Hotel a 5 stelle in Prefettura di Nara, Giappone

A question to think about, ‘What makes a hotel a luxury one?’ To me, it’s luxury because of the hospitality of the staff, quality of the property and the food they provided totally exceed travellers’ expectations, and as a result, we would love to pay more for the experience. Some staff really tried their very best to help me during my stay while some just didn’t. Upon arrival, I tried to communicate with the staff that I’d like to cancel my third night’s dinner because of the change of my plan. At first, I booked six meals in total and I’d only want to cancel one dinner and they said I needed to pay 100% for the cancelled meal because they have already bought the ingredients. Okay, I tried to understand that because they had already taken away my credit card and there’s nothing I could do about that and I thought it must be a very nice meal and that’s why they insisted that. Disappointingly, the portion was so small and paying the same amount of money I could get so much better food in 虹夕諾雅 or any other five star onsen hotels in Japan. As a result, I went to bed feeling hungry and eating the snacks I bought for myself :( The food portions are like a bento instead of a proper meal. ) Also, the Western style breakfast was so overpriced and the avocado in the omelette was not fresh at all. One more thing to note is that the complimentary champagne service they provided to their guests. It’s a nice experience but maybe I’m just a lady travelling alone and I couldn’t speak Japanese at all, the waitress didn’t serve me the same way as she served other people in the cafe. When all of them got two glasses of free drinks, one cocktail and one champagne, she only gave me one champagne and didn’t offer me the cocktail. And the day after, there was a nice staff who served me properly and I finally realized that I am entitled to two drinks. (Sigh)The experience was like buying a Chanel bag. The bag was pricey but the chain of the bag just suddenly fall apart while you are using it for the very first time. My advice is: Don’t use their catering services especially for the in-room dining plan. There are so many better choices out there in the city. The room and the service of the staff are great tho.

Breakfast was ok same as 3-4 star hotels in Japan. Close to the Nara park only few stations but have a walking distance from hotel to train station so better to wait the free shuttle from hotel. very nice facility inside the room, free coffee n water.

Hotel Nikko Nara Location: Quiet yet convenient. Near Kyoto Station (shuttle available) and close to Higashi-Honganji Temple. Peaceful atmosphere. Food: Excellent breakfast with Japanese and Western options. Fresh, seasonal, and well-presented. Onsen / Bath: Beautiful natural hot spring bath on-site. Spacious, clean, and very relaxing. Staff: Warm, attentive, and professional. Multilingual support available. Free Ice Cream: Complimentary soft-serve ice cream available daily – a lovely treat! Massage: ¥100 massage chairs available – incredible value for a quick relief after sightseeing. Extra Perks: Free welcome drinks, lounge access with light snacks, and rental amenities (e.g., pajamas, skincare items). Very guest-friendly. Overall: Highly recommended for a luxurious yet affordable stay in Kyoto. Great for couples and solo travelers alike.

A hotel full of history as it has been the chosen venue for important events in Nara. Many celebrities had stayed in this hotel including Albert Einstein. Tried the rice lager at the tea house which is very good tgough some may find it not strong enough. The vicinity is nice. It is within waljing distance of the famous Nara Park. The room is spacious. Shuttle bus service to Nara station is excellent. Very helpful staff. An enjoyable stay indeed!

This has been one of the best if not THE best experience I have ever had in a Japanese hotel. We stayed in Nara for 2 days. The hotel has only a few rooms and quietly located within walking distance of the Kasuga Taisha. The room we had faces the forest on one side and a beautiful path on the other, and it was super large. It might not be as noticeable as others near the train station, but it’s a must try if you plan to stay in Nara for an extended period, which in its own rightis definitely worth it.

I book this hotel assuming its nara, but its actually almost an hour train from nara deer park and temple. It cost almost 1000 yen using train just to arrive to this hotel. But the hotel provide amazing service which include free flow alcohol from 21-23pm and also huge onsen bath. I choose tatami room for the experience but not really to my liking because the room looks very old especially the bathroom.

Parla del servizio, è solo un po'di tempo libero. Quando si prenota una camera, si può scegliere una sala amministrativa. Sarà più costoso di altre camere, ma considerando che ci useremo occasionalmente la sala amministrativa, la sala amministrativa ha una pausa e una colazione, ma la colazione è molto semplice, perché la tariffa della camera è precoce, Non mi aspettavo che fosse stato detto che doveva essere speso un altro denaro per colazione. Chiedendo ai clienti di Trip.com di servirli non sapevano le regole dell'hotel. Il diritto di interpretazione dell'hotel è che deve usare la colazione nella sala amministrativa. Non si può godere di un loro colazione. L'atteggiamento è molto duro e devastato, ma è stato detto che può essere, quando si ferma, L'hotel si scusa per aver spiegato male, non ha spiegato chiaramente con Trip.com. Se non hai una comunicazione chiara, dovresti lasciare che i turisti si sbagliano? Il più interessante è che due amministratori giapponesi sono fermamente fermi a non permettere la colazione con uno stagista taiwanese, e abbiamo rinunciato al colazione per aver preso l'aereo quel giorno. Le scuse dell'hotel non sono sincere, sembra che tutto il diritto di interpretazione sia all'hotel, e non possano essere prese in alcun modo. Inoltre, la procedura di soggiorno è super lunga. Tre camere hanno fatto quindici minuti. Alcuni servizi sembrano buoni, in realtà, molti residui sono complicati! La gestione non corrisponde al nome dell'hotel!Questa è la peggiore esperienza di alloggio.

Это не просто отель, а уникальный портал в историю Японии. Расположенный в бережно отреставрированных зданиях бывшей пивоварни саке, он предлагает редкое сочетание аутентичного духа эпохи Эдо и безупречного современного комфорта. Просторные номера с ароматом дерева, а также частные сады, создающие атмосферу абсолютного уединения в самом сердце Нары. Отдельного восхищения заслуживает высокая кухня: завтраки здесь превращаются в гастрономическое путешествие по региону с использованием лучших сезонных продуктов. Внимательный персонал и внимание к каждой детали делают пребывание здесь незабываемым — это идеальное место для тех, кто ищет тишины, эстетики и истинно японского гостеприимства». А после завтрака к нам в сад пришли Олени!!!!

奈良旅行で利用しましたが、高級感とコスパのバランスが素晴らしい宿でした。 特に良かった点を絞ってレビューします。 完璧な清潔感：隅々まで清掃が行き届いており、水回りもピカピカでした。 充実のアメニティ：冷蔵庫の無料ドリンクに加え、パジャマ風の着心地が良い作務衣まで用意されていて感動しました。ドライヤーとヘアアイロンはReFaでした。手ぶらで宿泊OKなレベルです。 時間を気にせずに入れる、広いお風呂や大画面プロジェクターを独占でき、お値段以上の価値を実感できました。 スタッフさんの対応も親切で、満足度の高い滞在でした。
