My first night in Japan - Airport to train, train to Tennoji, train to Nara, bus to stop N13 and walk to Tsunoya. I'd planned to be tired, the staff got me checked in and got me into the room, explained all the details of getting in and out of the room and building, told me where the best Izakaya restaurant was, and then helpfully gave me maps and sent me on my way for the rest of the day ... which ended after I'd seen a few gorgeous buildings, met a few deer, gazed up at the 5 story pagoda and lay down on some grass by the lake and fell asleep ... Zzzzz ....

Really enjoyed staying in Nara, good location too!

We stayed in the double room with loft and private bathroom and we loved it! The location is just the best in town: you will be just in the old town next to Nara Park. You can walk to all of the touristic places, so you can make the best out of your time in Nara and get to know the city with no hassle. 

The room is spacious, super clean, new, and modern. It has AC, a desk and chair, space for your luggage. In the common area there's a desk and a computer you can use. There’s also a cold and hot water dispenser, a microwave, and a fridge you can use, which makes it really convenient to grab a bite. They also have a very cool bar / restaurant open all day. They also provide laundry service which is very convenient.

The staff speaks really good English and is super helpful and kind. They gave us a lot of useful advice and we had very interesting conversations about Japan and its culture. 

We have really good memories of Nara and this hostel, do not hesitate to stay here for a perfect stay!

Best location, very comfortable rooms, super clean, super kind staff!

Everything was perfection. The room was spacious and clean, quiet at night and bright during the day. The location was just perfect. You can simply walk a few minutes and arrive at great touristic spots, while staying in a quiet area. There are many great restaurants nearby. And the staff was great. Kind and warm, with great tips about what to do. Would defenitely stay here again! :)

Best place to stay in Nara

We were not sure whether we should spend the night in Nara or visit Nara as day trip from Kyoto.  Thankfully, we decided to spend the night in Nara at the Tsunoya Guesthouse.  Not only was the Guesthouse clean, comfortable, pleasant and well situated, but our friendly host recommended an excellent local restaurant for dinner, which we much enjoyed.

Excellent guesthouse experience with a friendly host

IRO Hostel / Tsunoya was bright, clean, warm and welcoming. They had everything I needed for a perfect stay. Bunks were spacious and thoughtfully considered – shelf next to the outlet for charging phones, personal light and small, quiet fan. The stylish sliding screen doors made the space my own, and the origami crane added a sweet, homey touch. Bathrooms and showers were clean and easily accessible. The shower was fantastic! Rooms were secured with a code, and lockers were large enough to store a laptop and other valuables with room to spare. Everything was very modern and well-maintained. Location was perfect, right in the heart of Naramachi, walkable to Nara Park and a cool strip of shops and restaurants. Staff were friendly and accommodating. They even let me leave my heavy bags and keep my locker after checkout so I could enjoy the day in Nara – a real treat! Heartfelt thanks to the IRO Hostel / Tsunoya for a fantastic stay in Nara.

Clean, bright, spacious and cheery

Great stay in the female dorm, modern aircon to keep the room toasty in the cool autumn weather. Comfortable, clean, staff are very friendly, and I love the location! So close to the three-story pagoda. Had breakfast both days at the bar/cafe attached to the guest house, recommend the berry bowl! Great coffee too. I will definitely stay here again on my next overnight adventure to Nara.

Lovely stay!

Nice little hostel in the center of Nara.
Room was small but clean and quite. The pillows were a bit hard and the bathroom was freezing when I went for a shower. There isn’t anything special about it, but for a couple of nights it was suitable 😊 the cafeteria was cute as well and the guy who worked there was super friendly and we had a lovely chat. 

Lovely and Quite 

Very happy with our find in the Guesthouse Tsunoya. A range of three person rooms (double/single) with private shower room or dormitory bunks to choose from. Separate cafe can be used as common area for own food but they serve decent selection of food and even better selection of local sake. Great conversations with bar staff and locals on sake choices from local area including ‘nouveau’ sake which is cloudy and from over winter preparation. Really local to Nara park, giant Buddha, temples and deer. Really nice feel to the town with lots of great food choices and handicrafts to enjoy. Much nicer than Kyoto.
