"This property is high-end Japanese luxury with elegant yet simple/clean design - meant for a serene break from the noise & bustle of Kyoto, nestled in a lovely mountainous area. The room design is beautiful. The staff are so polite & attentive to all needs - the property manager is always present & a lovely gentleman- each time we would walk out of the property he would run out with water bottles in hand to make sure we carried hydration. We are seasoned travellers & never experienced this level of service. The evening dinners with set menus are Michelin star level dining experience with open wood oven watching the culinary preparations. Yes the dinner is a bit expensive but well worth it. All basic alcohol drinks are included. We did not try the special sauna experience but would suggest they include it in the daily cost of the hotel rather than extra. We are walkers/hikers - My only suggestions to the hotel is to create a walking map of areas near the hotel to walk & climb. 5 star experience would revisit again fir sure "

"Balcony was great and entire room was super clean, great staff as well. "

"Great modernised guest rooms and very friendly staff"

"Nice size and clean room. Balcony have a view of the lake, we had the onsen on the balcony which was a plus. There is a small weather proof tv if you are soaking. The staff are excellent."

"We had a very nice, large, twin bedroom facing Lake Biwa. The room had a couch seating area and was still large enough for us to comfortably keep to big suitcases open in the room and easily get around. Breakfast service was good, with a variety of Japanese and Western dishes available. We also used the Club Lounge in the afternoons for tea and in the evenings for drinks and canapés. The staff were excellent, very friendly and professional. The hotel provides shuttle bus service to & from Otsu station plus there is a local tram line within a 5 min walk. The Lake Biwa cruise boat dock is within easy walking distance. "

"Beautiful entranceway and grounds. The location is fantastic. The rooms were exactly what we needed. And the view! "

"Amazing experience from start to finish. An extremely authentic and comfortable stay with top notch food, impeccable service from the owners and their staff! An hour out from the city, but the bus ride is an incredibly scenic route once you’re out the bustling chaos. Would love, love, love to stay here again in the future! "
