It's a 5-8 minute walk from Kintetsu Station, at the end of the commercial street, very quiet, and very close to attractions. There is Starbucks downstairs, there is a platform on the second floor to enjoy the scenery, and there is a small large bath downstairs. Although Nara is small, it is very convenient for traveling with parents and you can come back to rest at noon. It is hygienic and clean. It is recommended to prepare breakfast by yourself. The hotel is also booked from outside.

First of all, the location is so good... I almost decided to go near Jr Nara Station at first, but I almost regretted it... The Kintetsu Nara Line is close to tourist spots, so make sure to get there near here!
The view of the lake while resting on the hotel's second floor veranda was so beautiful and clean.
It's a pity that there is no breakfast, but there is a sauna and the water is clean.
There is Heungboksa Temple right next to it, but the downside is that the bell rings at around 5:58 in the morning and wakes you up.
Other than that it was perfect.

It is right next to Sarusawa Pond and Kofukuji Temple, and very close to Kintetsu Station and the commercial street. The teahouse at Zhetai offers a view of Sarusawa Pond, but the drinks are mediocre. Breakfast is a sushi bento, which is very unique.

The location is really good and excellent, and the scenery outside the hotel is also very good
But the hotel is really not that good, especially if you have children, you should consider it before staying! After all, it is difficult to control your time with children. There are too many special circumstances. Anyone traveling with children knows this, especially those aged 2 to 3 years old.
The room requires check-out before 10 o'clock. If you exceed the time, an additional fee of 3,000 yen will be charged.
The breakfast provided by the hotel is a very simple Western-style set meal
There is a Starbucks downstairs, so you can consider going there. After all, the indoor dining area is average and the outdoor scenery is first-rate.
The tatami room is generally hygienic. When you step in, the floor is sticky and the room has a bit of a smell. The air conditioner is on the floor, and it blows directly on your head when you sleep... Oh, it's just uncomfortable.
The faucet for bathing is the kind that only presses the button to release water (the water output time is one minute). After taking a bath, I forget how many times I have to press it.
The washbasin is equipped with a sensor faucet. Alas, washing is tiring.
The hot spring is just a big bathing pool, very simple and the experience is average.
Service: No free bottled water

It's really good.
First of all, the location is in front of the lake and there is a Starbucks on the first floor.
Tourist attractions and stations are all close by.
The accommodation is clean and the bathroom is nice.
The staff are really friendly.
S.KIM staff is available to assist you in Korean.

Access was convenient and I was able to enjoy Nara even more than before. The room is clean, there are many restaurants nearby, and there is perfect access to tourist attractions such as World Heritage Sites and Nara Park. The large public bath is also clean and has extra amenities, which is nice. The terrace and room had a panoramic view of Sarusawa Pond, and the morning sun was amazing. The hotel also has a cafe and a terrace, making it a hotel that values relaxation.This time, tickets are available only for guests, and you can experience it together with the Shikayose, which is open to the public, making it a very meaningful and luxurious Nara experience. It was a great time.

The hotel is located on the banks of Sarusawa Pond, making it extremely convenient for sightseeing in Nara. Actually, I've been to this area many times, and I've also been to the Starbucks underneath the hotel, but I didn't know about this hotel💦 This time I was invited and found out about it, so I'm really glad we got to know each other. 🙌 The lobby is decorated with all kinds of art, and it's fun just looking at it! The rooms are also decorated with calligraphy by monks, calligraphers, and artists related to Nara, and the lamps and shoji screens are made of Uda washi paper. You can come into contact with all kinds of things in Nara, such as seats and tables made of Yoshino cedar~🌲 From my room, I can see Sarusawa Pond and the five-storied pagoda, which makes me feel like I'm on a trip to Nara~🏯 Just this view. But it's so luxurious~✨ The room is so spacious and the big fluffy bed is irresistible~🛏 There was a separate toilet and shower in the room, but there was no bath.💦 However, there was a large public bath in the basement and it was clean as well. It was spacious and warm. Guests can receive a welcome drink at the cafe on the 2nd floor. However, you can take it to your room or drink it on the terrace, so of course it's the terrace. You can see Sarusawa Pond and the five-storied pagoda from the terrace, and we had a relaxing and luxurious time drinking coffee. And of course, the location ✨ The surrounding area is full of tourist spots and delicious places, so you can go see the five-story pagoda and Kofukuji Temple, play with deer, visit delicious Spanish restaurants and cafes, and your stomach and heart will be full of happiness 🍀 Such a nice hotel in such a nice area I can't believe it happened! ! 😲 It's cheap, it's nice even when it snows, and it's great for sightseeing in Nara.

We decided on this because of the location and being able to spend time on the terrace. It's about an 8 minute walk to Nara National Museum, and if you walk a little further you'll be close to Todaiji Temple. I think it's a good location for walking and sightseeing around the area, and the roads along the way are very atmospheric. The staff were all very friendly and made me feel comfortable. In particular, the female staff member who realized that I didn't properly understand the free drinks at the cafe and explained it to me was very kind. After checking in, I went out to the terrace and sat and enjoyed the view of Sarusawa Pond and Kofukuji Temple in front of me, and it felt very luxurious. There is a Starbucks on the first floor of the building, so it is possible to take the drinks you buy there to the terrace. The hotel room is clean and quiet at night as there are no tourists nearby. The interior was stylish and the room was spacious. When you open the window shoji, you will see a three-storied pagoda right in front of you. However, I woke up at 6am to the sound of the temple bell. Well, that's the real thrill of Nara, isn't it? The public bath is small, but since I was using it on weekdays, I was lucky to be able to use it privately. It was also fun to be able to choose shampoo. Although there is no restaurant that serves breakfast or dinner, we were able to order a breakfast bento box that seemed to be outsourced when making a reservation. This was very delicious and a great choice. There are many delicious restaurants nearby for dinner, so I didn't have any problems. There is also a drink vending machine in the basement, and there is a convenience store nearby, so you won't have to worry if you don't have much luggage. I was satisfied with the perfect service and clean rooms and bedding. There are some things to keep in mind if you are visiting by car. Only the paid parking lot affiliated with the hotel was difficult. On Saturdays and Sundays, there is a zone that becomes a pedestrian paradise, so you can only get there from an extremely narrow road. I had researched this in advance, so I was using a small light car and everything was fine, but I wonder what would have happened if it had been a car with number 3. Next time I visit, I will use another parking lot or take the train.
