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.

super beautiful and serene, the welcoming was above and beyond. The host picked up our luggage from the train station and waited for us, even though we were 20 minutes late. we were invited to a beautiful morning prayer and were served a delicious breakfast. just a beautiful stay in a traditional Japanese house.

We had such an amazing time at Machiya no Yado Gu! The house gave us the feeling of traditional Japan, while being kitted out with all the modern amenities we could have wished for. Spacious, quiet, tastefully designed - and an unbeatable location a stone’s throw away from Nara park. Best of all, we had one of the most incredible hosts we’ve ever encountered. He went out of his way to generously help us every step of the way. Even drove us to the train station on his actual birthday! Can’t wait to be back!

Thomas

From

France

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.

We came a little late for check in, but the hosts still were waiting for us. So, kind people and nice atmosphere - that's the biggest plus of Nara Guesthouse Kamunabi. If we could, we would stay for a more long time in that place. Nice people there really made our time.
