Country Houses in Shiga Prefecture

Inase is built within an old house, I believe. It’s very unique and fun to step back in time and experience Japan in a deeper way than modern ryokans. I highly recommend it and will certainly stay there again.

This is a stylish hotel, clean and convenient, with good food. My room had no desk, so it is not convenient for business.

Amazing place on a quiet, scenic neighborhood. Sights abound, and a peaceful river running right by it. A little slice of heaven in Nagahama.

The hotel is very vice, with several options for eating, shopping and other activities.

This was a beautiful ryokan to stay. The staff are very helpful to english speaking visitors and can accommodate very well. This ryokan offers you to dine in an intimate setting so you're in a separate room with your guests/partner. Other ryokans have you sit in a restaurant style setting so you're in a large room with open tables. Our waitress and maid was super helpful and very caring for us while we stayed. The ryokan has several onsen locations in the building, they rotate one days the men...

Very unique

Hotel is new , clean, and quiet. At the heart of shopping district but quite and organized.

We absolutely loved the onsen/natural springs! The room was very stylish and lovely. The hotel really relaxed us after a day of sightseeing. Nothing like a good soak to relax your mind AND body! We stayed in two other hotels during our 8 night stay in Japan and we voted this one our favorite!

Beautiful hotel with a beautiful room. Very spacious and the tub was perfect for relaxing. The staff were very kind and helpful. In a great location by the river and a lot of restaurants.

Amazing! The property offered a shuttle ride from the station. We were greeted with a cup of tea. We were also taken to our room and with assistance and given a thorough tour of the space and the services that the hotel provided. The property has a beautiful view of the lake. The room was spacious for our group. Highly recommend the meals offered for dinner and breakfast. The onsen was also clean and spacious.

Reception desk is working well especially Miss Chan is multiple working and always give me the best solutions. Great appreciate Best Ling

Very nice

Clean room,

Indeed a relaxing place to stay

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.

The Boston Hotel is literally steps just outside the JR Kusatsu train station. If traveling by train, the convenience really can't be beat. The room was very clean and well maintained, though small as with many Japanese rooms. Only 2 people can fit so we had 2 rooms for a family of 4 and it worked great. There were slippers and a sleeping gown to freely use and the selection of toiletries was surprisingly robust. The service was exceptional as we had no trouble speaking with the lobby...

Quick breakdown, I only had one week to book a hotel and I was looking for a true Japanese B&B. Staff was amazing and very nice. Location is 10 minutes (car ride) from JR station. When you get to the station, ask the person in the station to call for your hotel ride. DO NOT attempt to go up that hill with luggage. There is not a walkway. The transport to and from hotel is included in price. Hotel grounds are large, you can tell that this place used to be very popular. Public bath is...
