“The Deer Park Inn places you directly inside Nara Park, meaning immediate access to the area's famous deer and walking distance to Wakakusayama Hill; expect a rustic but serviceable experience. I think its unique location makes this property a worthwhile consideration for travelers prioritizing immersion in Nara's natural beauty.”

Enchanting stay among the deer

I loved being right inside the park. It was special. The location made exploring very easy, especially early in the morning. The staff were kind (very kind, actually) and helpful with directions. The shared kitchen had everything needed for preparing simple meals.
The walls seemed a little thin, so i could hear some noise from the hallway at times.

The inn is located right in the park. During my summer stay, the shade provided considerable comfort. The view included deer. The fully equipped kitchen was convenient after a long trip.
The windows made noise whenever other guests shut doors. It was hard to sleep.
