private onsen

disorganized check-in

noisy environment

The private onsen experience was incredibly relaxing.

My stay had issues from check-in to comfort. The check-in process was slow and disorganized, which left a poor first impression. Additionally, I found the walls thin, making it hard to ignore noises from nearby rooms, which disrupted my sleep. Even the facility felt somewhat outdated and could use a refresh to improve the overall experience.

my stay was fantastic with a wonderful neighborhood that was close to everything yet nice and quiet for sleeping. Being right next to Nara Deer Park made for beautiful strolls through nature, soaking in the stunning scenery all around.

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay. The private onsen was a true gem, providing a relaxing escape after long days exploring Nara. The room was beautifully adorned with tatami mats and offered a cozy atmosphere that reflected traditional Japanese hospitality. Staff were incredibly friendly and always greeted me with warm smiles.

Shower and toilet layout awkward.

charming spot

cozy shared onsen

tiny rooms

Super charming spot! I loved the cozy shared onsen and found everything spotless. The location was fab in the old town with plenty of cafes to pop into!

But good luck if you bring more than a purse—rooms are tiny and soundproofing is a lost cause here!

The tatami mats and soft futon in my Small Single Room were super comfy, making it a cozy stay. The new bathroom was a sweet surprise. The hotel was doing some refurbishing, so it felt fresh. Super convenient location next to Nara Deer Park made for lovely evening strolls. The staff was really helpful, especially when I needed assistance with my bags.

The room was spacious and impeccably clean, with tatami mats and soft futon that made it super cozy. The private onsen was an incredible experience, perfect for unwinding after exploring the nearby temples. Plus, the location was just a short stroll from Nara's most charming attractions.
