Excellent hotel for Western visitors.
I wish I could stay in this hotel every night of my trip to Japan. Rooms were spacious and nicely appointed. Bed was comfortable and the amenities were spectacular. Dinner buffet was delicious. Short 10 minute walk to the train station.

So totally okay for visiting Nara. Quiet and away from the action but imo worth it. Fantastic hotel and amenities to reset Washer and dryer on site too for fellow 1 bag travelers

Top hotel but bit out of the way. But after doing a ton of walking and the sensory overload in Tokyo and Osaka it’s nice to chill out here for a few days and relax before kicking on again.
Sean, 5-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great clean property, very quiet, not too many people, a bit far from the Nara (20-30mins) walking. Very modern and I enjoyed my stay. I recommend !

Amazing luxury hotel
Every thing was luxurious here. Room was large and comfortable. Shower has perfect temperature and the rain shower head is so good. Amenities include glass bottles of mineral water and coffee and pajamas. It’s a block from the bus stop that takes you straight to Nara. Would definitely stay here again if I plan on going to feed the deers.

JR奈良駅と近鉄大和西大寺駅からシャトルバスが運行しているので便利。大和西大寺駅からだと京都、大阪にも30分ちょっとくらいで行くことができます。大阪京都と比べると圧倒的に安い価格で泊まれるので、関西旅行の拠点としてぴったり。 客室やロビー、レストランが大変綺麗でお洒落です。特にロビーのバースペースは、色鮮やかに光る行燈があって、写真を撮りたくなります。 レストランはディナーブッフェの出来立て窯焼きピザが美味しいです。ルーフトップバーは奈良の街並みを一望できて、特に夕焼け、夜景が素晴らしい。 スタッフの皆様にも親切にしていただき、とても快適な滞在でした！
