Top Hikone Hotel Reviews

Yumotokan

8/10 Good

"Booked this as an anniversary present and it was a great place to stay. The venue is beautiful with different areas to eat dinner and a buffet for breakfast. Different Onsen's to use if you don't have one in your room. We had 1 in our room which was big enough to fit 2 people and had a view and slightly open so you got a wonderful breeze. A bus can also take you to and from the venue and the near station (leaving at scheduled times). Only issue was that you need to make sure that either on your booking or at check in you let them know about food allergies/intolerances etc. so they can prepare something for you if you eat at their restaurants. Other than that, a wonderful place and lovely stay."

Grand Mercure Lake Biwa Resort & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Stayed twice in 2018 and 2026. Both times, the staff were warm and helpful. The bathing facilities are clean and well-stocked with amenities. The outdoor bath/ rotemburo is beautifully landscaped. In 2026, the upgraded facilities were modern and elegant. Lounge featuring refreshing beverages was relaxing. New beautiful yukata and slipper sets, including children’s sizes. Happy hour and nightcap in lobby with free drinks, snacks, beer, wine, sake, spirits. Breakfast: nicely features local specialties Transportation: free shuttle bus to Nagahama eki/station. Love the thoughtful amenities: family-friendly baby cribs, tray carts for seniors"

Lake Biwa Marriott Hotel

8/10 Good

"we liked this hotel and we are planning to go back pros: onsen, location, and great view cons: some areas required better care or be renewed and you need to pay to use the pool. If you like to drive a bike I believe is a nice place to do it, that actually what I want to do on my next stay, just I believe the food is a bit overpriced compared with other hotels that I have stayed in Japan"

Kamenoi Hotel Hikone

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic stay in this onsen style ryokan. Had a wonderful private onsen in our room, overlooking the river and the lake beyond. Can’t ask for a more perfect experience. Waking up early to soak in our private room onsen before dressing and heading down for the Japanese style breakfast included."
