"I was such a beautiful place to stay! There was plenty of room, and plenty of pillows - rare in Japan! The decoration was very tasteful and welcoming. Staircase was a little narrow, but this is common in Japan and not a fault of the owner. There was only one toilet, which worked fine for our family of 4. Location was fabulous - easily walkable to Nara Park and the train station, and right on a busy walking street full of shopping and food, yet still quiet enough to rest at night. My only...

"It was a perfectly nice property, and was in a really good location. However, communications with the host were really poor, and check-in was a huge fiasco. I think they tried to provide check-in information to my home phone number, but obviously, as a traveller, I had no access to my home phone number. There was no other way to get in contact with this host. They provided us a phone number in the booking info, but we called it and it turned out to be the wrong number. We had to plead with the...

"Dinner can be provided. We had pizza and pasta and both were excellent. Host is very nice and gave us a nice introduction. Highly recommend this property. "

"The property seems to be recently updated, it is modern, and clean. The amenity is lacking a few things (for example, it tells the guest to wash dishes and put them away but doesn’t provide a clothe to dry them). Also, the instruction isn’t super clear. The instruction reads to leave the key on the table when checking out (that’s what it says literary in English), when in fact you need to lock and put the key in the lockbox as one example. Also the road to access the property is quite narrow...

"I liked staying here. The hot spring was relaxing. The room was clean and nice. The location is great to go anywhere worth seeing in Nara. I am coming to this place again on my next trip to Japan!"
"Fantastic experience for staying at Novotel Nara. They provide shuttle bus service to and from Nara park and JR station, plus 5 mins walk to the nearest shopping centre and “ROUND one” which is a great place for children and adults.
Nice public bath and kids play area inside the hotel, massage chairs at 2nd floor. Clean and reasonable size of the rooms. I will come back again next summer."
"The hotel was the least “commercial” of the places we stayed in our 11-day trip to Japan. It was smaller and a little more quaint. We appreciated the little bags with the hotel name on them into which we could put selected amenities. The hotel’s location was wonderful— just steps from the Nara Park, as well as lots of little shops and eateries. Staff were polite and helpful.
The Onsen wasn’t our thing— I had used them as a college student and am too self- conscious (and traveling with a 13 year old daughter). Our shower only stayed on for increments of about 30 seconds, which seemed odd… I thought it might be a water-saving measure but would have liked to understand it better. Otherwise, I can’t complain. We had a wonderful (albeit short) visit to Nara! The hotel is cute, location is great, and staff are helpful !"
"Very clean room and property. Cutely decorated lobby area was nice and cool (not cold) with open air. So many free amenities like coffee, tea, water dispenser, shaved ice machine, toothbrushes, board games. Staff is so friendly. Beds, including pillows, were very comfortable. I appreciated the robe/pajama and slippers provided. Very close to Nara train station. 1 mile walk to Nara park and bus back from temple was very fast."
"Hotel is clean and well situated. Staff was friendly and helpful. We didn't know about the bag to put the towels and garbage outside but he got the system after seeing people leave theirs out in the hallway. Laundry was good."
"The staff members were wonderful: Lester and Jonathan/Check - in very quick & Silk Road Dining staff breakfast with on point!
The only thing could be better was the one hour swimming time & having to make a reservation for it. That was strange and awkward. My phone was a problem and I was sure if it went through!"
