Summary of reviews

Guests say
Overall, guests appreciated the cleanliness of the hotel, the friendly staff, and the beautiful views of Lake Biwa. Many enjoyed the spacious rooms and amenities like the pool and onsen. However, some guests found the breakfast options limited and the restaurant prices high. The location was also noted to be somewhat isolated with few dining options nearby.
