For a love hotel, the aesthetic is not too sketchy. it felt pretty equatorial. I like that I could have a drink brought up to my room 24/7. The staff is friendly (at least the one I met). The sound isolation is decent, I only heard cleaning noise in the near room in the morning, though I'm unsure if I had neighbors. The room is spacious and the ceiling high. It's a change from usual Japanese hotel rooms. I appreciate the wooden vibes. The AC is strong so the room cools down and warms up pretty fast. Amazing black out windows at night. No bad smell. a little Jacuzzi. I recommend if you have hard time dealing with tiny hotel rooms in Japan and don't mind taking taking back and forth.

As the major cities in Japan become larger and more...
As the major cities in Japan become larger and more identical to each other, they also become a little difficult for tourists to manage easily and feel at home in. But Nara has retained the feel it had when I was last there, half a century ago. Back then I said it was the favourite city, along with Kyoto, of any I visited in Japan. Right now I say it is STILL my favourite city, and in the 21st century it has left Kyoto well behind. If I were spending a week in the Kansai area, I would base myself in Nara in preference to Osaka or any of the "majors", and do day trips everywhere else. You will save on accommodation, for a start!

The Todaiji temple and the Kofuku-ji Buddhist temple next to...
The Todaiji temple and the Kofuku-ji Buddhist temple next to it are a must-see. The museum was okay. The Isui-en Wisteria garden was okay too but it was too crowded because the flowers were in bloom. There are a number of restaurants and cafes on the street from the Nara Station to Nara Park.
Walking from Hotel Nikko/Nara Station to Nara Park and walking to all the attractions nearby was very tiring. So, I may recommend taking the bus on the way back, if possible. Also, it suddenly started raining in the afternoon and luckily, I had an umbrella with me.
I wished I had more time to see some of the other attractions outside of the Nara Park.

This was the most welcome I felt of our entire trip. The staff were incredibly helpful and kind. If you could choose any hotel for your vacation this has to be the one because it will be your favorite. The food and staff were my favorites. The room was clean and comfy and they even had buckwheat pillows!

The best advice I can give is find where the biggest crowds are massed, all trying to impress deer with the same rice crackers that everyone else is trying to feed them, then pick a direction and walk away from them. There is so much more to the park: primeval forests, ancient stone pathways leading to temples and small villages older than most of our own countries, hidden pockets of lost time. It is hard to explain how it feels to not have another human being in sight, finding yourself passing stone idols carved by people hundreds of years ago, only to see a deer eating moss from the base of said idol that stops chewing to literally bow to you. Of course you bow back and scramble in your bag for some kind of treat to offer your new best friend (I recommend unsalted pretzel sticks, the deer hate plain rice crackers as much as we do at this point) and then having it gently eat from the palm of your hand, before you both again swap polite bows and go on your merry way. Then you hear a crow sing from the ancient forest behind you, and you just know: this is pretty cool.

Nice place, parks, plenty of temples, huge Buddha statues, a little ride by train and you can see the oldest still standing wooden building in the world!
And of course the deer! Feeding the deer with the deer cookies is fun and a little scary as they are quite bold and can pull and push you a bit.
Good food available as well.

If you are tired of seeing crowded with tourists cities,...
If you are tired of seeing crowded with tourists cities, come to Nara and start exploring the city. It’s a beautiful city that has so much more to offer with affordable prices. I fell in love with deers and all that Nara has to offer.
Comfortable, modern and spacious hotel and room in a central location a few minutes walk from Kintetsu Nara station. The hotel sits conveniently at the border between Nara Park with its great temples, and the area of shops and restaurants around the train station. It sits besides a busy road, but with the windows closed this is no bother at all and our stay was quiet and relaxed. We recommend the breakfast, both the Japanese and the Western options are great.
Staff were great, professional, very helpful and warm.
The location is superb. Less than 5 min from Kintetsu Nara Station. Breakfgast, whether Western or Japanese is very good. Service and friendliness is absolutely tops. The inside Onsen warm bath9is an extra bonus I treas1ure very much. Rooms are "roomy" and in a quiet street. Wifi works fine everywhere. You can order dinner served "in your room" and this is a true experience. I have used this hotel many times over more than 10 years!
The receptionist was super nice even though I was 5 minutes late to check in since I got lost navigating train stations. The room itself was spacious, clean, and I personally slept well on the bed there. I also walked to Nara Park from the hotel, so it's at a good location. This place was definitely one of my favorite stays in my 2 week Japan trip and it was probably one of the lowest-costing ones too.
The location of the hotel is excellent. Within walking distance to a mall where we can find lots of food and shops. The station is just nearby. Nara Park was also walking distance. The hotel service was excellent, they were able to accomodate to last minute changes to change to Western Room for my mom who was having difficulty standing up from the bed. Excellent customer service!!!
Staff was professional, helpful and friendly-also spoke great English. Traditional Japanese breakfast was presented so beautifully and there was more than enough food. Rooms were spacious and comfortable. Location is walling distance to most sights and right next door to bus and train stations. We will be back and will certainly stay with the Nikko Nara facility/staff again.
I cannot over emphasize how incredibly helpful, kind, and professional the staff are at this hotel. They went above and beyond the call of duty to assist me. The hotel is clean and efficient and it is in the perfect location to walk to shops, restaurants, and Nara Park. Even though the rooms are very compact, and the beds are a bit on the firmer side, it is an excellent value.
Rooms are quite small but ok for a short stay . No shoes allowed throughout hotel.
Staff very helpful and pleasant. Walking distance from all to see in Nara.
Good to have a vending machine and microwave on each floor to use.
The Onsen was fantastic.
We didn't try breakfast but it looked popular. Shops open close by if you want a cheaper option.
A beautiful hotel with wonderfully comfortable and characterful rooms, a very generous minibar, and a great location in central Nara. Special shout out to the service: we felt so welcome whilst we were staying there, and when we left (and left something really important behind!) the hotel staff moved heaven and earth to get it back to us.
Japanese style hotel, relaxing atmosphere, both Japanese and western style breakfasts were of excellent quality. Access to late afternoon drinks and snacks whilst overlooking hotel garden was a bonus and a great way to relax after exploring Nara. Location is quiet once all day tourists have gone and is close to Nara Park.
Excellent location on quiet back street between train station and Nara Park. Easy walking to everything. Staff (via online) were extremely helpful when we asked to stay a third night. Rooms are larger than a hotel and super well laid out and comfortable. We look forward to staying here again in the future.
Nara is a very small town with limited western accommodations - this was a great choice. English was limited at the front desk so we had challenges communicating although they tried very hard to be helpful. Location was ideal in the center of town walking distance from restaurants and bus stop.
It's probably one of the best hotels in Nara.
It's right beside the train station and a 15-minute walk from the park
The onsen was amazing and was open until midnight to relax after a big walking day.
The beds were super comfortable.
Great value for money..
Everything! The location, the staff, the design of the hotel and the rooms - they were spacious, comfortable, clean and well maintained. This hotel is great value for money and we do highly recommend it for everyone who wants to stay in Nara.
The room was clean and spacious. The staff were nice and helpful! There are two hotel Asyl in Nara. This one is “Annex”. I arrived at Christmas night to the wrong location and the staff were really a big help to reach to the “Annex” hotel.
Modern, spotless hotel right next to JR Nara station with helpful staff. There is a convenience store on the ground floor and restaurants and shops very close by. Access to buses - including to the temples, is also very close.
The hotel was within walking distance of tourist attractions and restaurants. The staff were friendly and helpful. The room was larger than we expected. We felt very relaxed and had a fabulous time in Nara.
