The Deer Park Inn

“Staff was incredible. Very knowledgeable about the area and friendly.”

“Special location close to all temples for sun rise and sunset viewing”

“Staying here overnight was BEST decision ever!! Epic, to wake up with deer sleeping under your windows and to observe them play while having breakfast by your small balcony. If you go up the stairs you will find many souvenir shops and food being sold but they all close at 5 p.m. the Inn can sell you instant noodles and similar, they are behind the counter in the large kitchen. You can even cook your own dinner or warm up your dishes in the microwave or the small oven. Bathroom and toilets are shared but very clean. They provide one towel and toiletries are in the shower box. There is another guesthouse underneath, that caters to families who the children. The staff was very nice and recommended best places to see the deer in natural setting and for a fantastic sunset on the terrace of a cool temple! Everything in the building was new and stylish, very hip interior design! Way better than expected. Also, why would you stay at a hotel in the city when you can stay here in the forest and nature with all World Heritage sites within 15 minutes walk!! We stayed 2 nights and was definitely not enough, would love to stay a week here!! The deer are adorable and less dangerous than you would think! Also they eat leaves from surrounding trees, you don't really need to buy them crackers. It was an amazing vacation time, we bought delicious pizza from the Happy Kitchen Kin-no-Shika and had it for dinner and breakfast in the beautiful Deer Park Inn! It was very quiet when we stayed in August 2020 and unforgettable! Can't wait to go back!”

“It was simply awesome! The location that provides you with exceptional ease to enjoy all attractions in the park; such as, meeting deers right at the front door. The comfort and serenity of the building itself, especially the lounge, its sofa, the dining table, country music - simply superb!”

“The stay at The Deer Park Inn was incredible ! Because of corona, the park was almost empty and it felt magical to be there. Takeshi-san was very welcoming and helpful. I could see a beautiful sunset, some fireflies and even a boar thanks to his recommendations. It was not my first time staying there so I knew what to expect : the rooms are very clean and tidy, and the park is very quiet at night. It is an incredible experience to be able to stay so near the temples, especially with the deers roaming free everywhere.”
