The hotel offers stunning views of Biwako, but the rooms have a stale smoke smell and look dated. The lack of complimentary coffee/tea in the rooms is a downside.

The hotel was awesome and met our expectations. The rooms were huge and beautiful, but not having even a basic coffee/tea setup was a little disappointing. The service was very attentive and helpful. The location is fantastic with beautiful views across Lake Biwa. The dining experience was great, although a bit expensive. Overall, a truly picturesque setting for a memorable stay.

The hotel offers a fantastic view and a clean, tidy room that was really comfortable and relaxing. While the rooms were not quite as polished, having two complimentary water bottles was a nice touch. The service was overall attentive and friendly, though there were some lapses in allergen information. The convenient location, with a lovely park nearby, made for a pleasant stay despite the limited nearby shops. Dining was excellent, but slightly pricey, with a beautiful food and lake view at the restaurant. The property offers great facilities, including dry cleaning, housekeeping, and a free shuttle service.

Staying at this hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms, especially those located at the end of the hallway, were spacious and offered good value for the price, but it was disappointing not to have basic amenities like water or tea provided. The service, while staff were apologetic and tried to make up for it, fell short due to a lack of enhanced cleaning measures given the current situation. The location, right along the promenade to Lake Biwa, offered stunning views but was a bit further away from the main station. The dining options, including a banquet hall serving delicious food and beverages, were great but missed out on providing certain breakfast choices. The facilities overall were decent, however lacking in some basic offerings.

I had a fantastic stay at the hotel. The room was spacious, comfortable, and offered a great view, although it was lacking some basic amenities like water and tea. The service was mixed, with some staff members being very polite and friendly, while others seemed more focused on accommodating tour groups. The location was excellent for exploring Kyoto, close to a supermarket and Otsu Station. The dining experience was just okay, with decent quality but nothing special. Overall, a good value for the money with some room for improvement in service and amenities.

The hotel has spacious rooms in Japan but required getting 2 rooms for a family of 4, making it pricier. The whole floor carpet made the rooms feel a bit stuffy at times. The service was very helpful and kind but lacked clarity on allergens, despite apologizing. The location is amazing with beautiful views of Lake Biwa, but the property seems separated from the main building. The dining experience was great with stunning views, although it felt crowded with tour groups at times.
