Aria

Very near to station! And situated opposite a mall where there’s daiso and a supermarket so overall it’s a super convenient spot.
The breakfast spread (Japanese breakfast set topped with buffet spread) was tasty and good value for money.
The room was bigger than usual Japanese hotel sizes we saw in the past and comfortable space overall. View was good too

Hikone Castle is not comparable to Himeji Castle, but its surrounded by many cherry trees. It must look gorgeous during the blossom season. And in the woods below one side of the castle, there are huge number of white birds. It's very impressive to see them returing to their nets in late afternoon. And we do like the lake sunset.YiChina - 10Scored 10

Hikone is easily reached by Shinkansen from Tokyo with a short trip (5 minutes) in a local train. The town has much to offer - an island temple easily reached by boat; a hugely impressive feudal castle (1 of only 4 genuine castles still standing in Japan) with a good museum and surrounded by 2 moats and a beautiful stroll garden. Close to the castle is are attractive streets with good quality shops and some old houses as well. The town is comfortably quiet compared to the nearby Kyoto which is now like Venice and seriously overcrowded. The one disadvantage which the town could fix very easily is that the bus service does not have information on routes and stops in English unlike Kyoto. Finally the time to visit is late March early April when the cherry blossom for which Hikone is famous is in flower.EricUnited Kingdom - 10Scored 10

Hikone is just the right distance from Kyoto when travelling by bicycle to ride around Lake Biwa. Its castle grounds turn pink in the spring cherry blossom season and reflect beautifully in the moat's waters. Other seasons have their own distinctive attractions. In all seasons the local beef is great, all you need is an appetite.MikeJapan - 10Scored 10
Nice castle and the lake.
Nice castle and the lake. It will probably take just a day to see everything. There aren’t really much else to do, so I would recommend Hikone to those, who can’t go to Himeji or who really like castles. There are nice mountains as well, but this is another story.EvgenyJapan - 8.0Scored 8.0
I enjoyed walking around the castle and garden.
I enjoyed walking around the castle and garden. I was surprised by how much there was to see at the castle grounds. I found myself intrigued by the architecture and most of all the view from the castle was amazing. You get a 360 view of the whole town including Lake Biwa.

- From £99.25 per night8.9Scored 8.9FabulousRated fabulous· 256 reviewsFun to get away from typical westernised hotels and try a ryokan with tatami mats. We were able to have a family bath in their rock bath onsen, which was a novelty. Hosts were super friendly and accomodating, and even offered to drive us to the train station. Wish my command of Japanese language was better so I could've chatted properly with the hosts.samAustralia
- From £43.69 per night7.6Scored 7.6GoodRated good· 534 reviewsI could easily located the whereabout of Toyoko Inn while getting out of the train station. There was careful design in how to maximize the use of space while not compromising comfort and ease of movement for two persons sharing a small room. For breakfast, the food was good. There was a fresh supply of food on the serving table.
Wai ManHong Kong - From £53.76 per night8.7Scored 8.7FabulousRated fabulous· 36 reviewsReally great place to stay! The owner is so warm and welcoming. He went out his way to prepare vegetarian food for me, it was a simple meal with good ingredients prepared with care. Really delicious. Not many places in Japan agree to do this so I really appreciated the gesture.
RhyannanJapan - From £42.11 per night7.8Scored 7.8GoodRated good· 1,373 reviewsIt was for a stopover. Facilities were adequate and rooms were clean. Its located near the highway and so its convenient. For those intending to tour the town, the hotel is located on the other side of Hikone station. But its only about 20 minutes to walk to Hikone Castle.Wing FaiSingapore

Room is very clean which makes me satisfied. If I could have a travel in Hikone again. I’m sure that I will book this hotel again!
