Hotel NARA Visitor Center and Inn

630-8361 Nara, Nara, Ikeno-cho 3, Japan –

Lock in a great price for NARA Visitor Center and Inn – rated 9.3 by recent guests!

to get started.

I made this almost as a previous day reservation but had no regrets at all! The hotel is very nice and I feel it's a very good price/quality ratio. Everything in the room was perfect. Staff was super friendly, and even one of them was super excited because he heard I was from Costa Rica, and he would have the chance of practicing his spanish! I didn't have the chance of going to the bathhouse, so I can't comment on that.

Andres, Costa Rica

But lucky, the hotel provided a "Handy" smartphone.

Irwan, Japan

Great location, great view from the room, very large room.

Daniel, Canada

The staff was genuinely nice and helpful, the room was extremely comfortable, the location fabulous!

Jolanta, Poland

Very good location with a view of the 5 story Pagoda. Neighbourhood is very quiet. My husband and son enjoyed the coffee vendo on ground floor.

Grace, Philippines

Clean room with comfortable tatami. Staff are very friendly.

Chris, Canada

The room is Japanese style and very comfortable. The facilities are nice and useful.

Firenxy, Hong Kong

Japanese breakfast and japanese room style. Everybody was very kind!

Alejandro, Japan

The exterior of the building gives no hint of the traditional/contemporary styling of the rooms within. We have a beautifully spacious double room on the top floor overlooking the Sarusawaike Pond and the stunning pagoda of the Kohfukuji Temple.

Nicholas, United Kingdom

Excellent, friendly, informative staff. Top notch service. Clean and comfortable! Great location! A +++
