The hotel and room where nice and spacious, but we got a room with shared toilet which was not clear before booking. They made up for it offering a compensation, but still USD 200 for a shared toilet room sounds excessive

Great Japanese experience

Staff extremely helpful and friendly. Great location. Would stay here again. Breakfast was beautifully payed out. Very Japanese - some was yummy but not every dish was my taste. But that’s just different cultures. Overall a lovely stay.

清潔感のある広い部屋でゆっくり出来ました。スタッフの方は皆さん感じが良いですが、夜浴室に忘れ物をした際に届けてくださったスタッフさんには特に感謝しています。 奈良博に近いホテルで見つけたのですが、とても良い印象だったのでまた次に奈良で泊まるときは考えたいです。

全般的に好印象をもてる宿でした。会話や案内もマニュアル感を感じさせずとても温かい印象でしたが、かと言って一線は画していてとても心地よかったです。部屋の浴室も貸切風呂も、他の共用スペースもシンプルで美しく保たれていてとても感じが良かったです。次回もまた宿泊したいです。
