“Very good budget option”
Comfortable room, plenty of parking which makes this a good base for making day trips in the area. Nice public bath with a hot water temperature (44 degrees each time I went). Staff very helpful. The room has all facilities. Excellent pricing.

“Great option for small groups, cycleable locations around but far from most things.”
Clean, good amount of space for 2 in the twin room. Small but great spa/bath. TV and vending machines were modern and nice. Staff was very patient and accommodating and always at counter. Baggage hold available but no lockers. Food options are available all around about 5 to 10 min walk. Also less than an hour walk to Hikone castle. About 40 minutes.

“Value for Money in Hikone”
This Hotel was great value for money - Breakfast was included and it was better than expected for essentially a stop - over , business Hotel . Rooms were a bit small but beds were great and pillows OK . As expected , staff didn't speak much English but we got through, they were helpful in getting taxis etc . The weather was awful , cold and rainy but we enjoyed visiting Hikone Castle and Nagahama town - stayed 3 nights . Restaurant in the Hotel served quite good food at very reasonable prices in the evening. Loved the Vending Machines in the Hotel .
