guest house AN is a 5-minute walk from Keihan Nakanosho Train Station and a 20-minute walk and train ride from JR Kyoto Station. This Japanese-style house comes with tatami (woven-straw) floors, 2 connecting bedrooms and a kitchen. You can relax at the café located next to the house. Rental bicycles are available.

Shuji and his wife are very friendly and hospitable. Though the 90-minute check-in procedure is a bit lengthy but Shuji does it so both of you and him can have a good experience. Once you check in, you’re pretty much left to your own device. Would come back to AN if I visit Otsu again.
