"Great spot for staying a night or two directly in the Nara Park. This allowed us to get up early and have basically the whole park to ourselves before the tourist groups arrive. Would definititely recommend it!
The room was nice and clean, the staff was friendly and the location was perfect."
"Wonderful traditional Japanese hotel (ryokan) with hot bath downstairs. We saw so many beautiful Sakura trees on our trip but the most amazing Sakura was right outside of this hotel. Just jaw dropping! Really enjoyed our walks down the stone stairs to the small city, beautiful views and beautiful place. We even liked it more than Kyoto, so quite and authentic :) will be back!"
"The property seems to be recently updated, it is modern, and clean. The amenity is lacking a few things (for example, it tells the guest to wash dishes and put them away but doesn’t provide a clothe to dry them). Also, the instruction isn’t super clear. The instruction reads to leave the key on the table when checking out (that’s what it says literary in English), when in fact you need to lock and put the key in the lockbox as one example. Also the road to access the property is quite narrow...
"Very nice quiet hotel that is big with good aurrounding ammenities. Would stay again! (No staff at this hotel its self check in so staff area not ranked) "
"Truly wonderful experience. The outdoor bath was a gem and the staff treated us exceptionally well. A warm, welcoming environment. Highly recommend. "

Novotel Nara
10/10 Excellent
"Great location, fabulous breakfast, love the rooftop bar. Will definitely stay here again."
"The facilities were very modern and clean, and the staff was very attentive and helpful. We will certainly decide to stay at the JW Marriott Hotel Nara again in the future."
"I walked here from the Ikoma station, it was a great ~half hour hike with what felt like around 350-ish meters of elevation gain.
The ryokan has a nice vibe to it. The hot tub was nice too"
"Far walk for us and dinner is exotic and different. But absolutely beautiful place. Clean and amazing private onsen. We loved the gift shop and they gave us robes to use. Breakfast buffet excellent. Overall wonderful visit, would recommend and wish i can go again someday. "
"It was an old building that was okay but not well-maintained. The staff were very helpful, kind, and friendly, despite their limited English. The great bonus was the onsen (hot spring). The room was very big—almost three times the size of other rooms we stayed in during our visit to Japan. However, the location was not good at all, being next to a busy highway and very far from the old town or Nara Park."
