The staff was extremely helpful and the laundry facility on site was great. Only taking a star off because the beds were very stiff and I did wake up a couple times due to the trains coming in and out of the station. That said 5 minute walk to the station after a free breakfast in the morning was great!

Standard japanese hotel room, nothing too fancy but still comfortable. The room had a slight smell of smoke but nothing strong. You can hear the trains pass since you’re by the station, and the walls are on the thin side so bring earplugs. Staff were super friendly and helpful!

This hotel was within walking distance of the train station, which was important to us. The staff is helpful; someone is always available if needed. Breakfast is included and has a wide variety of choices, including local specialities. The room was comfortable and spacious enough for two people to move around. Walking to nearby shrines is doable, but for some walking to the Castle by the lake may be a bit too far. We walked down, but took a cab back up the hill. The castle and old town is worth a visit.

Location: 5 mins from the station so an easy walk. Staff: they were friendly and helpful. Hotel: standard Toyoko inn so clean, and has everything you need for a nice stay including breakfast which has a nice variety so you’ll find something you like. Room: typical style for this chain hotel. Clean, fresh, with bathroom and shower unit. These rooms are the typical size which is fine.bed was comfortable. Food etc was all about 5 mins away. Plenty around the train station for people to enjoy. Hikone castle was an easy 15 ish minute walk away. The view at the castle was simply breathtaking as it looks out over the city but also Lake Biwa and it was a beautiful day so the view was amazing and it’s HIGHLY worth the visit just for the view. Castle and grounds will look amazing soon coming into spring as they have a plum orchard as well as cherry blossoms. Highly recommend the hotel and Hikone.
