The hotel and facilities are not updated. No USB charger or international adapter in my room. I was using my own power bank to charge my mobile. Staff was helpful and polite if you have enquiries. The exhaust fan was not working in my bathroom. The mirror and everything were wet and sweaty. I did not notice that after I showered and it was late night, so I did not contact staff till I checked out. Nothing wrong with their staff and service, but they definitely need to upgrade their hardware and get the rooms renovated. I was surprised when they handed me a silver key with key ring while checking in, but not a keycard.

Old fashioned hotel with easy access to JR station. Large room and fast check in and Checkout process. Neither the public bath (tiny and uncomfortable changing room), nor the breakfast (average food at a unsuiting banquet hall) met our expectation on new year's day. No VIP access perks were given.

Disliked: Amenities
At a prime location, right next to Nara Station, the property is extremely convenient, and well maintained. It however is very dated, telling from the room design (back decades ago) to the onsen facilities (very small in size, relative to the numbers of room of the property). It definitely requires an uplifting to match demands of travellers nowadays.

Staying in nara

We stay at this hotel every time we visit Nara, which is often. This time we stayed 4 different times and left the luggage with the hotel in between. The staff are all very kind and helpful. The room is a bit small, but comfortable, We like Public Bath, and love their breakfast with Nara foods. My husband is a Vegan, and he is able to find enough to eat at this hotel. It is very convenient next to JR Nara station and excellent super market next.

The service was great and the welcome lounge was a great. The front desk was helpful both during check in and check out. We also tried the breakfast buffet and enjoyed the variety of yummy food and drinks. Our bathroom had mold in it, on the walls, the light fixtures, the door. That was the only downfall for us.
