The hotel has an amazing history and generally is very nice but dated and a bit tired. Our traditional Japanese room, which was semi below ground felt like we were in a dank basement.
For the price, I felt it was a bit much compared to other more modern, family friendly hotels in the Kyoto/Osaka/Nara area.

FIVE STAR SERVICE THROUGH AND THROUGH!! By far my best service at any hotel I’ve been at. It started with our reservation and I advised the hotel it was my son’s birthday. They had tons of suggestions for things for us to do and he was THRILLED with everything. From the shuttle service driver who was sweet, smiling and took care of all our luggage without a second thought, to being greeted by staff or when they ran down the driveway with umbrellas when we got caught in the rain to the delicious breakfast and dinner, this was an absolute joy to stay here. The location is perfect and we got to see baby and mama deer roaming the property. If you go to Nara, or honestly anywhere near here, and you don’t stay here, you will be missing out!!!

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.
