Miroku Nara by the Share Hotels ★★★

📍 1116-6 Takabatakecho, Nara City

"The Japanese-style mountain view room boasts a stunning 270-degree mountain view. It's room number 01. A deer is relaxing on the lawn outside the window; while you're looking away, it's out foraging."

Tenpyo Ryokan
8.5 (34 reviews)

Tenpyo Ryokan ★★★

📍 9 Higashimukai-nakamachi, Nara City

"The large bathhouse is similar to a smaller version of the Northeastern large bathhouse. It is located in the commercial street, and the corridor exudes the smell of barbecue. Overall, it's a bit expensive. It's very close to Nara Park and close to Kintetsu."

JW Marriott Hotel Nara Hotels in Nara City

JW Marriott Hotel Nara

"My experience at the Nara Hotel during this trip to Nara was excellent, especially the incredibly kind Chinese-speaking staff at the front desk. We only asked for six bottles of water, but they gave us eight. They even provided us with a homemade tourist map. The room was also very spacious, clean, and comfortable. I would definitely stay here again if I had the chance. The only downsides are that it's a bit of a walk from Shin-Omiya Station, and the shuttle bus only runs until around 5 PM. This is less convenient for travelers returning to the hotel at night."

Novotel Nara Hotels in Nara City

Novotel Nara

"Overall, my stay was quite good. The hotel has a new and modern exterior design, and facilities like the gym are very clean. The room itself was tidy and clean, the bed was comfortable, and all the amenities were well-equipped. The location is convenient, with shops and restaurants nearby, and getting around was very easy. The staff were friendly, and the check-in process was smooth. It would be even better if the price were more favorable. I would consider staying here again if I have the chance."

Shisui, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Nara Hotels in Nara City

Shisui, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Nara

"Facilities: The hotel facilities are extremely clean. Hygiene: Both the room and the hotel lobby are very clean. Service: The service attitude is excellent, and the hotel receptionist speaks Chinese. Environment: The surrounding environment is particularly good, close to Nara Park."

Nara Hotel Hotels in Nara City

Nara Hotel

"The service is very good and the environment is beautiful. The hotel has its own courtyard for taking photos, and there are no tourists from tour groups to disturb you. The historical atmosphere is all made of wood. The gate, lobby, front desk, and stairs alone can make a big movie. The room is very large. It is close to the Daibutsuji Temple. You can leave at 7 o'clock in the morning and avoid the crowds at the foot of Higashiyama. Nara Hotel is the most outstanding hotel in this 5-day, 4-night stay."

Kamenoi Hotel Nara Hotels in Nara City

Kamenoi Hotel Nara

"Although the scenery near the hotel seems to be remote, the hotel is actually in a good location. Next door is the ruins of Heijo Palace, and it is about a ten-minute walk from Kintetsu Yamato-Saidaiji Railway Station. Popular attractions such as Nara Park are only two stations away. The hotel can reserve a shuttle bus to the railway station. I saw some guests using it, but I didn't use it. The room is bigger than I expected. There is no extra charge for the hotel's hot spring facilities. There are both indoor and outdoor pools. The service of the hotel staff is very good. Overall, it is highly recommended."

Hotel Asyl Nara Hotels in Nara City

Hotel Asyl Nara

"Bad review, bad review, bad review. This hotel is the most unpleasant experience in my trip to Japan. I booked a twin room for more than 500, but there was one more person when I arrived. At first, they charged me 25,000 yen more, as if they had never seen money. After repeated communication, they deducted my original breakfast and said that I would have to pay at least 13,500 yen more. They used the most gentle words but did the most cruel thing. I couldn't communicate with the Ctrip manager to check out, and I was speechless in the end. But I have a backbone. I don't want the room or the money. It's super wordy and there is no service attitude at all."

The Deer Park Inn Hotels in Nara City

The Deer Park Inn

"The room was considered large for Japan, with only two beds and a table. The bathroom was shared, but it wasn't crowded, so there was no queue. The receptionist looked like Liu Yifei and was very friendly and welcoming. Overall, it was a good experience."

Hotel Asyl Nara Annex Hotels in Nara City

Hotel Asyl Nara Annex

"An older hotel but very well maintained and clean. The bed was comfortable and the room size was decent. Free parking is definitely a bonus. Breakfast was included and the food was amazing. The staff were lovely and welcoming and they even provide free beverages from 3pm onwards which is a nice touch. Overall the price is reasonable for what you get. Location is not far if you are driving to the tourist attraction."

Iroha Grand Hotel Kintetsu Nara Ekimae Hotels in Nara City

Iroha Grand Hotel Kintetsu Nara Ekimae

"I went to Japan for 6 days and this was the best hotel I had stayed. It was clean, comfy and the bathtub was big too. It was just a stone throw to the attractions. The price for a night was very very cheap."

Super Hotel Jr Nara Ekimae Sanjo Dori Hotels in Nara City

Super Hotel Jr Nara Ekimae Sanjo Dori

"My trip to Japan was so enjoyable largely because of this hotel! I was initially worried about the two Superhotels, but this one was fantastic! It's right across from the JR station, and the staff at the front desk all speak Chinese, and I heard they also speak Korean, Japanese, and English—amazing! Communication was completely seamless. During check-in, they explained everything in detail, including pillows, pajamas, combs, shampoo, and more! The breakfast was delicious and very Japanese, and I noticed many Japanese people choose to stay here, which was really great. Nara Park is also within walking distance. Overall, I had a wonderful time. I've already recommended it to everyone I know, and I'll definitely choose this hotel again next time I'm in Kansai—it's even cheaper than others! The rooms are small, but that seems to be a common problem with Japanese hotels."

Onyado Nono Nara Natural Hot Spring ★★★★
"I liked the friendliness and professionalism of the staff! I find them very helpful and kind! I like the onsen, massage chair, ice cream and breakfast. I lived in the room facing the train tracks. The sound proof windows do a good job blocking the sound. The entrance is separated by 2 doors, so I didn’t hear much from the hallway. Very private."

Hotel Fine Garden Nara Horai ★★★
"The room is very well equipped. The room is big and well lighted. It comes with ionizer, massage chair, fridge, TV with free movie and microwave. The bathroom comes with a Japanese style shower and a jacuzzi. The service is good at both the front desk, they make up the room daily and the room service is fast. Most importantly, for what we are getting, it is certainly value for money and it comes with daily breakfast for 2. The only drawback is it is 1 km from the nearest train station."

Hotel Nikko Nara ★★★★★
"The hotel's location is pretty good. You exit JR Nara West and take the second-floor outdoor corridor to get to the hotel. The front desk is on the third floor. The service was very enthusiastic and excellent. Breakfast was also very, very plentiful. It's just that the hotel is a bit old; the facilities feel like they've been around for a while."

Miroku Nara by the Share Hotels ★★★
"This is the most stupid hotel I have ever been to. I had my breakfast here and that’s food to make sure. And for lunch I decided to eat some sandwiches at the canteen. That’s also food with no smell. When I was just about to order some drinks, a staff came to me and said ‘food is not allowed here.’ Then where else can I eat this??? And he said downstairs in b1. I was totally shocked by his logic which was zero logic. Breakfast = food and outer food = food as well, like it’s just a sandwich with no smell. Is it not a hotel that guests are even not allowed to eat their food in the sun with fresh air?? Any food not provided by them are not allowed and there was no other space to sit in the lobby. This is as funny as ****. They are even more stupid than robots that they make up rules with no logic and they will follow them without thinking till die. 很糟糕的一次经历:首先位置比较偏,房间窗帘不够隔亮;其次大堂未消费者不允许使用,即使点了他们的咖啡也不能吃外带的汉堡,不可思议;最后早餐分日式和西式,我要求日式,她们说已经售完,但是后面的几位美国客人点日式就有了,赤裸裸的美国舔狗?总之是要被拉黑的一家酒店"
