Top Kyu Chikurinin Garden Hotel Reviews

Biwako Ryokusuitei

10/10 Excellent

"We only stayed one night, but if we ever go back to Japan we will try to book for longer. It is a bit out of the way and if you miss the last shuttle the walk back is about 20 minutes. But the traditional room with the bath on the balcony was amazing. And the buffet breakfast was fun. One night just wasn't enough time to truly enjoy the pause in our trip."

THE HOTEL HIGASHIYAMA KYOTO TOKYU, A Pan Pacific Hotel

Toyoko Inn Kyoto Biwako Otsu

10/10 Excellent

"Toyoko Hotels are usually great. They are clean, convenient, and affordable, and they tend to have lots of useful amenities or people who might have forgotten to bring something like a toothbrush or razor. This particular hotel has a really convenient location that's a short walk from several train stations and from a couple of very charming and pleasant shopping arcades. Miidera (三井寺) and Lake Biwa (琵琶湖) are also manageable walks. Otsu is a lovely and underrated city, and this hotel is in a really nice part of the city."
