Guest Reviews

• n (9/5): また利用したい！ - 奈良公園の中で窓から鹿が見れ、静かなところでゆっくりできました。 滞在の目当てだった二月堂にも近く良い立地でしたし、設備はシンプルですが快適でした。 バスタブが無いのが残念。
• Lutz (10/5): -
• Victor (10/5): Cute stay with the deers ^_^ - This is the perfect place to stay in Nara if you love nature and you came to see the deers. They are literally right there in front of the door when you come out 😊. The room is clean, spacious and the showers facility is also well taken care of. The breakfast upstairs is simple and tasty. Me and my friend love to walk and although a bit far from the city they provide a little flashlight to walk in the forest so it doesn’t feel overwhelming at night.
• Jan (9/5): -
• WENJIAN (10/5): - 房东特别友善
• Sylvain (4/5): Déception - Très bien situé Le parking gratuit est en fait payant en cash et sans quittance et est donc refacturé plusieurs fois en deux nuits par chaque réceptionniste… l’isolation phonique des chambres est inexistante et la cuisine est un spot d’Urbex sale.
• Sierra (10/5): -
• Sylvie (8/5): - Séjour de 2 nuits très agréable. Chambre confortable. Situé dans le Deer Park. Le centre ville est facilement accessible à pied ou en bus Pas de possibilité de petit déjeuner sur place
• ryuji (10/5): もう一回利用したい宿 - ロケーションがよく、スタッフの方の対応も気持ちが良かったです。
• Robbe Siongers (10/5): Best stay so far in Nara - Amazing area Very friendly staff Lovely common Room
• Wen (6/5): Noisy - Good location. Noise from neighboring rooms.
• Yu Man (10/5): 住第三次還是很喜歡這裡! - 可以看到清晨吃櫻花散步的鹿、也可以看到黃昏成群走入森林的鹿群，超推薦住在公園裡的! 住第三次還是很喜歡這裡的住宿環境，四月初的晚上會比較冷，開空調就可以了，staff親切且笑容可愛，周邊餐廳咖啡廳大多4-5點關門，非常推薦鹿園上面的咖啡廳，三明治很好吃。如果想自煮可以在車站的超市買好，超市熟食也很多種類，生魚片好吃。行李多的人或入夜後要回鹿園的話，推薦搭計程車，大約¥1400-1600間很划算的 This was my third stay here, and I still really enjoyed the accommodations. Early April evenings can be quite chilly, but the air conditioning is sufficient. The staff are friendly and have lovely smiles. Most restaurants and cafes in the area close around 4-5 pm. I highly recommend the cafe above the deer park; their sandwiches are delicious. If you want to cook, you can buy food at the supermarket near the station; they have a wide variety of prepared foods, including tasty sashimi. For those with a lot of luggage or who need to return to the deer park after nightfall, I recommend taking a taxi; it costs around ¥1400-1600 per room, which is very reasonable.
• Ken (8/5): - The location is up a large staircase with a side door entrance which can be challenging but in the middle of Nara park which is nice. Staff is informative and check in smooth. Great value for money. Service and amenities are limited and basic. The room is rudimentary, simple mattress with a draping curtain. Not aesthetically pleasing on the inside as it isn't painted or furnished but it gets the job done.
• Taro (10/5): のんびり過ごせた - ロケーションが最高です。 特になし
• KAYOKO (8/5): とても良かった。 - とにかく静かで、奈良らしさを満喫できました。 シャワーが共有なので、少しだけ不便ですが、その他は快適です。
• Gaël (10/5): - The view, the hospitality of the staff.
• Rita (10/5): Rilassante - Guesthouse accogliente , molto pulita e personale gentilissimo e disponibile. Immersa nella natura ma con servizi raggiungibili con una piacevole passeggiata nel parco!
• Shinichirou (8/5): -
• Valerie (10/5): Biche et beau temps parfait - Les biches ! Rien
• Masanobu (10/5): - とてもきれいです。部屋も広くてゆったりできる。共用の部屋も広くお湯も沸かせて便利。
• Lina (10/5): Amazing place if you love deer 🦌🦌🦌💞😍 - 📍Amazing place!!!!!! ❤️❤️😍😍😍 Since we love animals so much, we loved the deers everywhere. Wish we stayed more than 1 night. Souvenir shop next to the hotel, there you can buy special cookies to feed the deer. Beautiful view with deer outside the window (in our room). Shrine is also so close!!!! Such a beautiful and underrated place. If you love animals and spending time with them a lot, then this is the perfect place for you. 🦌 🛏️ Room was clean and nice, bed was comfortable! If you feel cold, turn on the heater! Loved everything here. In our room we had small table and two chairs. So happy about that. There were also toiletries and place to hang your clothes. Common rooms were nice and it was comfy to use them. Even though shower and toilets were for common use, there was a lot of strong privacy feeling :) 💞👍 🚿🎶 Shovers and toilet is common and shared with other people. Walls are pretty thin, can hear whats going on outside, and have to be silent in your room. That was not a problem for us ❤️ 👍 host was so nice and helpful! We felt really welcome at the hotel! Loved everything ❤️
• KAYOKO (8/5): -
• Millie (9/5): Amazing, we would stay again! - We loved the location, the staff were amazing, bathrooms were clean, view from the room was lovely. We would stay again! 😊 Beds were a little firm, but very clean
• Gerlinde (7/5): Eine außergewöhnliche Unterkunft - Die Lage im hinteren Teil des Rehparks, in der Nachbarschaft des Kasuga Taisha Schreines ist unübertroffen. Vom Bus sind es 13 Minuten Fußweg durch den Park. Die Waschbecken sind allen Blicken ausgesetzt. In der Küche regnet es rein.
• GONNET (7/5): - L'emplacement, la gentillesse du personnel, le confort des lits. Le sol de la salle commune avec ses réparations de fortune avec des planches à cause desquelles j'ai bien failli me retrouver par terre !
• Grzegorz (8/5): -
• Ingvild Kolrud (9/5): -
• Omnia (10/5): - tout était top, le personnel très gentil, l’emplacement était incroyable loin de la foule, et les équipements au top plus tres propre

• Anna (10/5): -
• Marjorie (10/5): Ótimo para visitar o parque dos cervos :) - Boa localização para quem pretende explorar o Parque! Os funcionários também são muito gentis e cordiais. Forneceram muitas informações sobre a região, horário dos comércios e atrações. O comércio e restaurante fecham cedo no parque, então é preciso se preparar para isso. Mas não tive nenhuma problema ;)
• Sui Kim (10/5): 大家一定要住这里，下次我来我也要住这里 - 大爱这个住宿 房间很大，床也非常大及舒服，步行及交通方便。它家的员工也非常友善。上个楼梯有咖啡馆 喜欢它的休息的空间及它的厨房 没有
• Thio Huan (10/5): Our stay at Deer Park Inn was truly one of a kind. The location is simply perfect—peaceful and close to nature. Waking - Deers is outside door & window Complete and nice kitchen Nothing
• Koutarou (9/5): 東大寺、二月堂歩いて行ける好立地のおしゃれで綺麗な宿。建物前まで鹿が来るのはレア。 - 立地は最高、宿の方も日本人でとても親切丁寧。部屋割の際相談に乗ってくれました。部屋が簡素だけどオシャレでした。ちょっと真似したい。キッチン洗面シャワーも使いやすく清潔で良かったです。宿の連絡の時点で季節の見どころとかイベントも案内してくださって予定に組み込みました。駐車場も近くに別料金で停めれるので助かりました。北欧のホテルみたいな感じで高級感感じました。 朝7時台などで身支度していたが、洗面のあたり電気がつかなく暗かった。キッチン、リビングも電気のスイッチ？ないので内線で宿の人に連絡したらすぐ付けてくれましたが、最初ちょっと戸惑った。けど、困ったのはそれくらい。ちゃんと対応してくれます。
• Pui-Yam (9/5): Pour les amoureux des espaces verts :) - La proximité avec les cerfs, la forêt et les temples. Le personnel super sympathique. La chambre avec vue sur les cerfs le matin. 🥰 20min à pied de la gare et tout autant en bus, car il ne vaut pas jusque-là. Avec de lourdes valises, vaut mieux prendre un taxi.
• 宇津 (9/5): コスパ最高 - ロケーションが良く、スタッフの方がとても親切です。必要最小限の設備はそろっており、心地よい空間が旅の疲れを癒してくれました。 壁が若干薄かった点です。私は気にならなかったですが、神経質な人には気になるレベルだと思います。
• Murata (10/5): -
• Towako (10/5): チャンスがあれば、また泊まりたい - 代金がかなりお得だったので、ちょっと心配していましたが、ドアを開けて施設に入ってすぐに若い女性スタッフが明るく出迎えてくれて、すぐに安心ささました。スタッフは全員若かったですが、とても感じよく、気持ち良く過ごせました。ありがとうございました！
• Pierre (9/5): - Bel endroit
• April (9/5): Exceptional value for money - Beautiful surroundings. Very helpful and friendly staff. Great kitchen area for cooking. Slightly cold
• Vincent (10/5): - Very nice staff
• DANIEL (6/5): - Dans le parc Le bruit des voisins de chambre
• Jocelyn (10/5): Tranquil and Picturesque - One of the most peaceful and rejuvenating stays I have ever experienced. I will be returning in a different season and hopefully I can return for all 4 seasons in my lifetime. N/A
• Pittaluga (9/5): It was nice - I loved seeing the deer and walking through the park every day I wanted to send my luggage but they didn’t pick up the phone so I had to drag it all the way from Hakone which was very inconvenient
• Loane (8/5): Slow break in the middle of Nara's park - Quiet and slow Inn. The staff is super nice, such lovely people. Having deers next door is something to experience once in a lifetime. Truly comfortable beds. For peace seekers, this place is your go to. Be aware that it is in the middle of Nara's park, thus, you have to leave for the center to eat/shop.
• Kyoko (10/5): どっぷり「お水取り」参拝できました。 - スタッフさんの配慮ある対応 トイレ便座の温かさが欲しかったです。
• Corrie (10/5): You won't find a better place to stay in Nara if you are interested in the deer and surrounding temples that make th - Right in the heart of Nara Park and so beautifully peaceful at night There is nothing not to like about this hostel. It has done a great job of everything and the staff are wonderful
• Cassandra (4/5): - Le personnel était tres simpas Il n'y a pas de rideaux dans la chambre, on entend trop le bruit. Le lit n'est pas confortable. Et les toilettes ne sont pas propres. On a vraiment pas bien dormis..
• Bylina (9/5): Generally we liked this hostel a lot - perfect location, friendly staff, very nice interior - Perfect location and very cozy interior In March it was too cold in common areas:(
• Emilia (10/5): -
• Shigeko (8/5): また泊まりたいなと思いました。 - 全てに広く余裕があり清潔でしたし、キッチンも使いやすかったです。 良くなかった点はないのですが、トイレが男女共用で二つのみでしたので少し緊張しました。しかし全く問題なかったです。
• hopfanton (10/5): - Sehr ruhig gelegen, aber doch zentral. Man ist schnell überall und hat die Rehe gleich vor der Haustür. Das Personal war super nett und hat gute Tipps gegeben. Wir können uns nicht beschweren.
• Manon (10/5): Les biches à la fenêtre - Être directement dans le parc, les parties communes conviviales et propices aux rencontres, l'accueil chaleureux et le service de lingerie avec lave linge et sèche linge très rapide Le sol grince beaucoup, attention si vous avez le sommeil léger
• Gianluca (8/5): -
• Bonnie (10/5): -
• Julia (10/5): - On apprécie le style retro/scandinave, le lit super confortable, la cuisine commune ordonnée et classe, le café agaçant spacieux avec café de spécialité et produits locaux abordables. Le personnel est particulièrement adorable parlant très bien l'anglais. Vous êtes stratégiquement placé pour visiter avant tout le monde les temples à côté qui s'ouvrent à 7h et à 8h. Le froid dans les toilettes
• Shackell (9/5): -
• K.C.G (10/5): - Excellent location.
• Niko (8/5): -
• Formicidae (10/5): -
• Nathalie (6/5): -
• Jennifer (10/5): Classic hostel experience, and in such an interesting setting. We loved every moment! - Actual community space with kitchen and lounging areas, which is hard to find these days. This hostel reminded me of my traveling days many years ago, it's a classic. No complaints. This building will need funding to maintain, and I hope it gets that so that generations to come can enjoy meeting fellow travelers and sleeping among the deer.
• Emilie (10/5): Auberge au cœur des cerfs - L’emplacement est parfait. Le staff est vraiment au petit soin, toujours souriant, ils sont vraiment très gentils !
• Madina (9/5): -
• yawen (10/5): 超越预期 - 店主非常友善，听到我要看日落时非常耐心地讲解，帮我安排整个日程，孩子遇到困难时也非常热心地帮助。虽然不像星级酒店一样豪华，但是住得舒适方便，楼上有咖啡厅，楼下有茶室，走几步就是公园入口。晚上想吃喝可以在厨房自己做，有餐具厨具冰箱，还有茶有咖啡粉可可粉；也能走去7-11，其实很安全。总之住在这里是非常正确的选择。btw，the innkeeper is so handsome！ 没有
• Ma (9/5): 好 - 地理位置很好，出门就是奈良公园，旁边就是若曹山 房间隔音不是很好
• Natalie (10/5): -
• Utsav (7/5): -
• Pierre-philippe (6/5): -
• Kate (10/5): -
• Aine (5/5): - Cosy vibes, bed was comfy and warm once you were in it. Great showers lovely to walk out the door and be in the park inn the morning. Its freezing! Gaps everywhere in windows and walls, and a cold breeze blowing. No hot water in the taps, showers were phenomenonal I will say. Location in winter isn't ideal, no getting to see parts of the park once the groups have left and with nowhere to eat and no buses it's a 20 mins walk in the dark to get back. Summer it might all be much nicer. I've been warmer in a bothy.
• Amy (7/5): - Beds were comfortable and the location was really nice (bit of a trek from the station, I recommend a taxi to and from if you have luggage as it's all uphill) Staff were friendly and gave tips on places to visit which was nice. Kitchen/sitting area was pleasant surprise, and quite nice Was overall quite clean, except for the concern listed below Restaurants and conbinis are a bit far, so plan your meals ahead of time - but they do have cupnoodles just in case which is nice Best thing is definitely being in the park. Todaiji Temple and Tasugataisha Shrine are about 15 mins away, you walk outside and can pet deer. All that considering, it's a great place. Shower room looked like there was mold on the ceiling which was a bit unnerving Sound proofing from outside the hotel is great, but inside you can hear EVERYTHING, especially with some people being a bit loud (I'm sure not on purpose, I probably also seemed loud to some) If you have mobility issues this is not a good location - stairs up and down to the hotel and all uphill
• 谷 (10/5): 一年の計は、ザ・ディア・パークインにあり。 - 水まわりが清潔なこと。 スタッフの方々の笑顔。 部屋の中から鹿たちをずっと眺めていられること。 設備や対応に、旅慣れたスタッフのセンスを感じられること ありません。
• CHIA WEN (9/5): いい心地が良くった、自分らしい過ごし方で。 - 場所は駅から離れているけど、行きたいところに近くて、逆に良かったです ゆったりとした空間と雰囲気
• Yolanda (10/5): -
• Hanae (8/5): - Head tech massage Minimalist and relaxing Washroom does not have Toto washlet
• Mark Carlo (10/5): - The staffs are friendly and they can speak english really well. The room is nice and clean.
• 山本 (8/5): -
• Sabine (10/5): l'hôtel des daims - L'hôtel est idéalement situé avec les daims devant la porte le matin et les temples tout proche a pieds, le salon et la cuisine façon loft sont top et les équipements corrects dans l'ensemble. La chambre était grande avec 5 lits ( nous étions 3) mais il manquait 1 petite table d'appoint entre les 2 paires de lits superposés, j'aurais apprécié de pouvoir poser mes petites affaires courantes ( lunettes, bijoux...) Je recommande et reviendrais avec plaisir. Le parking voiture à 1500 yens la nuit
• Luca Marciano (7/5): - Sleeping in the middle of the park was a nice experience - seeing deer strolling around or napping outside of your window is cool. The lodge is very nice-looking, the room spacious, the staff kind. It is convenient to reach all of the main attractions of the park. The common areas are way too cold. It does not make sense to have such a cozy common room with tea and coffee if you cannot keep it warm properly. There was just a heater in the middle of the room and it was turned on just a few hours per day. In order to feel some warmth you had to sit one centimeter from it. The place is well-kept in terms of cleanliness, but it is dated and maybe in need of some work: walls are thin and floors make so much noise when you walk on them. During the first night there was a bit wind and there would be super loud noises from the wall/windowpane that we could not sleep properly. Also as soon as other guests move around a bit you just hear it a lot. They should also provide some earplugs in the reception because I guess the staff are aware of these problems. Unfortunately the do not. It is important to notice for those who book that this is more like a lodge rather than a hotel, a rather good one all in all. Juts the noise and the cold are two big issues.
• kanoa (9/5): Very good - Right in the park, kitchen good have had a bit more facilities Kitchen also not very clean
• Laetitia (10/5): - L'auberge est au milieu du parc de Nara, on s'est couché et levé après avoir vu les dains. La salle commune est très pratique et on peut s'y faire tranquillement à manger. Le personnel était très sympathique. La chambre est spacieuse. Un rapport qualité prix incroyable
• Prashanth (9/5): - Great location close to every other tourist spot It’s an inn. Don’t expect comfort of hotels
• Katarzyna (10/5): The best stay - Everything was awesome!!! It was our best stay in Japan. The place was amazing, cozy and warm. The staff was very very kind and helpful, highly reccomend !!
• Joanne (8/5): Had one night and really happy with the hostel. A great place to stay - Location right in the park. Comfy rooms, nice shared kitchen area, fab cafe. Deer right outside the window. Nothing.
• Valeria (7/5): -
• Connor (8/5): Homey stay in Nara in a Great location. - Friendly staff, amazing location with deer out the window. Cold water in the sinks
• RATIKANT (10/5): -
• Katrina (9/5): Stay inside the deer park! - Amazing little hostel to stay inside the deer park, big room with shared bathroom, but facilities were super clean so it wasn’t an issue.
• TAKAHASHI (9/5): ロケーション、スタッフ最高 - 春日大社、若草山まですぐでロケーション最高。 スタッフの方々もとても気持ち良い方ばかりです。 リピーターです。 眺望ありのシングルは以前に泊まったので、初めてマウンテンビューの部屋を利用しました。 マウンテンビューという事でしたが、山が見える訳ではなかったです。 マウンテンビュー、眺望ありの記載はせず、シングル、ツインの表記だけにした方が良いのでは？
• MOLLIE (10/5): What a great value and in a beautiful location! - It’s in the middle of the park. Being there after most tourists leave and before they get there is amazing! The hotel itself is so welcoming and clean. Beds were the most comfortable I’ve slept on in Japan. The hotel hosts were very kind and helpful. The shared bathrooms and showers are clean and the water pressure is perfect and warm. The community lounge was a great hangout. I highly recommend this place! That I had to leave.
• Aydar (10/5): - Расположение прекрасное, персонал очень чуткий, рассказывает обо всем что нужно. Очень хороший сервис, вид потрясающий. Душ и туалеты хорошие, есть общая кухня с горячими напитками
• Julia (8/5): Très bien - situé en plein dans le parc au milieu des daims, chambres et douches équipées, pièce principale agréable et cuisine
• Tereza Ditrich (9/5): -
• Julia (9/5): - Rustic accommodation right in the middle of the park, great for wandering around to see the deer. Nice cozy common area. A little bit challenging to get to without a car or taxi. Can walk there but it's through the park with your luggage.
• mathilde (10/5): - le personnel est serviable et très aimable, l'emplacement est parfait, la chambre est spacieux et confortable, + on a le droit a une reduction au café d'en haut, très bon rapport qualité prix 👌 je reviendrai avec des amis
• Josh (10/5): Fantastic location and comfortable well priced accomodation. Highly recommend! - Location was 10/10 and value for money couldn't have been better. The only thing of note was that we had a whole family room for only 2 people (which felt wasteful) however the other rooms were full and we enjoyed the stay. It was all excellent.
• Lars (9/5): - Conveniently located right in the park, nice lounge to hangout, and very friendly staff. There are no restaurants nearby open after 5 PM, meaning that going out for dinner requires some walking back and forth.
• Cristian (10/5): -
