Homestays in Shiga Prefecture, Japan

The first time I lived in the orthodox squatter house, I was pleasantly surprised. The house is very distinctive. The sister of the hotel will not communicate with the translator because of the text but has been communicating with the translator. The breakfast is delicious. Everyone must order breakfast in advance. There is also a vinyl dish machine in the living room. It is very nostalgic and sentimental. Otsu is really a very quiet town, and on the last day of 2024 I spent a very peaceful day here.

This accommodation, Water House built by the famous architect William Merrell Vories is a house full of history; located in a very interesting neighbourhood steeped. We thoroughly enjoyed staying here and wish we had more than one night! We highly recommend this accommodation for its history, its convenient location and a chance to stay in a culturally significant property such as The Waterhouse by Vories.

The bath was spacious, and it was great to be able to bathe in the open air! I was lucky to be the only one there, so I had plenty of space to use. The surrounding restaurants closed early, so I considered skipping dinner, but I ended up using the restaurant inside! The hamburger and fries made by the chef were incredibly delicious ^ ^ The washroom was also very clean! However, the road to the station is very dark at night with no streetlights, so it can be scary. I recommend coming early! It felt great in the mornings and evenings.

Very pleasant guest house on Nakasendo Old Road. Very quiet town, quiet and practically no tourists. Still around beauty, mountains and lots of tracking places. From the railway station to the guest house on foot 10-15, trains go often, it is very convenient, it is easy to get to neighboring cities more, to visit Sekigahara or Lake Biva. In the house very clean, atmospheric, many nice details of the interior. The common bathroom and toilet rooms are perfectly clean, everything was very comfortable. Big kitchen, dining room and living room for recreation. Beautiful zoning. The room is small but comfortable, everything is thought up to tiny things. For the local night lamp separate thank you! There is also a small garden, bicycle rental and laundry (washing + dry 300 ). The master speaks perfectly English. We arrived a little earlier than the settlement time, but no one was there, left the luggage in the parish and left for a walk because they could not call the left room. in the evening they returned and found a note with email, wrote, preparing for a long time to wait, But the owner arrived instantly and our things were waiting for us in the room. He personally showed us the device at home and offered tea. Thank you for the great time you spent here

Location was great, next to the lake. Owners were nice. Place was ok to stay considering the price. The biggest issue is that wall are super thin and if you a light sleeper like me - you might have a problem :)

This is 2nd time i stay here..maybe will come again

這間旅館非常推薦給單車人士！老闆會說中文，適合華語遊客。這間旅館的出面就是琵琶湖，日出時拍照會很美！

The hotel and the Jinjin-ku, near the river, are eight minutes walk, a traditional Japanese-style hotel. There are many comics and models in the museum, which is believed to be the owner's collection. Dinner and breakfast are also traditional Japanese, and the accommodation room is tatami.

It was a Japanese-style guest house. It was nice to be clean and spacious, and thank you for the kind words of the owner. It was my first time in a Japanese-style guest house, but it was better because it was a new feeling.
