Yuzan Guesthouse 遊山ゲストハウス

が家のような最高の旅館。本当に親切なホストで、本当に何でも私たちに対応してくれました。部屋は広く、適切なキッチンとリビングルームがあります。また奈良に行ったら必ずここに泊まります！

Currently staying and very happy to review. It’s a fabulous hostel. You receive a warm welcome from the host.the hostel 4 bed dorm is large, spacious, the beds are big and cosy and private with good curtains. Small lockers in the room and a open wardrobe to hang coats etc. There is a sink in the room & a massive AC heat pump. In the morning the natural light pours in to wake you naturally. The bathroom & kitchen are clean.
The host makes a great tasty filling breakfast set for only ¥500, Soup, toast, egg, and a big cup of delicious coffee. Such good value.
There are bikes available for hire and a pop up cafe at the entrance. The hostel itself is set back from the road by a lovely garden and it’s gated off. It feel like home, with a comfortable light bright common room where guests chat to each other.
There are plenty of traditional characteristics here with abundant timber sliding doors and flooring.
Definitely stay here for a home away from home.

The boss and staff are nice,
Breakfast is delicious and made by boss.
Room is clean, equipment is new.
Worth to spend a night here.

Strongly recommend this homestay because the owner is very kind. And I like the room I live in because of the view. I feel very warm when I live there.

I absolutely loved this place. We came here to attend the burning of the mountain and see the deer park and this place is a gem.

The main guy that runs the place speaks amazing english and is super friendly. I loved his rundown of the place as well as his suggestions and directions about the area. You can also rent bikes for 100 yen per hour, capping out at 500 for the day.

The place itself had a great kitchen, toilet, shower with shampoo, conditioner, and body wash, and a shared sleeping soace with bunkbeds that have curtains for privacy. The beds were firm but I personally like beds like that and the blankets were very warm. There is also a heater in the room.

The place itself is a walled off private old style Japanese house and it’s very cute and beautiful. I would stay here every time I go to Nara. ️️️

Tap water in front of our room does not have hot water. The inner most toilet also does not have a water jet for cleaning. Another problem is they ask us to provide our next destination when check-in, which I feel uncomfortable for privacy reasons. The other things are excellent, including the ability to speak English fluently.

Such a beautiful guesthouse. Our room was had a beautiful view and private sink. I left some personal belongings at the temple and the staff was so helpful in calling and assisting me in retrieving it. Great place to stay when visiting the area.

女性用ドミトリーに1泊。当日朝、電話で予約したが大変親切な対応。
近鉄奈良駅至近で観光や食事に便利な場所。
部屋内の片側に2段ベッドが２つあり、共有スペースが非常に広く清潔で快適。部屋内に洗面台１つあり便利。枕の高さが絶妙に良くてぐっすり眠れた。
玄関横の共有スペースの台所と居間？は居心地良く、本や漫画があってゆっくり出来る。
オーナーさんと思われる男性が非常に親切で、観光施設やお店もいろいろ教えてくれる。奈良を訪れる機会がまたあれば泊まりたいお宿です。

Exceptional service and beautiful interior! My friend and I checked in a day early. For whatever reason, we messed up the date. All the rooms were already booked so we would have had to look for another Guesthouse. However! Instead of sending us away, they provided us with an alternative for the same price! I can't express how grateful we were! I can absolutely recommend this guesthouse. We had an absolute wonderful time there!

4泊お世話になりました。
古くて趣のある素晴らしい古民家をリノベーションした宿で、設備も文句なしでキッチンも使いやすく、ドミの部屋は椅子やソファー、洋服掛け、ロッカーもあり、とても広いです。

共用の居間も広くて、本もたくさんありとても居心地がよく、また中庭もあります。レンタサイクルもあります。

そして宿主もスタッフさんも気さくでとても親切なので、すごく快適に滞在出来ました。

非常に良心的な値段で、今まで泊まったゲストハウスの中でも最高の一つでした。奈良に行く方には大推薦です。

Lovely stay at the cutest Japanese guesthouse. The host is very kind and I'm glad I listened to another reviewer's suggestion of asking for recommendations. The space itself is designed for travelers to unwind with a cozy wood themed lounge space and a beautiful little Japanese courtyard garden. The standard room was HUGE for one person and Japanese standards so highly recommend paying the extra 1000yen or so to upgrade from dorm to room. Absolutely enjoyed my stay, wish I'd spent more of my trip here, and will definitely back with family and friends in tow.
