We loved every single second of our stay at Shikitei, it was amazing in every sense, Personal was so friendly and always on top of things, their care and attention to details was very impressive, we felt so loved and well taken care of. The food was another level of experience, all the courses were delicious!, the room: was the best addition to our trip in Japan, waking up to so beautiful views and even before sleeping we could see some deers from our room, we also had a massage in the room which was so relaxing after many days of walking in Tokyo and Kyoto. A must experience if you stop by Nara! thanks to the wonderful team, it was a memorable experience and will definitely will go back! we were a family of 2 adults and 2 kids, they enjoyed so much wearing their PJ's and sleeping on their beds, and the dinner was so thoughtful they ate everything. thank you!

We loved our stay at Nara Sakurai, if we had more time we would of tried out the restaurant. Great amenities in rooms, replenished daily, generous size room with seperate toilet room to shower and powder room. Drip coffee maker plus tea and milk. Views at night were beautiful and hotel is in such a peaceful area. We had a car, so no problem being isolated from eating areas.

The hotel is in an exceptional location, within easy walking distance of Muro-ji Temple, which gives the stay a rare feeling of peace and seclusion. There are many beautiful routes nearby for walks and hiking through the forest, and places like the Art Forest are also easy to explore. Even without a car, you can still do a lot: with a bit of planning around the timetable, it’s possible to take the bus to a nearby town/village and come back the same day. The rooms are truly stunning — traditional Japanese style with beautiful details, very calm and atmospheric. A special thank you to the host: he personally prepared a traditional dinner for us, and it became one of the highlights of our trip. He was exceptionally kind, attentive, and helpful. We were traveling without a car, and he even drove us to the store a few times, which we really appreciated.

We enjoyed Nara and the Nara Hotel very much! Very nice old hotel, but very nicely maintained, super clean. Fantastic atmosphere. Super comfortable beds and sheets. Delicious multiple course dinner and breakfast. In the middle of the Nara Park. You can go everywhere by walking. There are deers also in the park of the hotel. They are very cute bowing at you to get deer biscuits. Beautiful place!

Great location right by Nara station, so an easy 3-minute walk with luggage into the hotel. Also, very simple to walk to all the sites if you wish. Otherwise, the bus station is next door. Wonderful staff and we liked the complementary lounge with wine and sake. Breakfast buffet was exceptional too.

We stayed just 2 nights in Nara and think 3 nights would have been better. The park is vast and, although you can get a taste of it in a day trip, two days give you more chance to wander right up to the far end and experience everything it has to offer. The town itself has plenty of restaurants for the evening and even the night market in Nara park presents a difference option for foodies. Visit during the first half of August and experience the Tokae festival where volunteers light over 2000 candles around the park at night - further adding to the spiritual charm of this ancient town. Of course, not to mention the deer. It's definitely somewhere you should add to your Japan itinerary.

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.

FUFU Nara is a beautiful and peaceful property in an excellent location, surrounded by nature and close to Nara Park. The accommodation itself is unique and offers a relaxing experience. However, for a property of this level and price range, I expected a higher standard of service. The reception could have been more welcoming and attentive, and the restaurant experience was disappointing. Communication about the courses, drinks and ingredients was sometimes unclear, and the overall level of service did not match our expectations. With improvements in hospitality and restaurant service, this could be an exceptional place to stay in Nara.
