I really like this hotel! The location is excellent. Another thing I would like to mention, as a person who had back surgery before, it is very important to have a bed that is supportive, somewhat firm yet soft and comfy on its cover. The bed in this hotel really meets my expectation even beyond wat I have in mind. It's just an extra information to whoever seeking the right bed for their trip in Nara!

We loved the peacefulness and relaxation of this place. Get ready to get rid of your shoes and walk within the hotel in slippers they will provide to you. The baths experience is rewarding and life changing. The stuff is super friendly and kind and the premises are spotless clean. The deer park is a 10 minute walk and there are great restaurants around.

    I stayed in the old bulding and had the pleasure to listen to waterfall and frog sounds from the nearby river all night. Very soothing. The place has a great retro atmosphere, clean and nice onsen and great food. On top of that, when I inquired about public buses to Koyasan from near villages, I was told by the receptionist he will take me there the next morning via car. Free of charge. What a service!

    Amazing stay and a highlight of our trip! The room with a private bath was luxurious yet simple, with an amazing view of Nara. The included seasonal dinner and breakfast was a wonderful way to try some new Japanese foods. The shuttle bus to and from Nara was a nice addition, and all staff were so kind and helpful. Would highly recommend to anyone wanting to experience onsen and ryokan while in Japan!

    Located a five minute walk from ‘Nara Park’ and the main shopping/dining streets, Hotel Asyl Nara is conveniently central. Helpful and friendly staff, nice Onsen and delicious breakfast - all for a very good price! Room was spacious and quiet. A lovely, little shop with local gifts in the lobby. Added bonus was the Saturday night, Golden Week free bar. Family oriented and cozy atmosphere.

    From outside it doesn't look very inviting, but the room we got was bigger as expected with everything you need for the stay. It is only one minute away from the station, though quiet in the room and you won't get wet in case it is raining. They offer free coffee and an onsen! And it is just amazingly priced.

    Nara is beautiful.

    Nara is beautiful. There are two UNESCO world heritage sites and lots of deer. If you are afraid of animals, I don't recommend it. The deer will follow you if you have food and they may try to take it from you if you hesitate or don't gently push them away. They are not, as a general rule, aggressive. A lot of tourists freak out and just throw their crackers. Don't do that. Stay calm. The deer don't want to hurt you, they just want a snack. They don't care for being pet either. Just snap your crackers (200 yen sold at different stands) into 3-4 pieces, hold out your hand flat and let them take it from you. Be aware of how many are around you. They will surround and nibble your clothing. I found this hilarious. I grew up with cows and they will pretty much do the same thing. Use your voice and be gentle. The one day bus pass is really useful. I wish I had more time in Nara.

    i liked the Kashihara Jingu and the visit to various burial places of former tenno. on my last day, i visited the Omiwa Jinja; there is an observation hill where you could watch the sunset over Kashihara city. walking around town however, you can notice the signs of declining population and abandoned shops. there are a few good ramen shops in the area if you know where to find them, like Saika Ramen, highly recommended for its spicy flavour.

    Nara Koen (park) is a beautiful place.

    Nara Koen (park) is a beautiful place. Todaiji and Kasuga Kaisha is located nearby. The Sarusawa Ike (pond) behind the Nara Park leads to shopping place. One can spend whole day around Nara. - Beware of the deer, they might get a bit aggressive when offering food. - It gets crowded during on-season.

    I love the deer and the ambiance of Nara. Arrive early and expect crowds. As with anything else, the further you walk from the main area, you can stumble across more peaceful and secluded places. I would avoid Nara on the weekend, if possible. Deer can be friendly (and bow politely to ask for a treat) or aggressive (grabbing items out of your bag, biting your clothing, or being over-zealous). Keep your crackers high or out of sight and feel free to walk away from deer that are not vibing.
