Inase Otsu Machiya Bed and Breakfast, a property with a garden and a shared lounge, is situated in Otsu, 10 km from Daigo-ji Temple, 11 km from Shoren-in Temple, as well as 11 km from Samurai Kembu Kyoto. Featuring garden and inner courtyard views, this bed and breakfast also comes with free WiFi. Kiyomizu-dera Temple is 12 km away and Mount Hiei is 14 km from the bed and breakfast. Very comfy home, there's a lot of temples in Otsu, so it was nice to be able to visit them, however things do close early because it's a smaller town. The breakfast and staff were amazing :)

Situated on the shores of Lake Biwa, Lake Biwa Otsu Prince Hotel offers rooms with lake views, 7 restaurants and an outdoor pool. Lake cruises are available in front of the hotel. The hotel is a 10-minute drive from Otsu Train Station, which is a 9-minute train ride from JR Kyoto Train Station. I like the view from the room. The Biwako is so beautiful. The room is quite small for 4 bed but it is nice and clean. My kids like the illumination on the park.

Located in Hikone, near Hikone Castle, Kiyotaki Ryokan is a historic ryokan that features a garden. The property is non-smoking and is set 8 km from Taga-taisha Shrine.

The ryokan comes with a flat-screen TV. Providing free private parking, this 2-star ryokan also features free WiFi. The accommodation offers an air conditioning, a heating and a shared bathroom. I absolutely loved my stay at Hikone and Kiyotaki ryokan. The room I stayed in was spacious and smelled of tatami, the bath was newly and renovated and comfortable, there was a small table in room along with a kettle and a teapot set perfect for a cup of tea in the morning. This was both one of my favorite stays in Japan so far as well as one of the cheaper ones. The owner of this ryokan is super friendly well. He gave me tips on what to see as well as a map of local cafes and restaurants and other tourist attractions which he himself helped make. Overall the stay was super friendly and I hope to come back in the future and even book the dinner this time.

At Hotel Biwako, guests can relax in the sauna, use the luggage storage service or purchase souvenirs at the gift shop. A concierge service, free parking and a 24-hour front desk are also available on site. Everything was fine. Delicious Breakfast and the Club Lounge was excellent. The huge public bath was great for relaxing.
