รีวิวและความประทับใจจากผู้เข้าพักที่ Oku Biwako Makino Grand Park Hotel

The facility is old but well-maintained and clean.

We stayed at the accommodation for lake swimming. The hotel is located right in front of the lakeside beach, so you can go out in your swimsuit directly from your room. Large tents with chairs and tables are available for rent to guests at 1,000 yen, but we used the free reclining chairs on the wooden deck instead. It was comfortable under the shade of large trees. Unfortunately, only cold water was available in the outdoor shower. Since it was mentioned that there is no large public bath, we opted for a family room with a private household-style bath instead of a unit bath room, which turned out to be spacious and pleasant. The room had large windows but no balcony (swimsuits can be dried in the bathroom). Yukata robes and disposable slippers were provided; however, they could not be worn outside of the room. Although the building felt old, it was well-maintained and clean. For meals, we chose buffet-style dining for both breakfast and dinner as most guests seemed to do so as well—it wasn’t overly crowded. The buffet selection felt somewhat limited; desserts especially were disappointing: sticky warabi mochi, thick yet soggy cream puff shells, dry chocolate brownies, and canned fruits could use improvement. On a positive note, there were decent options overall—stewed dishes were delicious—and items were replenished promptly when they ran out. Overall, this accommodation left us feeling that we would like to stay here again during lake swimming season!
