Great Service”

Makes you feel at home location acceptable, but no public transports thus needs to walk to train station the view from my room is block by a water tank, this is the only disapointment as we were there for only one nite and not have the chance to see full view. Hotel was fully booked and not allowed to change. For this price we pay, we are not satisfied. But the service is excellent.

I would click for more stars if there is such an option! ”

This was surely one of the best hotel experience during my 9~day stay in Japan. People say that Japanese style hotels are often old and not so clean but this is surely very clean and everything is very well organized. Its quiet and situated very close to the lake. The food was absolutely fantastic and staff members were super nice. The onsen facilities were great too. The whole experience was absolutely wonderful. My whole family loved it a lot!
