Lovely traditional style hotel. The shared bath is very relaxing, lots of nice products supplied. Staff couldn't have been more helpful, although the English spoken is fairly minimal. Dinner was delicious - so much food! Wasn't much of a fan of the Japanese breakfast, though. Rooms spacious, bathrooms are very small and cramped (and reminiscent of an airplane). The curtains are quite thin, so a lot of light is let in at night. Location is good, being only a few minuted walk from Nara Kinetsu train station and the main shopping arcade. Overall, a very pleasant experience. more
