Koke Musu inn

Otsu

A recently renovated guest house in Otsu, Koke Musu inn offers outdoor fireplace, private parking and sports facilities. It is situated 12 km from Daigo-ji Temple and provides a shared kitchen. The guest house features city views, a sun terrace, a 24-hour front desk, and free WiFi is available throughout the property. The design and layout of the room was creative and comfortable. Such attention to details - hooks conveniently located, lights at all the right places and all of them are dimmable from a remote control. Very clever use of space to fit in all the amenities. I enjoyed spending time in my room! The common spaces are wonderful too - a brand new pool table at the dining area. Miyu and her husband are very hardworking and talented. I feel so lucky to have been their guest. Highly recommend Koke Musu:Inn to all travellers with a sense of adventure. The inn is a short 15-min walk from the station and is just across Lake Biwa. There are many eateries nearby, as well as convenience stores and supermarkets. Perfect place to spend a few days.

Guesthouse Shin

Omihachiman

Offering a garden and quiet street view, Guesthouse Shin is located in Omihachiman, 38 km from Sanzen-in Temple and 39 km from Mount Hiei. This guest house offers free private parking, free shuttle service and free WiFi. The property is non-smoking and is set 37 km from Enryaku-ji Temple. My wife and I are not young folks anymore. The trip to the bathroom during the night was somewhat difficult for us. The bedroom was on the upper floor in the lovely traditional Japanese house. The narrow stairway was challenging for us. There is ample room downstairs and perhaps owners would accommodate a request to put the bedding there.
