Hotel Koo is such an amazing experience! I can't wait to be back. Traditional Japanese House ー renovated beautifully with quality modern elements. The wooden structure gives a very historical and warm vibe while the Scandinavian furniture and lights compliment the overall design of the space. I feel like I'm transported back to ancient Japan but with the comfort of technology. It is such an inspiring place, really perfect for digital artists/nomads! Other highlights of my stay: the unagi chazuke breakfast, the super kind and accommodating staff who will let you in on the best dining spots, the free tours by the hotel where you get to explore the ocal street market and other machiya in town, and the relaxing lounge with free coffee and snacks! At night, they serve alcohol too!

The room is very spacious, after opening 2 luggages on the floor, I can still walk around the room freely without worrying being tripped. The room is clean and quiet. The toilet, washing basin and bathing area are all separated. The lake view is simply marvellous. The breakfast (buffet) is fantastic, lots of varieties to choose from. There is a convenience store in the lobby. A supermarket can be found at the entrance of the hotel. There are 2 swimming pools, but they are not opened on the day of my stay. A nearby Aeon Mall is only a few minutes drive away.

    Enjoy the 1st day in Kyoto.

    Enjoy the 1st day in Kyoto. Do the Hop On Hop Off bus (both Blue and Red Lines), which stops at all the major sites. Then train to Otsu for relaxing stay at Lake Biwa. Go on a sightseeing / luncheon cruise or organised trips - example the cable car at Sakamoto. Plenty of places to eat including 36th floor of Lake Biwa Otsu Princess Hotel with great views.

    From my perspective, there wasn't much to do within a mile walk of the property. Only one restaurant off site in that mile two convenience stores and if you walk a bit further a pretty mellow "redlight" district

    Otsu Town seems not beautiful at first sigh.

    Otsu Town seems not beautiful at first sigh. But go to have a walk behind the hotel. The countryside is like a Miyazaki movie getting real ! You can go near from there : temples, beach, ski station with incredible view… But with the hotel’s shuttle and the station you have Kyoto, very near, Nara, Osaka a little farther. You’ve got all Kansaï by JR… A good tip : when you go to the station to Shirahige shrine, don’t take bus but walk with GPS. The way is just incredible with village, other shrines so quiet and monkey looking at you from the forest behind rice fields…

    Otsu, located near Kyoto, is another treasure place in Japan. Faced to Biwa lake it has many historical monument and cultural hotspots. In summer the big firework event is so famous to attract many people. In Biwako Hall many world class concerts and plays are performed. Local fishes and sakes are another charm for visitors. Once you come here you cannot help missing this unforgettable city.

    Inase Otsu Machiya was an exceptionally beautiful property, having breakfast in the communal tatami room is a highlight in itself. The Japanese-style family room we stayed in was very spacious and extremely comfortable. The staff were extremely kind and attentive, too. The communal bathing area was nicely arranged, too. For reference, most of the taxi drivers from Otsu station seem to know where Inase Otsu Machiya is, so you should have no issue arriving by foot or taxi (600-800 yen). Would I stay here again? Definitely!

    The breakfast was traditional Japanese style and very nice. One could tell the ingredients were very high quality. Perhaps not to everyone’s taste but for those who want the proper Japanese experience, this is perfect! Location is a bit tricky to get to if you’re on foot but they offer a very easy to use shuttle service to and from the local train station.

    10 minutes by cheap and frequent train from Kyoto. Not a touristy town. Hotel is close to a bank with an ATM that accepted my debit card, unlike convenience stores. Half a block from an enclosed shopping arcade with a supermarket. Excellent Japanese breakfast with different choices every day.
