Toyoko Inn Hikone Station Higashi
My favorite hotel from my trip with a great breakfast to go with! Amazing room with a nice walkable area outside and very close to the train station. Would stay again!

Hotel Sunroute Hikone
It was comfortable for a solo trip and I slept well for a hotel. I got lucky getting a corner room since you can hear people through the walls when walking down the hall. What bothered me the most was the bath towel having brown stains.

Comfort Hotel Hikone
Close proximity to the train station was a key feature in choosing this hotel. We stayed on the side opposite the tracks and didn't hear any train noise. Rooms are small and minimalist but clean, staff were friendly, breakfast was really quite good.
