Breakfast was excellent, better than some hotel charges $12-15. However, I wished an amenity should have more items such as a shower cap, cotton and cotton swabs. The location was excellent because the train station was so close. Inside 5minutes walking many restaurants were near by.
This is a very clean and comfortable hotel. Very well located adjacent to the station, it is central for all destinations in Nara.
Thankyou for your comfortable and quiet accommodation and the excellent breakfast provided at no extra cost.
Location is great.Tourist information office is less than a five minute walk. Bus service available is in the same location. A bus rote takes you to the main tourist attraction Nara Park
Staff is unavailable during the night. Room cards allow entry into the building
A drab and beige hotel, with mediocre to bad food and completely non-English speaking staff. Good location but that’s literally all that it has going for it. Way too expensive for what it offers. Would not stay there again.
Close to Nara Station. Very convenient to take a bus to all the famous place in Nara. Hotel is good except late check-in after 12pm as all the staffs are off and nobody in counter to help you.
AB Hotel Nara is a quick walk from Nara station. The rooms are very minimalist but enough to get the job done. They have washing facilities on site however the dryer was not very good. None of the staff members I spoke to could speak English but with Google translate and some hand gestures you will be fine. I would stay here again.
