Biwako Hanakaido
4.7/562 Reviews
It was a great stay at this ryokan! The hotel is able to arrange a car to fetch you from the JR station. You can call them using a dedicated phone at the station which is used to contact the different ryokans. The car arrived in 10mins or so. The ride to the ryokan was also less than 10mins. The hotel also fetched us to the station on the last day of our stay. The ryokan itself is homely and cozy. We were greeted by an english speaking staff who introduced us to the amenities of the ryokan. There was also a nice welcome tea and matcha chocolate. Our bags were brought to our room as well during this time. The room is spacious and cozy. The hotel prepared 2 welcome biscuits in the room which was a nice personal touch. The room has a nice living room and a great view of Lake Biwa. Recommend to catch the sunrise over the lake! There are 2 normal beds as well as futon beds (need to set up yourself). Both are comfortable. The hotel also prepared pretty yukata for both female and male guests which you can wear during the stay. There are 4 different designs for ladies, and one design for the guys. You can request for different size if the one in the room doesn’t fit you. There is also a full length mirror and a mini dressing area at the side of the living room. It was fun dressing up in the yukata! The toilet, basin, shower and hot tub areas are all separate. The toilet is a little small, but the basin and mirror area is very spacious. The shower area is quite small as well and the shower head is rather low so you need to hold the shower head if you wish to wash up while standing. There is a small stool given for you to sit down though. The hot tub area is semi-outdoor and you can see Lake Biwa. But it is quite small (only good for one person). It was too cold so we didn’t use the hot tub. Instead, we booked the private onsen for 50mins. The private onsen has a private toilet and dressing area which is equipped with hairdryer, body lotion etc. There is a water dispenser as well if you need to hydrate yourself. The onsen area has a washing area, and the hot tub area is spacious for 2 person. There are privacy screens around the onsen area but there is a small gap to let in cold air for ventilation. Wish there is a good view from the private onsen but it was still enjoyable! Dinner and breakfast was Kaiseki style, and the meals were one of the highlights for my husband and I. We really enjoyed the courses which are clean tasting yet wholesome, fresh and flavourful. It was such a sumptuous treat! The ryokan also has a souvenir shop if you wish to buy anything back. Overall, my husband and I really enjoyed the stay here and we agreed this was one of the main highlights of our 12 days trip in Japan. Highly recommend!
Lake Biwa Otsu Prince Hotel
4.5/5270 Reviews
**Breathtaking Views** The hotel offers stunning views of Lake Biwa, Japan’s largest freshwater lake. My room featured panoramic vistas of the tranquil waters and surrounding mountains, especially beautiful at sunrise and sunset. **Comfortable Accommodations** The spacious accommodations blended traditional Japanese aesthetics with modern comforts. The cozy futon bedding ensured a restful night’s sleep, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. **Delicious Dining Options** Dining was a highlight, with a breakfast buffet that included a delightful mix of Japanese and Western dishes, emphasizing local ingredients. Fresh seafood and seasonal fruits made each meal enjoyable. **Excellent Location and Amenities** Located in Otsu, the hotel is perfectly situated for exploring the area. It offers free parking for guests and complimentary bike rentals, making it easy to explore the scenic lakeside paths and nearby attractions. The staff were incredibly helpful, providing recommendations for local sights, such as the historic Enryaku-ji Temple. Lake Biwa Hotel is a fantastic choice for a peaceful getaway. With stunning views, comfortable accommodations, and great amenities, I highly recommend it for a relaxing escape.
Biwako Hotel
4.7/5220 Reviews
My partner and I thorougly enjoyed our stay at Biwako Hotel. All rooms face the beautiful Lake Biwako and the view was perfect. We even caught a snowfall on one of our mornings here. The staff was great and always friendly even when there was a slight language barrier. We tried their breakfast as well which was really good. Highly recommend renting their electric bikes and cycling around the lake during sunset. And also going for the Lake Biwako Cruise! The hotel onsen is wonderful as well, we will definitely be back
Imazu Sun Bridge Hotel
4/521 Reviews
We stayed two nights in the hotel with breakfast and dinner. The web page of Trip.com showed that there was onsen in the hotel but when we check in, we were told that it was a ”mistake”. There is no onsen and the photo is a public onsen half an hours away. It was very disappoining that the Trip.com include photos irrelevant to the hotel. Dinner was also diffferent from the web photo. We have to pay 2500 yen each to upgrade the dinner to shsbu shabu. Breakfast is Japanese style with limited choice. Other than these, we had lake view room and shopping mall is nearby which are the advantages.
Comfort Hotel Hikone
4.5/563 Reviews
To be honest, I booked it as an alternative because the Toyoko Inn I used before in a place that can be said to be next door is full. Compared to the Toyoko Inn price on the same day, there was a feeling of expectation that the price was higher even after using the coupon than the twin of Toyoko Inn member discount. I think the size of the room is a little larger than Hikone in Toyoko Inn. It wasn't a wall hanging, it didn't have a minimal door, but there was also a closet-like space. The corridor was also wide and it seemed to be better sound insulation than Toyoko Inn. On the contrary, the bathroom and toilet had a sense of preview in the arrangement and size so that I thought I was staying at Toyoko Inn, and I didn't feel the difference. It was very similar to the shampoos on the wall. I didn't feel the difference between the two about the bed. Although it is on the same side from Hikone Station, it is closer to the station than Toyoko Inn, and it was a distance where you could leave your luggage after checking out and go sightseeing (although it would be a small difference for a car, Considering the small number of trains on foot, the distance makes you want to use the station locker rather than leaving your luggage at Toyoko Inn.) The breakfast venue is large and there is plenty of room. There are many kinds of things to eat. I think that there were many western style things such as two kinds of smoothies, soup, waffles and yogurt, and it was good to be able to eat calmly and eat alone in the feeling that it was not a seat. I think it's good for people who put emphasis on breakfast. It was a little disappointing when I returned to pick up my luggage at noon after sightseeing (the luggage can be unmanned, such as passing through a wire with a locker or dial lock), and there was no one at the front desk. A very busy movement was conveyed from the dining space. After all, I found it myself, but I couldn't ask anyone even if I wanted to rent a toilet. The second floor is the front desk, but in front of the elevator on the first floor, it was like a truck carrying linen to be carried out and it was blocked (I used the stairs because my legs were not bad). It may not be possible to turn around when there is a shortage of labor, but it was a little disappointing that the feeling of the back was oozing out.
Grand Park Hotel Okubiwako Makino
4.2/540 Reviews
My house in Nagoya grew up in Tokyo born in Tokyo in the first place I didn't know that there was such a great place near Nagoya, and I planned a spring break trip to Lake Biwa because of the influence of this year's taiga drama 3/25-26 From Nagoya to Lake Biwa in an hour and a half using Meishin and Hokuriku Road I enjoyed sightseeing in Nagahama and enjoyed the scenery on the lakeside while driving in the back of Lake Biwa. The beautiful forests that reminisce on the lakes of Europe, the lakeside scenery is really fun, and when you run a car in the Makino car navigation in Lake Okubiwa, the hotel standing on the lake enters the eye. Makino Grand Park Hotel, the passage from the hotel lobby to the room is the usual modern hotel lobby and passage However, the moment you opened the door of the room! The room is woody everywhere, and the room is like a mountain hut atmosphere And beyond the big window, the water surface of Lake Biwa shines with the reflection of the glittering sunlight. This is a great really nice place, leaving the room and passing the road beside the lobby, vivid green forest and lakeside, standing on the lakeside, the sound of the wind, the sound of the quiet lake Biwa waves, and further back, the auto camping ground There is a nice view that makes you more enjoyable. Unfortunately, this day, the hotel was quiet and quiet due to the influence of corona virus, and the restaurant facing the lake stopped the buffet for dinner and enjoyed the visit of the evening while eating the course dishes I woke up early the next morning, so I walked around the lake and breathed fresh air. Breakfast is a Japanese meal, but the volume and taste are outstanding. The hotel staff is also working at a difficult time when the operation is down and it is hard to work. It was a quiet time, but I enjoyed my family trip that remained very thoughtful. This time, I'll visit the viral period without any surprises, and one more memorable hotel has increased. By the way, nature spreads around the hotel, and if you cross the mountain, you can enjoy Tsuruga, the sea of Japan, Nagahama and sightseeing on the opposite shore of the lake, and the place where the car is just a short distance is like the plateau of Hokkaido. You can enjoy the tasekoia trees, so please go and visit Makino Grand Hotel.
Super Hotel Otsu Ekimae
4.2/58 Reviews
It's a 5-minute walk from Otsu JR Station and a 10-minute walk from Keihan Electric Railway's Torino-Seki Station. The location is good. Super is a chain of budget hotels with high cost performance and includes buffet breakfast. I especially want to praise the service at the front desk. The next morning, I found that the traffic was exhausted. The front desk said that Otsu is a small place and needs to go to Kyoto or Osaka to buy, and asked me about the itinerary for the day. I said that I would go to Koyasan and transfer in Osaka; after that I went to have breakfast. Halfway through the breakfast, the front desk came over with a color printed map (Osaka JR Station), and told me that I checked it. There is a yodobashi, which is on the right hand side of the station. I thank you. After eating, wait for the elevator , she came here with a highlighter in order to mark yodobashi on the map, it was just a trivial matter, but this kind of service awareness, the spirit of feeling that I can still do it, moved me, it is worth learning, stranger , a small city, a small thing makes Otsu warm and memorable.

Hotel Route-Inn Nagahama Inter
4.2/5104 Reviews
On the day of the fireworks festival in August, all the inn within walking distance of Nagahama station was full and stayed here. The purpose was not fireworks, but around the black wall, and I went out for dinner, but on the way back, the road was crowded with fireworks, and the taxi was not caught, and eventually, I sweated in the tropical night I arrived at the hotel on foot for 1 hours from the vicinity of the station. I think there is no sales point. I think the season fee of 9800 yen is beyond the category of business hotels, and the accommodation fee that usually hears around 6000 yen in the concentration of fireworks guests is 9800 yen with breakfast. Anyway, I think it is a hotel that is not suitable for sightseeing in the black wall district at least. The single room with double bed was renovated and large and comfortable, but when you pull out the key card, all power is out, so you can't keep the room cooled. Check out at 10 o'clock is also a business hotel. If you take a season fee, I would like you to remind me that you will take a shuttle bus to the station or at least when you go out, you will not be able to secure your return leg.
Hotel New Omi
4.2/577 Reviews
First of all, I feel it's very important to mention that the staff here were very helpful in handling a big problem I had with my booking app. I was very grateful for this assistance. There is a beautiful garden outside the lobby. The room had a great view of the town and Hachiman mountain, and was among the most spacious and comfortable I've had in Japan.
