Nice hotel but dead animal as a neighbour
The hotel was great but the room we received had an awful smell It came from the wall cavity and most likely a dead rat or animal of some sort. Staff couldnt change our rooms as it was fully booked but they weren't able to fragrance the room either. Nobody really had any idea of how to deal with the matter at all

Wonderful staff and service. We loved our delicious breakfast, the beautiful garden (my 3 year old especially liked the chickens), and the wonderful rooms. I was only sorry that we didn’t book a longer stay.

Great property. Hotel policies not super friendly. They have a lounge with drinks in the afternoon, but they won't let you sit down to enjoy your drinks as they want to save the tables for dinner, even though it's 4PM and no one was in the restaurant. Taking drinks to your room for happy hour is not great.

Beautiful hotel, relaxing stay in Nara
Lovely hotel, very attentive staff at check in and really enjoyed the free bar and snacks in the evening.
Beautiful room with lots of space and great balcony.
The only negative is -
We had dinner at the hotel one night however we weren’t allowed to take our drinks from the free bar through and were given a drinks menu with the same drinks on but for a surcharge which we did not like and could not understand.

Really cannot fault this hotel. Rooms are extremely comfortable and well equipped and the whole hotel is beautifully designed, around an inner courtyard garden with resident chickens. The atmosphere was peaceful and serene.
Inclusive drinks and snacks are a nice touch and dinner (a sort of Japanese / Western fine dining hybrid) was excellent. Breakfast (traditional Japanese) also superb. The staff are very friendly and helpful although maybe don’t speak as much English as at larger hotels. This was never a problem though.
It is walking distance from Nara park and most of the main sites and is sited on the banks of a beautiful lake. With the yen currently weak, it also represents exceptional value. If I return to Nara, I would not stay anywhere else. Genuinely superb.

It’s such a serene place and a thoughtful hotel. Staying there felt like a spa/escape day in my solo week travel
I’m Japan. The deer park, the viral mochi kiosk, the pagoda was all walkable but the free AM walking tour provided by the hotel, the afternoon/evening snack bars, the soft wood foot den was just all relaxing and so worth it. My birthday (which I never disclosed) was just a couple days earlier but for my dinner course they made sure to still acknowledge it with a cake. Wish I stayed longer.

Great location near Nara park, next to all the landmark shrines & temples.
The hotel is very good overall, but felt somewhat overpriced (no onsen, rooms not so large and equipment quite standard).
Traditional breakfast was very good.
