Hoteles de balneario en Prefectura de Nara, Japón

A question to think about, ‘What makes a hotel a luxury one?’ To me, it’s luxury because of the hospitality of the staff, quality of the property and the food they provided totally exceed travellers’ expectations, and as a result, we would love to pay more for the experience. Some staff really tried their very best to help me during my stay while some just didn’t. Upon arrival, I tried to communicate with the staff that I’d like to cancel my third night’s dinner because of the change of my plan. At first, I booked six meals in total and I’d only want to cancel one dinner and they said I needed to pay 100% for the cancelled meal because they have already bought the ingredients. Okay, I tried to understand that because they had already taken away my credit card and there’s nothing I could do about that and I thought it must be a very nice meal and that’s why they insisted that. Disappointingly, the portion was so small and paying the same amount of money I could get so much better food in 虹夕諾雅 or any other five star onsen hotels in Japan. As a result, I went to bed feeling hungry and eating the snacks I bought for myself :( The food portions are like a bento instead of a proper meal. ) Also, the Western style breakfast was so overpriced and the avocado in the omelette was not fresh at all. One more thing to note is that the complimentary champagne service they provided to their guests. It’s a nice experience but maybe I’m just a lady travelling alone and I couldn’t speak Japanese at all, the waitress didn’t serve me the same way as she served other people in the cafe. When all of them got two glasses of free drinks, one cocktail and one champagne, she only gave me one champagne and didn’t offer me the cocktail. And the day after, there was a nice staff who served me properly and I finally realized that I am entitled to two drinks. (Sigh)The experience was like buying a Chanel bag. The bag was pricey but the chain of the bag just suddenly fall apart while you are using it for the very first time. My advice is: Don’t use their catering services especially for the in-room dining plan. There are so many better choices out there in the city. The room and the service of the staff are great tho.

The hotel is conveniently located right next to JR Nara Station, making it easy to purchase all your travel tickets, including airport bus tickets. The surrounding area is very convenient, with a grocery store, a drugstore, and several nice, affordable dining options nearby. There is also a 4-hour open bar in the evening where you can try a variety of Japanese and international alcoholic beverages. The hotel also features an onsen with both indoor and outdoor areas, which was quite popular among guests.

Instalaciones: Primera clase Cuando reservé la habitación, pensé que era un B&B, pero no esperaba que fuera un B&B tipo hotel. Se siente muy bien cuando entras por la puerta. recepción, debes quitarte los zapatos antes de entrar al piso de tatami; la habitación no es grande, pero está bien, una cama doble contra la pared, champú, ducha, tratamiento facial, hervidor, todo está disponible, Chentou es el primero. , equipada con baño termal, la habitación es muy nueva, sorpresa bastante agradable; Higiene: Una palabra es buena, el agua termal está bastante limpia y la ropa de cama está como nueva; Medio ambiente: Sin mencionar que frente a la puerta está la estación JR Nara, que tiene la línea circular de la ciudad (líneas internas y externas pueden ir directamente a la estación Kintetsu y el resto puede llegar al templo Todaiji, el Museo Nacional y Kasuga Taisha). Santuario, Parque Nara, etc. Cruzando la calle a la izquierda de la puerta y dirigiéndose hacia el este hay tres calles principales, con muchos restaurantes y supermercados, también hay calles comerciales y gastronómicas al norte y al sur (con techos, para que no tengas miedo; lluvia) que conducen a la estación Kintetsu Nara; y más al este está el templo Kofukuji (como recordatorio, tomé JR desde Kioto hasta la estación Nara. Si necesito tomar un tren desde la estación Kintetsu Nara a Osaka, JR parece ser un inconveniente; o no disponible. Kintetsu a Namba está disponible desde la mañana hasta la noche); Servicio: Sin mencionar que la belleza de la recepción saluda a cada huésped con una sonrisa;

It was pretty nice: the atmosphere of Japanese village, hot springs and kaiseki dinner & breakfast. Unfortunately due to language issues we had troubles with free transfer (I didn’t understand where it is, they asked to write them directly at email and never replied) and the process of dinner was a bit confusing: we had dinner, waited for 20 minutes, nobody came, we left and then were suddenly stopped by the personnel as our dinner was not finished yet (but we were waiting for 20 minutes without any notice from them). But if we skip these issues everything was very very good. Trip to Dorogawa was a bit challenging (train from Kyoto, bus to Oyede, bus to Dorogawa) but it’s completely possible by the amazing Japanese transport system.

Fufu Nara is a wonderful hotel that offers a truly relaxing and luxurious experience. The hotel is very clean and well maintained, with beautiful rooms that feel calm and comfortable. The service is excellent — the staff are attentive, polite, and always ready to help, making us feel very well taken care of throughout our stay. The food is delicious and beautifully presented, using high-quality ingredients that really highlight Japanese cuisine. Every meal felt special and memorable. The location is also great, surrounded by nature and close to Nara’s main attractions, yet very peaceful and quiet. Overall, Fufu Nara is a perfect choice for anyone looking for comfort, great service, amazing food, and a relaxing atmosphere. Highly recommended

Hotel muy bonito, pero el servicio no es bueno. Quizás debería decir ”malo”. Reservamos 1 habitación con 3 camas para 3 personas, debido a que el sistema de reservas solo podía ingresar 2 nombres, nos falta el nombre de 1 persona. Las dos señoras de la recepción del hotel nos dijeron que teníamos que pagar 3900 JPN adicionales por la cama adicional. O solo podríamos tener 2 camas para 3 personas. Le dije que no, porque está incluido en el precio de la habitación, ya pagamos. Las señoras no tienen voluntad de ayudarnos a resolver el problema, pero sí están muy interesadas en cobrar más. Intenta imaginar: ¿2 personas reservarán una habitación de 3 camas para 2 camas? ¿Por qué la gente no reserva una habitación estándar del mismo tipo para ahorrar algo de dinero? Por favor contacte con su agente para arreglar su sistema de reservas. Finalmente un caballero del hotel nos ayudó a negociar y pudimos vivir aquí. La habitación es realmente bonita y limpia. Pero el servicio es el peor que he visto en Japón.

La experiencia muy buena, el cuarto es muy grande y hay sopa privada. Cada día, con sopa privada, mira la escena de la nieve, es como un lugar de la gente! ¡La desayuno y la cena son muy ricos!

The room was much larger than normal japanese hotel rooms. There were no bathrooms, so the only way to take a bath was at the onsen. The lady serving us gave some good suggestions for sakura spots, and service was overall pretty good.

Incredible ryokan, the best stay I've ever had in Japan. Staff were very helpful and kind right from the warm welcome. The food was absolutely incredible with a good dozen of plates for one person at dinner and another 6-8 plates for breakfast. The garden in front of the building also adds a magnificent touch to the mountainy-traditional side of the trip. Even if a bit expensive, I really felt like my money was going somewhere, didn't regret it. I will 100% remember this stay for a long time, thank you :)

En general, el hotel estaba muy limpio, pero no me sentía cómoda teniendo que usar mis propios zapatos para entrar a la habitación. Además, cuando fui a las aguas termales al aire libre durante el día, me aterrorizó encontrar palomas blancas. Las habitaciones privadas con aguas termales dentro del hotel requieren reserva, pero estaban completas cuando llegué, así que no pude usarlas. Además, las aguas termales al aire libre no ofrecen vistas a la pagoda de cinco pisos porque está en renovación, lo que le resta atractivo. Tenía muchas ganas de subir a la azotea, ¡solo para descubrir que se requería reserva y que ni siquiera estaba abierta! 🤣 Pero pensé que de todas formas no habría mucho que ver, ya que la pagoda de cinco pisos está en renovación.
