forumWhat families say
Rakuten Travel rating 4.38 out of 5 (122 reviews). Guests report that the rooms are new and clean, with large beds and a long sofa that give families room to relax. A mini kitchen and paper plates are provided, which makes it easy to eat in the room with children. On the other hand, many rooms have only a shower and no bathtub, so they do not suit parents and children who want to soak away the day. Some guests also report that the handling of a bed guard differed from what was explained when they booked, so families with small children should confirm in advance.

Overview
Fairfield by Marriott Nara Tenri Yamanobe Way sits next to the roadside station Nara Rekishi Geijutsu Bunka Mura (Nara History, Art and Culture Village) in Tenri, Nara. Guest rooms are 25 sq m twin or king types, and one child of elementary school age or under can co-sleep free of charge per adult. There is no restaurant on site, and the only meal offered is a breakfast box, which requires advance reservation. There is no communal bath or private-hire bath, and guest-room bathrooms have a shower booth only, with no bathtub. A free shuttle service also runs between the hotel and Tenri Station.
Rooms
Check-in is at 3 p.m. and checkout is at 11 a.m. The hotel has 99 guest rooms in two types, both 25 sq m and both for 1 to 2 guests: twin rooms with two beds 120 cm wide, and king rooms with one bed 180 cm wide. The beds are made by Simmons, and free high-speed Wi-Fi is available. The bathroom has the bath and toilet in separate spaces, and the bathing area is a shower booth with no bathtub, fitted with a rain shower that wraps you in a soft fall of water. Rooms are equipped with a 49-inch television, a refrigerator, a safe and a kettle.
Dining
There is no restaurant on site. If you would like breakfast, a carefully seasoned breakfast box served in jubako (stacked tiered boxes) is available with advance reservation and is collected at the front desk between 7 a.m. and 9 a.m. The Koryu Nigiwai building at the roadside station next to the hotel has a shop selling local vegetables, fruit and regional products, and the neighboring Marukatsu Tenri serves tonkatsu made with Yamato Pork, a branded Nara pork.
Baths
The bathing area in the guest rooms is a shower booth with no bathtub, fitted with a rain shower that wraps you in a soft fall of water. There is no communal bath, private-hire bath, open-air bath or onsen, so you cannot soak in a tub together with a baby or toddler.
Family-friendly points
Co-sleeping is free for one child of elementary school age or under per adult. If you would like your child to co-sleep, enter only the number of adults when booking; children's amenities are not provided, so please bring your own. A child who uses their own bedding is counted as an adult. Some accommodation plans also have set children's rates. Because the bathing area in the guest rooms is a shower booth with no bathtub, you cannot bathe a baby or toddler in a tub. Babysitting services are not available.
