Hotel Otsu dengan Sarapan

Very nice. The owner is very nice and helpful. He is able to speak English. Moreover, the private Onsen room is really impressive. Hope I can go next time.

小城大津真是一個我很喜歡的地方，安安靜靜遊客不多，旁邊就是琵琶湖。 公區茶室很漂亮，有個小花園，公共浴室也很乾凈～ 美中不足的是町屋全木質房子的隔音幾乎為零，睡眠較差的不建議入住了。

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!

Fantastic stay, great location and amenities. Mary and Yoko were very friendly and helpful during our stay

對我來説那是一個小城，但這家是一個“大”酒店，是連鎖的，整座樓很明顯。第一次去費點工夫，以後就不覺得遠了，距離JR大津站十分鐘。前台服務很標準，早餐非常用心，飯菜可口，補充也快，廚房服務員忙個不停卻依然保持禮貌。

Очень чистый и уютный рекан. Были семьёй, впервые посетили онсен — очень понравилось. Выдают кимоно, есть все необходимые банные принадлежности. В проживание входит ужин — это десяток разных тарелочек и мисочек, всё очень вкусно, завтрак тоже в традиционном стиле. До станции есть трансфер, но мы также прогулялись до отеля пешком от станции, чтобы посмотреть окрестности.

Clerks are all very nice, and they have shuttle buses to the JR station. However, foreign tourists with tattoos should note that they cannot use public bathroom, but they will still be charged the service fee of it.

Excellent location, right at the station. Check in 16h00. No wifi offered. Hotel access via public restaurant - feels weird to walk between diners to go out / return. Lockers far too narrow even for airline carry-on. Bathroom is clean, shower has small dry area, and water pressure varies. Capsules are spacious with power socket, lights, shelf, etc. The mattress is a few cm thick piece of soft foam and is so worn that it feels like a slab of concrete wrapped in a sheet. Very uncomfortable! And I am 77kg, not overweight. The pillow is a bag filled with what feels like gravel stones. Breakfast comprises one hot / cold drink, a small pile of lettuce leaves with dressing, a thick slab of white bread that is scored about half way deep into a small chessboard and very lightly toasted, and a thimble-size serving of sweet fruit yoghurt. They do offer to hold luggage until 16h00 after check-out, and collecting it is easy and fast.

The hotel surprised me with its cleanliness. It was way newer than I expected. The room is spacious. The public bath is awesome, very comfortable with an outdoor onsen. I ordered one night with breakfast. It was delicious. I wonder why we were the only ones being seated inside the by the wall, while all the Japanese clients were seated by the window though. Was it on purpose?

We had a great stay here, very clean, the staff was also very friendly and helpful ! The location had an amazing view of the lake as well
