What to look for in hostels in Nara
Properties offering shared dormitories, private rooms, or both, with common areas that are the actual point. Modern hostels vary enormously: some are quiet and closer to a budget hotel, others run bar crawls every night. The guest reviews say which one you are booking far better than the description does.
Before you book, check
- Whether the rate is per bed or per room. This is the single most common booking mistake.
- Whether bed linen and towels are included or hired.
- Whether there are lockers, and whether they take your size of bag and your own padlock.
- Whether the dorm is mixed or single-sex, and how many beds are in it.
A four-bed dorm and a fourteen-bed dorm are the same product on a filter and a completely different night's sleep. Look at the room type, not just the price, and read the review score for the specific thing that matters to you: quiet, cleanliness, or atmosphere.
Worth it for: Solo travel, long trips, and anyone who would rather meet people than have a minibar.
