Otsu Hotel & Travel Guide\n
If you're taking a vacation in Kinki and are on the lookout for Otsu establishments, Travelocity has an extensive array to browse. Travelocity's up-to-date hotel guide includes 22 accommodation options located within a 6-mile (10-kilometer) distance of central Otsu.
People watch within walking distance of the center of Otsu. Hotels in the district include Biwako Ryokusuitei and Biwako Grand Hotel.
The Reiah Hotel Otsu Ishiyama, Hotel Tetora Otsu Kyoto and Guesthouse AN could be useful choices for those seeking budget hotel accommodation.
The Hiiragiya Ryokan can be found 10 miles (16 kilometers) from the middle of Otsu. Another accommodation option is the Ryokan Yoshida-sanso, which is about 8 miles (14 kilometers) away. Some other alternatives in the vicinity include the Ishibekoji Ryugin and the Traditional Kyoto Inn serving Kyoto cuisine IZUYASU.
Would you like to venture a little bit out of the center? Kinki boasts a number of attractions worth checking out. Kinki is home to beaches, lakes, mountains and cliffs. Commonly visited vacation sites include ruins, castles and traditional villages. Wise travelers in this pocket of Japan will enjoy mountain biking.
Osaka is 35 miles (57 kilometers) to the southwest of Otsu and is home to Osaka Science Museum and Osaka Castle.
