普段と違う雰囲気を楽しめる。が疲れた。
Pros:

ロケーションが良かった。
夕食が高級感があった。

Cons:

良くないのではなく…
のんびりと気楽に過ごしたい人には合わないかも？
食事、個室の展望風呂、星空ツアーなど時間の縛りがキツい。トイレが少ない。夕食時の部屋着禁止。照明が暗い。(居室洗面所、食堂)オシャレな雰囲気ではあるけど…

Pros:

Incredible authentic Japanese experience, room had views for days within the trees for a beautiful view across Nara. Rooftop spa was divine and dinner/breakfast was exceptional. As a family of 5 this capped off our trip, a night to unwind and relax after 2 weeks of exploring Japan!
