We stayed here to celebrate a birthday. The sashimi came with daikon carved into a crane, and there was also sekihan (red rice). Everything looked beautiful and tasted great, leaving both our stomachs and hearts full. All of the staff were wonderful and very considerate, which made our time here truly enjoyable. Thank you very much.

I stayed here for one night on a trip with my parents as we headed to Mt. Hiei. The Room was spacious, and Lake Biwa was right in front of us—the morning view was amazing. There was also a large public bath, which was great for my elderly parents. I also thoroughly enjoyed the Onsen. Breakfast was buffet-style with a wide variety of options, satisfying both Japanese- and Western-food lovers. The front desk staff also recommended nearby restaurants for dinner, which was very helpful. My parents liked it very much as well, and said they would love to visit again if we have the chance.

I love this Hotel—being soothed by the familiar Japanese-style Room and the usual view of Lake Biwa. It was my first stay in two years, and various things had been simplified. Breakfast is very delicious, but there were so many guests that day that we were seated far away from the food. I think we waited over 20 minutes for the made-to-order omelet. Some foreign guests ended up leaving without waiting for their omelets. The smoothie, as always, was excellent. It was my first time seeing the planetarium, but I wondered if there were mites in the seats. After sitting for a while, both my spouse and I started itching on our arms and kept scratching. As with old movie theaters, I think pest control and insect prevention would be a good idea. As for the Room amenities, various items were provided in the washroom, but they were hard to see at a glance. This is one of my favorite Hotels, so I hope to see improvements in service going forward.
