Guest Reviews
- Verified traveler (4/5): 町家 - こじんまりとした感じですが、アットホームな環境を味わえました。 町家を改装しているので、今後もっと工夫すれば、良い味わいも醸し出せると思いました。
- Susan (8/5): Nice place, very convenient. - It was very convenient but the bed was very cold. The upper bunks were hot so I wore my jacket and two pants to sleep. Otherwise a nice hostel. Nowhere to hang anything in the bathroom and shower area. Nice if towels were included.
- Chizuru (6/5): よく眠れた - 部屋が寒かった。洗面所が2つしかないので、不便だった。
- asami (10/5): 内部は田舎のおばあちゃん宅って感じです - 洗練された施設とは行きませんが、利用説明も丁寧にしていただき安心して過ごせました。 ありがとうございました。
- Collette (10/5): Nice staff - Very good location for the deer park and other sights. Arrived earlier than check in time but the hostel had send an email with the door code so we were able to leave our luggage and head out to see the sights. Rooms are a little tight and there are no curtains on the bunks but the beds are comfortable enough and the hostel was very clean. Staff member also gave us some good advice on free activities which was excellent.
- Verified traveler (8/5): 급하게 숙소가 필요하다면 - 위치는 아주 만족함 킨테츠나라역에 내려서 상점가를 지나면 됨 가격만을 생각하면 정말 훌륭한 곳임
- Verified traveler (4/5): - Great location and the staff were super friendly and seemed apologetic about the condition of the property. That said this hostel was just not for me. SUPER small common area, only one restroom per gender and one shower for everyone. The kitchen, patio and common area was cluttered. This place would be ok if it was one of my hippy friends places and they were letting me crash for the night. It wasn't what I expect for something I paid for and is a professional business.
- 。。 (10/5): - 宿の目の前に自販機もあり、近くにスーパー、コンビニ、銀行等のあらゆる施設が有るので便利だった。 また、奈良に来たら泊まりにきたい。
- じま (8/5): - 古民家の面影が残っている懐かしい雰囲気の宿でした。 リフォームしてシャワールームやトイレは新品です。 駅から近く街中にあるので奈良の社寺めぐりに最適。 宿の隣にある自販機が良心的な価格なのと、徒歩２分のところにファミマがあるので、談話のお供を調達するのに、困りません。
- dd (10/5): 駅に近い宿泊施設 - とても素敵な和風の建物で、日本の文化を味わえる。また、駅にも近いので買い物するにも便利。とてもオススメできる。
- X (6/5): - Deer Guesthouse is very centrally located in Nara - close to the Station and points of interest. It is also very inexpensive. It was pretty clean. It is quite a small place. Also, there is very little security- no locks on any of the inner doors and the manager's presence is unpredictable. The outer door has a lock but it was always open whenever I came in or left. There are small lockers to store valuables. The manager was helpful in giving useful information about the area. You can use the washer/dryer for 300 yen. The place is very low key, so it was quite easy to meet other travelers.
- aa (10/5): - It is close to two station. Very nice staff at there.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - 离近铁奈良站挺近的，可步行到奈良公园、东大寺和春日大社。但洗衣服300日元，寄存行李1000日元的一些收费感觉有点那个。。日式小旅馆，木的房子隔音都不怎么样，不过我睡得晚倒没关系。总的来说，还是性价比挺好的。
- kotaro (10/5): 奈良の中心地 - 近鉄奈良駅を使って、宿に向かったんですが行く途中で道を間違えて迷ってしまいました。早速宿に電話をして場所を確認しようとしたら、宿のオーナが親切に迎えに来てくれました。 そして、その後の対応も親身に観光のご相談にものってくれて、奈良で良い滞在になりました。 また、ここに来ます。
- Gary (10/5): Backpackers dream place - Everything was as described on the website and guest ratings are true. You get a great welcome from the two people running the guest house. It was cold outside and I was immediately offered a cup of hot tea. Washing and shower area great. Bedrooms very warm and plenty of space for your back pack. All beds have two sockets for charging phones etc. Great little music bar just 3 doors away. All beers, spirits and cocktails. Gin & Tonic great.
- Tilly (8/5): - This hostel was in a great location, but is very small and cramped inside, great if you are travelling light, not so great if you are backpacking and have big rucksacks, there was nowhere to put them apart from in the beds.
- Horace (8/5): Hotel close to the subway, walk within 10 minutes - Easy to find out the location, near the main shop street
- Samantha (10/5): Very nice stay! - I really enjoyed my stay here. The owners/managers are very considerate, helpful people and made me feel welcome right away, which, traveling alone, I really appreciated. Deer Guesthouse is very close to the big attractions in Nara, the main temples and the Nara Deer Park. There's also a lot of nice shops nearby and tasty, affordable places to eat. Deer Guesthouse has more of an older, traditional Japanese style, with sliding screens, a small garden in the middle, tatami mats etc. Though it is an older, traditional style, the WiFi was very reliable. The owner also speaks good English and he knows all about Nara and the surrounding area, so there is no trouble getting around. I thought it was very quaint and cozy as well as affordable. I would definitely stay here again and I would recommend it to others. (Sidenote; there is also a location in town called Deer Hostel which might confuse Google Maps, be sure to search Deer Guesthouse)
- Chris (10/5): Lovely - Great location.Clean place.The owner is a funny young man and I had a wonderful night there. Look forward to staying at Deer guesthouse again someday.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - It was central, staff was friendly and the room was comfortable.
