The Waterhouse House was built by the Vories Partnership in 1913 and was the residence of PB Waterhouse an American who worked with WM Vories in evangelizing Christianity in Omihachiman City at the time and his family
Waterhouse met WM Vories who worked as a Christian evangelist based in Omihachiman City and was inspired by his personality and work so he cooperated with him In order to preserve the Waterhouse familys evangelistic activities as a historical record the building is now called the Waterhouse Memorial Hall
In June 2008 when the building had been damaged for about 100 years since its construction it was fully restored by the Omi Brotherhood Foundation and registered as a national tangible cultural property In 2023 an initiative was launched to maintain and preserve the building through its use as a lodging facility etc
The hotel is located by the lake, and you can take a free shuttle bus at the north exit of JR Station. You need to make an appointment in advance. The hotel management is in place and the staff is professional, warm and friendly. The room was clean and tidy, the equipment was slightly old, and the lake view outside the window was very charming. Dinner is a near Jiangniu banquet, the ingredients are fresh, rich and delicious, beyond my expectations. The breakfast is also great, with a wide variety of varieties, you can enjoy the lake scenery. The public hot spring bath in the hotel is not big, there is a sauna, I like it very much. In the evening, the guests sing collectively with the small band conductor. Stay away from the hustle and bustle of the city, relax and enjoy a warm and peaceful time here. Very recommended!
The environment is quiet, there is Lawson and a supermarket to buy raw fruits and vegetables nearby.  is very close to the attractions Bagua Palace and Baguabo. The facilities are complete, only one room has a wardrobe, I hope to add a hanger in another room.
The pin entering the house was wrong. Fortunately, we arrived in the afternoon and trip.com could help quickly. But the tablet in the house was broken, and I couldn't check in /out. I had to notify the hotel through trip.com. I hope the hotel can handle these contact facilities.
Very Good

Omihachiman & Azuchi 1 night 2 day We used it for a solo trip. It was シングル (スタンダード) and the room サイズ:17m2 ベッド width 135cm. Even if you have a big luggage, you can open and close in the room (see attached photo). Because ホテル is near the station, it is convenient for travelers in the sense of leaving your luggage and walking around Omihachiman. However, if you stay on the JR Biwako line side, the railway マニア can see the JR running in front of you. It may be fun, but if you don't, you may be worried about the sound of the freight train running in the middle of the night. (If you care about the sound, you may be better to stay in a room facing the north.) Breakfast is not eaten or eaten The room rate is the same, so the メニュー type is limited, but パン can be baked and パン It is recommended to be put in the stomach even a little. It was the first time to use コンフォートイン, but the goodness of the スタッフ correspondence remained impressive as it entered the top of the ビジネスホテル used in the past.
First of all, I feel it's very important to mention that the staff here were very helpful in handling a big problem I had with my booking app. I was very grateful for this assistance. There is a beautiful garden outside the lobby. The room had a great view of the town and Hachiman mountain, and was among the most spacious and comfortable I've had in Japan.
I stayed at 4/6. I was aiming for cherry blossoms in Kyoto, but the hotel fee in Kyoto city was too high and it has flowed to this point. I think it's cheap with 8600 yen including breakfast. It takes more than 30 minutes to Kyoto, but if you think about the price, it's nothing. Also, the disadvantage is that the large communal bath is a little small and the number of breakfast items is less than I thought, but I think it is acceptable for the price. It is harder to have an unexpectedly few places to eat dinner around the hotel. There are few shops themselves, and there are only chain stores nationwide.
I stayed for one night on weekdays while the cherry blossoms were blooming in April. I really wanted to stay in Kyoto City for sightseeing in Kyoto the next day, but it was a hotel that I found far away to Omihachiman city because the accommodation cost was unbelievable. It is one by train to Kyoto, so it is very convenient for sightseeing in Kyoto, and of course, you can also sightseeing in Omihachiman, so I think it is not a bad choice. It is the decisive choice of good word of mouth evaluation. It was a higher price setting than it looked, but I felt that the season was seasonal, so I couldn't do it. The next day was scheduled to check out early in the morning, so it is one of the reasons for the choice that I wanted to go as cheap as possible. It is a little far from the station, but it is not a distance that can't walk. Bus is also available. There is no convenience store nearby. Restaurants can be found if you walk a little. The hotel looks a bit old local business hotel. The appearance was a bit tired, and even if I entered, I was tired. However, a little different from the other, the response of the front desk attendant was very kind with a smile. It was the most kind response in recent years. This is raising the evaluation by 1 stage. The room was a single room, but the impression that the room was tired. The necessary facilities were available, but I felt like a hotel to secure a place to sleep rather than relax at the hotel. I didn't have a vinyl bag attached to the trash can, so I put the trash in a convenience store bag and dumped it. If the price is a little cheaper, I may use it next time.
Hotel location should be the biggest advantage, about five minutes walk from the river Basaka Station. The hotel staff is very professional and welcoming.
The hotel's breakfast is a traditional Japanese rice side dish, simple but the taste is quite satisfactory. Other aspects are standard business hotels, if you are on a business trip, you can choose.

QQQQQQQQQ27Water town, small town, very fresh and comfortable feeling, there are not many people, basically most locals ~ and some people are rowing here ~ It is also very good to see the cherry blossoms here ~ beef is delicious!
Himure Hachiman Shrine
雷雷小七The Nissan Li Yasaka Palace, I personally like this shrine very much. Kyoto took a tram for about half an hour. There are not many tourists but they have their own style. After watching the Yasaka dig, you can walk there. You can also take the cable car up the mountain, you can see the panoramic view of Wuhu and the entire style of the river Yasaka.
La Corina Omihachiman
ㄴㄴㄴㄴIt's a little difficult to get to by public transport, but we recommend going by car as there is free parking.
There are many products that can only be purchased at La Collina Omihachiman, and there is also a cafe on-site where you can eat Baumkuchen on the spot.
It's also surrounded by abundant nature!
Chomeiji Temple
还还不曾去过倒悬山!I heard that the red leaves here are beautiful! Red maple leaves! ! ! !
Oki Island
CColdouThe largest island in Wuhu, with residents on the island, basically living on fishing. It is said that seven people of Yuan's fallen martial arts fell to Chongdao in the 12th century when Yuanping competed for power, and their descendants were then reproduced on the island. It takes 10 minutes by boat from the port of Hoichi in Bagua City, near the river to Chongdao. Feel the houses, fishing boats, fishing gear of the fisherman's family life, walking in the mini version of Chongdao Elementary School, the island shrine, in addition to the fresh and strange, there is a little warm and broken sadness. In the Wuhu District, although Chongdao is not a must-pass stop, it will never disappoint you.
