Apa Hotel Biwako Seta Ekimae

Staff was very helpful friendly.

Breakfast was plentiful and varied so suit all tastes. Staff were friendly and helpful. Toiletries given and good quality. Clean md perfect location near the station.

Nice hotel with very helpful staff.

Enjoyed small friendly restaurants around the hotel. You can go to Kyoto using public transportation easily.

Good place

Staff was very friendly and the room was quite clean. My only wish is that the Air Conditioning was a bit stronger. I am from the North and used to brutal winters. We like it cold.

The room was spacious and clean. The staff was friendly and helpful and held our bags since we arrived in Kyoto before check in time. The hotel was conveniently located near a train station and several convenience stores. Only complaint was that the bathroom was on a steep step that was not labeled. My friend and I stumbled on it a couple times before getting used to it.

Friendly staff. Spacious room. Extremely convenient location.

It was good people abit quit but good

Perfectly on a train line surrounded by amenities and shops that suit all needs, the hotel is lovely and would recommend, likely too return in future

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.

rooms were nice and had good options for controlling lights etc - great bathroom in particular - but a little disappointed by lack of amenities and things like basic toiletries... still rate it and these are minor inconveniences

Staff were super friendly and amnesties nearby. Room was also great.

I’ve stayed here countless times and usually it’s a great experience but this time was quite the exception. The staff at check-in (first time seeing this staff) was quite…rude or unfriendly for lack of a better word. No greeting upon check in (after saying checking in and giving my name), I hand my residence card (didn’t ask if it’s ok to make a copy like usual), the room was for two guests (one key this time), and didn’t even tell me the room number (just handed me the slip of paper). Room was clean but quite low water pressure, but the first time experiencing this as well, so perhaps just an older room.

I’ve stayed at another APA hotel in Kyoto. The staff and rooms are always a wonderful accommodation with friendly staff, clean rooms and great amenities. They’re always gonna be a choice of mines.

Typical APA hotel efficient and cost effective. Only gripe is the pillows which are small and hard.

conveniently located near to SETA station, 2 X 24hr convenient right beside the hotel, with several restaurant nearby, including 1 of the best Takoyaki i ever had! Newly renovated.

Quick trip to Kyoto Station, Lake Biwa and surrounded attractions.

APA HOTEL〈BIWAKO SETA-EKIMAE〉had great staff, some of which spoke English. The WIFI worked well, and the rooms were clean. The hotel is next to Seta station, it is also close to shopping and restaurants.

The APA hotel was undergoing construction when I stayed, and you couldn’t notice. The rooms were clean, and comfortable. The WIFI works well and is available in all the rooms. The staff spoke English and were very nice.
