Top Shozuiji Temple Hotel Reviews

Yumotokan

10/10 Excellent

"My partner and I had an amazing time here!! We wanted a private onsen bc we have tattoos and it was everything we wanted and more!! The staff were so kind and attentive and the room and amenities blew us away, we will definitely be back and book an even longer stay next time!"

Biwako Grand Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was gorgeous, it gave you that really comforting feeling especially after a full day of walking. We booked the private spa due to having tattoos it was magnificent, definitely book the half board the staff for dinner and breakfast were amazing! I absolutely loved the restaurant ladies they were such welcoming people and loved to feed us. Thank you all for such an amazing experience"

Biwako Ryokusuitei

10/10 Excellent

"Oh my God, I am obsessed with the Ryokusuitei! I could not believe such a place existed. Throughout our stay, we felt treated as royalty. The service❤️ Oh, I miss all the hard-working ladies and gentlemen at this hotel - they were so good to us ❤️ The food, the FOOD was so amazing ❤️ The evening kaiseki shabu-shabu, as well as the sprawling Japanese-style breakfast (be aware this is a Japanese breakfast buffet, not an international one, so if you don't like fish or pickles - that's on you). The private onsen on the balcony, with a view of the lake! I could cry just thinking about it. The water was lightly scented 🌺 The hotel is well worth the price, when you are basically getting the royal experience for a short little while. They also have a free shuttle that will pick you up at the nearest train station, which is easily accessible both from Osaka station and from Kyoto. Overall 10/10 highly recommend!"

Lake Biwa Otsu Prince Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great English speaking staff with beautiful rooms. We booked last minute for one night and got a free upgrade. The view of the lake and city is gorgeous. I would recommend staying here for comfort."

Hotel Boston Plaza Kusatsu

8/10 Good

"雨の日でしたが、駅から殆ど傘も使わずにホテルのドアまで行ける便利さが嬉しかったです。ただ設備が少し今のニーズに合っていないように思いました。例えば最近のホテルには備えられているUSBのチャージポートがベッド傍にも見当たらないようでした。利用したお部屋がある貫"

Satoyu Mukashibanashi Yuzanso Ryokan

10/10 Excellent

"Great food and beautiful location"

moksa Rebirth Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely adored my stay here only wish it was longer. Nicely remote because I find the tourists in Kyoto quite overwhelming and the sauna was lovely. Breakfast was also amazing and they accommodated my allergies without stress."

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."
