Modern and newly designed, the space features a beautiful interior with cozy spots to relax, including sofas and chairs positioned in front of the bath. The gym was a nice bonus—though compact and equipped with lighter weights (up to 16kg), it was still a welcome addition.

The staff was friendly, though not particularly helpful. The location is slightly outside the city center, but they do offer a complimentary shuttle bus on select days, running once every hour. However, the bus is quite small and doesn't accommodate many passengers, so it's a good idea to queue at least 30 minutes early if you want to secure a spot.

Great stay, especially for the price location is on the main road and not too far from nara Park, having direct transport to it as well. Inside was super clean, and all amenities were good ! And service was really good helping us out if needed with anything Honestly surprised by it !

A good location if you plan to do the local Parkrun but quite a distance from Nara park. Has an onsen but we didn’t use. Shuttle bus to stations which was very handy. Good breakfast.

Was perfectly nice but felt quite American and lacked that touch of Japan we had expected.

Very beautiful space and open. Feels inviting when you come in.

Nothing I didn’t like persé. I did ask staff to help me navigate a booking with train but they said they couldn’t do it which was unfortunate. I really just wanted someone to look with me.

It is new and just across the street from Nara Prefectural Conventional Center and a big Tsutaya book store. There are bus stops that can bring you to Todaiji temple and Airport. Very convenient.

None. I like everything.
