The Deer Park Inn

2.0 star property
9.0 out of 10, Wonderful, (216)
"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.

Tsukihitei Ryokan

4.0 star property
9.8 out of 10, Exceptional, (45)
"A hidden gem right in the heart of Nara Park, tucked away on a small hill, surrounded by verdant greens. Purely magical, a sanctuary that stands in stark contrast the frenzy of the deer feeding tourists and the bustle of Osaka! There are 3 western style rooms (useful for those who can’t sleep on tatami floors), underfloor heating, air conditioning and private dining rooms with personalised service! We felt so pampered. Service was top notch with one of the best kaiseki dinners and breakfast...

3.0 star property
8.4 out of 10, Very Good, (16)
"Relax in the bath set on the balcony while watching the wonderful view. This is a hideaway inn that Japanese people don't know too much. We recommend this ryokan if you want to experience a real high quality Japanese ryokan service. In order to do so, you must also learn Japanese culture and manners before staying."
