Top Sakurai Hotel Reviews

MIROKU NARA by THE SHARE HOTELS

8/10 Good

"The location was far from train station and stores. There were no amenities. The rooms were small. The place was clean. It’s fine"

Onyado Nono Nara Natural Hot Spring

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent!"

Novotel Nara

8/10 Good

"The hotel is in a great location and very modern. The buffet breakfast has way more options than one needs. The flavor was a bit lacking in most of the food. I will say their plant based broth was the best I ever had. I also recommend eating at せっちゃん a nine seat chef experience. Less expensive than most of the restaurants in the area."

KOKO HOTEL Higashiosaka

10/10 Excellent

"It was great, staff are super helpful and they took care of all of my needs."

HARUYA Naramachi - Hostel

10/10 Excellent

"This was my favourite place we stayed on our trip so far. It was so quiet and peaceful both in the hostel and the neighbourhood. It’s about a 20 minute walk to get to Nara Park and you’re likely to run into some deer on your way there as they tend to come right into town in addition to hanging in the park. There are laundry facilities and a smoking area in the back garden. Rice porridge is served each morning and there are free and paid beverages available. There was no staff on site due to the financial repercussions of the pandemic, but the autonomous luggage storage and check-in instructions were easy to follow. I will definitely be returning in the future!"

Hotel Nara Sakurai No Sato

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful location, amazing hotel - the rooms were clean, well appointed - live the bathrooms setup - bed super comfortable. We ordered breakfast for the second night - yummy Japanese meal set. This was our favorite hotel in our stay, well appointed hope to return. You need a car because it is remote from public transport, plenty of free parking at the same level as hotel. The staff was wonderful! This place is well worth a journey!"

Hotel Nikko Nara

10/10 Excellent

"Very convenient location & high quality service. I only wish they open their restaurant a little longer!"

JW Marriott Hotel Nara

10/10 Excellent

"The staff members were wonderful: Lester and Jonathan/Check - in very quick & Silk Road Dining staff breakfast with on point! The only thing could be better was the one hour swimming time & having to make a reservation for it. That was strange and awkward. My phone was a problem and I was sure if it went through!"

Asukasou

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful property with astounding amenities. The experience of putting in Yukata and going for our meals was amazing."
