Ikeno Hotels, Ikeda

"5 star hotel. Lovely"

"Traditional and unique "

"If you've stayed in one Tokoyo Inn, you've pretty much stayed in them all. This one hasn't seen some of the upgrades that busier locations have, but it's very clean and practically inside the train station."

"What a fun little hotel, it’s not every stay you have a sauna in your room. The staff were super friendly - especially as there was initially an error with check in. They offer a happy hour of free drinks and the bar staff joined us for a game of cards whilst it was quiet. The area isn’t super ‘tourist friendly’ but when you’re in your room you won’t care. "

"good place"

"Great place"

"Excellent."

"parking is difficult"

"Overall it is really an excellent hotel. Many of the rooms should be updated, but still they are adequate and spacious. The breakfast area can be busy, but there is a large adjacent room with plenty of space. The hotel staff were great. The onsen has a spacious indoor bath and plenty of washing areas. The outdoor bath is very pleasant, just be careful walking on the stone surfaces. The staff takes good care of the onsen and sauna. The location is good. You can walk to Nagahama JR station and the old town area is just beyond. The lake and the large beautiful next door park and castle is good for walking. There are not many restaurants open at night in central Nagahama, but you can probably find something."
