Overall experience was great! Clean, fantastic location, excellent customer service, free cultural activities, stayed in a private tatami room with private bed it was a great experience for us (they have private rooms with beds too). There’s a public bath, enjoyed the origami activity and cosmo play, did not get the chance to do calligraphy. 10 minutes walk from nearest train station, very central location, well equipped shared kitchen facilities if you want to heat up or prepare meals. Very close to deer park (it’s a huge park), right next to Sarusawa pond which you can enjoy while having coffee at starbucks (lovely starbucks location) . I think this property is in high demand so if your dates are available, book it!

Nara has a lot going on.

Nara has a lot going on. Lots of wonderful food, decent shopping and the Park is huge! There is way more to the park that is initially revealed in tourism blogs. We really loved early morning walks thought the park without the crowds. We spent 3 days there, and felt like it was perfect.

Nara is my favorite place in Japan.

Nara is my favorite place in Japan. It has really beautiful natural environment, lovely deer that you can easily see while walking on the street, and very friendly people. It has played a very important role in Japanese history (e.g. Horyuji, Toshodaija, etc. are important world heritage sites), but it does not have that many visitors as Kyoto, which makes traveling in Nara a lot more pleasant than travelling in Kyoto. I highly recommend people to travel to southern part of Nara Prefecture (e.g. Horyuji, Asuka-dera, Tsubosaka-dera, Oka-dera, etc.).

I didn’t check closing times of temples and it was hard to determine the last buses back from further out locations. I did end up having a nice evening walk along a riverside to find a train station to come back into town.

Nara is beautiful.

Nara is beautiful. There are two UNESCO world heritage sites and lots of deer. If you are afraid of animals, I don't recommend it. The deer will follow you if you have food and they may try to take it from you if you hesitate or don't gently push them away. They are not, as a general rule, aggressive. A lot of tourists freak out and just throw their crackers. Don't do that. Stay calm. The deer don't want to hurt you, they just want a snack. They don't care for being pet either. Just snap your crackers (200 yen sold at different stands) into 3-4 pieces, hold out your hand flat and let them take it from you. Be aware of how many are around you. They will surround and nibble your clothing. I found this hilarious. I grew up with cows and they will pretty much do the same thing. Use your voice and be gentle. The one day bus pass is really useful. I wish I had more time in Nara.

Nara Koen (park) is a beautiful place.

Nara Koen (park) is a beautiful place. Todaiji and Kasuga Kaisha is located nearby. The Sarusawa Ike (pond) behind the Nara Park leads to shopping place. One can spend whole day around Nara. - Beware of the deer, they might get a bit aggressive when offering food. - It gets crowded during on-season.

I love the deer and the ambiance of Nara.

I love the deer and the ambiance of Nara. Arrive early and expect crowds. As with anything else, the further you walk from the main area, you can stumble across more peaceful and secluded places. I would avoid Nara on the weekend, if possible. Deer can be friendly (and bow politely to ask for a treat) or aggressive (grabbing items out of your bag, biting your clothing, or being over-zealous). Keep your crackers high or out of sight and feel free to walk away from deer that are not vibing.

The location was great. 10 minutes walk to Nara station and right next to one of Nara Parks temples. We had a smooth check-in experience with door codes to our rooms and the front door. We did not meet anyone in the hotel or the front desk. The room was huge, with a separate toilet/bathroom and the big window in the bathroom was nice.

Excellent location, adjacent to the square of the train station and Nara Park, yet the rooms are quiet. Efficient staff, most but not all speak English. Pleasant onsen. Every evening, we received a delicious hot pot soup in the dining room. Several laundry and drying machines. Luggage delivery service from the hotel.
