Thank you for hosting us! ##### Sasha Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Laura Mar 9, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This lodging was perfect for visiting the park. Facility was clean, quiet, our room was spacious, & the staff very friendly. They let us know about evening lantern event, and breakfast available for purchase at 9am in a cafe near by. Location in the park is convienent for some travelers without transportation visiting the park. It was a short hike from the bus stop at the museum. Could use a sign at the bottom of hill on bus route for lodging location. Of the park workers we asked, no one seemed to know where "The Deer Park Inn" was located. We followed the walking route on google maps to find it from the museum. As a hostel our room had western style bunk beds, which were nice. Property is not wheelchair accessible. They do provide this information on thier website, but take note it is located on a hill & there are many stairs. ##### Laura Stayed 1 night in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### YIU CHUNG Aug 17, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Unique location and super close interaction with deers.

The bathrooms are not in your room, but very clean! My daughter loved here, so we will go back again!! ##### Junko ### 10/10 Excellent #### Belen Mar 16, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Felt very welcome and also thankful to the staff who recommended that we get food before everything closed in the area. They sent emails prior, to warn us which was great. The hotel is a little old but clean. I had a very simple room with a double bed and AC unit, shared bathroom and shower. They let us store our luggage a few hours in the morning after check out. Overall loved how close it was to the temples. I would definitely stay here again! ##### Belen Stayed 1 night in Mar 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Nov 4, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort The facility has thin walls and creaky floors so if you are a light sleeper, this may wake you up. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2023 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Randlyn Apr 28, 2023 Disliked: Staff & service Very disappointed ##### Randlyn Stayed 1 night in Apr 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Michael Jul 3, 2023 Liked: Staff & service, room comfort #### Great location deep inside of Nara Park. First off: the listing says laundry facilities are available, but they are not (yet). This is important because the nearest laundromat is 30 minutes away. Otherwise, it's a wonderful place to stay overnight in Nara. We spent 3 nights enjoying the park. Deer right outside every morning. 2 great restaurants right down the stairs, but everything nearby closes around 16:00\. Drink machines abound, but plan to stock up at the 7-11 at the park entrance (15 minutes) to cook dinner or have snacks at the Inn. They offer a small selection of instant ramen and such you can purchase for 200 yen in the kitchen if you forget and are hungry. Very kind staff. Just keep in mind you won't have access to laundry or convenient store hours. ##### Michael Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mathis Nov 17, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Le séjour était au top, personnel agréable ! ##### Mathis Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Park Hyatt Niseko Hanazono](https://www.expedia.ca/Niseko-Hotels-Park-Hyatt-Niseko-Hanazono.h38527384.Hotel-Information) > > [Konansou](https://www.expedia.ca/Fujikawaguchiko-Hotels-Konansou.h9145049.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Chariot Hokutoshichisei 135°](https://www.expedia.ca/Awaji-Hotels-Grand-Chariot-Hokutoshichisei-135.h34745847.Hotel-Information) > > [Yumotokan](https://www.expedia.ca/Otsu-Hotels-Yumotokan.h7028149.Hotel-Information) > > [Courtyard By Marriott Kyoto Shijo Karasuma](https://www.expedia.ca/Kyoto-Hotels-Courtyard-By-Marriott-Kyoto-Shijo-Karasuma.h20518950.Hotel-Information) > > [The Ritz-Carlton, Okinawa](https://www.expedia.ca/Okinawa-Hotels-The-Ritz-Carlton.h5117262.Hotel-Information) > > [Kawaguchiko Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Kofu-Hotels-Kawaguchiko-Hotel.h12991356.Hotel-Information) > > [ASO Farm Land](https://www.expedia.ca/Aso-Hotels-ASO-Farm-Land.h11868090.Hotel-Information) > > [Fuji Marriott Hotel Lake Yamanaka](https://www.expedia.ca/Yamanakako-Hotels-Fuji-Marriott-Hotel-Lake-Yamanaka.h17705474.Hotel-Information) > > [HOSHINOYA Okinawa](https://www.expedia.ca/Okinawa-Hotels-HOSHINOYA-Okinawa.h40226148.Hotel-Information) > > [Fuji View Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Kofu-Hotels-Fuji-View-Hotel.h2333483.Hotel-Information) > > [Rusutsu Resort Hotel & Convention](https://www.expedia.ca/Niseko-Hotels-Rusutsu-Resort-Hotel-Convention.h3948188.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Regency Tokyo Bay](https://www.expedia.ca/Tokyo-Hotels-Hyatt-Place-Tokyo-Bay.h35893302.Hotel-Information) > > [Fuji Speedway Hotel - The Unbound Collection by Hyatt](https://www.expedia.ca/Oyama-Hotels-Fuji-Speedway-Hotel.h82927328.Hotel-Information) > > [Wakakusa no Yado Maruei Ryokan](https://www.expedia.ca/Kofu-Hotels-Wakakusa-No-Yado-Maruei-Ryokan.h6136631.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Clad](https://www.expedia.ca/Gotemba-Hotels-Hotel-Clad.h38381266.Hotel-Information) > > [Fujisan Onsen Bessho SASA](https://www.expedia.ca/Kofu-Hotels-Fujisan-Onsen-Bessho-SASA.h14626817.Hotel-Information) > > [Fujisan Onsen Hotel Kaneyamaen](https://www.expedia.ca/Fujiyoshida-Hotels-Fujisan-Onsen-Hotel-Kaneyamaen.h14626290.Hotel-Information) > > [Oriental Hotel Tokyo Bay](https://www.expedia.ca/Tokyo-Hotels-Oriental-Hotel-Tokyo-Bay.h1041843.Hotel-Information) > > [Ooike Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Kofu-Hotels-Ooike-Hotel.h5620879.Hotel-Information) > > [La Vista Fuji Kawaguchiko](https://www.expedia.ca/Kofu-Hotels-La-Vista-Fuji-Kawaguchiko.h15976788.Hotel-Information) > > [Lakeland Hotel Mizunosato](https://www.expedia.ca/Kofu-Hotels-Lakeland-Hotel-Mizunosato.h10608801.Hotel-Information) > > [Fufu Kawaguchiko](https://www.expedia.ca/Kofu-Hotels-FUFU-KAWAGUCHIKO.h33760212.Hotel-Information) > > [Highland Resort Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Kofu-Hotels-Highland-Resort-Hotel-Spa.h990130.Hotel-Information) > > [Fuji Onsenji Yumedono](https://www.expedia.ca/Kofu-Hotels-Fuji-Onsenji-Yumedono.h9635420.Hotel-Information) > > [Nishiyama Onsen Keiunkan](https://www.expedia.ca/Hayakawa-Hotels-Nishiyama-Onsen-Keiunkan.h37148164.Hotel-Information) > > [HOTEL MYSTAYS Fuji Onsen Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Kofu-Hotels-HOTEL-MYSTAYS-Fuji-Onsen-Resort.h16114229.Hotel-Information) > > [Kasuitei Ohya](https://www.expedia.ca/Kofu-Hotels-Kasuitei-Ohya.h13002262.Hotel-Information) ### Cars
