2 tähden hotellit kohteessa Shigan prefektuuri, Japani

Ok. First of all leave your expectations at home expecting hotel level service. Once you've done that if you want a cheap but clean place to stay this is it. This is a seinenkan - a facility for youth and youth-related organizations to conduct independent study and recreational activities, many of which have basic accommodation facilities but higher grade facilities than youth hostels. They are located all over Japan. I stayed in a tatami mat room on a floor with shared toilet facilities. The ground floor has a large communal bath - obviously separate for male and females. They have lights out at 11 p.m. and guests must return by the same time. There is a very modern cafe onsite serving cheap breakfasts (see photos) but the cafe closes by 6 p.m. There is a convenience store 10 minutes walk away so I suggest you buy snacks and beverages en route from JR Ishiyama station. For dinner, there is a family restaurant - good value and okay food - about 6 minutes walk away. The seinenkan is located on a small island by a historic bridge. The views of the river inlet flowing into the main Lake Biwa is relaxing, lots of bird wildlife, and lots of rowers (the seinenkan is a water sports facility too). and the sunrise and sunset views are lovely. The staff are very kind. It cost me ¥5,500 for one night and I will stay there again if I have the opportunity.

Excellent location, right at the station. Check in 16h00. No wifi offered. Hotel access via public restaurant - feels weird to walk between diners to go out / return. Lockers far too narrow even for airline carry-on. Bathroom is clean, shower has small dry area, and water pressure varies. Capsules are spacious with power socket, lights, shelf, etc. The mattress is a few cm thick piece of soft foam and is so worn that it feels like a slab of concrete wrapped in a sheet. Very uncomfortable! And I am 77kg, not overweight. The pillow is a bag filled with what feels like gravel stones. Breakfast comprises one hot / cold drink, a small pile of lettuce leaves with dressing, a thick slab of white bread that is scored about half way deep into a small chessboard and very lightly toasted, and a thimble-size serving of sweet fruit yoghurt. They do offer to hold luggage until 16h00 after check-out, and collecting it is easy and fast.

Great option for visiting the Shirahige Shrine. The host offered a ride in the early morning after knowing we were planning to go, which was extremely kind of him. Room was very spacious and clean, with a nice view. Very close to the station and easy to find. The only thing I would note is that there was only one bath. We arrived around 830pm and planned to take the bath shortly, but by the time we settled and got downstairs (around 9pm), someone else was using it so we couldn't get in until after 930. It was a shame that we couldn't enjoy the hot bath as much as we wanted as we tried to hurry out for the next group since they were waiting after us but I'm not sure if they were able to use it as the bath closes at 10pm.

Inase is a really amazing and beautiful place. If you're looking for peace after spending time in Kyoto or other big cities, it's the best place to get a rest. Staff is very polite and friendly, breakfast is delicious, and the garden inside is beautiful. We had some troubles with the luggage, but they helped us to deal with it, so grateful for that. This place is 10/10. Don't hesitate and just book it.

入住這家旅館可以説是我整趟琵琶湖繞湖之旅最正確、也是最温馨的一個決定了。寫的有點長，重點在後頭，諸位如不趕時間可以細細看看😄 這是一家正宗的日式家庭旅館，經營旅館的是一對和藹的夫婦，年紀看來已經半老了。旅館坐落在黑門市場旁，鬧中取靜，距離市場和大通寺都很近～ 旅館內部環境出人意料的好，外面保留了老町屋的原貌，走進去卻發現裝修不顯老氣，典雅精緻，是審美很不錯的日式老旅館呢。 廁所和浴室的裝修也很現代，設備都是新的，非常震驚，維護的很好，甚至超過了許多我住過的許多日本商務旅館。 我住的日式間屋外有一個小巧的庭院，別有洞天。旅館的早餐也是相當豐盛，種類繁多，許多也是琵琶湖的土產食材，口味也不錯，十分推薦～ 重點來了！三谷旅館的男女主人超級超級熱情有禮！得知我是外國人之後也是照顧有加！前往長濱碼頭和大通寺時主人都是主動領路，一路上也是介紹長濱的名物，男主人頭髮有些花白卻充滿活力，相必很鍾情於長濱的風土吧～ 臨離開時，兩位店主還送了我一套長濱曳山祭的明信片，真是一對可愛的人哪😄 我是獨自旅行，誤打誤撞選擇了這家旅館，不曾想是此行最大的驚喜。我在長濱停留的時間很短，折算下來也就是一天一夜，且天公不作美，多是下雨。但幸是遇上了三谷旅館，對於長濱的回憶便是春雨般的温情了。 祝店主兩口子健健康康，順心順意～將來我如果路過長濱，若時間允許，為了三谷旅館我也會刻意再宿幾晚～

We had a wonderful stay at this place. The staff was amazing and the place was super clean. We were on a bikepacking trip and they even allowed us to bring our bikes into the room, which was very convenient. The Nepalese chef deserves special mention for preparing amazing food for us. Overall, it was a truly amazing experience and we highly recommend this place to anyone looking for comfortable and enjoyable accommodation.

建物は古いですが寝るだけ、なら十分です！ 大浴場も綺麗だったし、無料の朝食も十分でした！ コーヒー、お水もあって、ひといきつくのに良かったです！

Such a lovely hostel to stay. The owner is very friendly. If you’re looking for a place that offers nature and rest, only 10 minutes away from Kyoto station. This is your place

店主さんがとても優しくよい場所でした。 夕朝食は鮎や虹鱒など琵琶湖で獲れたお魚をたくさん食べることができて満足です。地元の美味しい日本酒もいただきました。 布団は柔らかくぐっすり寝ることができました。 水回りは共同ですが、清潔感があります。 アクセスは駅から10分以内に歩けるので問題ないですが、周辺にコンビニなどはないので、事前に買っておくことをおすすめすます。

The house is great, really well kept and in original japanese style. It's very cold tough, it was snowing outside and the temperature inside wasn't higher than 5°. Heating is in the room, with a small gasoline heater, which was causing smell if used for long.
