    I have been to this hotel before and it was my best hotel in the world and it did not meet my expectations from my previous experience.

    We were not advised until we registered that the breakfast buffet was not available, the hôtel was under renovation and the room for 3 people was for parents with a child but not an adult.

    The bathroom is small, hard to turn around when n it.

    Staff were very nice and helpful. Bed had a mattress topper, enough to absorb pressure from hips and shoulders. A desk wide enough for a laptop and all the other stuff that needs a place such as water bottles, phone charging g etc. Right next to train and bus station and easy to walk to many destinations. Decent onsen (spa) and a good breakfast. And again, the front desk staff were super nice and helped me book a chiropractic massage appointment.

    The toilet is small and the staff may have difficulties understanding English but they tried hard which is the most important thing. But other than that, there are no adverse comments. It is a little noisy too in view that it is near a train station and you can almost hear the train moving in the early morning.

    The location is exactly just beside Nara train station which was ideal. There is an onsen in the hotel itself with free coffee in the morning and bar service in the evening. You have access to different kind of pillows and there is laundry services with small fee of 200 yen. There are lots of shop nearby and it is only a 5 to 10 minutes walk away from the main area of Nara. There is also a nearby Anytime Fitness if anyone wants to gym too.

    Small thing that could be improved: The bathroom door’s design. I think my room’s door (941) was a little deformed as it could not be closed properly at the bottom. It caused an annoying sound to be emitted when the door was not closed in a certain way.

    Staff. The use of a code instead of key or card. Access to spa.

    Entrance is a bit off-putting as it’s not so easy to see around the corner on the ground floor of a block. It’s a lift to the reception area and not very smart. Reception can seem a little cramped if many guests arrive at once.

    Friendly and helpful staff, free evening drinks including Japanese spirits, machine dispensed sodas, tea, coffee, etc. Free public baths and toiletries/amenities. Good breakfast selection. Right outside the station.

    Breakfast was good but as it was hyped so much, I expected more. That said for about ¥1000 it is decent value. As you may from other Japanese hotels, they are very strict when it comes to operating hours (for everything).

    The location is great just next to the railway. They have welcome bar every day, so if you once just want to bring some dinner “home” you can eat there and enjoy some free drinks. The onsen is decent but rather small.

    Super compact rooms, uncomfortable bed, traditional Japanese pillows. Smoking room on level 4 / main entrance.

    Very central location next to JR line - breakfast was great! Traditional and some western style offerings. Staff were great very helpful and tolerant of minimal language skills.

    Good stay! Short, no complaints.

    Maybe room size? But then again it was what was advertised, so cant really complain. Breakfast could have more continental optinos - once again, not a very fair complaint, since we were the only western family in the place.

    LOCATION - right by the station. I mean 5 min from getting out of the train. ROOM - simple, functional, clean. Not very large, just a counter across the window wall with a mini fridge (dont forget to switch it on, there is a button inside!) Huge TV. HDMI input for compatible equipment. Daughter slept on the bunk and had a blast. Double bed at the bottom is confortable. though tricky to rais from since one side is placed against the wall. BREAKFAST - limited continental, mostly asian style. No complaints, Very OK. Note - there was a happy hour going on that day, with free booze in the restaurant. Neat!

    I think it would be much better if the welcome bar can be opened until a little bit later like maybe 10 PM. Also, me and my partner had to share one long pillow, there was no extra one even though i asked the front staff.

    I was surprised by the welcome bar when you can have free alcohol and non-alcohol drinks until 9 PM. The bar also has a very cozy atm with nice view too. The hotel’s onsen was very nice and clean.

    The next rooms on both sides were sealed off on Day 2…did they have a pest problem?

    I arrived one hour prior to the check in time. They have strict rule for the the check in time therefore it’s not possible to make early check in. Thought there might be available rooms already.

    The room was small, but I used it primarily for sleeping for the I one night I was there. The window was covered by a sliding door in lieu of curtains, so either the windows provide light with the nearby building having a view in, or you rely on lights.

    It is attached to the JR station by a 5 metre bridge, so no toting bags. The room entry was by a coffee, so no threat of a lost key.

    Room is too small.

    Location is excellent, right beside the JR station. Room is too small to stay comfortably for two persons even for a short stay. Breakfast is simple but quite good. There is a natural onsen in the hotel, which is the added value for the guests if you like Japanese hot spring. Front desk staff are very nice, but speak poor English as usual.

    the Location couldn't be more convenient if you're only staying for a short while. the hotel is directly connected to nara station. you can see the trains from your room (luckily you cannot hear them). Ideal if you're travelling the country by train on a budget.
