Enjoy the ancient city of Nara at an Onsen Hotel next to the Heijō Palace Site.

"Kamenoi Hotel Nara" is a tranquil Onsen Hotel located adjacent to the "Heijo Palace Site," one of the components of the UNESCO World Heritage "Historic Monuments of Ancient Nara." The Room options include a variety of types such as serene Japanese-style rooms, Western-style rooms, and special Japanese-Western style rooms with private baths offering panoramic views. The large communal bath features an indoor bath with a soothing interior made of charred cedar wood, inspired by the ancient capital, and an open-air bath where you can relax and enjoy natural Onsen. Access to the Hotel is convenient, with approximately a 15-minute walk from Kintetsu "Yamato-Saidaiji" Station or about a 15-minute taxi ride from JR Nara Line "Nara" Station, allowing for multiple station options. When visiting Nara to immerse yourself in its history and culture, we warmly invite you to stay at our Hotel.

  • The front desk staff were very kind and helpful, and we had a wonderful stay. It was a three-generation trip with my daughter and grandchild, and it became a great memory. We are truly grateful—thank you very much.

  • The staff were very attentive, and the food was delicious. One thing I noticed was that the shower stations in the washing area of the bath were quite close together, and I was concerned I might accidentally spray the person next to me. I understand it may be due to limited space, but having partitions or a bit more distance between showers would be appreciated.

Kame no I Hotel Nara's 3 Attractions: ③ Nearby Sightseeing

The world heritage site "Heijo Palace Ruins," adjacent to the Hotel, is the former palace site of Heijo-kyo, which was relocated from Fujiwara-kyo. Some structures, such as the Daigokuden Hall and Suzaku Gate, have been restored, offering plenty of attractions to explore. At night, you can enjoy the beautifully illuminated night scenery. Additionally, there are numerous world heritage sites scattered around the area. It takes about 15 minutes by car to reach "Todai-ji," known for the "Great Buddha of Nara." About 20 minutes by car will take you to "Kasuga Taisha," established to protect Heijo-kyo and famous for its shrine buildings being rebuilt every 20 years. "Kofuku-ji," which flourished as the family temple of Fujiwara no Kamatari and was relocated to this area with the capital transfer, is about 15 minutes by car. Lastly, "Yakushi-ji," constructed under the wish of Emperor Tenmu and representing the layout of Buddhist temple complexes of the time, is about 10 minutes by car.
