Katano Iwafune Shrine Hotels

"Thanks for friendly staff"

"Staff was excellent and very nice, the rooms are small, but that is common in Japan, and the bed is very stiff not my preference but maybe people like that. I would definitely recommend a stay here. The location is excellent. You are right next to the train station. Three minutes walking you can connect from here to Kyoto in under an hour. Which is what we did we stayed here to save money on hotel and just took the train over only cost about three US dollars per person and you go one hour to Kyoto and spend the day there as well."

"Location of the hotel is excellent"

"Great room"

"The room was very very comfortable from the bed to the pillows to the soft towels to the shower. It was quiet and we slept very well here! "

"The room was clean and the hot bath on the 9th floor was excellent. The breakfast had a variety of choices. I truly enjoyed my stay at this hotel. I will definitely come back there."

"Super clean room and spacious with a sizable bathroom. Well equipped with good quality shampoo and conditioner; my hair was literally smoother, lol. Rate was really economical. Highly recommended! Lots of restaurants and they are like 5-7 minutes walking from the hotel. Staff was friendly and after I checked out in the morning they let me stored my luggage in the lobby area until evening. The Nara station is super close and they even have a tourist information center over there. I will come and stay here again!"

"I will start by saying I normally find premium brands of hotel chains not great value for price. But not the JW Marriott Nara! From the minute we checked in the service and hospitality was tremendous. Even the smell of the hotel was unique and comforting. One of my travel partners bought some of their air “therapy” to take home. Our room was luxurious without being over the top. Amenities like sauna, jacuzzi and pool felt like we were in a high end resort somewhere. The breakfast was fresh with a lot of variety. And lets say the foam “baby deer” on our coffee had my wife wanting to take the barista home. The bar was well stocked and wine choice excellent. A little pricey, but expected. I would highly recommend you stay here when in Nara. We will certainly return! "

"Such a great hotel! Many amenities to enjoy and I really recommend the spa. Breakfast was top tier! Everything was enjoyable. My favorite part was our room. The view was amazing and the staff was always so helpful. They also have a coin laundry. We made sure to use EVERYTHING to our convenience. Thank you everyone for such a wonderful stay! We will be back again."
