This was a nice hotel in a great location with a good staff. It was nice that they had free movies in English on the TV. Be aware the room is really tight which may be problematic if you have a lot of luggage or may be a bit claustrophobic if you were planning to do any work.

An absolutely great place to stay very affordable close enough to nara park to walk short bus ride to the great Buddha and very very close to the train station for easy transportation and plenty of restaurants within walking distance.

The hotel was close to Kintetsu-Nara Station - definitely walkable for anyone. The location of the hotel was on a street that had decent restaurants and a lot of dessert cafes. It was a very centralized location in my opinion. The walk to Nara Park is about 30 minutes. Luggage storage prior to check-in was smooth, no issues. My room was clean and comfortable. The lighting and A/C settings panel was digital, which was easy to use and convenient to control from one location in the room. The wide screen TV was located on the wall in front of the bed which made it very comfortable to watch a movie to wind down at the end of the day. Overall, it was a good first experience at an APA hotel.

Great place! Conveniently close to Nara Park, good restaurants, and within walking distance of the train station from Osaka. Perfect! The hotel is super clean, although the rooms are quite small. However, it upholds outstanding Japanese standards. Love it!

It is in such a convenient location, two blocks away from some major Nara Temples, I was surprised 5 min away from the Hotel, deers are around meeting with Tourists already. As other APA locations, it is very convenient from Kyoto to take Kintetsu Limited Express Train to arrive and leaving same as for Osaka direction. For me, it is a “hidden gem” hotel to stay.
