Daibutsukan
630-8301 Nara, Nara, Takabatake-cho 250 , Japan – Excellent location – show map
Beautiful location across from the park and the tall pagoda; a large balcony with glass sliding door so we could choose to sit outside or, when it was raining, sit and drink tea while watching the deer in the park. Traditional low futons and low table inside; modern table and chairs on balcony (made it easier to deer watch). Very comfortable sleeping, lots of room for baggage storage and us. My favorite stay on this trip. Wonderful, sweet and attentive staff.
