**From 2,625 JPY Private Rooms Breakfast Included!!**

A 100 year old beautiful traditional listed property.

A short train ride from Nara city Yougendo is a very special oasis off the beaten path at Oji town right between Osaka and Nara and right on the train line bound for Koyasan.

We can assure you we are no hostel or backpackers. Prepare to be part of something special when you stay. A unique concept with a very reasonable price tag.

We can be found in various major travel guides and often featured in publications such as the Guardian newspaper UK and Elle Magazine worldwide.

A stay here can grant you access to the whole of the area with very easy access to many parts of Nara that are seldom visited by foreign tourists.

Got a JR pass? Yougendo is the ideal place to base yourself for a whole tour of the Kansai area.

We are an international team of staff with Spanish, French, Korean and of course English speakers all available to help.
