"Relaxing and unique “trad Japanese” experience"

10.0

The place is peaceful and quiet, with great staff and service. The onsen is spacious and, depending on the time of day, empty or almost empty. The ryokan breakfasts and dinners are definitely an experience. It was a bit too much for us (I have a feeling people use this place more like a resort rather than as a base for trips to Kyoto and neighboring towns). The shuttle to and from the train station was a super nice touch.

If I could have two things different, it would be: - blackout curtains (the current ones were quite translucent) - option to choose a smaller one-shot meals, rather than full blown 10-meal menu that takes an hour or two to go through

"節目の家族旅行は満足‼️"

10.0

和室2部屋取りました。5人と2人にしてほしいと言うと5人の部屋は少し大きめな部屋になっていました。 近江牛の夕食は足りないかなと心配していましたが、 豪華でした。朝ごはんも別の部屋で食べることになっていてとても豪華でした。

大浴場、女性、夜がぬるめでした。私は熱めのお風呂が好きなので。

"I would recommend this experience for anyone wanting to relax and recharge and to get a glimpse into this Japanese exper"

10.0

This was a true cultural experience for us. The staff were so welcoming and polite and could do enough for us. The facilities were great and we just relaxed and recharged here for two nights. The food was incredible each night offering us something special in a different dining area experience. The view over the lake and watching the eagles soar above was mesmerising.

There wasn’t much to do near by but really that wasn’t a problem as we were happy to just stay in the hotel and use the facilities.

在房間看著琵琶湖,享受寧靜的美好,真想多住個幾天

booking網站訂的一泊二食,三歲孩童不佔床好像不收費,但也因此沒有提供浴衣,是後來要吃晚餐問了服務人員才知道要加錢,若入住時能主動詢問會覺得更為貼心
