Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort

Very nice

Overall we loved our room, it was very large and very comfortable, the blinds in the bathroom was very dusty, in despite of the amazing view from any rooms, the breakfast was excellent, most items were top notch, the location near Kyoto, with a car parking easy to access and convenient, the view on the lake was very Zen. Definitely recommend the higher floors room totally worth it.

The food choices were fantastic, and the bed was so comfortable that we felt completely relaxed. We truly enjoyed everything and look forward to returning again.”

What a view!

It’s a beautiful hotel, lakeside with an amazing view. The room was spacious with all the amenities we needed. All the staff was helpful, friendly and professional. The breakfast was yummy with a wide selection. They seemed to be understaffed at breakfast for the volume of guests which created waiting to get in for breakfast.

A very traditional Japanese hotel. The hotel room smells badly, in particular the carpet. Great view and convenient location.

A great hotel, nice big rooms. Took us a day to discover there was a shuttle bus to and from Otsu Station, but when utilised it was easier, as it's a 20 minute walk to Zeze Station (closest JR station). Was disappointed to hear there was no laundry facility for guests.

Great value. We probably visited during the off peak season as the entire area was quiet. The hotel is conveniently located by the lake with a supermarket just down the street and a shuttle bus which brings guests to and from Otsu station. Rioms were clean and we got upgraded to a bigger room which was good for our family. View from the room was great too!
