We enjoyed our stay family of 4. We booked room with bathroom and shower. They have a great manga collection and local craft beers available. We enjoyed the community spaces and its steps away from train station. Located close to Nara park and temples. Great price. Breakfast was included staff was helpful and very nice.

The hotel’s location, close to Nara Station and within walking distance of tourist attractions, is fantastic. As it was originally a bakery, the cookies provided in the room and the bread served at breakfast were delicious. The room was spotlessly clean, and the staff were attentive, making for a very satisfying stay. I think it’s the perfect hotel for solo travelers.

We loved staying at this property. The room was lovely and well sized compared to our experience across Japan. The staff were amazingly friendly and really helpful. The breakfast that was provided was simple, but was wonderfully tasty and perfect for what we needed. The surrounding area was within walking distance and very convenient to the shopping district as well as to the park. One of our favourite stays in Japan, and a great value for money.

This was a very cute property near to the central shopping area of Nara and to Nara Park. The major tourist attractions are in easy walking distance, and of course I loved the easy access to all the restaurants and shopping. The included breakfast is a brick toast with a choice of butter, jam, red bean, or egg salad, with a salad and coffee. It's a very tasty breakfast but not especially heavy.
