    convenient location
    exceptional staff
    outdated infrastructure
    needed deeper cleaning
    not a true 4-star experience

    The location near the station made it incredibly easy to transport our luggage and access major attractions with minimal effort. The staff were exceptional, arranging an early check-in, which was a lifesaver for my senior parents. Although the infrastructure felt outdated and could use a deep clean, the sheets and bathroom were clean. I also appreciated the complementary lounge offering wine and sake. the breakfast buffet was another highlight.

    public bath

    Family stay with a unforgettable twist

    Had a pleasant experience with the public bath on the 6th floor. It was my first time trying it, but the whole vibe was relaxing, even if I felt a bit awkward at first being nude. The staff were incredibly friendly, and I greatly appreciated the free bottles of water provided in our room every day. The amenities in general were just what we needed for a family trip.

    It wasn't cheap, but still, I guess that's par for the course in this touristy area.

    tenderloin delight
    fresh pastries
    helpful staff
    missing beds
    service hiccup

    The pan roasted beef tenderloin at Lobby Lounge Fountain was an absolute delight—perfectly cooked and bursting with flavor. Plus, I can't forget the fresh pastries from Bakery Cafe Haiti Capital Shirukia Nara. they’re the stuff of dreams! On top of that, the staff was super helpful and the location was spot on, making everything easy to get to.

    Now, don’t get me wrong, all was mostly good, but we were a bit bummed when our family room was missing a couple of beds initially. It took a little extra time to sort things out after a long day exploring.

    Nikko Nara impressed me with its fantastic location right next to the JR station. The clean room had a comfy bed, and the staff offered friendly service throughout my stay. However, the pillows could use some improvement. Overall, a pleasant experience in a charming city.

    clean room
    spacious bathroom
    good amenities
    tight space
    small size

    I stayed in a Standard Single Room and it was pretty cozy. The room was clean and had a decent size, definitely better than some smaller places I've been. Bathroom felt spacious too, which was nice. The amenities were solid—hot water kettle and fridge were a plus. Just a small downside, the room was kind of tight for two people, but worked well for me solo.

    spacious accommodations
    weak wi-fi

    Conveniently located right next to the train station, making it easy to explore the area. Rooms are clean, well-equipped, and spacious, with adequate amenities, although the bathroom felt a bit smaller in comparison.

    Had some issues with the Wi-Fi, which was pretty weak and often couldn't even load a simple page. The air conditioning was a bit tricky, and I preferred when windows opened for fresh air but that wasn't an option here. Also, watch out for the traditional buckwheat pillows, especially if you have allergies—no synthetic options were available, so I ended up grabbing a cheap pillow from a store nearby.

    rusty kettle

    Convenient stay near the station!

    We only stayed for a night, but the location was a lifesaver! Super close to the JR station. The room was a bit on the older side but comfy enough. The breakfast had a nice Japanese vibe, which we loved. Just wish the kettle worked right. it was rusty and needed replacing.
