As I mentioned in my previous review, the surroundings are serene with nothing but tranquility. While soaking in the open-air bath, all you can hear is the sound of waves—a truly relaxing accommodation that my wife loved so much we decided to stay again. With only a few rooms av

Everything was excellent—no complaints at all. It was a truly memorable Hotel. The food in particular was outstanding; it may have been the best of any place we’ve stayed so far. Not only was it delicious, but the portions were generous—we’re big eaters, and even we left completely full. The Room was also wonderful, with a lovely view of Lake Biwa. Simply the best. To prove it, as soon as we got home we made another Reservation for the crab course—it's six months away, but we’re already excited to enjoy your料理 again. Thank you in advance, and we look forward to our next stay.

I would love to learn how such exceptional service is achieved. The service was flawless overall; personally, I was deeply impressed by the chef's handmade soy sauce, pickles, and sansho chirimen (the crab dishes were outstanding as well). The attention to detail in every aspe

This was the perfect accommodation, thoughtfully designed for guests to relax and enjoy their stay. We stayed in a detached room with a private bath, and everything about the room—its spaciousness, cleanliness, view, and amenities—was exceptional. For those who find it uncomf

it was a blissful one-night stay. Both dinner and breakfast were satisfying in both portion size and taste. The Tango Koshihikari rice was delicious!! Everyone on the Accommodation staff was genuinely friendly, and I was able to spend my time feeling very relaxed. I even got mist

The meals were meticulously prepared and served with a warm touch that didn’t feel overly formal. The room with a semi-open-air bath was fantastic, allowing us to fully enjoy Onsen without needing to visit the large public bath. It truly felt like an unforgettable experience

This was our first time staying here, and we were very well taken care of. From the warm welcome upon arrival, we were served tea and delicious sweets before being shown to our Room. The guest Room had a clean, modern Japanese style, and we were truly impressed by the wonderful view of the sea from anywhere in the Room—even from the bath. In addition, the Onsen bath had silky, slightly thick water that felt great and left our skin smooth; we enjoyed it many times and were completely satisfied. Both dinner and breakfast were more than enough in quantity, and every dish was delicious. We initially thought the dining area seating might be close together, but it wasn’t at all; we enjoyed chatting while listening to explanations about the dishes from the proprietress and staff. We had been looking for an Accommodation where we could simply relax, enjoy great food, and soak in good hot water—and this was a wonderful Accommodation where we could truly take our time. We’re happy to have found an Accommodation that makes us think, “We definitely want to come again in a different season.”

Perhaps because I enjoyed breathtaking sunsets during my previous visits, but even the gray sea and sky viewed from Aoi had their own unique charm and were mesmerizing. The room and meals were impeccable as always. Thank you for accommodating my allergies and food preferences ea

The Taiza crab we were most looking forward to was served in our preferred style and at our own pace, allowing us to fully enjoy it. The other fish dishes besides crab were also incredibly delicious—the meals were outstanding. The shuttle service to the station was very helpful

Overall, we were very satisfied! The dinner was excellent as well as breakfast; there was plenty of food served in the morning too—the simmered blackthroat seaperch stood out as especially delicious. When sleeping at night with all lights off, only the blue light from the air co

I was worried about staying in a container, but it was truly clean, and I could relax without worrying about the neighboring Room—it exceeded my expectations. The food was delicious, and the hot water was excellent. I’ll be back again. Thank you very much.

We stayed as a family and were comfortable throughout our entire visit! The building feels a bit traditional, but the inside is bright, and we could sense thoughtful attention to detail everywhere, which made it very relaxing. All the staff were pleasant, and the Accommodation wa

The staff provided excellent service from start to finish, offering the highest level of hospitality. Thank you very much. Dinner featured fresh seafood, and the hot pot was rich in flavor, allowing us to fully enjoy the essence of Kyoto cuisine. The shirasu rice cooked in a

The view was amazing and very relaxing (the rooftop view is also great). The staff were courteous, and we felt comfortable staying there. At check-in, we also saw guests with dogs, and it made us think this Hotel probably has many repeat guests as a pet-friendly Hotel (they even

Both dinner and breakfast offered a wide variety of delicious options, with everything replenished promptly without running out, leaving us truly satisfied. The bath was clean and pleasant, providing great satisfaction. The staff's service was excellent, and we look forward to vi

The private bath in the Room is spacious and includes a washing area, making it truly exceptional. The meals were also delicious, as expected from a Ryokan specializing in cuisine. If I may add one suggestion, it would have been even better if laundry facilities were available ye

This was my first visit, and the food was delicious. I also appreciated being able to take home the crab I couldn’t finish. The Onsen water felt wonderfully smooth, and we were very satisfied to have it reserved for our family’s private use. The location was also great—right by the sea, with a beautiful sunset—and it made me want to visit even in a season other than crab season. I’d love to come back again next year.

Winter crab, early-summer white squid, and the salt-kiln-grilled abalone we always request as an optional add-on. At Waraku, you can enjoy seasonal delicacies throughout the year, but this time we tried their limited-time wild tiger pufferfish course for the first time, available only around Golden Week. We were truly impressed by the depth of Yuhigaura’s seafood. The beautifully presented sashimi platter (tessa) had a pleasantly chewy texture and was so delicious it ranks No. 1 among all the meals we’ve had at accommodations! The grilled milt was also exceptionally large, plump, and rich—perfect with Waraku’s own-label Junmai Daiginjo sake. And in this season especially, the private garden by the detached guest room feels at its most beautiful, with blooming flowers and vivid green moss. Whenever we’re worn out from everyday life and want to relax and feel restored, we always visit Waraku to Clear our minds.

We also enjoyed complimentary ice cream after our bath. Breakfast was luxurious and delicious—I ended up eating too much (haha). The warm hospitality and thoughtful service from the friendly proprietress were wonderful. Thank you very much! We look forward to visiting again
