I could not recommend this hotel enough if you intend to stay in the Hikone area. The hotel itself is surprisingly luxurious with great amenities and service. It's right outside of the Hikone castle area and you can get a great view of the castle and the surrounding areas basically at all times. It's also right near the Yumek

Can see the view of the castle when you are enjoying onsen and the longue bar. Room is very clean and tidy which gives you the feeling of relaxation and comfortable. Staff is very nice and friendly which say geetings for my birthday and prepare some gift which makes me feel surprised. Breakfast is very nice too which have lots of choices. Highly recommend to all of you! Will stay again next time when travel to Hikone!

Nice experience for traditional Japan

Nice place to stay. The room is quite small as usual in Japan however, the service was quite good. Friendly staffs, free spa and drinks every evening were fantastic experience for me. The hotel also gave me a pick-up service from train station.

Onsen hotel with style and a view

Amazing hotel in every way, from we arrived to we left. Located with a view to the castle and the moat, the hotel couldn’t have had a better location. And they complete the experience with a tasteful decor, friendly manner, clean rooms with good WiFi, and an excellent breakfast. Be sure to try the onsen (hot bath) with a view to the castle after dark when it’s lit up.

This hotel adjacent to the Hikone Castle. There are great castle views from the large windows by the elevators. Rooms are small by Western standards but average for a Japanese hotel. The hotel staff are very helpful but many have minimal English language skills.
