I stayed at the Chaya house which was absolutely stunning. The staff were incredibly friendly and a joy to speak with. Otsu is a smaller quiet town with lots of character and friendly residents. I highly recommend checking out the local Izakayas and cafes for an equally excellent experience.

Amazing stay!

An incredibly well designed hotel! It's modern and yet full of history of Otsu. Certainly a hidden gem. The staff is welcoming and helpful. Not to be missed is their guided tour by the hotel staff. We love hearing the stories and the neighbourhood eating places are simply amazing!! We'll surely come back again. Thanks for making our stay a truly memorable one.

We traveled to Otsu on a whim and chose Hotel Koo because we wanted to experience what it was like to stay in a traditional Japanese home. This did not disappoint- the accommodations we beautiful, serene and unusual. The town of Otsu is very quiet, but the people are amazing and the walkability down to Lake Biwa is great.

Nestled in elegance and exquisite machiya design seamlessly merges modern aesthetics with timeless charm. Each machiya is adorned with Nordic furniture, from plush sofas to meticulously crafted tables; each element is chosen with a discerning eye for design, promising a stay that transcends accommodation to a realm of refined taste and comfort. Thank you for the insightful tour and for sharing the history of the town; it added a delightful layer to our overall experience.

施設は清潔で、ホテルに戻った時、用意されている飲み物で寛ぐこともでき、大変心地よく過ごせました。 大津駅や琵琶湖にも徒歩圏内で、東海道に面していたり、かつての大津城下であったためか歴史的建造物もあり、ちょっとしたタイムトリップも楽しめました。

町屋をリノベした建物で、インテリアは北欧風？でお洒落。宿泊した茶屋は昔の東海道沿いのため車や通行する人の音がやや気になり、窓も開けにくいのが残念ですが、ラウンジが隣で便利でした。 次回はひとすじ奥まった一棟貸しのところに泊まってみたいです。
