We enjoyed our stay family of 4. We booked room with bathroom and shower. They have a great manga collection and local craft beers available. We enjoyed the community spaces and its steps away from train station. Located close to Nara park and temples. Great price. Breakfast was included staff was helpful and very nice.

The hotel’s location, close to Nara Station and within walking distance of tourist attractions, is fantastic. As it was originally a bakery, the cookies provided in the room and the bread served at breakfast were delicious. The room was spotlessly clean, and the staff were attentive, making for a very satisfying stay. I think it’s the perfect hotel for solo travelers.
Hotel is very conveniently located near to Kintetsu station and short walking distance from all sights.
Room was clean, breakfast good and staff friendly.
10/10 in every aspect. Very welcoming and provided a clean room as well as delicious breakfast each morning. We stayed longer than most and we're glad we chose them!
We loved staying at this property. The room was lovely and well sized compared to our experience across Japan.
The staff were amazingly friendly and really helpful.
The breakfast that was provided was simple, but was wonderfully tasty and perfect for what we needed.
The surrounding area was within walking distance and very convenient to the shopping district as well as to the park.
One of our favourite stays in Japan, and a great value for money.
This was a very cute property near to the central shopping area of Nara and to Nara Park. The major tourist attractions are in easy walking distance, and of course I loved the easy access to all the restaurants and shopping.
The included breakfast is a brick toast with a choice of butter, jam, red bean, or egg salad, with a salad and coffee. It's a very tasty breakfast but not especially heavy.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
This place was perfect for me. The room was small but had everything I needed. They provided tea and a welcome cookie. The complimentary breakfast provided a great start to my day as well. Front desk staff are so very helpful and kind. And you can’t beat the location. Very convenient.
Great place to stay, very close to Kintetsu-Nara train station. Lots of places nearby to eat nearby. A short walk to the park.
Breakfast and coffee in the morning was very nice.
Our only negative point, our room (201) did smell of smoke quite strongly. We believe it was above the smoking room downstairs.
Overall a great stay and would recommend highly.
I couldn’t recommend this place more. The staff are so friendly and kind and the room I had was amazing! Having the restaurant downstairs was so nice and they have great food and shaved ice. It was so close to Nara park (about 5 min walk) and is on a cute shopping street which leads to Nakatanidou. It was also right next to Kintetsu-Nara station. Even with all of the things next to it it was quiet and cozy. Overall 10/10 amazing.
Cute semi-traditional Japanese room walking distance from Nara Park and literally a minute from the Nara station of the Kintetsu line. Spacious room (relative to typical Japanese hotel rooms). Kind staff! Note that check in is only until 11pm. We were late but lucky the receptionist heard our cries and he had not left yet for the night.
The hotel is in a great location close to the park, temples, shrines, restaurants, shops and the train station. The breakfast toast and salad were delicious. It’s a cozy hotel. I would stay there again !
Check-in was a breeze. The location is fantastic, and the breakfast each morning was even better. Should I return to Nara this will absolutely be my first choice of places to stay again!

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
Was the worst night’s sleep I had in Japan on my honeymoon, the bed firm, the sheets thin, the shower claustrophobic, the TV in our room was 16 years old, it did not support WiFi let alone streaming apps.
The “breakfast” is just a cup of coffee, a salad consisting of garnishes, and a choice of a dollop of jam, beans, or egg salad on lightly-toasted buttered bread.
I implore you to stay somewhere else.
I loved this hotel. It's so central for the deer park and fantastic restaurants, cafes and the train station. Breakfast was delicious. I highly recommend it.
Very nice and comfortable staying in centre of Nara, close to many restaurants and shops and Nara Park. The staff was great, good breakfast and clean and wide rooms.
