- That the desk is staffed when you land, and that the room is held past cut-off.
- Whether there is room for a pickup, a trailer or a van, not just a car.
- Whether the rate moves for your dates, and what it includes.
- What the property actually charges at the desk on top of the rate.

Payment
Paid at the time of booking, not at the desk. The property may still take a card at check-in for incidentals — that is their own policy and separate from what you pay us.
The fine print
Children aged 0-6 years can stay free of charge. Children can stay in the room for an additional fee of 2,200 JPY even if they do not require an extra bed, up to the same number as the adults staying in the room. Guests who require children's cots must make a reservation in advance. A limited number of cots are available, and availability is not guaranteed. Contact details can be found on the booking confirmation. Children staying in existing beds who want to eat breakfast must make a reservation in advance. Fees apply. Contact details can be found on the booking confirmation. Guests with tattoos may not be permitted to use the property’s public bathing areas or other facilities where the tattoos might be visible to other guests. Swimming pool: Closed from Thu, Oct 1, 2026 until Wed, Jun 30, 2027 A deposit may be required at the property.
Questions about Biwako Hotel
What time is check-in and check-out at Biwako Hotel?
Check-in is from 03:00 PM. Check-out is by 11:00 AM. If you're arriving late, tell us and we'll ask the property to hold the room.
Is there parking at Biwako Hotel?
Parking is listed among the property's facilities. Whether it's free and whether a space can be reserved varies, so we check it against your dates rather than promise it here.
Does Biwako Hotel have a pool?
Yes — a pool is listed among the property's facilities. Seasonal closures are common, so we'll confirm it's open for your dates.
Does Biwako Hotel have Wi-Fi?
Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.
Can I book a block of rooms at Biwako Hotel?
The property lists meeting and banquet space, which usually means it handles group business — but how many rooms it will hold at once, for how long, and at what rate are set case by case and are not in any feed. Tell us the dates and the number of rooms and we'll get those terms from the property in writing before anything is charged.
Does Biwako Hotel have wheelchair accessible rooms?
The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.
Can I check in late at Biwako Hotel?
The property lists a front desk staffed 24 hours, so a late arrival should be possible. Standard check-in is from 03:00 PM. Rooms are still released after a cut-off at some properties regardless of the desk hours, so tell us your arrival time and we'll have them hold it.
How do I book Biwako Hotel?
Put your dates in above and book online. Rates are live from the property and include taxes and fees we can read; anything we can't price, we say so rather than guess.

Nothing to do with the booking above. The same market, priced the same way, for if this one is not it.
