Nara Hotels with Bars

A hotel full of history as it has been the chosen venue for important events in Nara. Many celebrities had stayed in this hotel including Albert Einstein. Tried the rice lager at the tea house which is very good tgough some may find it not strong enough. The vicinity is nice. It is within waljing distance of the famous Nara Park. The room is spacious. Shuttle bus service to Nara station is excellent. Very helpful staff. An enjoyable stay indeed!

I believe it is important to acknowledge and celebrate excellence, and I sincerely hope that the outstanding efforts of the hotel team members are recognized for their service excellence: - Wang Yu Wen (Azekura) - Nobukazu Yoshida (Azekura) - Miyamae (Azekura) - Okubo Ren (Azekura) - Murata (Lounge) - Pabina (Lounge) - Kim (Front Desk) - Pitcha (Front Desk) - Arjun (Front Desk) - Dushanta (Front Desk) Some highlights of this stay: - Sparkling Wine provided for Bonvoy members during breakfast, ingredients also sourced from Nara - FHR dining credit has 125usd instead of the 100usd - Azekura the JP restaurant: one of the best teppanyaki and kaiseki I had in JP - no sento but there's a jacuzzi in the pool. The fitness gym was quite comprehensive The regular Room was already very big, comfy bed and clean! No upgrade this time since all rooms are fully booked - service! 100% good! One of the most friendly staff and quite a number overseas staff. - The hotel provide a shuttle bus to Nara station or Kintetsu Below content for those who has time to read To start, it was the first day of the dining experience at Azekura that got me to have not one but two dining occasions at the restaurant. Chef Wang Yu Wen not only delivered a gastronomic experience throughout my teppanyaki lunch course, but he also delivered a very personal one-one dining service experience. His culinary expertise was showcased in every dish despite my dietary restriction, every flavour simply delighted my palate. Kirito did an exceptional service by recommending a great local Nara sake to pair with my lunch course., The second day of Kaiseki was equally delightful and I was extremely surprised to be greeted by the 料理長, Mr Nobukazu Yoshida who honestly provided such an “Omotenashi” experience throughout my time at Azekura. Mr Okubo Ren and Ms Miyamae also delivered great service during my lunch dining on the second day. Overall, the dining experience at Azekura was the highlight of my stay and till now, I couldn’t help but marvel due to the great service that was initiated by Mr Wang Yu Wen. Additionally, I would like to commend the impeccable service I received during the check-in process. I I was impressed at Mr Kim’s patience and service throughout the check-in experience, and I was really glad to get a warm welcoming experience from both Mr Arjun and Ms Pitcha at the lobby. Their attention to detail and willingness to accommodate specific requests made a significant difference, setting the tone for an enjoyable and happy stay. It is evident that the team takes pride in delivering top-notch service, and their efforts did not go unnoticed. Furthermore, the hospitality at the lounge was exemplary. Despite the huge crowd during the festive season, the lounge staff did create a comfortable and enjoyable one. Both Murata and Pabina were some of those whom I felt had delivered great service during the evening cocktail hours. Lastly

From the moment we arrived at Mikasa in the hills above Nara, we knew that this was going to be a special place to stay. The staff had arrived out front to greet us and assist us with our luggage. Our name was up on the board of arrivals, and after handing over our passports, we were quickly ushered into their main seating area off the lobby for some Ocha and a view of Nara below. My assumption is that they were doing that additional check-in procedures and verifying the room was ready during this time, so it was a nice touch to be able to relax while waiting. The ladies in our group were then given their choice of Yukata. For whatever reason, the men's were already in the room. We were then shown the facilities on our way to the rooms and given the information as to how the bathing worked. It was a lot of information to digest, but not unreasonable. The rooms were larger than expected, with the traditional tatami matting and our own private onsen on the porch. The room had HVAC, which was nice as it was quite chilly outside and it kept the room the perfect temperature. Not long after we arrived, it was time for the traditional Japanese dinner. We arrived slightly early to our reserved time but were delighted to find that our own private dining room had already been set up for our dining experience. We could not believe the amount which had already been laid out for us. It was a delightful mix of colors and aromas, and provided a precursor for the several courses which were to follow. The food was amazing. Even when there were dishes that were not to our liking (due to palette, not quality) , we dud enjoy the presentation. Although there was a bell to ring for service, our host always seemed to know when we were finishing and was ready with the next course. It was quite the experience and would recommend to anyone to ensure you get the traditional dining options. From there, we retired back to the rooms to get ready for the onsen, which was open for longer hours than expected. I believe they closed at midnight and opened back up at 05:30am. Some opted to get up early to enjoy the relative privacy of an early morning soak before breakfast. We again went the traditional route for breakfast, and while it was a bit more adventurous than we were used to, it embraced the mornings offerings of seafood, savory proteins, and intriguing fruits. The quantity of food was comparable to the dinner the previous evening, which is to say, a lot of it. After that, it was time to check-out as we had elected for just a 1 night stay, though we would all have liked to stay another night. The best part was, for check-out, they would take you bags and drop them at the Ryokan's information center allowing guests to spend their day in Nara without the hassle of dealing with luggage. Definitely a 5-star touch. Please note that there was some confusion about the location of the info booth as both times we were pointed to different spots on the map, neither of whi

We stayed one night in FUFU Nara on the way from Tokyo to Kyoto. We took a special train - Aoniyoshi from Kyoto to Nara and it was very enjoyable ride. We took a taxi from Kintetsu Nara station to the hotel. Hotel staff greeted us right away and kept the our luggage for us until the check-in time. It is located next to Ukimido and we were able to visit Todaiji and the giant Buddha before the check-in. Once we return, we had a nice cold welcome drink. Hotel staff were very professional and friendly. It was obvious that they take a great pride on performing their tasks. Our room was super clean and modern with some Japanese touches. And the hot tub on the balcony was amazing. We contemplated between FUFU and the new Shisui, but we were very glad that we chose FUFU. At FUFU, I believe all rooms are suites and come with the private open air onsen. We did read some reviews on the noise. We did not notice too much especially after dodging so many screaming school children at Todaiji. At night, we had teppan yaki dinner for our anniversary. It was pretty cool to dress in yukata with a hanten jacket. The sandals were comfortable, also. We walked through the bamboo garden to get to the restaurant. Our chef was friendly and food was delicious. With sake pairing, we had a great time. Breakfast was served at the same restaurant, and the walk was beautiful in the morning. Food was delicious and the service was excellent. The lady who served us explained each dish very politely. It's hard to believe they are so helpful even without any tips. Staying at FUFU made our stay in Nara very special.

I ordered a double bed and made a loft. The overall space is not very large, but it is much more comfortable than domestic hotels. The hygiene and service are excellent. The location is very good. It is 7 minutes walk from Nara Park and 5 minutes from the subway entrance. A place to eat, drink and play for 5 minutes. You can play in Nara for a few more days, the deer are very cute

I stayed to take a picture of the scenery of Nara in the morning because I was worried about the atmosphere that the appearance produced before. Two young men who were friendly were at the front and bar space, and it was a very pleasant response. Only meals were provided, and 々 foreigners living in Nara were used as part of Kendo or some training. The bath is a spacious bathroom with a bathtub and ２ places only for showers. After bathing, read while drinking free coffee in a shared space where you can see the garden. I enjoyed the conversation with those who were guided by cycling tours from Australia. I thought I would continue reading after I stayed in the dormitory, but I wanted to drink in a retro bar space, and I was 3 minutes before the end of the service at 22 o'clock, but I was very kind to make a water split. Sleep comfortably. The next morning I checked out without eating, but the gentle response of the male staff was really pleasant and talked about Nara, which was fun again. There is no chance, but it is an inn that I wanted to go to stay again. I think I'll go to eat only.

It is a small hotel, along the national route, so the entrance is difficult to understand. If you don't look at the map well, you will pass by. It was a hiding hotel and I was able to be quiet and calm because the number of rooms was not small. There was also a balcony in a wide room with a low bed. It was 2 meals, but it was influenced by corona or 2 meals to the room. I was very satisfied with a solid meal for a reasonable price.

Facing an ancient road Kamitsumichi in close proximity to a world heritage Gangoji temple, this vacation rental housed in a remodeled Machiya exudes cedar scent while remaining the mood of Edo period building structure.

The long-awaited purple Nara! Thank you for staying with my mother. Even at this stay, ... From the pick-up to the see-off ... Maruyama Chiichifu Concierge received a very polite response! Mr. Hashiya manager! Thank you for your wonderful time. Kengo Kuma renovated the guest room of 'Nara Prefectural Governor's Office' built in early 1900, and revived the taste of the Taisho Period to the present age. In November 1951, Emperor Showa renovated the San Francisco Peace Treaty and Japan and the United States When I was a child, such as the reception room ”Go Certification Room” of the former prefectural governor's office, which is also a historic place to sign the ratification of the Security Treaty, ... The historic site that was listed in the textbook in the social studies class is in the hotel. In the reception room, round tables and chairs By seeing it for the first time through furnishings, ... I was impressed and at the same time I felt strange. Above all, my mother, who loves Kengo Kuma's modern architecture, was very impressed, so ... Great success! The rag colle of the green brand is not only purple but also Arashiyama purple! Irafu Sui Miyakojima! The hotels in every area are wonderful, but ... purple Nara was better than I imagined. Next time, I will revisit with my partner at the end of April, so please do not hesitate to do so. Thank you for your continued support 🤲

おしゃれで奈良らしい和を感じさせるデザインでした。個人的に窓際のソファが使いやすく食事をしながらリラックスできました。泊まった部屋は25平米くらいでしたが、洗面台やクローゼットがオープンなので、体感的にはもっと広く感じます。ミラーから大浴場の混雑状況やルームサービスも注文できるので非常に便利 夕朝食ともに一階のポンテ奈良で利用しました。どちらもブッフェです。ディナーはひとつひとつがコースメニューで提供されるようなクオリティで美味しく満足。ピザ窯で調理した出来たてピザが3-4種類あります。パスタも複数種類あり飽きません。またレストラン空間そのものがとてもおしゃれ。様々なタイプの席があり、色々なシーンで利用してみたいです。 8階に宿泊者であればだれでも使えるルーフトップテラスがあります。夜がオススメです。奈良の夜景が一望でき、テーブル上の照明と相まって、とても良い雰囲気です。ロビーからあがってすぐの2階のラウンジは穴場。一人用ブースソファは背もたれが大きいので後ろからの視線が気にならないのでパソコン作業で集中できます。パワーボール（電源）もあります。フォンブース等、他にも仕事で使えそうな席が各所にあり、出張時の宿泊先としてもおすすめです！
