Otsu Kanda Shrine Hotels

"Dinner and breakfast were both amazing. The stay was very enjoyable"

"The place is lovely, and the staff is wonderful. I’m just not sure it’s worth the trip up to Ohara…"

"The staff was very helpful especially for checking on whether places were open and on obtaining a taxi. The rooms lack places to put your clothes and lack suitcases stands so one must plan to use the limited supply of hangars and live out of a suitcase. The showers are handheld so one might instead plan to use the open facilities and hot baths. The food was excellent and help is available everywhere."

"Everyone was so friendly and helpful. The onsen was amazing! The dinner and breakfast they serve is very large and delicious. The area is perfect for someone wanting peace and quiet. I would love to go back and stay again!"

"Our whole family loved the stay. Breakfast and kaiseki dinner were great! Onsen in our room was just amazing, I enjoyed every moment of it. Hotel staff was very helpful and rooms were clean and comfortable. Hotel itself is a bit off the beaten path and after stampede of tourists in Kyoto offers a calm refuge. If you can rent a car or afford taxi, you can visit all kinds of amazing places without any crowds."

"Fantastic place to stay for my first time in Japan after being in Tokyo. This place receives forwarded luggage, staff are very helpful/kind, the property is easy to navigate, and the shuttle system was great. The shuttle was very helpful getting back and forth from the station. Also, they have a cell phone at the station to call for the shuttle so no need to worry if you don’t have a Japanese phone number. Would stay again and recommend it to foreigners wanting to have a Ryokan experience. Get the half board option because the food was amazing!"

"Good"

"clean"

"The staff are the only thing here worth anything. The hotel is located past a toll bridge making this place hard to get to and expensive for those using a car or taxi, the room we booked was supposed to be a non smoking room, we were then told that there was no non smoking room available for us so the staff switched us between 2 or 3 hotels doing their best to accomidate us, they rushed a clean for us and it was very touching, even after all was said and done when we made the decision not to stay the staff was more concerned with us than anything else even going as far as offering to drive us to wherever we were going to stay for the night. This we declined as we didnt have a solid plan in mind but that level of care and dedication i wasnt expecting from really anyone. So thank you guys for trying your best."
