  • This was my first st...

    This was my first stay, and I was very satisfied with the outstanding value for money. Above all, I was surprised that a Hotel in this price range offers access to a rooftop terrace bar, and it was wonderful to relax while taking in the views of Nara’s cityscape.The room was clean and well equipped, and the staff were polite and attentive, making for a very comfortable stay. The location is also convenient and ideal as a base for sightseeing, and I would definitely like to stay here again when I visit Nara.

    This was my second stay, and I used the Accommodation for a trip to Nara with a friend. At the front desk, I was offered an upgrade to an Executive Room, which also gave us access to the lounge. They also said, “You stayed with us in May as well—thank you,” which made me feel both happy and reassured that they manage guest records properly. The lounge was spacious and comfortable, and we were satisfied with both the drinks and food. It truly felt like “service beyond the price,” and my friend was delighted too, so I’m glad I invited them. Breakfast was also great—we enjoyed Nara specialties such as kakinoha-zushi and chagayu—making this another very satisfying stay. My friend and I decided to visit Nara again next spring when the flowers are beautiful, and when we do, I would definitely like to stay here again.
