    It was in the suburban location in the forests on the hills around. It was 1 km from Lakeport Fish & chips, offering quick-service food.

    Not a single issue.

    The room was a nice size here with a private outdoor bath. Location: the hotel was close enough to the bays and more place of interests to visit and the closest train station. Furthermore, to a festival nearby as well...

    The venue met expectations well, offering a suburban location that’s conveniently close to the train station and Kyoto. Guests can enjoy the scenic walking path around the lake and the stunning lakeshore. It’s also within walking distance of Mai Thai Cuisine, which is a lovely dining option.

    The room was a nice size and the views of the lake were astonishing! It had a Japanese interior. - the hotel was very close to Biwako Valley, the main attraction, and Sakamoto Railway. - Furthermore, very close to Ogotoonsen Station. I loved the spacious room with its stunning lake views, and the blend of Japanese design elements. the hotel's proximity to Biwako Valley, Sakamoto Railway, and Ogotoonsen Station made it a convenient choice for exploring the area.
