Very convenient location. Right next to the train station. They give you breakfast included. The room had everything you could need and the window had proper black out blinds. The bed was really comfy and the pillows were far better than the other hotels were we stayed in Japan. Bare in mind, if you are a foreigner, they give you pijamas to go to the common baths, but in therr you got to stay naked and don't have any tatoos.

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.

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.

Nice and close to Nara station

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.
