高い期待値相応。
Pros:

奈良駅から直結で、移動、観光、買物に非常に便利。 駅前にも係わらず夜は静か。 コンシェルジュが充実。

Cons:

朝食は素晴らしいが、値段3500円と現状を考えれば当たり前か。 何れにせよ大きな欠点ではない。

Perfect location for exploring Nara
Pros:

The location can’t be beat - right outside JR Nara station, opposite a convenience store. Really great place to stay if you want to explore Nara prefecture.

My room was enormous and very comfortable. I also enjoyed the seasonal strawberry parfait at the desert parlour in the lobby.

Cons:

There is only one type of bath in the public bath area and the water is a bit hot.

地點超方便,早餐很好吃! 房間比較舊
Pros:

地點連著奈良車站超方便! 車站裡有超市也有餐廳、咖啡廳。飯店早餐非常精緻好吃,大推~ 會願意在入住。
The hotel is connected to Nara Station, the location is very convenient. There is a big supermarket and some restaurants in the station. Hotel breakfast is very delicious and elegant! I would stay here again for the location and breakfast.

Cons:

房間偏小、舊。頂樓的大澡堂也比較老舊。
The rooms are on the small side, and you can see it's an old hotel. The public bath upstairs is also old as well.
