2-Star Hotels in Nara Prefecture, Japan

A beautiful and modern hostel. Unfortunately I never met any staff member and also no one cleaned or arranged the beds, while I was there. All the lights remained on, even in the dorm and there’s no possibility to turn them off. The dorm itself was unfortunately also quite cold, while all the other spaces were warm and cozy. Otherwise everything was okay. There was a nice common space. But in general it doesn’t feel very safe and organized, as anyone can just enter the hostel and the dorm without any key or password.

Pleasant stay with my husband, mum and auntie. The place was clean and very near the the shopping street. There is no lift, elderly might have trouble with their heavy luggage. The 2 private onsen bath has to be 'reserved' by taking the timing key chains at the counter.

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.

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.

翌朝一番の電車で吉野駅まで行って吉野山の桜を見ようと素泊まりで止まりました。和室の部屋を予約しましたが、部屋の中は一通り必要な物は全部そろっていて、トイレとお風呂は共同ですが、新しい設備でとても綺麗でした。チェックアウトは早朝は鍵を置いて出ていけばよいとのことで朝6時には宿をたち、予定通り朝一番の電車で吉野まで行けました。まだ人の少ない吉野山を朝靄の中登り始められ、午前中には吉野山の桜を満喫できました。１つだけ、朝コーヒーを飲もうと部屋のポットで作りましたが、すでにぬるくなっていて、共有スペースにあるポットは電源が入っておらず水でした。しょうがないので、ぬるく作ったコーヒーを共有スペースにある電子レンジで温めて飲みました。共有スペースのポットでお湯が飲めたらよかったなあと思いました。

This hotel is very good value hot spring is beautiful soup praise The food is not very special, but the specialty restaurant dinner is good. The price of one berth and two meals is very high value. The room is Japanese-style tatami, space is enough

Amenities and services were substantial and the best ✨ Please bring your rental items immediately! I was worried about the smell around the water and the glass of the bath cherry blossom pattern, so it's only negative 🙏 But I want to stay again!

The location is great. You can walk uphill to Mt. Wakakusa. It’s beautiful to feed the deer and watch the sunset. It’s very close to Todaiji Kasuga Taisha Shrine. The small suite with bunk beds for three people and a kitchen is so beautiful. You can make dinner and breakfast early in the morning. The deer is in front of the window, it feels like a vacation

Nice youth hostel, it is recommended to increase the front desk time and increase the bicycle service. Because there are only 4 car rental services in front of Tianli Station, it will not be available.

The stay experience exceeded expectations! Five-star recommendation for this treasure hotel! This stay completely refreshed my perception of business hotels! From the moment I stepped into the lobby, I was impressed by the hotel's modern and simple style and the warm and thoughtful service of the staff. The front desk lady smiled kindly and reminded me of the surrounding traffic routes when checking in. The details were perfect! The room was even more surprising! The room was spacious and bright, the floor-to-ceiling windows had a wide view, and the softness of the bedding was comparable to the Simmons mattress at home. The service was really heartwarming.
