I recently had the pleasure of staying at this excellent hotel, and I must say it exceeded all my expectations. From the moment I arrived, the staff greeted me with warm smiles and made me feel right at home. Their exceptional hospitality truly enhanced my overall experience.

Every dish was meticulously prepared, bursting with flavors that tantalized my taste buds. The chefs showcased their expertise by creating a diverse menu that catered to various palates. Whether it was the succulent grilled meats, the fresh seafood, or the delectable vegetarian options, each plate was a work of art.
The dinner experience was truly memorable, with an elegant ambiance and attentive service that added to the overall charm. The restaurant staff were knowledgeable, providing insightful recommendations and ensuring that every detail of my dining experience was taken care of. Their professionalism and passion for culinary excellence were evident in every interaction.
The breakfast spread was equally impressive, offering a wide array of options to suit all preferences. From a sumptuous continental selection to a delightful assortment of local delicacies, there was something to satisfy every craving. I particularly enjoyed the freshly baked pastries and the made-to-order omelettes. The quality and freshness of the ingredients used were top-notch, leaving me energized and ready to start my day.
In addition to the exceptional dining experience, the hotel itself was a haven of comfort and tranquility. The rooms were elegantly furnished, providing a cozy retreat after a long day of exploring the city.

From my perspective, there wasn't much to do within a mile walk of the property.
Only one restaurant off site in that mile two convenience stores and if you walk a bit further a pretty mellow "redlight" district

Otsu Town seems not beautiful at first sigh.
Otsu Town seems not beautiful at first sigh. But go to have a walk behind the hotel. The countryside is like a Miyazaki movie getting real ! You can go near from there : temples, beach, ski station with incredible view… But with the hotel’s shuttle and the station you have Kyoto, very near, Nara, Osaka a little farther. You’ve got all Kansaï by JR… A good tip : when you go to the station to Shirahige shrine, don’t take bus but walk with GPS. The way is just incredible with village, other shrines so quiet and monkey looking at you from the forest behind rice fields…

Otsu, located near Kyoto, is another treasure place in Japan. Faced to Biwa lake it has many historical monument and cultural hotspots. In summer the big firework event is so famous to attract many people. In Biwako Hall many world class concerts and plays are performed. Local fishes and sakes are another charm for visitors. Once you come here you cannot help missing this unforgettable city.

At first I thought I might be bored but there’s so much to do! It’s a little difficult to travel from place to place; lots of walking. But there’s lots of history, friendly people, and beautiful nature.

Otsu is a great location to get away from the city life of Japan. It is quite peaceful here and is located next to a large lake (lake biwa) which is perfect for fishing enthusiasts. Overall, this location is clean and quiet, different from the bustling cities of Japan and i would recommend this place to those who enjoy a scenic walk and a calm environment.

Beautiful spot near the lake.
Beautiful spot near the lake. Perfect for those that want to stay a little out of the hustle and bussle, in perhaps a bigger / better value for money hotel, but still within close proximity to Kyoto.
Staff were very friendly and kept my bag for me while I went traveling around the city. They even upgraded my room to a twin (which has never happened to me before) so I got to enjoy a larger room. Beds were comfy, complimentary water was provided. Even the VOD was free (this is usually a paid service, so was a nice surprise). Hotel is also located a stone's throw away from the local station, and has a convenience store right next door.
it’s a hotel for relaxing in the 4 shared Onsens are fantastic 2 indoor and 2 outdoor. Food was amazing on the hotel if a little expensive
Good size room
Basement has a Pool Table and Table Tennis table which hadn’t played in years
The view from the roof top Onsen at night is just as per the photograph -awesome
The hotel staff assisted me to find back my AirPod lost in the room, and delivered to my Tokyo hotel. Truly appreciated . And thanks for the help.
There’s free shuttle bus take you to nearby railway station, kind of convenient instead of by walking.
The lake view is awesome!
The place was incredibly peaceful. It's situated near Bodai Temple, and in the morning, I accompanied some people in their worship rituals at the temple. Experiencing this Japanese-style garden worship was truly a new and enriching experience for me.
The onsens of the hotel next door that we were allowed to use were amazing
Dinner & breakfast japanese style, were delicious & very authentic
I liked the japanese style rooms and details such as yukatas provided by the hotel
We loved the bath on our balcony and the traditional Japanese style room. There was a lovely garden and terrace and the staff were very welcoming. The buffet breakfast was a wonderful way to finish our stay.
Exceptional hospitality from hotel staff; private room for dinner was a plus. Room was roomy, warm and comfortable. Onsen was alright. Lovely view of Lake Biwa from the room; great sunrise in the morning.
Everything. Japanese design, a combination of modern and old design. Good size room with all amenities. Great staff and welcome. Only 15 minutes by train from Kyoto.
