  • A clean, well-equipped Hotel with panoramic views of Lake Biwa

    It was a Hotel with an outstanding view and location overlooking Lake Biwa.We made a Reservation for two twin Rooms for our family, and they even connected the two Rooms internally—service beyond what we expected.Although there are limited hours of use, the panoramic bath on the 7th floor was also great.The Room was spacious, clean, and comfortable, and we had a very pleasant stay.

  • Everything was perfect.

    It was my first trip to Shiga, and everything was perfect. The view from the Hotel and the Room were amazing. In one (or two) words: "Comfortable" and "Impressive." Thank you so much for your hospitality.
