8.6/10 Excellent! (119 reviews)
The check in after hours is not easy. Last service person leaves at 11p (23:00). I had to download an app and process my passports. Not a fun process after walking 30k steps. Other than that no complaints. Great location, nice staff, good size rooms, & clean.

Not too far away from the train station, like 5-7min walk. A few 7-11 and family mart down the hotel. Brand new hotel and everything is clean.

Isui-en Garden
Nara's near proximity to the cities of Kyoto and Osaka makes it an easy side trip in anyone's Kansai itinerary. And although most people come to Nara for the roaming (but tame) deers and the historical temples, Nara park offers a lot of hidden gems that I would recommend devoting a whole day to enjoy a trip to Japan's first permanent capital. . Take for example, Yoshikien Garden: it is a mere walking distance away from Todaiji temple and yet it is almost always missed by tourists. Foreign travelers can avail of the free entrance just by showing their passports. The moss garden
