Directly connected to JR Nara Station! A hotel with excellent access to tourist attractions, Kyoto, and Osaka.

Direct access from JR Nara Station (West Exit) for excellent convenience. Nara Park, Todaiji Temple, Kofukuji Temple, Kasuga Taisha Shrine, and other famous attractions are all within walking distance. Kyoto and Osaka are less than 1 hour away by train, making it ideal for business as well. Our breakfast buffet “Nara Morning Breakfast,” featuring local specialties, and our “guest-only bath” are especially popular.

  • I stayed for two nights for a trip to Nara.It was very convenient with direct access from JR Nara Station.My Room was on the 9th floor, with a great view, and I had a comfortable stay.All the staff were very kind and always greeted me with a smile, which made me very happy.When I asked how to get to sightseeing spots, a Hotel in Kyoto told me to just check Google Maps and didn’t help much, but every staff member here explained things kindly and clearly.It was more convenient and faster than what I found online, so it really helped.The large public bath felt crowded all the time because the changing area is small and there aren’t many lockers.It was helpful that I could check how crowded it was via QR code. I also appreciated the free ice cream.The breakfast buffet was nice because there were different items on the first and second day.They also stored my luggage both before check-in and after check-out, which was a big help.I would like to stay here again when I visit Nara.

  • Thank you for your suggestions for the Roku-chan Room. We’re also cherishing the kofun cushion we purchased at home. Although we originally planned to stay overnight, we ended up enjoying many things more than expected. We were able to stay until late and relax at our own pace. Thank you very much for everything.
