The inn was perfectly located between the town and Nara park, and the view from our room overlooked a beautiful pond. Deer were roaming around everywhere. Walking around the area was quite lovely. The staff were so warm, welcoming, and helpful—it was truly a joy to spend the night here.

Our second stay in 7 years. Although the famous 5 story tower is in long term renovation, the location is still best in our opinion. It very quiet and typical Japanese style residential area.walkable distance to major attractions and shopping. Hope this facility will still be around. It’s a visit center too, so lot of information and culture activities.

Lovely room. Delightful location. Bowing deer right outside to greet you every morning. Usually with a headbutt for a cracker but it is lovely anyway. Such a pity that it is closing forever. Glad we got in two weeks before the end. It was a wonderful place to spend our final night in Japan.
