"The meals were fabulous - beautifully prepared and delicious. This is a well maintained older traditional Japanese styled hotel with an excellent view of Lake Biwa and walking distance to Hikone Castle. "

"Taka San was incredibly welcoming and friendly. The room was super traditional and very spacious and there was a lot of space in the house for group dining a nice garage space to hang out as well. The guesthouse is in a very beautiful and scenic area. I would highly recommend Taka San and his guesthouse to anybody looking to visit the area."

"This is a very local non touristy village. We enjoyed the hospitality (even if we couldn’t communicate)
The owner helped accomadate my sea food allergy. We really liked the hot bath available in the beautiful water. The only thing I would say is that it isn’t close to anything and you have to walk about 22 minutes to the train "

"This was a very nice place to discover Nagahama. The owner, Judo, was super social and enthousiast about sharing the local culture, gave me good recommandations, and even took me to some rehearsal of kodomo kabuki. If you like to
The rooms were very clean and confortable, especially the bed !"

"Vessel Inns really growing on me. Rooms are usually bigger than most standard Japanese biz hotels with free 'proper' coffee in the lobby an added bonus. Breakfast at the downstairs bakery also 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."
"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"
"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"
"A very decent ryokan with beautiful public hot spring and sauna. Good amenities. Very nice private onsen with a view to Lake Biwa. Free pre dinner drinks and snacks."
"Amazing property! The staff were so kind. I lost my glasses off of the balcony and the next day staff searched to find them for me!
The onsen on the balcony was so wonderful! A very spacious room with nice amenities. Great view of lake Biwa. Would highly recommend!"
"Excellent breakfast even for vegans. Clean facilities, super helpful staff, Close to Kusatsu station. The room was small for two people and lacked some ease of life facilities (place to hang wet towels, AC took some time to get going, tub had only a hand shower)"
