“Awesome stay in Nara !”
If you are looking for a nice, clean and affordable place in Nara, don’t hesitate ! It is at less than 10 min from the nearest train station and also convenient store. The place is a mix of typical Japanese house but with a + in confort ! I was very well received by the owner and I enjoyed my short stay there !

“Certainly looking forward to my next trip to Japan and this place is again a must visit.”
Extremely friendly hosts Dan and his wife Hiroko. Dan whips up an extremely delicious pizza toast for breakfast. Unfortunately, the price of japanese rice has risen by three times so Dan did not prepare a Japanese breakfast which I read in the reviews as being very good. Dan was also very generous in sharing with us about do's and don'ts regarding Japanese social and cultural norms. The place is also very new, less than 5 years old if I am not wrong.

Absolutely loved my stay here. The location was nice, only a short walk to the station and within the quiet alleyways of the neighbourhood. Many nice local restaurants and a shopping mall also within walking distance. The room was super clean and the hosts were absolutely lovely. They gave me many recommendations and even offered to move a desk into my room as I was working during my stay. If I ever find myself in Nara again I will be staying here :)

“A genuinely authentic guest house experience..”
The peaceful and tranquil atmosphere was delightful. I appreciated the kindness of my hosts and the welcoming, homelike environment they provided. This is a straightforward and comfortable guesthouse. Experience a simpler way of life by sleeping on a futon and enjoying a traditional Japanese breakfast.

“B&B Nara An, Simple and wonderful.”
We express our sincere appreciation for the aesthetically pleasing and well-organized arrangement of the room. Its simplicity and neatness are truly delightful. #homedesign #interiordesign The dining room is excellent, and their homemade breakfast is delicious. Hiroko and Dan demonstrated remarkable flexibility by offering diverse breakfast menus each day, which we greatly appreciated. In all honesty, I wholeheartedly recommend B&B Nara An. The proprietors are wonderful individuals whose company we thoroughly enjoyed.

“B&B Nara An”
The hosts Hiroko and Dane were very friendly and extremely helpful. They helped us plan our excursions, organise takuhaibin etc. Our Japanese breakfasts were the best we have had. The accommodation was great value and very clean. We found the location great, as it was close to a railway station and all kinds of shops and restaurants. The trains from the station went to Nara (2 stops) and there were express trains to both Osaka and Kyoto. Overall we would highly recommend staying at B&B Nara An.

“You cannot go wrong staying here! Great B & B.”
It was a nice change from a business hotel and had a nice dining room that you can use as a communal area. The couple that run it are really friendly and both are fluent English speakers. As a solo traveller it was great to have someone to chat with. The rooms are very nice and the breakfast is good. It’s a short walk from the train station.
