“A great stop off point for exploring Nara and getting to Osaka for a day trip”
It is perfectly located for exploring Nara. It is by the JR Nara train station and not the Kintetsu station. The JR train station is the main line but you need a JR pass in order to use it. Everything is easily walkable so easy to get to regardless. And there are always taxis.

Quite difficult to find the reception in the building. Not enough signs and directions from multiple entry points of the building!

Excellent location and easy to find by car. Hotel car par a real bonus for a hotel next to the Rail Station. Breakfast was a feast to die for with so much Japanese food plus many non Japanese options. Room was comfortable and good size.

“Perfect location for exploring Nara”
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.

Great location, only 1 min from JR Nara station. Lockers to leave luggage for free is very useful if you plan to spend the day in Nara before check-in/after check-out. Breakfast was delicious.
