"This hotel is beautiful, with comfortable and clean rooms, wonderful public baths and great service. It is just minutes away from Horyuji temple. We would definitely stay there again, hopefully for more than 1 night!"
"Truly wonderful experience. The outdoor bath was a gem and the staff treated us exceptionally well. A warm, welcoming environment. Highly recommend. "
"I chose this ryokan since it was the only reasonably priced one in the Nara area. It has a beautiful garden just outside our room and the room itself was comfortable and large. The only downside to the place was the strong smell in the room and the cockroach that I had to kill as it crawled across the room."
"This is a very authentic Japanese hotel and appeared to be mostly Japanese tourists. The dinner buffet had very loud live performance and the audience was definitely into it. There's an onsen at this hotel and a pool. The pool closes early and opens late so heads up. We didn't really pay attention to where the hotel was. It's about a 45 minute train from the Nara Park, we may have booked a closer place if we'd known, but for the experience of staying at this hotel it was pretty much worth...
"The hotel has great ammenities and the room service options have a ton of variety. It was nice having a massage chair and jacuzzi tub in the room. It was the largest room my husband and I stayed in throughout our travels in Japan as well."
"Super friendly staff, in a magical place in the deer park surrounded by nature, some great little shops, shrines, and animals. Nara was the absolute highlight of my trip to Japan and this Inn was a dream to stay at. We loved our time here. "

"Check in - friendly, helpful, moves fast enough. Sauna opens on check in, so its not full in the afternoon but busy at night
Rooms - clean and nice. We had the 2 singles and 1 queen, and it was like a 2 bedroom suite. Rooms are not big, so if you have a lot of luggage, it will be tight. But, they use the space very very well, with a lot of convenient extras (i.e, baskets for your sauna trip, water and snacks in fridge, cubbies)
Food
Breakfast buffet is great. Well stocked buffet doesn’t fun out of food. Japanese section is the best. Coffee machine and drinks are great. Free yogurt drink in the morning in the relaxation room, free ice cream in the afternoon.
Location
Near Kyoto Station, you can walk from there to the hotel. Lots of shopping and restaurants nearby. A Don Quiote is minutes away.
Other
No shoes in the hotel. They clean your luggage wheels before you check in. This can be getting used it.

"Very friendly staff and beautiful location. You can easily get to Umeda/Osaka Station (15 mins north) or Yodoyabashi Station (10 mins south) which will take you anywhere you need. Executive bar access is awesome!
Pro tip: Go to CoDeli for drinks and snacks rather than the FamilyMart or Lawson so you can save a little."
"This is one of only 2 places I stay when in Umeda. The other is the Club rooms at the Granvia, the respire has no Club room available. Clean and very convenient to the train station, eats and shopping. Stay here and let me know what you think!"
"Amazing hotel! Great food and has a ton of amenities. My only complaint is how hot the weather was and no a/c in the main lobby areas. Loved every other bit!"
"Good location & nice environment. Would be great if coin laundry is available & room clean-up be more thoughtful, like not repeatedly giving us more & more toiletries that we did not use. Having said, overall speaking it’s still very good. "
