Top Shohaku Art Museum Hotel Reviews

Novotel Nara

8/10 Good

"The hotel is in a great location and very modern. The buffet breakfast has way more options than one needs. The flavor was a bit lacking in most of the food. I will say their plant based broth was the best I ever had. I also recommend eating at せっちゃん a nine seat chef experience. Less expensive than most of the restaurants in the area."

Hotel Nikko Nara

10/10 Excellent

"Very convenient location & high quality service. I only wish they open their restaurant a little longer!"

JW Marriott Hotel Nara

10/10 Excellent

"The staff members were wonderful: Lester and Jonathan/Check - in very quick & Silk Road Dining staff breakfast with on point! The only thing could be better was the one hour swimming time & having to make a reservation for it. That was strange and awkward. My phone was a problem and I was sure if it went through!"

Nara Royal Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Best staff of all the hotels during the 2 weeks in Japan. The Onsen is excellent as well. Wish we could have stayed longer than 1 night!"

Shiroyama inn

10/10 Excellent

"A small inn ran by an old couple; I didn't see much of the husband, he seemed to be busy doing various tasks around the property. The wife was a kind lady, who will help you easily if you need it, she also has a decent grasp of English so you shouldn't need much google translate, especially if you know a bit if Japanese yourself. "

Hotel SINDAI

10/10 Excellent

"The room is very clean"

HOTEL ESSOR - Adult Only

10/10 Excellent

"Near the Nara ruins, in room sauna and jacuzzi a plus"

HOTEL ROCCO - Adults Only

8/10 Good

"Room is old but clean, it's typical love hotel style. In room dining is available. You can use the payment ATM nxt to the door before checkout to settle by cash or card, instructions are in Japanese. Per usual love hotel you will be locked in once you are in the room, dial 9 and ask staff to open door if you need to leave the room. Car park is on level 1, you need to use stairs to get to room passing the reception. Hotel is on a slope so it's a bit challenging to stop and ask for instructions when we arrive. Other than that the staff are very helpful and they had instructions already translated in English printed for tourists who do not know the system. Room is large and toiletries are amazing and ladies can even use hair curler and other products. Overall good value and comfortable for 1-2 nights if you don't mind the style of stay."

Nara Park Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"All good"
