hotel was conveniently situated near the entrance of nara park and the shrine. deers right outside hotel. hotel staff were very friendly and explained details well.
only down side of the room was that the air conditioning/heater was centrally controlled. we had to open the windows at night or else it will be too stuffy. however there were a few trucks who will come by at night around 4-5am to deliver goods and it will create noise.
overall rooms were great. however will likely choose another place to stay in nara :)

This was the best hotel on our trip to Japan! The Japanese style bedroom was spacious, clean and very cozy. The staff spoke English (and some Russian) very well. We also took part in free activities (cosplay, calligraphy, origami), which was fun. And there were some deer just outside the hotel.

A quiet place for relaxation after 3 days of hectic schedule in Osaka. Can see deers in front of the hotel. The space is a bit too small for 4 pax. After laying out the futons, no place to walk to the bathroom. There are activities scheduled in the tourist centre such as making origami, etc.

Absolutely amazing place! The room completely matched its description, but there was an added bonus - the hotel has an onsen (hot spring bath). But the main advantage of this place is that the hotel is located at the Nara tourist information center, where enthusiastic people work and tell you about interesting places to visit. And you can also try writing in katakana, or folding origami, or taking pictures in a kimono. The vacation was a success! Thank you to the wonderful people who work there!

Love this hotel although it is not near to train station. There are deers just outside the hotel and within walking distant to attractions, ab”bout 5-10 min walk. Only problem is hotel lobby is on second floor. Either access through the stairs at ground floor or going through the slop behind the building. You can actually access through the convenient store which is at B1 to take a lift, during the store opening hours. But was not advised/informed by the hotel.

Our staying here was short but so wonderful. We had everything we needed. Feel happy walking out from the hotel and seeing deers resting around the pond. Staff was so welcoming and helpful, rooms very comfortable and so beautiful with traditional style. So in love with Nara and this Tourist Center and Inn😍
