"A beautiful spot in the forest, although just a bit far from the sights in Nara. The staff was lovely and the room quite comfortable, by Western standards for a Japanese room (although the futons were by far the hardest and most uncomfortable of the three ryokans we visited). The meals lived up to the reviews, beautifully presented true kaiseki."

"The property seems to be recently updated, it is modern, and clean. The amenity is lacking a few things (for example, it tells the guest to wash dishes and put them away but doesn’t provide a clothe to dry them). Also, the instruction isn’t super clear. The instruction reads to leave the key on the table when checking out (that’s what it says literary in English), when in fact you need to lock and put the key in the lockbox as one example. Also the road to access the property is quite narrow...

"This was a simply magnificent Hotel. From the moment we walked in to the moment we left the service was exceptional. The breakfast was superb and the roof top terrace amazing."

"I stayed in 7 different hotels during my 5 week Asia trip and this would probably rank at 1 or 2. I stayed in the standard twin room (23SQM). The finishes and decor was top notch, and that washroom was so nice. Clean, sleak and had an amazing shower. My 5yr old said he loved the shower. Check in and out took maybe 5 mins each. Staff helped with luggage delivery to our next hotel. Size wise, I would say with 3 ppl and 5 luggages it did make our room a bit cramped. For Japan standards though it was better than our hotel in Tokyo.
Location wise, there's a convenience store, bakery and subway station right outside the hotel."
"Imperial surpassed expectations. From the moment you walk in, staff stand ready to assist, with even the smallest request. the family room is simply perfect for a small family of four and the adjoining rooms were so comfortable. floor area was tremendous, for example, in the main room, there was a 2 seater sofa, with a lazy chair and work table, and tv console with luggage area. i could still open up two large Rimowa luggages in the middle of the room and have space to walk around them. the kids also enjoyed their space in their room, with two single beds, and ensuite facilities, and two small tables to get their own things done, together with their own wardrobe closet. there were different breakfast options, of which i tried the Jap-Western on L2 and the Jap one on L24. variety was sufficient but for the L2 fusion, I would have hoped for more fruits, especially the japanese melons and grapes if possible. i would definitely look forward to another stay there. "
"Hotel very convenient as it just outside the JR exit. Room size may be a bit smaller but luggage can put under the bed. Bathroom a bit small but have a small bathtub. Weird thing is Air Con temperature can’t be adjusted as it a centralised. So sometime at night sleeping feel a bit hot. Over all is okay "
