Yawata Hotel with Pool

"Room was very spacious and comfortable. The private Onsen was a treat and the public Onsen is fantastic! They sure feed you well here too!!"

"Amazing experience. Deluxe room was perfect with the private hot tub if you want to be able to have a hot tub after getting back from a long day or right before bed."

"Good Onsen in the mountainous part of North Osaka, excellent food and nice bath, complete with winter sakura blossoming at the outdoor pool."

"especially enjoyed the castle view and the pool every day"

"Pool table an extra bonus."

"Unfortunately, we had an issue come up (not related to the house)that forced us to leave a day early. We enjoyed the house for our large group for the day we were there. We used mostly taxis to get around. They were very convenient, as public transport was not. One thing to note about houses in cities of Japan - the stirs in the house are steep"

"Love that this ryokan had halal meal options! The entire place is gorgeous with a beautiful view of Lake Biwa. Easy to get to (they have a shuttle bus from the train station). If you have a private onsen, just know that the shower is also outside. No other options, unless you use the public bath."

"We had a lovely time here! We were travelling by public transport, and this spot is a little of out of the way, but they sent a shuttle to the train station and it was easy to arrive. It was not clear from their website that the restaurant would not be open for dinner, and the closest restaurant by foot (other than McDonald's) was a 30 minute walk away. That was no problem; we had a nice walk, a great dinner, and really loved the onsen!"
