Give this one a miss
A drab and beige hotel, with mediocre to bad food and completely non-English speaking staff. Good location but that’s literally all that it has going for it. Way too expensive for what it offers. Would not stay there again.

Great Location , staff were friendly and helpful.
The staff was very professional, friendly and helpful. They had a spa which was really great after a days of sightseeing. The hotel is right next to the station, and you could walk to the main tourist sights. Great location.

Clean small hotel in Nara
It's a new hotel in front of JR Nara Station (in a secondary street), so has many local bus lines. The hotel is very clean and spacious. Like most Japanese hotel, it provides a small spa too.

8/10 Very good

Location of this hotel couldn't be better: just steps away from Nara JR station. The staff were friendly and accommodating, although their English skills are not particularly strong. The breakfast buffet was good (though very much to a Japanese palate), the room was clean, and check in and out was quick and easy. The biggest surprise is that while I made a reservation for 3 people (2 adults and 1 child), the room had one double bed! Needless to say it was a very tight squeeze for all of us, and there is no way a cot could've been added to the room. We were also somewhat shocked to see that people with tattoos would be asked not to use the sento (public bath/spa). It seems a rather outdated rule in 2018, particularly if being open to an international clientele. That said, I'd stay there again, but would definitely ensure we booked a larger room.

Great Place
Very nice place. The bed is comfortable, the shower worked great, it was quiet and conveniently located right by the train station. Desk staff was as helpful as they could be given a language barrier. One of them used a google app to try to explain things to me by having it change what he wrote into English. Breakfast was full of options, both Western and Japanese, and very tasty. There was an option for an onsen, but I spent the evening instead focusing on doing laundry. Their machines work well, and one machine both washes and dries afterward! About the only thing I didn't like was a strange smell in the bathroom that was like someone had eaten Japanese food and it was still there. Despite having the fan running, it hung around. I don't know where it was coming from, because everything was very clean. I would stay here again.
