Pure class and luxury! Fantastic onsen and view from the balcony! Exceptional customer service! Great size of the room considerably beyond Japanese but even European hotel standards. Free drinks in a super comfortable lounge on the top floor. The 3 stars raring given to this hotel must be a joke, it is absolutely comparable to a 5 stars one.

Wonderful place for 2 adults and 2 kids, 15 and 11. Very clean, plenty of space, nicely appointed. The house has everything you need. It's very close to the castle. The photos probably don't do it justice, it's bigger than it looks, unlike most photos. Great shower and bath. Beds are great. Much appreciation to the hosts. We stayed for 3 nights and absolutely loved it.

Room with tatami and dinner. Defintely have the dinner, it was probably the best meal I had in Japan during my 3 week travel. My room did not have common walls with other rooms, so it was very quiet.

The location is near the station. Room size is quite spacious for Japanese standards. The breakfast is good and tasty, for this price level getting breakfast included is an absolute steal. They have coin laundry too. Amenities always available to self pick up at the lobby.

Everything about it: the location (and views), the much-noted breakfast, complimentary beer and hot baths. It was peak cherry blossom so I was spoiled, but I’d happily visit again at other times of the year.

The host was very friendly, provided lots of hot water for the room and gave me a lift to the station on the last day. The room was sufficient and I loved the hot stone bath. The location is a short walk to Hikone Castle in a quiet street, there are plenty of shops, restaurants, supermarket and a convenient store near by.

The location was walking distance from Hikone castle - which is a must see. We were also able to walk down to the Hikone Harbour which had a nice sunset. The facilities such as the onsen and toilets were well kept. The rooms themselves were surprisingly spacious. The host was very friendly and kindly offered to give us a lift back to Hikone station.

Loved the location, very friendly staff who even organised a second bike that we could use for free. We were provided a larger room as they weren't fully booked which was lovely but the regular room would have been quite adequate. The bath was a welcome relief after long days of walking and riding. The dinner was sensational, especially the Omi beef and the eel. All round good value, a little dated, but wonderful.

Really lovely, traditional accommodation. The staff were friendly and relaxed, even gave me a lift to the station at the end of my stay. I also borrowed a bike from them to ride around the city and had some lovely views of the sunset over the lake. Everythung was clean and tidy with very nice and strong AC! Also a great location near the castle and the station, as well as being next to a shopping street with places to eat.
