Great hotel for the price. Staff was very kind. I would stay here again and recommend it. It is clean and comfortable. Good basic hotel with laundry machines. Good neighborhood, walkable to all Nara attractions. Did not like the bedding material.

Great Location
For budget Japan Hotels this place is actually fairly spacious. It's not the most comfortable but it's easy access to some of the top sights in Nara make it worth it especially for one night.

Hotel provides a well spread of traditional Japanese and Western breakfast buffet. Free public bath nearby hotel but have to bring own towel. Thus, never bother to go and try out the public bath. Nearby Nara Park and shopping streets. However, about 20min walk from JR station if you are using JR pass. Check in and out process were easy and fast. There is a cosy reading corner at lobby level with free coffee n tea dispensers and foot massage.

Hotel is close to everything
Hotel is nicely situated, and close to all the local shops, restaurants, temples, and transportations (JR and Kintetsu). With Nara being one of my favorite cities in Japan, the Hotel Sunroute is exceeding my expectations. Will definitely go back.

Convenient location and great bargain
I stayed in a single room, which was reasonably sized for Japan and a definite bargain for the price I paid. The central shopping/restaurant street is a 7 minute walk and the Nara Kintetsu is 17min (with luggage). Walking distance to all the main attractions. Free coffee/hot drink dispenser in the lobby. I received a single free pass to one of any 4 local onsen (hor water bath house).

Great location
The hotel is in a great location next to the Nara Deer Park. We could see the 5-story pagoda of the Kofukuji Temple from our room on the 5th floor. It is the second tallest pagoda in Japan at 50 meters. The front desk staff was very helpful and kind. One very nice woman told us of a special celebration happening the evening we checked in to the hotel. It was a rare event that celebrates the completion of the Kasuga Taisha Shrine that is torn down and rebuilt every 20 years. It was spectacular! The next day, she gave us an oragami deer for our 6 mo. old grandson. She also gave us a postcard of the hotel and some oragami Autumn leaves to take home. There is a coffee/tea/hot cocoa machine in the lobby that is available during set times and is free. The breakfast was very good. Both Japanese and Western foods were on the buffet. The only complaint is that there were bus groups at the hotel both nights and they were at breakfast before the opening time, so these groups got seated for breakfast first and others had to wait for 20-30 minutes to get seated..

Reasonably priced. Clean, comfortable. Building is modern and well maintained and managed. Did not notice any noise. About three blocks off the main street. Near the temple area. Within walking distance of train statilons. Sunroute is a chain.

Not what we expected!
This hotel was in a great location. However, we had booked 4 non smoking rooms and all the rooms reeked of smoke. The carpets had large stains on them. The beds were as hard as rocks and the pillows felt like bags of ball bearings! We were seven women travelling together and we were all very disappointed. We later discovered that one floor above our rooms had recently been renovated (these were the rooms we had booked) but we weren't offered these until our last night so didn't bother to move. The hotel advertised free Wifi - but this wasn't in the bedrooms, only in the lobby and we were only allowed 15 mins internet access at a time!
