Ryokan in Otokuni

"Very clean room including the bathroom and shower considering it is shared. The staff was very nice and accommodating towards us even as foreigners. Staying at a ryokan is a bit of a culture shock but after the first night it you warm up to it and get a great experience. Food was also delicious."

"Wonderful hotel – very friendly staff. Was a nice experience!"

"The staff was amazing, the place was clean and convenient. Would definitely stay here again the next time I got to Kyoto."

"Very friendly staff and beautiful environment!"

"Love that this ryokan had halal meal options! The entire place is gorgeous with a beautiful view of Lake Biwa. Easy to get to (they have a shuttle bus from the train station). If you have a private onsen, just know that the shower is also outside. No other options, unless you use the public bath."

"Very close to tourist shopping district. Its a bit chaotic at night though."

"At the behest of a friend, I checked our family into a ryokan (traditional inn) for our maiden trip to Kyoto. The Japanese hospitality of the staff, traditional breakfast every morning (server to your room), your beds made daily and sleeping on the mattresses on tatami flooring and public bath are good experience. "
