Spotlessly clean. Breakfast was nice, the very spacious room had - I suppose - a Japanese design. A comfortable double bed, a low table and two very low stools, but no sofa, no chair, no desk. Very spacious bathroom. A Jacuzzi in the bathroom AND on the terrace!

    The deer roaming freely was amazing.

    The deer roaming freely was amazing. The hub of the town was vibrant. The big Buddha temple was very interesting but I would recommend using a guide. I fell due to uneven loose paver and some were very slippery when wet. Night street lighting was poor tbh. Over all a nice place to visit.

    I liked best out hotel, ryokan that accepted tattoos in the public onsen and also had a private bathroom, with an amazing room overall. The deers are quite agressive, not attacking people but stealing anything they can and munching on your clothes if they smell food on you. Still it was a very interesting experience. The crafts museum was just a small shop, but the games museum was super interactive and fun, with very friendly staff. Both of those were free and close by. In Nara everything is pretty close, walking distance, and the streets are very beautiful with traditional architecture.

    As the major cities in Japan become larger and more...

    As the major cities in Japan become larger and more identical to each other, they also become a little difficult for tourists to manage easily and feel at home in. But Nara has retained the feel it had when I was last there, half a century ago. Back then I said it was the favourite city, along with Kyoto, of any I visited in Japan. Right now I say it is STILL my favourite city, and in the 21st century it has left Kyoto well behind. If I were spending a week in the Kansai area, I would base myself in Nara in preference to Osaka or any of the "majors", and do day trips everywhere else. You will save on accommodation, for a start!

    The Todaiji temple and the Kofuku-ji Buddhist temple next to...

    The Todaiji temple and the Kofuku-ji Buddhist temple next to it are a must-see. The museum was okay. The Isui-en Wisteria garden was okay too but it was too crowded because the flowers were in bloom. There are a number of restaurants and cafes on the street from the Nara Station to Nara Park. Walking from Hotel Nikko/Nara Station to Nara Park and walking to all the attractions nearby was very tiring. So, I may recommend taking the bus on the way back, if possible. Also, it suddenly started raining in the afternoon and luckily, I had an umbrella with me. I wished I had more time to see some of the other attractions outside of the Nara Park.

    This was the most welcome I felt of our entire trip. The staff were incredibly helpful and kind. If you could choose any hotel for your vacation this has to be the one because it will be your favorite. The food and staff were my favorites.

    The best advice I can give is find where the biggest crowds...

    The best advice I can give is find where the biggest crowds are massed, all trying to impress deer with the same rice crackers that everyone else is trying to feed them, then pick a direction and walk away from them. There is so much more to the park: primeval forests, ancient stone pathways leading to temples and small villages older than most of our own countries, hidden pockets of lost time. It is hard to explain how it feels to not have another human being in sight, finding yourself passing stone idols carved by people hundreds of years ago, only to see a deer eating moss from the base of said idol that stops chewing to literally bow to you. Of course you bow back and scramble in your bag for some kind of treat to offer your new best friend (I recommend unsalted pretzel sticks, the deer hate plain rice crackers as much as we do at this point) and then having it gently eat from the palm of your hand, before you both again swap polite bows and go on your merry way. Then you hear a crow sing from the ancient forest behind you, and you just know: this is pretty cool.

    The location was superb (just next door Nara JR Station, next to bus station, 7Eleven downstair, and located midcity), we got upgraded room, they have free cocktail bar and coffee, also onsen (hotwater spring), the breakfast was excellent only for 1000 yen, the room is clean and super spacious, the amenities are complete, the reception speaks good English and very polite, the check-in and check-out process were smooth (especially c/o because we only need to put magnet sign at the door).

    The location is top notch. The hotel is just in front of major buses station and the KINTETSU NARA Station. At less than one minute, there's a convenience store, a bus information center and a shopping mall (Daiso, plenty of souvenir shops, restaurants, etc.). Still next to the hotel there's a parking where you can store your luggage for 500 yens/day in case you are leaving Nara in the middle of the night. Also, the hotel will gladly keep your luggage for free before your check-in time. And the breakfast is top!

We stayed in a Japanese style room, love all the detail of the corridor and the style. We especially enjoy the half board meals provided. I recommend anyone stay there to get it. I’ll definitely come back again if I’m visiting Nara again. Hotel is located very close to the train station and buses are easy walk to.

    We stayed only one night at Ryokan Kosen Kazeya Group and the location of the hotel is perfect, if you would like to explore Nara. The staff was so wonderful and the in-room Japanese breakfast was extensive and delicious! The hotel also has a public bath and other than we are used to in Japan, tattooed guests were welcome to use the bath as well. Don't let the interior of the hotel fool you; the hotel is outdated, but very well maintained and the rooms are spacious and well designed!

The hotel was also a short walk from both the Nara park with the famous deer, shrines and monuments plus the food market and restaurants. The hotel was clean and well maintained. There was a nice breakfast included in the price.
