and includes bath salts.

I really enjoyed the traditional Japanese home and space. I also enjoyed the host, Jerome, showing me the garden and allowing me to pick vegetables with him to cook. The place is well stocked with needed amenities, and the host did a great job explaining how it all works. Next time I'm in Japan I will try to come back to Nara just to stay here!

The host is extremely kind and very helpful. He helped us plan our visits in Nara and told us about special events happening in the city. He also explained the history of the house. The room looks exactly like the pictures and is spotless. I would definitely recommend this place for everyone who wishes to experience a traditional Japanese stay.

Great Hostel right at the gate to all the places you want to see in Nara. Also just a really short walk to Kintetsu Nara Station. Rooms are quiet and beds are stable. Clean shower and toilet. Breakfast included and I really like it. One big toast with a topping of choice, delicious salad and a drink.

Stuff is super friendly and helpfull. Brekfast is served in the morning and has a choice between japanese and western food. Hotel is located near to JR Nara station, all restaurants and convinience stores. 10 min walk to Nara park through main street. Easy acess at night with your own entrance code.

Excellent location, right at the edge of the famous Nara Park. Comfortable and modern ryokan experience. Very friendly and helpful staff. Free flow of drinks including sake and wines in the lobby lounge. Enjoyed a nice multi-course Japanese dinner too. What more could one ask for?

Great traditional Japanese hotel. A little out of date but that is what tradition is about. Onsen was very nice. Both dinner and breakfast is great. The location is a little far for most Nara tourist sites but hotel provides shuttle from/to train station.

Shuttle bus. Took the shuttle bus. The driver was very friendly, courteous and comfortable. Staff. The staff all seemed to take pride in working for Nara Hotel. Excellent. Pajamas. Good pajamas, as I thought when I stayed there last year.

Located on the shopping street , Only about 3 minutes walk when out of Nara train station, very convenient. Hotel is very new , good facilities, very clean , the staff are very friendly. Walk to Nara garden only takes 7 minutes. Decent price
