Hotel Allamanda大人の隠れ家リゾート, hotel in Nara

Featuring stylish modern rooms, Hotel Allamanda大人の隠れ家リゾート is a 10-minute walk from Hokke-ji Temple and a 20-minute walk from Kintetsu Shin-Omiya Train Station. It offers a cafe/bar.

For a love hotel, the aesthetic is not too sketchy. it felt pretty equatorial. I like that I could have a drink brought up to my room 24/7. The staff is friendly (at least the one I met). The sound isolation is decent, I only heard cleaning noise in the near room in the morning, though I'm unsure if I had neighbors. The room is spacious and the ceiling high. It's a change from usual Japanese hotel rooms. I appreciate the wooden vibes. The AC is strong so the room cools down and warms up pretty fast. Amazing black out windows at night. No bad smell. a little Jacuzzi. I recommend if you have hard time dealing with tiny hotel rooms in Japan and don't mind taking taking back and forth.

    As the major cities in Japan become larger and more...

    As the major cities in Japan become larger and more identical to each other, they also become a little difficult for tourists to manage easily and feel at home in. But Nara has retained the feel it had when I was last there, half a century ago. Back then I said it was the favourite city, along with Kyoto, of any I visited in Japan. Right now I say it is STILL my favourite city, and in the 21st century it has left Kyoto well behind. If I were spending a week in the Kansai area, I would base myself in Nara in preference to Osaka or any of the "majors", and do day trips everywhere else. You will save on accommodation, for a start!

    The Todaiji temple and the Kofuku-ji Buddhist temple next to...

    The Todaiji temple and the Kofuku-ji Buddhist temple next to it are a must-see. The museum was okay. The Isui-en Wisteria garden was okay too but it was too crowded because the flowers were in bloom. There are a number of restaurants and cafes on the street from the Nara Station to Nara Park. Walking from Hotel Nikko/Nara Station to Nara Park and walking to all the attractions nearby was very tiring. So, I may recommend taking the bus on the way back, if possible. Also, it suddenly started raining in the afternoon and luckily, I had an umbrella with me. I wished I had more time to see some of the other attractions outside of the Nara Park.

    The best advice I can give is find where the biggest crowds are massed, all trying to impress deer with the same rice crackers that everyone else is trying to feed them, then pick a direction and walk away from them. There is so much more to the park: primeval forests, ancient stone pathways leading to temples and small villages older than most of our own countries, hidden pockets of lost time. It is hard to explain how it feels to not have another human being in sight, finding yourself passing stone idols carved by people hundreds of years ago, only to see a deer eating moss from the base of said idol that stops chewing to literally bow to you. Of course you bow back and scramble in your bag for some kind of treat to offer your new best friend (I recommend unsalted pretzel sticks, the deer hate plain rice crackers as much as we do at this point) and then having it gently eat from the palm of your hand, before you both again swap polite bows and go on your merry way. Then you hear a crow sing from the ancient forest behind you, and you just know: this is pretty cool.

    Nice place, parks, plenty of temples, huge Buddha statues, a little ride by train and you can see the oldest still standing wooden building in the world! And of course the deer! Feeding the deer with the deer cookies is fun and a little scary as they are quite bold and can pull and push you a bit. Good food available as well.

    If you are tired of seeing crowded with tourists cities, come to Nara and start exploring the city. It’s a beautiful city that has so much more to offer with affordable prices. I fell in love with deers and all that Nara has to offer.

    Location was ideal: adjacent to the JR Nara station, yet isolated from the hustle bustle. A well-appointed grocery store was nearby as was a Starbucks located in a historic building. Hotel was similar to other 3-Star accommodations in Japan; compact yet full of modern amenities. Property was recently rebranded as a Spa, yet I didn’t take advantage of low-cost public bathing facility. Having a separate laundromat with microwave and beverage machine were added bonuses. Room had a work desk. WiFi was robust.

Not only is the location ideal, the staff are extremely helpful and do everything they can to meet your needs and make your stay and time in Nara an amazing experience.

My husband and I enjoyed the complimentary breakfast, the toast was delicious! The staff were all incredibly kind and welcoming, and even recommended some cool things to see in Nara while we were there. They also held our luggage for us after check out which was very nice to explore Nara some more. Would recommend this hotel to others.

    I'm reviewing this place long time after my stay so I don't remember all the details. I enjoyed the location near the train station, it requires a bit of a walk towards the famous temple in Nara but it's practical when travelling by train. The hotel is a standard Super Ueno so there is no surprise in what is offered if you already travelled in Super Ueno places. I enjoyed the view from my room.
