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.

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.

Hotel muito novo ( acabou de inaugurar!), com boa localização e fácil acesso à estação central e pontos de interesse turístico, com estação de metrô e parada de ônibus muito próximas. Ótimas instalações, decoração moderna e elegante, quarto confortável, roupas de cama e banho premium, amenities e o tradicional e confortável pijama (tradição nos bons hotéis japoneses). Onsen agradável. Café da manhã com boas opções, num local muito agradável, mas devido a inauguração recente penso que necessite alguns ajustes. Staff cordial, atencioso e resolutivo.
