Experience culture authentically with a stay at this traditional Japanese-style accommodation. Sleep on the floor (on a futon roll) in a room furnished with tatami flooring and sliding doors. Guests can often expect access to a communal bath plus a complimentary Japanese garment called a yukata.
Host was hospitable and friendly. Onsen usually closed in the morning but he offered to open upon request from 6am to 8am. Room was clean and spacious.
Everything about our stay is perfect. This Ryokan is full of character. Great hospitality from the owner - they are very friendly and made sure our stay was comfortable and provided good dinner recommendations. Having an onsen in the ryokan is a huge bonus - this is probably the highlight of our stay. Authentic Japanese breakfast served. The location is near the train station making sites around Lake Biwa accessible. We're so glad we stayed here.
I stayed here while biking around lake biwa. The dinner was delicious and the onsen felt great after a day of biking! The owner was kind and gifted me keychains and candy 🥹 Thank you very much 🙏
