Hotels Near Saiho-ji Temple in Seika

This is a very convenient modern hotel if visiting the science park on business. 10 minutes walk away. The Kansai airport bus literally stops at the main entrance. The hotel is large but at the time of visiting pretty quiet. There didn't appear to be an any additional restaurant or bar that was open other than for breakfast. However there is a large out of town shopping area with a number of ok restaurants about 7 or 8 in a row that open late that is literally 10 minutes walk away. We tried 5 of these in our week long stay but honestly nothing stood out. The nearest train station is a good 45 minute walk away so getting a taxi is essential really. However, Nara is only 20 minutes away from Shin Hososo station when you eventually get there. Worth the effort for a bit of life. The hotel breakfast was mixed Japanese and Western which was actually pretty good and probably the highlight of the stay. Rooms were basic, large and quite cool which was actually quite welcome compared to some of the overly stuffy rooms that modern hotels tend to have. Overall functional. But the surrounding area is pretty bleak and very quiet walking around after hours. This may have been the time of year but somehow I doubt it.

This hotel is good, but the location is very collapsed, in a very remote place, you need to take the bus, next to the mountain and bamboo forest, it is scary at night, there is nothing around

It is a small hotel, along the national route, so the entrance is difficult to understand. If you don't look at the map well, you will pass by. It was a hiding hotel and I was able to be quiet and calm because the number of rooms was not small. There was also a balcony in a wide room with a low bed. It was 2 meals, but it was influenced by corona or 2 meals to the room. I was very satisfied with a solid meal for a reasonable price.

There are many local Japanese tourists. The overall decoration is not the latest, the height of the corridor and the layout of the room are mostly traditional. The service level is very Japanese, and every waiter is polite. There are not many people taking a bath, probably because of the diversion of private baths. Across the small road is the ruins of Heijo Palace, where you can run and walk in the wild, and the air is good. There is no business around the hotel, and it takes twelve minutes to walk to the subway station. Fortunately, the hotel provides dinner, and each meal is seven or eight dishes, which is very rich. Toshodaiji Temple is not open, but it is not far to walk, and it takes 20 minutes to get there.

The location is quite far from JR Nara Station and Todaiji, the core of Nara travel, but Kintetsu Railway Shin-Omiya Station is a 10-minute walk away and Heijogu Historical Park is close. Bicycles are also available for rent, but there is a fee and there are no electric bicycles. Hot springs available in the spa’s main bath. The breakfast was good, the lobby was spacious and comfortable, and the staff were friendly. However, please pay more attention to room cleaning.

This place is very comfy and affordable! Great for families. Located on the Sato River, and about a half hour's walk from the palace. Check in was a bit complicated. I would recommend downloading Line if possible to communicate with the host directly.

The room was larger than other Toyoko Inns and the breakfast was substantial. The only drawback was the lack of amenities. As a hotel, I would like to be satisfied, but since it is a Toyoko Inn, I have given up and accepted that.
