Even though I don’t swim in the sea, I travel solo year-round in search of gourmet Accommodations near the coast (for the food and scenery). I was delighted to be upgraded to a sea-view Room. It was a Japanese-style Room, but it also had a leather sofa and ottoman, so I could stretch out and relax while gazing at the ocean. When I woke up around 5:00, I was able to watch a beautiful sunrise from the Room. There is a calm inner-sea beach right in front of the Accommodation, and there are showers as well—great for families with small children. The meals were outstanding, featuring an abundance of local specialties. My main goal was Wakasa-guji (tilefish), but it was even more delicious than I imagined—the Wakasa-guji ochazuke was exceptional. And the Matsunaga rice was unbelievably good (probably the best I’ve ever had). I didn’t use the public bath and used the shower in my Room instead, but I loved that the shampoo and conditioner were Hokurokusousui—one of my favorite brands—and it helped me relax. Recently there have been more Accommodations renovated from wooden buildings, but some noise—voices and footsteps—is unavoidable. You can often hear children as well. It’s not exactly quiet. However, more than making up for that, I felt each staff member’s hospitality and way of interacting with guests was wonderful. In particular: the woman with glasses who assisted me at check-in; the woman at breakfast (I’m sorry—I forgot your name); and one of the male staff members who kindly gave me helpful advice for sightseeing in Obama after check-out. Thanks to them, it became more than just an overnight stay—I had a chance to learn even more about Obama, making this trip extremely satisfying. I heard that midwinter is especially good for grouper, pufferfish, and Echizen crab. As transportation access improves from here on out, this will be an Accommodation you’ll want to visit even more. Next time it would be perfect if I could borrow a firmer pillow!! Please make that happen on my next visit!! (I can’t sleep if a pillow doesn’t suit me.) Thank you very much to all of your staff for everything.

Thank you for coming out to the car in the rain to help with our luggage. We were able to enjoy dinner at a relaxed pace in a calm atmosphere. I’m a light eater, so I’m very sorry for not finishing everything. When we visit Shiga again, we would love to stay at GUZU.

Dinner was a course featuring pufferfish and a boat platter, and we enjoyed plenty of pufferfish. The local sake was also delicious, and we ended up drinking more than planned. Breakfast was Japanese-style as well, with side dishes that paired nicely with white rice. The homemade pickled plums were tasty too. We stayed in a detached room, but the stairs were steep, so going up and down with a suitcase felt a bit unsafe. The bath was small, but very relaxing. The bath mat was quite slippery, which concerned me, but overall the place was clean and the staff were sincere and attentive. It was a wonderful guesthouse—I’d like to bring my father next time.

This auberge is located in a small, quiet cove. You can step out to the shore right away, and the view from the dining area is beautiful and soothing. The owner’s home-cooked dishes are delicious—especially the simmered fish and octopus rice, which were outstanding. The water is also excellent; we were told it is tap water. A staff member mentioned that Obama’s water is said to be even better than sake.

Yukata were provided. If possible, I would have appreciated having loungewear in the Room as well. Breakfast was very disappointing, as most items seemed to be frozen foods that were simply reheated. The rice, however, was cooked in a pot and was very delicious. The staff member on the floor had a pleasant smile.

A gourmet Accommodation offering breathtaking views from the bedroom and dining room, along with a peaceful atmosphere where you can faintly hear the sound of the waves. The sweetfish, carp, and freshwater shrimp were all delicious, and not only dinner but breakfast was also exceptionally high quality. On the way back, we stopped by the Kohoku Wild Bird Center and were able to see a birdwatching paradise through a telescope.

We stayed as a couple in our 50s. Rather than a Hotel, it feels more like a charming pension-style place, which suits it well. The front desk gave the impression that they may be operating more efficiently than before, and that’s perfectly fine. The staff were all ladies older than us, so the pace was a bit relaxed—but in an endearing way. It felt warm and comfortable. The Room was spacious, with Lake Biwa stretching out beyond the window. Since this area tends to feel cold, even in April they had a heater and blankets prepared. We chose the Omi beef steak course. From the photos I wondered if it might not be enough, but it was very filling and satisfying. For breakfast, we were happy to be able to choose either Japanese or Western style. The curry was especially delicious! The bath is not an Onsen, but it was kept very clean. We went to see the Osaki cherry blossoms by the inlet. Next time, I’d love to visit again during the season when the metasequoia trees are at their best.

We stayed with six classmates on a friend’s recommendation. Thank you for kindly helping us with various questions in advance. It was firefly season, and we were able to see them near the Accommodation as well. The meals focused on locally sourced ingredients, and we were impressed to grill and enjoy fresh meat, fish, and vegetables over the irori hearth. Although it’s a spacious house, it was thoroughly cleaned and very comfortable to stay in. Thank you for everything—we had a truly wonderful trip.

My spouse and I stayed for one night while sightseeing around the Mikata Five Lakes. The Accommodation is on the shore of Lake Mikata, and the view from our Room was wonderful—the sunset was dazzling. Dinner featured a boat platter of sashimi that was more than enough for two, and it was fresh and delicious. The other dishes (corn sesame tofu, Wagyu beef, and a clam hot pot with salted butter, etc.) were also carefully prepared and beautifully seasoned, leaving us completely satisfied. Breakfast was delicious as well and very filling. It was also great to be able to see Lake Mikata from the bath. It’s just over a 10-minute drive to the Mikata Five Lakes Terrace, making this Accommodation highly recommended for trips to the Mikata Five Lakes or Wakasa Bay. We’d love to visit again during crab season someday.

I booked this pension within walking distance because I had long dreamed of seeing the fresh green metasequoia-lined avenue in the morning and evening. I also used everyone’s Reviews as a reference. Luckily, we were blessed with great weather, and we fully enjoyed the vibrant new greenery along the metasequoia trees and felt refreshed by the clean air. Early in the morning there were hardly any tourists, and our walk became a truly wonderful time. Dinner was delicious from start to finish—from the main Omi beef to the apple sorbet—and we were completely satisfied. The recommended white wine was far better than its price suggested, making the meal even more enjoyable. Breakfast was also outstanding, especially the freshly baked bread and homemade strawberry sauce (jam). Above all, both our room and the large public bath were beautifully maintained and very clean, and in so many moments we felt warmed by the thoughtful hospitality of the owner and family—it became a soothing, heartwarming trip. When we left after check-out, the owner waved goodbye as we drove out of the parking lot, which deeply moved both my husband and me. We would love to visit again in a different season next time. Thank you very much.

Upon arrival, the host kindly took photos of us with a beautiful view in the background. The Room is filled with carefully chosen interior pieces, and you can really feel the warmth of wood. His explanations and conversation were so enjoyable, and we found everything fascinating. The amenities in the Room are thoughtfully provided with no waste, and you can truly feel the attention to detail. From the windows on the 1st floor, 2nd floor, and even the bathroom, the metasequoia-lined avenue is right in front of you. I was looking forward to a morning walk. Dinner at night— compared to meals at typical travel Accommodations— felt like a standard menu at first..., but I expected that “standard” would come with real care and confidence. And it did. The burdock appetizer was amazing, just as mentioned in Reviews. The tartar sauce on the fried shrimp was also excellent. The simmered hamburger steak was incredibly tender as well. They even shared the secret behind the salad dressing. It makes perfect sense that he used to run a popular Western-style restaurant in Osaka (which he calls a “diner”). We had such fun chatting that it never ended—happy. On your morning walk, you can have the empty metasequoia-lined avenue all to yourself. It’s become a place I definitely want to visit again.

I visited with friends on a trip. The green-themed glamping interior was adorable! We chose a meal-included Plan, and the Shiga beef barbecue for dinner and the bread for breakfast were delicious—the bread was enjoyed while watching the sunrise. The Facility staff were very friendly, making our stay comfortable! There were kiwi fruits growing on the premises, and we heard they might be ready to eat around November, so I’d love to visit again.

Stayed with breakfast and dinner included for a trip to Chikubu Island. The rate was very good for a stay with two meals, and the food was plentiful and delicious. Compared with a Business Hotel, the Room and the bathroom/toilet are more spacious, so you can relax comfortably. The discount on the sightseeing boat was also a plus, and the Shuttle Service to/from the station and the sightseeing boat pier was a welcome service.

The machiya-style Accommodation was wonderful. The bathroom was clean and easy to use, and the bed was fluffy, so I slept very well. The sea is nearby, and the quiet, charming streetscape made it a relaxing place to stay. The stairs were steep and a little scary, but it also added to the machiya atmosphere, which I appreciated.

We stayed in Cottage Building B. There isn’t a private dog run, but there’s a large dog run right in front, which was actually better for our dog. Our first time trying the pool took about 20 minutes for our dog to get used to the water, but then he paddled desperately toward the edge—our bath-hating pup managed to swim 1 meter. At night, the stars were incredibly beautiful and we could see the Milky Way! It said “unit bath,” but it’s a shower. With four people, laying out the futons was a bit of work, but it was enough for us. It was a relaxing, dog-first vacation. Thank you very much.

A hidden gem!! We stayed with our pet, and honestly, the Room was extremely clean. We stay with our pet about five times a year, and this place is truly spotless. The open grounds are spacious and refreshing, and in the morning and at night there’s a pleasant breeze. It’s also conveniently located near Lake Biwa and Wakasa, making it great for sightseeing.

The living room is spacious, so you can relax with your dog. The kitchen is also very easy to use. There are two Rooms, so up to about three guests can stay comfortably. There are rice fields right nearby, making it easy to go for a walk. The bathroom is small, so you may prefer to go to Makino.

The children were delighted, and we had a relaxing time. The ski resort was nearby, and the kitchen was well-equipped, making it a wonderful holiday. We would love to stay here again.

This time, we stayed as a group of four, including my parents. The location was very quiet, with the Room right in front of Lake Biwa—an absolutely stunning view. The amenities were well-prepared, and the pajamas were fluffy and very comfortable to wear. However, the bathtub didn’t fill up much no matter how many times we tried, and for some reason, the water was lukewarm. We set it to 47 degrees and added hot water from the faucet. Still, the view from the bath was amazing, and we could relax while soaking in it. We look forward to staying here again.
