Staff was very kind and helpful, I was able to check in late in the evening with no problem. The bathhouse was nice. I took one of the triple japanese rooms for only one person, so I had a lot of space. Three people would've fit comfortably. THe inn is one block away from Tofuku-ji so you can start your visit of Nara there. WIll definitely stay again and would recommend!

We had a little problem during check in as the room was not ready and they couldn’t let us know at what time it would be. In the end we got the room 1 hour later than check in time however the manager went above and beyond to compensate us for it. He was very kind and understanding, and the staff working there too, everyone was very lovely and kind! The room is amazing!!!!! The bathtub in the balcony is big and the room is very big and clean, the facilities are wonderful. We really enjoyed our stay here, we would love to come back to this hotel in a future travel to Japan. I would recommend anyone to skip 1-2 days in Osaka or Kyoto and book this hotel instead of the day trip to Nara. We really appreciated the break from the big cities to relax in this amazing hotel in Nara. The restaurant is also to die for! Everything was delicious!! We would like to thank you all the staff, specially the manager and the chef, for our amazing stay here. Thank you ♥️

This is my 2nd stay at a Fairfield by Marriott with the first one at Kumano. It’s basically a mirror image, and that’s a compliment, considering how spacious each room is and how comfortable we felt staying in them.

It felt like a sanctuary in the city of Nara, with our own personal Japanese garden and a traditional room. The staff were so accomodating and the food at the restaurant was amazing. I would recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a traditional Japanese experience.

Nara has a lot going on.

Nara has a lot going on. Lots of wonderful food, decent shopping and the Park is huge! There is way more to the park that is initially revealed in tourism blogs. We really loved early morning walks thought the park without the crowds. We spent 3 days there, and felt like it was perfect.

I really enjoyed my stay.

I really enjoyed my stay. The area is peaceful and the hotel has a very relaxed, but high-end vibe, minus amenities like pool, gym, restaurants. Although they have a nice restaurant next door with grocery/gift shop. The staff are wonderful and make you feel very welcomed! The hotel is at a base of the mountain and is outside the city which is worked for me, but if you need to be in the center till late, you will need to chip out the $10 taxi ride from the station. Will definitely visit again!

i liked the Kashihara Jingu and the visit to various burial places of former tenno. on my last day, i visited the Omiwa Jinja; there is an observation hill where you could watch the sunset over Kashihara city. walking around town however, you can notice the signs of declining population and abandoned shops. there are a few good ramen shops in the area if you know where to find them, like Saika Ramen, highly recommended for its spicy flavour.

Visited in autumn for the autumn colours, but it was warmer than expected so there weren't many colours. Silver lining was that is was very quiet! No lines for the stores, as there might have been in cherry blossom season or when the colours were full. Really enjoyed walking the mountain.

Nara is my favorite place in Japan.

Nara is my favorite place in Japan. It has really beautiful natural environment, lovely deer that you can easily see while walking on the street, and very friendly people. It has played a very important role in Japanese history (e.g. Horyuji, Toshodaija, etc. are important world heritage sites), but it does not have that many visitors as Kyoto, which makes traveling in Nara a lot more pleasant than travelling in Kyoto. I highly recommend people to travel to southern part of Nara Prefecture (e.g. Horyuji, Asuka-dera, Tsubosaka-dera, Oka-dera, etc.).

Tenri is not as well-known as Nara or Asuka, but the area is dotted with dozens of key-hole shaped kofun, ancient burial mounds. Some are accessible and many are how they have been for hundreds of years.

I didn’t check closing times of temples and it was hard to determine the last buses back from further out locations. I did end up having a nice evening walk along a riverside to find a train station to come back into town.
