Nara Visitor Center and Inn

Ubicación conveniente, personal muy amable y servicial. Habitaciones amplias y bonitas, camino público aceptable, tienda de conveniencia abierta durante el día debajo de la posada. Documentación muy útil para pasear por Nara y sus alrededores. Inmejorable a este precio, volvería a reservar sin dudarlo.

¡Dios mío! ¡ME ENCANTÓ! LA GENTE HABLA INGLÉS O CHINO MUY BIEN, ¡TANTO EN LA RECEPCIÓN COMO EN EL CENTRO DE INTERCAMBIO CULTURAL! Recomiendo encarecidamente que vengan a hospedarse aquí AL MENOS UNA VEZ EN LA VIDA. Para sentirse como un VIP, tengan una GRAN HABITACIÓN solo para ustedes y su familia y descansen y relájense con comodidad. Tienen muchas comodidades disponibles para alquilar y, si necesitan algo, solo avísenle a la recepción. Realmente te ayudan lo mejor que pueden para hacer que todo sea posible. ¡Tienen un servicio excelente! ¡Tienen un baño, una lavandería automática e incluso baños públicos para después del check out! ¡Tienen una cocina compartida que cualquiera puede usar para cocinar también! ¡Volveré la próxima vez con toda la familia para quedarnos algunas noches en lugar de solo una! Vale totalmente la pena. ¡El mejor momento que he tenido hasta ahora en Japón fue aquí! Y he estado en muchos tours e incluso en un hotel de 5 estrellas. ¡Este es realmente el mejor! Pero por la noche hace bastante frío y es difícil encontrar comida a menos que sepas caminar hasta la calle comercial cercana, ¡entonces encontrarás comida y luces! :) ¡Fue el mejor día/noche aquí! ¡Me encanta Nara!

We travel as family of 1 adult and 3 teens. Staying in a Japanese room for 3+1 for 5 nights. Room: With all futons out, not much room to move around. So we kept our 5 carry on luggage in the hallway. Not a big issue. Kitchen: good for simple cooking and heat up. Location: 15 minutes walk from JR station, 9 minutes walk from Kintetsu station, no need for a taxi. Also can walk to museum Todaiji and Kasuga Tsushima. Deers downstairs in the morning. Our room has great view of the pond and pagoda. Facilities: washing basin is on the balcony instead of with toilet and shower due to its original function as local government hostel. Public bath although not spring water, still good enough to enjoy traditional Japanese. Convenience store in basement open till 7:30pm. Small clothes drying rack is convenient for overnight underwear or socks. Reception: great service with always someone speaks languages other than Japanese. Also it has free daily activities such as making origami deers. Great place to have a relaxed tour in Nara. The downside of the place is the wifi signal a bit weak inside the room, while perfect near the hallway and inside the building. Also the coin laundry and dryers really need a good clean or replace the filter more regularly. All in all, a great experience staying in the Nara Visitor Inn! Thanks!

Nara Visitor Centre and Inn is charming place located right next to Sarasuwa pond. It is about 7 mins walk from the Kintetsu Nara station. Very near to Kofukuji temple. I stayed from 15-17 June 2023. I felt warmly received by the staff on duty at the inn. Quite a lot of them are Mandarin and English speaking. I really appreciate one of the elderly gentleman’s staff warmth when he took the time to explain to me the attractions around the inn that I can visit, and he speaks Mandarin very well! I also appreciate the other staff’s eagerness to assist when I asked them questions about tours or to recommend places for breakfast. A shoutout also to Yukina, who entertained me when I wanted to do the cosplay and Japanese calligraphy. I also really enjoyed the Japanese dance activity provided during my stay. I really enjoyed my stay here :) I booked a Japanese style room, 8 tatami mats. Spacious for 1. Toiletries provided are sufficient. view from the room showed Kofukuji temple but was blocked by a tree. The only issue I had was that I was given the room at the end of the corridor. I personally preferred not to have a room at end of corridor for personal reasons, but the room was bright, airy and comfortable, and I was happy with it so did not request for a change.

It's a very cozy & comfortable place. Very near Nara park and you can see deer everywhere and everyday that they are so lovely! Well tamed the deer approaching friendly for goodies. Hotel staff are ery friendly and professional. Beautiful place and amazing window view.

Top hostel. The tatami room is simply amazing and in the morning you can spot the deers in the park and lake right from your window.
