2-Star Hotels in Nara Prefecture, Japan

This place had a great location to some of the sites to visit and also offered parking for a very reasonable fee to qhich I needed due to me renting a car. All the staff were very nice and helpful. Rooms are basic but very functional and clean and this place had a laundry facility which proved very useful. I would highly recommend this place

Good location, facilities and amenities. The room was a bit cramped for 2 people with 2 medium luggage, but if you travel light it was a nice hotel for short stays 👍

Read this review carefully because it provides a very specific insight. Good things first. Very clean and amazing planning of the place. I loved the garden. Also, nice to have a well water spot with coffee and tea. You can leave your luggage at the counter and go walking till checking-in. I got 110 small dorm. Bedding was great. Each bed had a rest area for work. Bad things. I was given bed #1, which is near the door. At around 6AM two tenants from upstairs started going in and out non-stop. Hence, I had 0 sleep after 6 AM. Check-out is at 10:00, meaning I lost at least 2-3 hours of sleep. The door is very loud and the wall shook next to my bed. I don’t even mention that sound was also loud upstairs. The owners could oil the door parts and, for example, plan upstairs area better to reduce the noise. So, if you plan to come late and have good sleep this place and its dormitories is unlikely for you.

This place was so cute and excellent. Staff didn't speak much English, but we were able to communicate easily enough. Room was Japanese Ryokan style. Tatami mats, low table. It had everything needed, shower and toilet in the room too. There is also an onsen that you can reserve for your private use. I asked for a time later at night and they still had one spot available. If you can't get a time then it is ”public use” after 22:00, which seems to mean that you might need to share if others want to join. Location was very good, right in the middle of the historic part of town and a short walk (＜5 min) to Nara park to see the deer. Hotel was very nice and clean. I was here in late December and the air conditioning heater in the room was very good too.

The service is very good Japanese-style hotel, the hotel owner will drive to Yoshinoya to pick up and drop off guests. The hotel is very clean and the shoes at the door are always neatly placed. The Japanese-style room is clean and tidy, and the balcony window is a cherry tree. Dinner and breakfast are very rich. Every staff member is smiling and polite. Traditional Japanese style bathing style, indoors and outdoors. There are also free massage chairs in the public area.

I have been to Nara several times and I try a different hotel every time. Having stayed here, I think I will stay here again when I come to Nara in the future. As others said, there were deer outside the door in the morning, and the guy at the front desk spoke very good English. As for parking service, you can rent it from the grocery store opposite

It was very good Meal, room, bath, location, great and you can rest assured that you're working with a friendly and bright person Shampoo rinse was also very good. It was 2 nights ３ day, but the dishes were delicious without getting tired of pork, venison, salt-grilled salmon, tofu, and various ingredients. If you go again, I will make it a tarashi or an inn.

I stayed here on a solo trip. As other people have said in their reviews, the staff were really polite and welcoming. I was very grateful. The private room was spacious enough just to sleep. The bedding was clean. However, since it's all made of wood, it may be best not to place delicate items directly on it. The washroom and shower room were very clean and easy to use. I would like to stay here again when I visit Tenri (or Nara). Thank you.

Overall, I was quite satisfied, meeting my expectations. The price was relatively reasonable, and the value for money was good. The facilities were complete, with a bathroom and shared washing machine within the B&B. Although there was only one bathroom, I didn't have to worry about long waits. There was also a kitchen available, and the overall cleanliness was excellent. The nearest bus stop is 300 meters away, so transportation and the surrounding area are acceptable. The owner is Chinese and speaks Mandarin without any issues. Room 201 was quite small, practically covered entirely with mattresses, and only accommodated a 28-inch suitcase, though the owner had explained in advance. Note that there are few people nearby, and most of them are elderly, so please keep your voice down both on the way and in the room.

Located in a quiet quaint neighborhood. It was storming so I didn't get an opponent to enjoy the river and it's surrounding which the accommodation was just next to. But the spacious room came as a joy but unfortunately the beddings were not comfortable. Could feel the bed springs and the pillow overly soft. Wished that they provided tatami beddings instead. Check in details were not provided via booking on trip.com but thankfully could easily contact the owner via WhatsApp. Overall still a great experience.
