Shisui, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Nara

Shisui, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Nara

Nara|1.04km from Mausoleum of Empress Ninshō
The historical significance of this venue must be highlighted to illustrate its uniqueness in Nara - We signed up for the complimentary tour of the hotel offered to hotel guests on certain mornings of the week and had the pleasure of having Ms. Sato, the director of marketing, introduce the story of Shisui and its past-life as the residence of the governor of Nara between 1922 to 2017, then as Shisui hotel with guest-rooms designed by renown architect Kengo Kuma. The emperor of Japan had stayed on property in post-war to sign the San Francisco treaty. Sato-san's thorough introduction in fluent-english had me realise a stay at this hotel is a unique experience in the way that it is beyond just luxury. The staff had been wonderful and eager to please without pushiness. It was much appreciated, as it gave room for my wife and I to enjoy each other's company at this perfectly peaceful property. The staff had been amazing from the beginning, at check-in, we had Rika-san, a lady with eyes that can smile, to help us check-in while we rest our feet at the lounge with tea, then guide us to our room while briefing us on all its amenities. The rooms were modern with accents of traditional Japanese designs to remind me of the locations' history. Details like the washroom walls that look like zen-gardens and overall wooden decor made my stay at the room one of the most relaxing experiences ever at any hotel. The French-Japanese wine-paired dinner at Suiyou was also our culinary highlight of our two-week vacation in Japan. In summary, after the two night stay, my wife had requested that we should come back to Shisui in the spring, summer and fall to experience all the seasons at this venue.
Hotel Nikko Nara

Hotel Nikko Nara

Nara|1.75km from Mausoleum of Empress Ninshō
Overall it was a great experience, so I gave it 5 stars🌟! Let’s talk about the advantages first: 1. The wood used in the interior decoration of the hotel is very natural, minimalist with a touch of luxury, giving people a very comfortable feeling☺️ 2. The outdoor hot spring pool experience is also very good, with beautiful scenery. It would be better if the tank could be larger. Otherwise, 2-3 people living in a room would not be able to experience it in 50 minutes. This is not very user-friendly. You are only given 50 minutes depending on the number of people, and the tank is too small so only one person can go in and soak in. Others have to wait outside, and couples cannot enjoy it at the same time. 🥺🥺🥺 3. In addition, the food is pretty good. Drinks are not included. There are not many amazing flavors. The first cold dish is the best. 4. The night view of Mt. Wakakusa is great, I must like this! The hotel will drive you up the mountain to see it👍 Let’s talk about the points that need to be improved: 1. The hotel service is a bit embarrassing, and the attitude is excellent, but there are always some indescribable feelings of inconsistency, such as kneeling service during check-in, and dining activities in the back. The waiter who checks you in does not even remember your last name and where you are. There are only a few rooms in the hotel (not for such a small-scale boutique B&B with few rooms), and there are obvious traces of the process. He also said that he would help to ask if there is any space in the private hot spring the next morning, but nothing was said. 🐶 2. The pillows on the bed in the room are very uncomfortable and too high. There is no difference between the two pillows as they are high. There is no choice. Be careful of stiff neck. 👴 3. The included dinner does not include drinks and menu upgrades, which need to be ordered separately, but we did not order them. When we checked out, the waitress came to ask us for payment. When we expressed confusion, she asked us if we had ordered dinner. Extra drinks. Please, don’t you keep track of whether guests order or not? Wouldn't it be rude to ask guests to confirm the check-out time themselves? 🙁 4. After observing the guests who stayed that day, basically the majority were Chinese (including Hong Kong and Taiwan), followed by a few European, American and Japanese guests. However, the hotel did not have a Chinese-speaking waiter. In addition to Japanese, it was Japanese-style English that was forced to recite words. I want to say that although you can communicate in English, but if you can't speak it, are you really respecting the Chinese guests by talking like a duck throughout the process? After all, it is extremely difficult to communicate like this. Some Japanese people cannot understand the English they speak. I wonder how the hotel has no Chinese-speaking waiters when there are so many Chinese guests and they even open Weibo for promotion? 🙁
JW Marriott Hotel Nara

JW Marriott Hotel Nara

Nara|2.55km from Mausoleum of Empress Ninshō
JW Marriott's site selection in Nara was such a failure that I was shocked. It is far away from all the attractions and stations in Nara. The rooms have no views, not even green plants. It is just a roadside business hotel on the outskirts of the city without any Nara characteristics. Two-thirds of the rooms are in The road side is very noisy. I moved to the inner side to make it quieter. It takes ten minutes to get to Nara Kintetsu Station. The bus takes 30 minutes. It is not convenient to travel. I rely on rentals. There is no one at the door of the hotel. I have to wait for more than ten minutes to call. The service is warm but there will be mistakes in getting breakfast. The concierge took things and made arrangements for the restaurant. The concierge also looked like he was unfamiliar with the business and said the line was busy. He made an announcement and did not reply. The room was a five-star level and the breakfast was OK. There was no hot spring. In addition to the dining bar, there was only one Western restaurant at the door. There was no set meal price. There seem to be a lot of foreign employees in Taihang. Generally speaking, I don’t recommend staying at Fufu. It’s just in the park. It costs more than 3,000 yuan per person, including breakfast and dinner. There are also hot springs where you can soak in the Marriott. It costs more than 2,000 yuan. The location is boring. The only bright spot is that there is a Tsutaya store next to it.

AN-Grande Hotel Nara

AN-Grande Hotel Nara

Nara|0.99km from Mausoleum of Empress Ninshō
I had decided two night stay in this hotel because this was so closed to (walk distance) the sightseeing spots: Nara Garden and the Temple. My family car arrived at 10:30pm on 3/1 and the girl staff came outside immediately and welcomed our arrival. She was so helpful for taking off the luggage from the car under cold temperature and nicely arranged our room and asked clearly the style and the time of breakfast we preferred so that the team could arrange in our satisfaction. The most amazing thing is that she was the local Japanese but her English is very fluent! On the other hand, the front desk manager is also very nice and helpful by assisting us to take the luggage to the room proactively. May I here specially thanks to this front desk team for your wonderful service and hospitality. My accommodation plan is superior room with Garden View. The room is so spacious which comfortably fit in 3 of us with luggage. The view of Nara Garden outside of the hotel is really nice! The room design was stylish and decent and most importantly, the room was so new and clean. We have got a set of breakfast with a choice of western style and Japanese style. Overall, the breakfast is greatly enough and delicious. This is my first time experience in this hotel. The hotel is not crowd so I really feel calm and peaceful during my stay which made me feel so relax! I am sure that I will be back this hotel when I am back to Nara!

Kanko Hotel Tamaru

Kanko Hotel Tamaru

Nara|0.68km from Mausoleum of Empress Ninshō
The hotel is very close to Nara Kintetsu Station and Nara Park Toda Temple is right next to it. It takes about5-10 minutes to walk. We are coming from Osaka, take JR to Nara Station and transfer to a taxi for 5 minutes. I think it is OK for 700 yen. Staying in one berth and two meals, dinner and breakfast are delicious ~ very satisfied with the meal! The check-in counter staff is not as kind and enthusiastic as other hot spring hotel staff... The only thing that feels bad is that although I forgot to inform the allergic food in advance (the counter said that I had to write to him three days in advance), I just asked him to remove it for me if he had it. I didn't ask him to hand over the dishes, but I was rejected. They were all on, telling me that I could choose not to eat. I was not very satisfied with this treatment, although he told me which dish was added shrimp... However, each of the women in the restaurant was very kind and enthusiastic. Since the counter told me that the meal could not be withdrawn, I asked the woman to tell me which dish had shrimp and I asked her to withdraw it, but the woman hurriedly apologized to me and said that I would make a new meal and then send it up. Although I said that I don’t have to bother you too much. I'm sorry...but they still kindly provide service, completely make up for the lack of reception staff at the counter, very satisfied with the meal. 4 stars for service to the restaurant staff! Plus, the hotel doesn't have an elevator... and carrying luggage at check-out is a disaster for me who lives on the 3rd floor.
Kasuga Hotel

Kasuga Hotel

Nara|1.08km from Mausoleum of Empress Ninshō
I was more interested in a nice hotel with a nice atmosphere in a good location every time I went sightseeing in Nara, so I stayed for the first time. Everywhere is very well maintained and although it is an old hotel, it was very comfortable. The room I booked is a renewed Japanese modern non-smoking twin. After all the air conditioner is new. It was a very hot day, but I was able to spend comfortably in the room. There is also a foot massage machine, so you can heal your tired legs from sightseeing. As for the lighting, I have something to tell the hotel a little. The large communal bath is not a hot spring, but it is well managed, comfortable and relaxing. The lobby has a drink server as a service for guests, which was really helpful in the hot season. I booked with breakfast and dinner, but the taste of Nara was very delicious and I enjoyed Nara sake. The location is close to Kintetsu Nara Station and close to tourist spots, so it is a place where you can return to the hotel and rest as soon as you get tired of sightseeing. Convenience stores, shopping streets and souvenir shops are also nearby, making it the best location. If I have a chance to go to Nara again, I definitely want to stay here. At that time, I would be happy if other rooms were renewed. I'm sure the rooms that have not been renewed are clean, but new equipment such as air conditioning and lighting is a condition for me to spend comfortably. I look forward to it.

Iroha Grand Hotel Kintetsu Nara Ekimae
4.8/5188 Reviews
Close to shopping streets and stations, within walking distance to museums and Todaiji Temple. There are supermarkets, convenience stores, drugstores, coffee shops downstairs...it is very convenient for travel and dining. The room size is ideal, the facilities are complete, and the soft and hard furnishings are all online. The only dissatisfaction during my stay: there was no advance notice of the fire drill. I woke up to the alarm in the morning. The first playback was in Japanese, which was completely incomprehensible and very embarrassing. The Indian front desk receptionist upon check-in should remind guests that there will be a fire drill the next morning. Judging from the reactions of other guests, they must have known about this beforehand.
Hotel Neiraku
4.2/536 Reviews
The location of the area is very good. It is next to Ruocao Park. In addition to self-check-in, it makes people feel that the head is big. The test of English is good. The price and service match. Health is also OK.
Tenpyo Ryokan
4/515 Reviews
The location is right in the shopping street and also at the Kintetsu exit, it is only 15 minutes to go to the park. The staff is warm and courteous, the hot springs are fine but quiet enough. The hotel is old but tidy, there is no daily necessities except old towels, including a blow dryer in the hot spring area, and there is nothing towels lock. Of course, this price can't be too much, remember this is a hotel. I was impressed by the invincible location and courteous staff, I can't say whether I like it or not.
Yuzan Guesthouse
4.6/525 Reviews
Before I joined my friends in Kyoto I spent a couple of days in Nara and stayed in this guesthouse. It's located on the edge of the old town and just a 5-minute walk from Kintetsu Nara station. The guesthouse is housed in a very traditional Japanese dwelling complex, ie you have to keep quiet if possible, as the walls aren't sound-proof. But I like this coz normally most cheap places to stay are full of noisy backpackers, but this isn't. I stayed in the dorm room, which is neat and clean. When I was there the host was doing experiment in pizza making so I tried a few slices of it, which tasted really good. The kitchen has almost everything so if you want to make your own meals it's possible. Highly recommend this place to anyone on the shoestrings yet looking for a decent place to stay.
Daibutsukan
4.3/50 Reviews
The location of the room is really consistent with the online reviews. You can see the deer on the balcony, especially when you walk in the morning and evening, you can get in touch with each other in front of the door. 5 minutes to go out, shopping, eating, parks, temples are all complete. It is worth mentioning that the room service is in place. The only drawback is that the check-out time is before 10 o'clock, and the overtime is 3840 yen/hour.
Hotel Hanakomichi
3.7/512 Reviews
The hotel is just a little bit south from Nara Kintetsu Station, very close. On the first floor of the hotel is the restaurant. If breakfast is included, you will eat there. It is very hearty. The clerk is very enthusiastic and nice. The single room I booked was not too big, but it was clean and comfortable. The bathroom may be a bit small, but for me, it is quite satisfactory. All in all, I spent 5 very enjoyable nights in Nara
