Historic Hotels in Shiga Prefecture from $44

"The first room we had was dirty so they quickly changed us to a clean room. They are militant about taking your shoes off here, we loved the free dessert bar, but overall the hotel was absolutely packed with tourists and kind of crazy. The staff, however, went above and beyond to take care of every need we had. The rooms are small for us Americans but the bed was comfortable. "

"Super comfortable western style beds and pillows. Rooms are small but beautifully designed. The breakfast is as great with lots of international choices. Close to gorgeous Japanese gardens."

"A great budget hotel very close to the station - only thing missing was a bar to have a drink in at night "

"Great property and well kept grounds. The onsen was fantastic. Welcome drink and breakfast were nice touches. They set up a baby crib and baby bedding and blanket for us, which was perfect. Only draw back is the location is a 10-15 minute walk to train station and restaurant area. They also did not have room for us for dinner in the hotel lobby "

"The hotel was definitely OK, but don't expect too much. The experience for the price and star rating is not comparable to other hotels I have stayed at, but I suppose that is because of the higher price level in Kyoto."

"The room is clean. One of the windows is operable, I can have some fresh air. Close by the train station. The shuttle bus service ends after 8 pm, I would need to take a taxi. "

"Nice hotel with excellent professional staff. The breakfast buffet was excellent. Special thanks to Miho Tanaka for assisting us locating and shipping the precious item that our son left behind in the room when we checked out. "

"Breakfast was super with a wide variety of items"

"Great location and nice rooms. "
