“Hotel Sunroute Hikone's strongest suit is its location a stone's throw from the station, an absolute boon after a long journey, and the free bike rentals are a thoughtful touch for exploring Hikone Castle and beyond. Though rooms lean towards the compact side, the hotel's charm lies in its efficient service and that irresistible gift shop stocked with local cat-themed souvenirs. It's a solid choice for both solo travelers and those on vacation, especially when you snag a room booked in advance.”
