Haruya Naramachi

If you like Japanese traditional house , here is what you are looking for

The place was very cute but there were a few hairs on my resting space, and the dormitory didn’t have a normal sink mirror for getting ready in the morning.

The hostel er meget hyggeligt og giver en rigtigt god japansk vibe, men der er ikke så mange toiletter eller brusere på stedet. God temperatur, gode senge, pænt og renligt, men der er ikke rigtigt nogle medarbejdere, da de måtte skære af siden corona, dog finder de nogle rigtig gode alternative løsninger. All in all, hvis du har tænkt dig at overnatte i Nara og gerne vil prøve noget lidt ekstra er dette et fedt sted.

Great hostel. A lot of space even in the dormitory! I would recommend.

Quite far from JR Station, walking along 20mins, location Naramachi feel quite.The hotel haven’t onsen anyway there’ve information in the room, walking 8 mins to local onsen a bit late close on 23.00.

For sure I will not recommend this hotel to stay. It is really cold in common space, shower, toilet, even in my room. When I arrived in the evening the temperature in my room was like almost the same as outside, my hands and nose was frozen. There was nobody in the hotel in the evening, so I send a message to hotel staff about this problem, but nobody answered me. Somehow I put hitting system working on, but still it was a cold air. So I had to go sleep in my hat till the middle of the night, when it became warm. The room and common space wasn’t so clean as I expected. The old house and small garden is really atmospheric. The location is also good and quiet. The price is low, but it shouldn’t be so cold.

Read this review carefully because it provides a very specific insight. Good things first. Very clean and amazing planning of the place. I loved the garden. Also, nice to have a well water spot with coffee and tea. You can leave your luggage at the counter and go walking till checking-in. I got 110 small dorm. Bedding was great. Each bed had a rest area for work. Bad things. I was given bed #1, which is near the door. At around 6AM two tenants from upstairs started going in and out non-stop. Hence, I had 0 sleep after 6 AM. Check-out is at 10:00, meaning I lost at least 2-3 hours of sleep. The door is very loud and the wall shook next to my bed. I don’t even mention that sound was also loud upstairs. The owners could oil the door parts and, for example, plan upstairs area better to reduce the noise. So, if you plan to come late and have good sleep this place and its dormitories is unlikely for you.

Super nice hostel and hotel in a traditional Japanese building. Very friendly host. Nice yard to chill. Dorm with bed and a chilling floor! Amazing!

Looking for accommodation in nara, I highly recommend this one This is the most Japanese style accommodation I have ever slept in in Japan There is a washing machine, cooking and a bathroom.
