JW Marriott Hotel Nara

"The hotel was the best we stayed at during this trip. It's across from the Nara City Hall and next to a beautiful bookstore. The rooms were nice, but surprisingly, they didn't offer water in the lobby. The front desk service wasn't very welcoming, and the breakfast wasn't quite to my taste. Everything else was fine."

Nara Park Hotel

"The hotel in general is a reasonably priced hot spring inn, with good customer service and spacious rooms, but a little old. There were many small children, and it was fully booked, even though it was not a weekend. We had the 1,300-year-old gourmet cuisine "Tenpyo no Utage," which claims to be the only one of its kind in Japan. The cuisine was created with the support of archaeologists and culinary experts over five years, based on wooden tablets, pottery, and documents excavated from Heijo Palace. Including the 20 years since then, it has a tradition of 35 years. Each dish was explained to us. It was very delicious, and almost all the dishes were Michelin one-star level. However, some dishes left a disappointing impression. The daigo, a cheese-like dish made by boiling down milk, was overcooked and was dry and hard. It was much browner than the sample. The wild boar meat was too hard and had lost too much moisture. The dried figs had lost too much moisture. The other dishes, as you would expect from imperial court cuisine, were just the right firmness and very delicious. I was put off by the fact that the only drink available was white sake (shiroki: cloudy sake), even though it was apparently all-you-can-drink. The tea (not sure what kind of tea it was) that came towards the end was not tasty either, but it was easier to drink than white sake, so I wish it had been brought out sooner. Imperial court cuisine, whether Okinawan, Korean, Chinese, or French, is indescribably delicious. I would definitely recommend trying ancient Japanese imperial court cuisine. You can enjoy the ancient imperial court cuisine alone, even without staying overnight. The Tenpyo Banquet is the pinnacle of this hotel!!!"

Ando Hotel Nara Wakakusayama -Dlight Life & Hotels-

"It's great. The room is on the fifth floor with a good view. Since there is an open-air bath upstairs, there is no noise or disturbance at all. The night stargazing and Mt. Wakakusa night tour arranged by the hotel are both great value for money, except for the large section of Japanese explanation that I couldn't understand at all. The hotel staff provide excellent service. They greet guests when they check in and when they go out. Especially when the shuttle bus departs and returns, all employees line up and wave, creating a sense of ceremony."

Kamenoi Hotel Nara

"Fully equipped, the room has enough space for four people! Very comfortable ☺️ 85%"

Fufu Nara

"It was a fantastic experience. The room, the hot spring, the food, and the service were all very attentive and thoughtful, leaving a great impression. I think I will reunite with my family at Fufu again."

Hotel Asyl Nara

"The location is between JR Nara and Kintetsu Nara, and it is very convenient to go anywhere. The room is a bit old, but it was cleaned very well. The highlight is that there is a free large bath and the breakfast is very delicious!"

Hotel New Wakasa

"Service: The service quality of the waiter was very good, as always, meticulous, and photos were sent. Environment: The room we stayed in had a sense of age But we booked the main building, but were arranged to stay in the other building. The main building and the other building are connected, and the breakfast is of the same standard, but in fact there is a price difference, and the facilities in the main building are newer. It is unknown whether the price difference was deliberately booked in the other building, or the agent made a mistake, or the hotel deliberately arranged it. People who choose to stay later need to pay attention to whether they are staying in the main building."

Kasuga Hotel

"The hotel boasts an excellent location, just 200 meters from Kintetsu Nara Station, making it an ideal spot for visiting Kasuga Park. The hotel features a traditional Japanese style, and the rooms are spacious. The service is superb, with complimentary tea and drinks available in the lobby."

Daiwa Roynet Hotel Nara Natural Hot Spring

"This onsen hotel, part of the Daiwa group, offers an excellent breakfast. The dinner, however, was a bit underwhelming; I feel like I should have booked a different meal package. I missed out on the ice cream offered at the hot springs both in the morning and evening. Since it's located next to a JR station, some rooms can hear the train noise. It's close to a local supermarket, which is convenient for buying fruits and vegetables. If you're visiting Nara, staying near the Kintetsu line might be more convenient."

Super Hotel Premier Jr Nara Eki

"1. The hotel's welcome bar is a really nice touch. From 5-9 PM, they offer a free tasting of various drinks. It's almost always full, but everyone is very quiet. 2. The bathroom in the room is genuinely small, which makes using the toilet and washing up a bit inconvenient. 3. All the staff are very enthusiastic. The middle-aged gentleman who checked me in was especially helpful, and the younger female staff members were also very warm. 4. I did encounter one staff member, Ms. Benshan, whose service I was not satisfied with. I was checking out and needed to store my luggage around 7:50 AM on October 25th, as I was going to the Shosoin Exhibition. She handed me a form and told me in English to fill in my name and room number. However, there was no field for a room number on the form. She then urged me to fill in my phone number, repeating it twice. I explained that she had just said 'room number,' which was why I was looking for that field. At that point, she just said it wasn't necessary and took my luggage. There weren't many other guests that morning, and I wasn't taking up much of her time. This kind of service attitude definitely needs retraining."

Comfort Hotel Nara

"Great stay, close to the jr station but you need transport or a 20min walk to the deer park but the breakfast is amazing with free coffee available all day."
