Hotels with WiFi in Hikone

"What surprised us most about this hotel was the amazing breakfast! There was so much variety! It's very close to Hikone station. It seems that it even offers bicycles for (free) use. We thought of going for a short bike ride in the morning but didn't have enough time--needed to get to Kyoto (only an hour away) quickly. This hotel makes an overnight trip to see beautiful Hikone castle very feasible."

"Thank you very much to Ctrip customer service Saga. I contacted him after I got on the train from Kyoto to Hikone and asked the hotel to pick me up. He solved the problem as fast as lightning, accurately, efficiently and with high quality! The public transportation from Kyoto to Hikone takes about an hour. When I arrived, I found the hotel's transportation bus accurately and clearly according to the notification. I was picked up by myself. The journey took five minutes. It was in the direction of Hikone Castle. It was not recommended to walk with luggage. It would be more tiring. If you take a taxi, it would cost about 700 yen. Half of the hotel room faces the castle and the other half has no view. The scenery facing the castle is very beautiful. I checked in on April 2, 2025. The cherry blossoms will be in full bloom after April 10. My room on the top floor of the 5th floor faces the castle tower, and the scenery is first-class. The room is not big. The other bed is attached to the wall and it is inconvenient to go up and down. It is just right for one person to live. The bathroom has been renovated. The room style is more old-fashioned, not old. The room without a view on the other side is smaller, and the check-in experience is poor. I booked a one-night stay and two meals, and Japanese cuisine for dinner. I think the quality is very good, but the duck hot pot tastes average, and the overall sincerity is full. The breakfast is simpler, there is no hot spring egg, but there are all kinds of freshly fried vegetable tempura. The breakfast is worse than that of Ogoto Ryokusuitei, and the dinner is about the same level. They are all hotels that cook very carefully, so you can rest assured to choose the meal package. The lounge has beer and juice, but no snacks. The male and female hot spring baths are not changed. The female baths are 38.5 degrees and 42.5 degrees, so one is too cold and the other is too hot. 41 degrees is better. The reason for giving one star for hygiene is: I found a green Japanese-style outer coat with oil spots and changed it to a purple flower one. This is the decision I regret the most, which means that it should not be worn without washing. After taking a hot spring bath in the afternoon, I put it on and drank tea in the room. I felt that it smelled bad. I picked up the outer coat and smelled it. I almost didn't send it away. The stench made me rush to the bathroom to vomit. It was the stench of people with severe bad breath sneezing several times at the clothes. This kind of clothes is not like a yukata. It is not changed for each guest. It is very unhygienic. The slipper cabinet is also smelly, and the slippers are a little sticky on the floor. I went to the hot spring again to wash it again and change into my own clothes, but the feeling of nausea was difficult to eliminate. The hotel will pick you up at the station at 9, 10, or 11 in the morning, and the staff are courteous and considerate."

"Brilliant little hotel, less than a minutes walk to the JR station which includes a very helpful tourist info centre and breakfast buffet included for every customer. Bathroom was modern new and shiny with a generous sized bath (for Japan) and the duvet felt especially nice. Decor is modern and mild but not by any means plain. Hotel also has a free mini Sento that is free to use with separate facilities for men and women which is also modern."

"The room was new and spacious. Although we found two or three flying insects in the bathroom, it's understandable that it's hard to avoid. It was much better than the Kame-no-i room in Katsuura, Kii. The upgraded dinner was decent, and the self-service coffee machine had soft drinks, but the coffee was terrible. We checked out at 10 am, and since the onsen (hot spring) was open until 9 am, we didn't have time to soak after breakfast. After checking out, it started raining heavily, so we sat in the lobby waiting for it to stop. The air conditioning was a bit cold, and we wanted to borrow the yukatas (light robes) for guests in the lobby, but were refused. The service was disappointing."

"It's 400 meters to the right from the east exit of Hikone Station, on the east side of the road. The room was clean and tidy, and the self-service check-in machine was convenient and quick. Breakfast was served from 6:30 to 9:30, and the taste was acceptable, so don't expect too much. I would stay here again."

"Very good location, close to Shiga station. Many eateries nearby. Walking distance to Hikone castle. Friendly staff with good English. The only downfall is that the layout of the room is rather cramped, so if you have more than 1 big luggage it might be a bit difficult to pack and unpack."

"The breakfast is very good and the hot spring experience is also very good. There was no one when I went there, it was just a charter. The location is right by the lake, comfortable and quiet, there is a 7-11 next to it, you can do some simple purchases. The owner of the hotel is a kind and amiable grandmother, who can recommend local activities to us in simple English. I am very grateful to her for taking care of her for a few days."

"大人の家族3人で泊まるには、部屋が広くて彦根城も見えてすごくよかったです。 お風呂も広くて疲れが取れます。 セカンドハウスマンションなのかな？という変わったつくりで、決して新しくはないけど、不自由ないように手入れされていて快適です。 朝食はひと口サイズのパンが何種類もあり、コーヒーも美味しくて満足できました。 ドライヤーがなくて電話してしまいましたが…テレビ台の中にありました。洗面台やわかりやすいところに置いてあればよかったかなと思います。 チェックアウト後に荷物を預かってもらい、冷蔵したいお土産のお漬物をお願いしたら、小さいので大丈夫ですと言ってもらい、アットホームで親切な対応に感激しました。 駅に近いので観光にとても便利で、コスパがよいホテルです。"

"I stayed here while my child was taking an exam. It was clean and nice. The service was also good. The breakfast buffet was delicious, but it would have been great if they had provided fruit."
