Experience of the stay
Our purpose was to ride the Vista Car with our two pre-schoolers aged 5 and 2, and we planned the Nara trip.
I usually look for hotels with large public baths, but this time we prioritized hotels close to Kintetsu Nara Station since we arrived there.
It was easy to find, located right in the Sakura Street shopping district, just as you emerge from Kintetsu Nara Station.
The room was compact, but there was space for luggage at the entrance and a closet, so we could relax on the bed and at the table at the back.
The beds were connected, making it easy for the children to sleep with us, and it wasn’t cramped for two adults and two children sleeping together.
The bath was a unit bath, but it was spacious enough for one adult and one child.
The water pressure of the shower was just right.
I intended to buy water but forgot, but there was a water server on the first floor, so it was helpful to take the kettle from our room.
Also, we could watch YouTube on the room's TV, so the kids were very happy.
Experiences during the trip
There were many restaurants around.
Since my 2-year-old didn't stay quiet, we ordered takeout and ate in our room, but I hope to eat outside or at the restaurant below the hotel when they get a little older.
There were many stylish cafes and bakeries nearby that served breakfast, so I definitely want to enjoy a breakfast next time.
Also, Nakatanidou, famous for its rice cakes, was close by, and we stopped by to eat after visiting Nara Park the next day.
It was crowded, but since many people were taking pictures, we could buy the rice cakes right away.
I think it would be enjoyable even with small children as you can walk to Nara Park.
On the way to Nara Park, there was a Starbucks with terrace seats where we could relax.
For my train-loving son, we reserved lower seats on the Vista Car, so it was stress-free as we didn't have to worry about being noisy on the way there and back.Get Extra Bonus Coins! Sign up with this user's referral code now!
