Smile Hotel Nara - Vacation STAY 73673v

Twelve minutes on foot from Nara Park's free-roaming deer and the great bronze Daibutsu, Smile Hotel Nara occupies a low-rise block on Sanjo Honmachi, the main street linking the station to the shrine district.

Rooms are compact and functional: private bathroom with bathtub, refrigerator, microwave, and desk suit both overnight temple-circuit visitors and longer stays. Vending machines on-site cover late-night snacks without requiring a convenience store run.

Sanjo Honmachi gives quick access to Kintetsu Nara Station to the west and Kasuga Grand Shrine to the east. Check-in opens at 15:00; check-out is 11:00.
