Hotel Pagoda

Helpful, friendly staff. Location. Spaciousness. Decor. The large, well-appointed bath/shower room. The common kitchen area. Cleanliness.

Liked everything.

Nice big room. Close to Nara Park.

Staff is friendly

The location of the aircond is weird. Too hot for a speciifc bed.

Very nice staff, clean, close to restaurants and shopping near by. A short walk to public transportation, but there is a lot to do within walking distance.

Everything was very clean, there was just a lot of mold on the ceiling of the shower room. The ceiling is very high, for the height and size I think is very difficult to get a ladder inside and maneuver.

The older gentleman who works in the evening is very amiable. The dorm bed space feels larger and nicer after having stayed in many other real capsule type hotels. This place is kept very clean, the dorm room especially. There is a lounge area for cooking, etc, I didn’t use it except to have a coffee and a snack. Something of interest is that classical music is played in the entrance lobby, which I liked. Also the location was super for my needs, so close to the historical sites I needed to see.

This hotel has an amazing location—just step outside and you might spot deer wandering nearby, which was such a unique and lovely experience. The surrounding area is peaceful and quiet, perfect for a relaxing stay. The hotel itself is well-equipped, with clean and modern facilities throughout.

While the overall environment of the hotel is very pleasant, the female dormitory has a few drawbacks. Each bed doesn’t have curtains, so there’s little privacy, and when the lights are turned off for sleeping, it can be disruptive for those with different schedules. The room itself is quite small—once suitcases are open, there’s barely any space to move around. Also, the dormitory is next to an open terrace, so conversations from outside can sometimes be heard and may disturb rest.

Great location, we had an enormous room with a very big bathroom. The bathroom had a bit of strange smell but I think it’s understandable for an old building especially for the price you’re paying. They have a small reception that closes in the night and receptionist were not the friendliest people but it was overall okay.

This my second time saty there, and it is always great! Excellent location, price and staff :) Will stay there again for the next time :)

The location is fantastic, very close to the park, lots of food options and shops. The room was very large and the beds were comfy. The staff at the front desk were lovely. The amenities were lacking and the bathroom was very old. It’s also a bit of a walk from the train station.

Great location

The room was a bit cold and the heater only worked in the bedroom not in the bath

Good location, big rooms for Japan standards. Very clean, all necessary equipment available.

Hotel bit old, pretty cold in rooms and in one of them the AC didn't work.

Excellent location, close to main attractions of the city. Nice balcony with morning sun.

Would have been nice to have a small cupboard to put one's small things and handbag in

Clean and cosy room which accommodated our family of 7. Location was in a quiet spot and there was good privacy for us. Having our own dedicated carpark space at the hotel was also very helpful.

Toilet was very big and perhaps some of the space can be reconverted into living space.

was a traditional japanese room and the staff very extremely gentle :) i recommend staying here, really quite and nice place to stay

the alleys were a little too dark

We really enjoyed our stay at Hotel Pagoda. The location was great and we could walk to the Nara Park and to the best restaurants in the area. The staff were super friendly - it was raining and they even lend us umbrellas.

Location was excellent and the bath was amazing too. Very satisfied with price-value ratio.

The AC was making a bit of noise, which was alright but had to use the earplugs. However, the beds were great and the location was excellent. The third person had to sleep on tatami floor tho, so that was not very comfortable for them, but it was okay for one night.

great place to stay and good value, location was right next to all the shops, the lake and the deer park!

nothing, all great

Clean and right at the park.

The bed curtains are see through. Guests leave their lights open and you won’t be able to sleep. Also, it ain’t a hostel. It’s a hotel with a dorm. No hostel culture there.

The morning staff is so nice. He let me stay on 4th floor common area even after my check out time to use their wifi since i need to work at that time

I prefer capsule style bed than double deck

The location is just perfect to walk around Nara Park and other famous spots. Room was pretty big especially compared to other hotels in Japan! Everything is clean! I`d love to stay here again someday :)

no drinking water in the room
