Very convenient location. Right next to the train station. They give you breakfast included. The room had everything you could need and the window had proper black out blinds. The bed was really comfy and the pillows were far better than the other hotels were we stayed in Japan.
Bare in mind, if you are a foreigner, they give you pijamas to go to the common baths, but in therr you got to stay naked and don't have any tatoos.

Breakfast was excellent, better than some hotel charges $12-15. However, I wished an amenity should have more items such as a shower cap, cotton and cotton swabs. The location was excellent because the train station was so close. Inside 5minutes walking many restaurants were near by.

Thankyou for your comfortable and quiet accommodation and the excellent breakfast provided at no extra cost.

Give this one a miss

A drab and beige hotel, with mediocre to bad food and completely non-English speaking staff. Good location but that’s literally all that it has going for it. Way too expensive for what it offers. Would not stay there again.

Meh, we felt very judged walking in with our backpacks. Mindy shocked we had a reservation, obviously don’t get many none wheelie bag guest. Breakfast was ok but if you don’t like Japanese food you’ll struggle. Room was ok, easy walking distance to everything.

Location of this hotel couldn't be better: just steps away from Nara JR station. The staff were friendly and accommodating, although their English skills are not particularly strong. The breakfast buffet was good (though very much to a Japanese palate), the room was clean, and check in and out was quick and easy. The biggest surprise is that while I made a reservation for 3 people (2 adults and 1 child), the room had one double bed! Needless to say it was a very tight squeeze for all of us, and there is no way a cot could've been added to the room. We were also somewhat shocked to see that people with tattoos would be asked not to use the sento (public bath/spa). It seems a rather outdated rule in 2018, particularly if being open to an international clientele. That said, I'd stay there again, but would definitely ensure we booked a larger room.

Great Place

Very nice place. The bed is comfortable, the shower worked great, it was quiet and conveniently located right by the train station. Desk staff was as helpful as they could be given a language barrier. One of them used a google app to try to explain things to me by having it change what he wrote into English. Breakfast was full of options, both Western and Japanese, and very tasty. There was an option for an onsen, but I spent the evening instead focusing on doing laundry. Their machines work well, and one machine both washes and dries afterward! About the only thing I didn't like was a strange smell in the bathroom that was like someone had eaten Japanese food and it was still there. Despite having the fan running, it hung around. I don't know where it was coming from, because everything was very clean. I would stay here again.

Nice and close to Nara station

AB Hotel Nara is a quick walk from Nara station. The rooms are very minimalist but enough to get the job done. They have washing facilities on site however the dryer was not very good. None of the staff members I spoke to could speak English but with Google translate and some hand gestures you will be fine. I would stay here again.

駅至近で立地が良く、過不足無い設備でしたが、一点改善を望みたいことがありました。ブッフェスタイルの朝食会場のレイアウトです。ご飯や味噌汁をつぐ釜などが置かれている場所が角の奥まったところで、そこでどうしても宿泊客が(ご飯をついだり味噌汁に好みの具を足すのに時間がかかるので)大渋滞となる訳です。素人目にも、レイアウトを工夫すればもっとスムーズになるのにと悲しくなりました。支配人クラスの方が誰も気づかないのか、働いているスタッフも気づかないのか、宿泊施設としての\"やる気の無さ\"はこういうところに現れると思います。がっかりしました。
