This villa was lovely! We actually said- can we live here? The bed was wonderful. The spare room with the giant tv was a huge perk. The bathroom was gorgeous with a giant tub. They left soaps and all the amenities we might need and more. About a 8 minute walk from Nara station with luggage. Just a really lovely stay.

Just wow. Great room, awesome facilities. The only thing, we had a cockroach outside while enjoying the onsen. It climbed out of the sewer or something and I was terrified to death :)

Beautiful property and the host was amazing. He was so nice and gave amazing recommendations. He called a restaurant to make a reservation for which he recommended and it was one of the best yakiniku places we’ve been to. We also went out to a karaoke bar with him and we had a great time! It was a nice property but the host made the experience even better!

The guesthouse has a good location between the JR station, the Kinketsu station and Nara’s park, and the house is a japanese traditional one with nice common rooms to rest and to cook. From the dormitories you don’t hear the noise from the road ( but you won’t escape the crickets when the sun is up!).

The hotel is right next to the station so is very easily accessible. It is also very easy to get a bus down to Nara park and the other big sights. Great location. The room was a good size and well equipped. The hotel was lovely with so many extras - a free onsen, free evening drinks, pjs, a choice of pillows etc. Staff were very friendly and welcoming

The location is amazing, literally inside Nara park, so very close to the deers and some amazing temples. Our room was big and comfortable, the showers were great and the staff super friendly. It was also great that we had sockets so close to the beds in our room.

This was a magical and wonderful experience that will stay in our hearts for ever. The temple location in the mountain was very quiet, futons were really confortable, both meals were delicious and delicate and we could attend two different prayers early in the morning and experience mediation time with a monk. The temple grounds are nice to walk around in the evening. Thank you.

Very good location, close to the Kintetsu station and to the Park. Very useful automated baggage deposit for early check-in or late check-out. The self-check in procedure is very simple and funny. My daughter appreciated a lot the presence of a large manga library available for guests.

Wonderful location, so close to the most common tourist attractions, but also nearby lots of cute little streets and great restaurants. The atmosphere was calm, everything was clean, and the staff were 10/10 so wonderful! They truly went above and beyond for us while we were there, and they made the stay even better. The cafe was lovely as well, and we enjoyed sitting outside on the patio and watch the deer graze right next to us. Overall a very serene and calm experience.

The room was very clean and, as for the amenities, were fully provided. On the 6th floor it has the Japanese dai-yokujo (huge baths, devided by gender). Best location possible, as, once you arrive at Nara and get off the train, it's on the same level of the train station: you. can drop the luggages and start your sightseeing. It provides different restaurants, such as the Japanese Teppanyaki, where the ingredients were supreme, including the wagyu (tried this food exp).
