リーズナブルなクラシックホテル

立地も風格も申し分ない。 一つだけ注文を付けるなら、ルームサービスとホテルショップの営業終了が早すぎて、周囲にコンビニも無く何も手に入らない所くらいでしょうか。 ホテルの方々の対応も温かく、ストレスフリーでした。

Deer central - a special experience

A lovely sized room in a great location. The negatives were for us that the bed was a bit hard and the bathroom a bit dated. In saying that this is a traditional hotel and has wonderful history. Bar area very comfortable with good atmosphere and attentive staff. We were lucky to see deer on our way to dinner in town and from our balcony on the lowest floor of the new building. This very much made our stay.

Great stay in Nara

Nara Hoteal was part of our longer Japan family trip. The hotel has amazing history (Einstein, Japan Royal family, Vaclav Havel .. and many other dignitaries stayed in the hotel over its long history). Hotel itself by now is bit dated, but it has amazing architecture and it is very traditional with beautiful wooden panelings, great bar and garden restaurant - we liked it very much even if we think that JR (Japanese railway company, which owns the hotel currently) should invest a bit into its refit. carets are dated and airconditioning was really noisy. Location is amazing as well - just next to the Nara deer park, which is major attraction in Nara as the formal imperial city,
