5/5 Excellent

"Close to Potoncho Alley with access to many dining, shopping and activities. The hotel service and staff were great! Thoughtful amenities offered too. "

5/5 Excellent

"The room was comfortable, tasteful, taller ceiling, but could be a little dark at night. The mini refrigerator was convenient, but without a microwave it meant more drinks than actual food, unless it was already cold, like a dessert. Having a small table and chairs was a nice treat to sit down and eat in the room. The place was filled with more foreigners than locals. There is an app you can get to use the public washer and dryer for your clothes, but be aware everyone is trying to use it too. This was a nice choice to get to most of the shopping and tourist areas. If you wanted to wander further into normal neighborhoods with smaller mini marts, that wasn’t too far either. It was definitely a nice place to stay."

5/5 Excellent

"This was our first time staying in an onsen hotel. The property is loaded with amenities: an on-site hot and cold water onsen, a lounge with 24 hours of free drinks, a happy hour with wine included. Our room was gorgeous, with tatami mat floors and comfortable beds they set up. We had a glass wall shower and views of Lake Biwaka. My only criticism is that some of the furnishings seem a bit dated. But everything else was spectacular."

"The hotel was excellent in their services. I received complementary upgrade, and the room was spacious. Their breakfast was great; choice from the two set menu, which I chose Japanese set. Very authentic and delicious!"

"Our stay was very nice calmed and relaxed. The onsen was beautiful and very tidy. Unfortunately our room and designated bathroom had a very particular smell and the toilets smelled like urine :( but it didn’t ruin our stay. The host was very very helpful (a bit rushed at times but understandably as he runs the whole place). The food is delicious! You are served a traditional Japanese breakfast and dinner. The host offered a lift to the station twice, if this is the case for you don’t be late like us because being late is a disrespectful act in Japan! (We were 2 mins late, still not a nice thing to do!). Check out is a bit earlier than usual but it was ok, we were charged a hot spring tax per night at the end of the check out which is ok I just understood that was included in the payment (read the facility details) but apparently it was not, We didn’t mind. Overall we found it peaceful and quiet which was what we were looking for anyways."

"They offered free shuttle service to the nearest JR stations. Nice quiet area for a hot spring vacation. Breakfast and dinner were included in our package, and the food was fabulous and very authentic. It was my second time returning Yumotokan, and everything had been maintained up to standard or even better. Highly recommended!"
