This was by far my favourite stay of my Japan trip. Not only was the guest house absolutely stunning and tastefully furnished, within very close proximity to the deer park, I was welcomed so warmly and it really felt like home for the night I was there. This is more than just a guest house- this is a beautiful place to bring people from all around the world together.

I was very fortunate that there were no other guests staying in the house and I had the whole space to myself, very spacious and comfortable, and the hostess Kyoko was so friendly and accommodating. I highly recommend this place, close to Nara Deer Park.

I traveled with my family (7 people in total) and we loved how spacious and cozy was Nara Guesthouse 3F, offering both Japanese and Western rooms. We also loved the location - central, within walking distance from Kintetsu Nara Station, Nara Park, supermarkets, and dining facilities.

Great location, just a few minutes walk away from the main business streets and 20mn from the park. The room and facilities are great for the price, brilliant value. Don’t expect a 5 star hotel, but for the same price in Europe you’d get one bed in an 8-bed dormitory, 40mn outside town. So this is great. They even let us check in early.

    Absolutely incredible comfort and hospitality. The owner is exceptionally friendly and outgoing. Fells like a homestay rather than a hostel. Great way to meet new people also.

    You're made to feel welcome as soon as you step through the door. Hiroko and Dane were great hosts and the place provided us with everything we needed, including a nice breakfast. We got a lift to the train station when we were leaving as it was raining - a very nice gesture.
