HIKONE CASTLE RESORT & SPA is located in front of the middle moat of Hikone Castle, a national treasure. Guests of this hotel can enjoy the castle resort feeling.

The great location of this hotel provides the guests with the view of the keep of Hikone Castle in front of their rooms and enjoy the time of premium and comfortable travel while seeing various changing views of Hikone Castle that reflect the passing of time and seasons.

The Fujitec elevators installed at the time of the original completion of this castle have been upgraded to improve safety and functionality. The upgraded elevators have no machine room above the hoistway and are designed with simple but functional specifications that match the atmosphere created by this hotel.

Through the application of upgrading work, the elevators have been renewed with the touchless "AirTap" buttons, the In-Car Crowd-Level Indicators that display the crowd level of the approaching elevator on the landing floor and functional LED indicators for wheelchair users.
