Hotels near Zeze Ware Museum

"We got a double bed and it was spacious, paid breakfast was worth it and from 2100-2300hrs, there was free ramen and ice cream. The hot springs were segregated between men and women, there’s also full body massage chairs. Everybody was helpful and transportation / konbini was walking distance as well from the Shinkansen / JR line. Would recommend to anybody looking to explore these options / visiting Kyoto. "

"Super convenient, one block from the Shinkansen entrance to Kyoto station. Relatively new. Clean rooms, pleasant staff. There is a convenience store just around the corner. Choose an outside room, as there are some inside rooms that have no view."

"I’ve been to many capsules across Japan and my stay here was at the too. Yes, I’ve stayed in Kyoto, Osaka, but wanted to spend a few days in Ōtsu and experience a slower pace and so glad I did! The reviews on Google and Orbitz rated The Calendar high so I gave it a try and I was not disappointed. However, I do need to mention if you are sensitive to smell you might notice the slight scent of smoke. The entire capsule is non-smoking, however there is a smoking room, that when smokers return it might linger with them. To me, I only noticed the first hour at check-in and after that I didn’t notice anything. The good? How about everything else! No elevator so if you have two luggage you might need to make two trips, but the steps you are greeted by a very popular Italian restaurant which is part of the hotel. The staff is friendly, professional and will make your stay pleasant. The bed is somewhat on the thin side and pillow non-existent, but overall I had no issues falling asleep. In your capsule you do have a TV but good luck finding anything with subtitles lol. The bathrooms and showers are modern and clean, The common area very spacious and relaxed. The bonus is it’s at the entrance/exit of the JR train station! Biwa Lake a 10-minute walk away. So if in Ōtsu looking to get away from the crowds I highly suggest a stay at The Calendar. I stayed for two nights and felt recharged going back to Osaka. 10-stars! Arigatō! "

"Our room was larger than our other Japanese hotel experiences. It was clean and so close to the station that it is impossible to miss. Convenient grocery and take away options nearby, as well as restaurants. I was visiting family in Ishiyama, one JR stop away, which was very convenient. "

"This is my fifth time staying at the Westin Miyako. The location is superb for seeing temples on the west side of Kyoto, and it’s always easy to get around, either via their free shuttle bus to Kyoto Station, or by nearby public transit with a few blocks’ walk. The staff offers world class hospitality. I could not have asked for a better stay. "

"We were upgraded to a beautiful suite with views of Lake Biwa. The shuttle bus to the train station is very convenient. Otsu is a beautiful city and we plan to return for a longer time. "

"Adult only hotel means a love hotel, didn’t know upon booking but rocked up and realised. Wasn’t too bad for the price but would prefer if the room was cleaned daily and if staff made more effort to engage with guests. "

"Excellent hotel with very attentive staff, although the dining options were quite expensive. Some vegan options would have been perfect! Beautiful views of Lake Biwa from our room, and loved the hotel shuttle bus to and from Otsu station. Thanks!"

"Breakfast buffet had allergy signs making it easy to stay away from certain foods. Thank you"
