Business Hotels in Ōtsu

**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.

Sehr gutes Hotel am malerischen Biwa Lake, sehr gemütlich eingerichtetes Zimmer und dazu noch sehr groß für japanische Verhältnisse, Ausblick vom Balkon auf See ist fantastisch. Frühstück ist hervorragend, das betrifft sowohl die Organisation als auch die Auswahl der Speisen und sehr freundliches Personal. Das Hotel bietet einen kostenlosen Onsen auch an, den wir täglich sehr gerne in Anspruch genommen haben, einfach herrlich. Das Hotel bietet auch kostenlosen Shuttle-Bus vom und zum Bahnhof an, dazu gibt’s im Hotel entsprechenden Zeitplan. Die Anbindung an Kyoto ist sehr gut und dauert vom Bahnhof Otsu bis Bahnhof Kyoto ca. 15 Minuten. Wir waren sehr begeistert vom Hotel und können es uneingeschränkt weiterempfehlen.

Room is clean, got some mikimoto sample which is great, experience is also great. Pickup service is available, will highly recommend

The hospitality at the hotel was exceptional! From the moment we arrived, the staff greeted us with warm smiles and a genuine willingness to assist. The attention to detail in service, from the personalized welcome to the thoughtful amenities in our room, made our stay truly memorable. It’s clear that the team is dedicated to creating a welcoming atmosphere, ensuring that every guest feels valued and comfortable. I would highly recommend this hotel for anyone seeking a delightful and accommodating experience!

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!

Dieses Hotel ist weit von der Station von Kyoto entfernt, aber in einer ruhigen Nachbarschaft. Obwohl zugänglich, sollte man hier bleiben möchte, Faktor in der Reisezeit - 20Min von Kyoto über JR-Linien. Das Gebäude ist alt. Das Frühstück ist gut, aber ich habe am zweiten Morgen meine verpasst, als sie 10 Minuten früh geschlossen. Gutes Größenzimmer - und ich habe ein Doppelbett für eine Einzelbesetzung.

Выбрали данный отель за комбинацию расположения и цены. Две станции до центра Киото, а цена в 1,5-2 раза ниже - идеально! В остальном все хорошо, соответствует описанию.

Der Sieger ist in einer hervorragenden Lage und geht 2 Minuten vom Busbahnhof der Shishan J R-Station entfernt. Es ist auch sehr bequem, umgeben von Essen und vielen Auswahlmöglichkeiten. Auch wenn das Hotel ein wenig klein ist, die Einrichtungen sind etwas alt, aber der Service ist gut und sauber. Der Halle hat kostenloses Wasserkoffein und saubere Zubehör müssen Sie sich selbst nehmen. Gepäckspeicher anbieten. Zusammenfassend ist es sehr bequem.

Es ist ok. Nahe dem See. Frühstück ist nett im japanischen Stil serviert. Bitte machen Sie jedoch keine Fehler, da die Zahlung annulliert wird und die Zahlung zum Zeitpunkt der Buchung zurückerstattet wird.

住宿帶早餐，且早餐豐富，住了三天每天都換花樣，這個挺好。酒店距離JR大津步行5分鐘左右，周邊有一些商店和超市，步行可以到三井寺，但比較安靜，沒什麼遊客。入住在14樓，房間雖小但設施齊全我，住宿自己在機器上操作，有中文提示，選擇了不要打掃，而每天都給你新的毛巾，掛在門外袋子裏。第一天下午房間wifi可用，但晚上就不能用，去前台交涉，溝通上有點周折也算順利解決，另外給了一個密碼，但住的三天14樓那個房間的wifi不是很穩定。總體還是比較推薦的一個去處。
