From my perspective, there wasn't much to do within a mile walk of the property.
Only one restaurant off site in that mile two convenience stores and if you walk a bit further a pretty mellow "redlight" district

Otsu Town seems not beautiful at first sigh.
Otsu Town seems not beautiful at first sigh. But go to have a walk behind the hotel. The countryside is like a Miyazaki movie getting real ! You can go near from there : temples, beach, ski station with incredible view… But with the hotel’s shuttle and the station you have Kyoto, very near, Nara, Osaka a little farther. You’ve got all Kansaï by JR… A good tip : when you go to the station to Shirahige shrine, don’t take bus but walk with GPS. The way is just incredible with village, other shrines so quiet and monkey looking at you from the forest behind rice fields…

Otsu, located near Kyoto, is another treasure place in Japan. Faced to Biwa lake it has many historical monument and cultural hotspots. In summer the big firework event is so famous to attract many people. In Biwako Hall many world class concerts and plays are performed. Local fishes and sakes are another charm for visitors. Once you come here you cannot help missing this unforgettable city.

At first I thought I might be bored but there’s so much to do! It’s a little difficult to travel from place to place; lots of walking. But there’s lots of history, friendly people, and beautiful nature.

Otsu is a great location to get away from the city life of Japan. It is quite peaceful here and is located next to a large lake (lake biwa) which is perfect for fishing enthusiasts. Overall, this location is clean and quiet, different from the bustling cities of Japan and i would recommend this place to those who enjoy a scenic walk and a calm environment.

Beautiful spot near the lake.
Beautiful spot near the lake. Perfect for those that want to stay a little out of the hustle and bussle, in perhaps a bigger / better value for money hotel, but still within close proximity to Kyoto.
Everything.The service provided is top notch even though we are using English as a medium of speak. The room is spacious and the bath provided is just so good. Since we're ordering Halal menu set, I would say the menu is fantastic as it includes seafood, beef and chicken which is hard to find for halal option here. The shuttle service also is quite helpful as there is no medium of transportation to the Ryoukan from the station and a mobile phone is provided to contact them at the station.
Gorgeous views, perfect place for a little relaxing break. Good amenities and very friendly and helpful staff. Overall just a beautiful spacious place. Love that there is a complimentary shuttle service (which leaves every 30 min from Otsu station to the hotel and then back, so plan trips to Otsu station for ease of travel).
Just amazing - dinner and breakfast served exceptionally well in a private room. Onsen bath experience is awesome. We switched over to this hotel due to online positive reviews. Would love to come back again every time we visit Kyoto. 20 min train ride out to the bay area, but worth it.
The innkeeper is an artist and she acts as your surrogate mother while you are here. Be sure to ask for room 203 which is set up as a traditional Japanese living room. She and her husband got up in the middle of the night to see me off. I couldn't recommend more highly.
breakfast was ok, quality was good and had western options and good japanese food. was well run. beds were very comfortable (not hard). reception had very little english but no problem communicating despite this and everything went very smooth
the service group is very good and professional. all the people very kind, onsen is damn nice remember rent included onsen bath in room also. it is very confortable. the dinner also very good. Getting nice experience come to japan
The staff was very friendly; when I asked to change my bed from the top to the bottom, they did so cordially. And above all. It's close to a train station for travelling to Kyoto. They have washer and dryer machine.
Exceptional hospitality from hotel staff; private room for dinner was a plus. Room was roomy, warm and comfortable. Onsen was alright. Lovely view of Lake Biwa from the room; great sunrise in the morning.
This was a hidden treasure. I was very happy to have found this place. Wonderful hosts, very welcoming and caring, everything very clean and newly renovated. Authentic Japanese. Absolutely wonderful!
It was very nice to stay in a real Japanese house. It was well outfitted and very clean with many amenities. It was a little hard to find in the dark. Hostess was very friendly and communicative
