The bath has a fantastic view over Nara, the property is nestled amongst some of the most beautiful scenery I’ve ever seen, our room was very cozy, and the breakfast in the morning left us full and satisfied.

Onyado Nono Nara Natural Hot Spring

10/10 Excellent

Piazza Hotel Nara

8/10 Good

"Overall everything was great, except the room doesn’t have a night light or floor light can leave on while you are sleeping. We left the ceiling light on in toilet while we are sleeping, but it’s too bright shine through the glass from bathroom, we didn’t get to sleep at all, that’s one thing I hope the hotel can fix it. We were enjoyed our stay, hopefully the problem can be solved, and I will bring my family and grandchildren to visit and stay again."
