Piazza Hotel Nara

Piazza Hotel Nara

8/10 Good
"Located basically attached to the main Nara train station, and walkable to the main area with lots of food and shopping options. You can walk to Nara Park from here but it’s a bit far if you aren’t up for a good walk. Staff was ok based on limited interactions, this hotel was good for a place to crash after being out and about, and nice and close to the train station."

"Beautiful location, amazing hotel - the rooms were clean, well appointed - live the bathrooms setup - bed super comfortable. We ordered breakfast for the second night - yummy Japanese meal set. This was our favorite hotel in our stay, well appointed hope to return. You need a car because it is remote from public transport, plenty of free parking at the same level as hotel. The staff was wonderful! This place is well worth a journey!"
