Great hotel. Large rooms that are very clean. Very good staff. Would recommend for families with children. One improvement - TV has no channels in English. They need to add a few.

9/10 Wonderful! (1,006 reviews)

This is a great hotel if you are going to Universal Studios Park, one entrance is right on the Universal City Walk and the subway and Starbucks. You can take the subway or get a taxi into downtown Osaka, about 20-30 minutes.

7.2/10 Good! (23 reviews)

This spa hotel was very different from western hotels. Our room was like an apartment with a huge outdoor space with an outdoor sauna, pool- onsen, shower, lounge area, and covered dining area. Inside there was another pool/tub - onsen, dining area, TV area, karaoke machine, and two large - queen beds. The staff spoke little English, but used a translation App to help us. Breakfast was very nice served in our room. There was also a massage chair!

Todaiji Temple

Isui-en Garden

Explore the great outdoors at Isui-en Garden, a lovely green space in Nara. While in this walkable area, find time to visit its temples.

Nara's near proximity to the cities of Kyoto and Osaka makes it an easy side trip in anyone's Kansai itinerary. And although most people come to Nara for the roaming (but tame) deers and the historical temples, Nara park offers a lot of hidden gems that I would recommend devoting a whole day to enjoy a trip to Japan's first permanent capital.

Take for example, Yoshikien Garden: it is a mere walking distance away from Todaiji temple and yet it is almost always missed by tourists. Foreign travelers can avail of the free entrance just by showing their passports. The moss garden
