On this page, I’m showing you information about the coin-operated lockers at Hikone Station.
There were no places where luggage storage is available.
Coin Lockers at Hikone Station
There are three coin-operated lockers at Hikone Station.
There are many of them, so it is easy to leave a deposit.
Availability was good when I checked during lunchtime on a weekday.
Leave your luggage at the coin lockers before going to Hikone Castle.
Hikone Castle is not far from the station, but it is easier and less tiring to walk if you are light.
