The room was very user-friendly and thoughtfully designed for comfort. The bamboo grove view was incredibly soothing. Staff training is excellent; a Taiwanese staff member stood out with their warm smile and exceptional service. They did an impressive job with Japanese Kaiseki cu

It lets me enjoy the seasonal scenery such as cherry blossoms, fresh green maple leaves, cicadas in summer, autumn foliage, and snow. Depending on sunrise time, I can also appreciate how different the approach to Horyu-ji looks each day and feel a wonderful sense of unity with Ik

The view from the Room at dusk was breathtaking, and the greenery and scenery of Todai-ji Temple and Mt. Wakakusa—visible from the open-air bath, the daybed, and the Room—were truly soothing. Spending time at this Accommodation with my friend was relaxing and refreshing. The staf

The Hotel allows you to spend time in the provided indoor wear, which is very comfortable, and they have plenty of towels in the large public bath. The ReFa hairdryer was also very pleasant to use. The Room is clean, and the samue and bed covers, as well as the room's hanger rack

The meals were outstanding too. A delicate and delicious dinner that makes you want sake. A gentle rice porridge breakfast served in beautiful dishes. The fluffy rolled omelet had such a mild flavor—everything was delicious!! After all that walking, Onsen is definitely better th

I’m usually picky about pillows, but the bed was very comfortable. The drinks in the fridge were cheaper than at other hotels. The amenities were surprisingly luxurious for these days—the body towel felt great to use, the toothbrushes were good quality, and there was even a ReFa

We celebrated a 60th birthday and had an amazing experience! First of all, thank you for your thoughtful hospitality. From the seating arrangement with a view of the garden (and torii gate), to the BD plate and commemorative gifts, every detail was truly appreciated. The kind

The location near Nara Station was very convenient. The Room was spacious and clean. The late-night soba was delicious. As for the Onsen, it would have been perfect if the changing area were a bit larger. I really liked being able to take off my shoes at the entrance, step onto the tatami, and go straight to my Room. I was able to relax and enjoy my stay. I would like to stay here again when visiting Nara.

Not only was everything delicious, but the timing of each course was perfect—steamed dishes and clear soup arrived at just the right moment, and even the heating of the tabletop dish was managed so we could enjoy everything at its best. We also appreciated having a vinegared dish

This is my third stay at this hotel, and I absolutely love it. Nara is a perfect place to enjoy temples, shrines, and nature at a leisurely pace, and whenever I visit, I always choose to stay at Novotel Nara. I highly recommend the Executive Floor for its cozy Executive Lounge,

I stayed here on a trip to Nara. Even though it was a great-value Plan, the Room was spacious and spotless, with a wide range of amenities. It was also very quiet. The bathroom and toilet were new, and the Facility was excellent, so I had a very comfortable stay. Above all, every

The Room and shared spaces were impeccably clean, making our first stay here very pleasant. Breakfast was delightful, served in a meal plate & mini buffet style. The plate included items like a deliciously spiced curry soup, which was a unique experience for Hotel breakfast. We

It was a Hotel I booked for my wife. She said the large public bath was spacious and relaxing. She also said the breakfast had a good variety, so it never got boring.

The breakfast restaurant "Otenki Parlor" had charming decor, and the buffet offered delicious options like gratin toast, French toast, and dashi chazuke. After check-out, all luggage lockers were full; however, a staff member kindly came out to store my luggage for me—very helpfu

I was also able to relax in the shared cafe area. The Hotel staff were kind and courteous, so I could stay without any worries. On my way out, I met one of the housekeeping staff members, who saw me off with a smile—another happy memory added to my trip. I would love to stay agai

The location is close to Sarusawa Pond, making it convenient for sightseeing. Naramachi is also nearby, so you can enjoy dining and shopping as well. The Hotel itself is not new, but it has everything you need, and the Room size feels just right. The staff were kind and courteous, and they also helped with recommendations for places to eat. I chose the plan with breakfast included. It was buffet-style, and everything was carefully prepared—delicious and enjoyable. I looked forward to breakfast every morning. I arrived by rental car, but there is no dedicated Hotel parking lot. You can park at a flat rate in the adjacent (Mitsui) coin parking lot, but if it’s full you’ll need to find another option yourself. I spent the mornings exploring within walking distance and drove farther out in the afternoon, then returned in the evening to park again. At that time of day, it seemed like day-trippers were leaving, so it worked out well for me. This is a Hotel I’d like to stay at again when I visit Nara.

I had a very pleasant stay. The dinner buffet was excellent with a variety of options including meat dishes, vegetable dishes, local specialties like tea porridge and Miwa somen, as well as cakes and ice cream. The large bath area featured an Onsen, sauna, and a walking pool,

The Room was small, but it was more than enough for one person. It was my first solo trip in a while, and I had a very pleasant stay. The Room was thoroughly cleaned and felt very comfortable. Check-in went smoothly, and the staff explained everything carefully. They had a memory foam pillow at the exact same height as the one I use at home, so I slept very well. Breakfast was also delicious. Thank you very much for your hospitality.
