The hiking above Mii Dera temple was amazing. A lot of hiking options for outdoor enthusiasts. The Mii Dera temple is also not crowded and a joy to stroll around 20 minutes walk from hotel koo.
I stayed at the Chaya house which was absolutely stunning. The staff were incredibly friendly and a joy to speak with. Otsu is a smaller quiet town with lots of character and friendly residents. I highly recommend checking out the local Izakayas and cafes for an equally excellent experience.
My husband and my experience here was absolutely incredible! The facility in the main area and our room was wonderfully lovely and high quality. The staff were amazingly helpful and friendly. We celebrated my husband's birthday here and everything was perfect!
An incredibly well designed hotel! It's modern and yet full of history of Otsu. Certainly a hidden gem. The staff is welcoming and helpful. Not to be missed is their guided tour by the hotel staff. We love hearing the stories and the neighbourhood eating places are simply amazing!! We'll surely come back again. Thanks for making our stay a truly memorable one.
We traveled to Otsu on a whim and chose Hotel Koo because we wanted to experience what it was like to stay in a traditional Japanese home. This did not disappoint- the accommodations we beautiful, serene and unusual. The town of Otsu is very quiet, but the people are amazing and the walkability down to Lake Biwa is great.
The stay was amazing and the staff and really reassuring and helpful in anything you need. They really want you to love the hotel and the history and architectural elements which are amazing and the history of the location and facts about the area . Utilising the areas dinning areas and sake .
Nestled in elegance and exquisite machiya design seamlessly merges modern aesthetics with timeless charm. Each machiya is adorned with Nordic furniture, from plush sofas to meticulously crafted tables; each element is chosen with a discerning eye for design, promising a stay that transcends accommodation to a realm of refined taste and comfort.
Thank you for the insightful tour and for sharing the history of the town; it added a delightful layer to our overall experience.

I usually stay at a typical Japanese Business Hotel but decided to stay a this newly renovated Machiya into 13 room guest facility. It was very will done. Large room and bathroom/shower. Common area with refreshments. A very comfortable place to stay.
