    The staff were exceptional and went above and beyond to ensure we had an enjoyable stay. The location couldn't be better - located along Naritasan Omotesando and directly across from a beautiful temple and park. The public bath was also so enjoyable.

    Excellent service. Wonderful authentic experience for first time travelers to Japan. Take an extra night before flying out of Narita to enjoy this boutique hotel overlooking the incredible Buddhist shrine. Situated on a beautiful shopping street.

    Staffs are very polite and speak English well. It is right in front of Naritasan temple and Naritasan park. It is really big and beautiful place. I went there in the morning and night. Dinner is very good so I recommend adding it to your stay.

    Our view of Naritasan Temple was amazing. It was so nice waking up early and visiting the temple when very few people were there. Walking to the small shops was also very convenient and fun.
