"Great to just slow down and relax"

10.0

We stayed here for one night to decompress and rest mid our trip. The staff was super polite and going above and beyond. The highlight was definitely the food (both dinner and breakfast were delicious) and the private onsen in the room overlooking the lake. Our room was extra spacious. The yukatas provided were fun and a nice touch. We also used the shuttle service to the train station which was extremely convenient.

"Excellent Stay, But a Disappointing Checkout Experience"

8.0

Overall, our stay at Yumotokan was enjoyable, and the hotel delivers a strong traditional Japanese ryokan experience. While the property is somewhat dated, it is well maintained and still offers a comfortable and authentic atmosphere. The room was spacious, and the in-room bath was outstanding — definitely one of the highlights of the stay. The special kaiseki dinner was beautifully presented and delicious, with the Omi beef being exceptionally tender and memorable. The hotel also arranged small activities such as bingo, which added a nice touch to the experience. The service during check-in and throughout the stay was excellent. The staff were friendly, attentive, and made us feel welcomed. However, the experience during check-out was extremely disappointing and inconsistent with the standard expected from a hotel of this level. There was no assistance provided with luggage, and we had to carry everything ourselves. When we approached the staff for help, we were ignored and they chose to attend to other matters instead. For a hotel at this price point, such a drop in service is unacceptable. It felt as though once we checked out, we were no longer valued as guests. This significantly affected our overall impression of what was otherwise a good stay.

"いろんな露天風呂が楽しめる宿"

10.0

大きな施設です。 館内には池が施されロビーからエレベーターまでの順路はちょっとした美術館のようで落ち着いています。 使わせて頂いた部屋は、露天風呂付きのゆったりした贅沢ツインです。 部屋の入り口が1畳程の広さがあり大きなスーツケースの出し入れがスムーズでした。 板長さんのこだわりある和食は、とても優しいお味で旅の疲れが癒されました。 美しい和食器も楽しめました。 朝食のバイキングではその場で焼いてくださるオムレツを始め、温かい物は温かく冷たい物はちゃんと冷たく提供されスタッフさんの隅々まで行き渡る目配り気配りに感謝でした。 杖を使っていた母にワゴンを貸してくださったことには初めて受けたサービスだったので感動しました。

あえて言うならば部屋のドアが重たく感じたかなぁと。 開閉の際、高齢者には負荷があるようでした。
