I had a great night here. the futon was incredibly comfortable and I enjoyed cooking in the shared kitchen! The only downside was a slight smell in the room after check-in. Would definitely stay again!

spacious room

beautiful view

bathroom odor

The Japanese-Style Superior Room offered an authentic tatami experience with a big window showcasing a stunning view of the pagoda. The room remained spotless throughout my stay, and the air conditioning kept it comfortable during hotter times. The on-site visitor center provided engaging activities like origami sessions, enhancing my experience. Using the shared kitchen allowed me to prepare simple meals, which was a nice touch. One minor inconvenience was the slight odor in the bathroom, which detracted a bit from the otherwise enjoyable experience. The location made it easy to explore nearby temples and shops, although the 15-20 minute walk from the train station might be challenging for some guests. Overall, a memorable stay with a blend of traditional and modern amenities.

The hand-washing basin being separate from the bathroom is inconvenient!!! A more modern design would improve the overall aesthetic experience!!!

Loved the spacious Japanese-style room with air conditioning, a private bathroom, and tatami flooring. The public bath was a lovely addition. Enjoyed the big windows with a great view. Amenities like the refrigerator and flat-screen TV made it feel like home. Plus, the shared kitchen was super convenient.

The Japanese-Style Superior Room was spacious and featured authentic tatami flooring. The stunning view of the pagoda in the morning, along with the peaceful ambiance of hearing bells from Kofukuji Temple, made the stay exceptionally enjoyable. The location is perfect for exploring Nara Park and nearby attractions.
