A lovely old hotel with lots of history. Probably our favourite stay during our Japan trip. In the old wing the walls are a bit thin so soundproofing is not perfect but that's the price you pay for the hotel's history and character. Wonderful breakfasts and impeccable service.

A very special place adjacent to Nara Park. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The breakfast was amazing and delicious. A very comfortable bed and spacious room. There is also a free bus shuttle service between the hotel and the train station.

Stayed in a traditional Japanese room. Very comfortable. Breakfast was included, we picked the Japanese breakfast, and it was delicious. The only downsides were that you had to pick a time before 7 PM to have your futons set out, and you had to pick breakfast times at check in.

This hotel is absolutely wonderful! Beautiful hotel with the kindest staff. The breakfast is absolutely delicious. The grounds surrounding the hotel are beautiful and peaceful. Nara Deer park is just a few steps away. They have a bus that will pick you up at the train station and take you to the hotel. This bus will also take you to the shopping district and pick you up again. This is one of the best hotels I have ever stayed. I highly reccomend this historic hotel and we plan to come back and stay again in the future.

We stayed in one of the traditional rooms and it was lovely; Old Japan décor of the Meiji era, but with all the mod cons. Wonderful atmosphere in the common areas. Excellent staff. Perfect end to our three weeks in Japan.

My family have been staying at the Nara Hotel for 3 generations. I have finally experienced it for myself as an adult and was not disappointed. The property is stunning and steeped in history. The location is perfect for enjoying Nara park and Sanjo-dori. The staff are kind, the amenities are generous and high qualities and the beds are cloud-like. Please note the hotel is a historical property and should be respected as such. Loud noises are not welcomed and obviously there is no smoking. I think thats very reasonable considering this isn't an average modern hotel.
