A portable heater in the room made switch on and off clicking sound at night. They did provide an itemised receipt, after questioning about overcharging our massages, they said that because we booked our accommodation through a third party. They had not mentioned the surcharge when showing me their listed prices. ##### Vince Stayed 1 night in Jan 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Stevan, Melbourne 18 Nov 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort From the welcoming tea in your room to the friendliness and helpful staff, I would certainly recommend this hotel.

Every detail is looked after. Considered rearranging my trip to stay longer. It's a no-frills kinda place, but it's exceptional in its peace and beauty. I wish the pillows were more comfortable. And pay close attention to the driving instructions before arrival. Google maps will send you an impossible way on a walking path! Oh - and the traditional Japanese breakfast is gorgeous. ##### Thor ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sandy, Melbourne 31 Mar 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Authentic, peaceful with great service. Friendly, helpful staff and a nice clean room. A genuinely relaxing and unique place to unwind. Food was great too. ##### Sandy ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 12 Mar 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service #### Should have stayed at the Lakehouse An enjoyable night in an authentic Japanese style guest house. The massage was excellent and the food was authentic and tasty. The rooms were floored with genuine tatami but were very small and a little dated as was the dining area which was very sparse and basic. There is no TV or wifi (which does appeal at certain times) but this would become a bit dull after a few nights. It was relatively enjoyable but I am unlikely to return. ##### Verified traveller ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller 7 Mar 2016 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Internet makes the place look a whole lot nicer Arrived to the room not set up, air-not turned on to pre-arrival so room was stuffy, mouldy smell through out the room and just totally out dated for the money spent, have to say the facial that my partner received was the highlight, best she has ever had which was pleasing in the end. ##### Verified traveller ### 8/10 Good #### Patty, Melbourne 10 Feb 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### Traditional Japanese You sleep on a traditional Japanese bed like a futon on the floor. This won't work for people who have problems getting up off the floor because you have knee problems or you're older. It is very relaxing since there is no TV or wifi in the rooms. The Japanese breakfast is really good. ##### Patty ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 12 Jan 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort A very pleasant environment. Staff were responsive and thoughtful. ##### Verified traveller ### 10/10 Excellent #### John C. 9 Nov 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### Romantic getaway Fantastic accommodation which provided a relaxing ambience. I felt I was transported back into Japan. No wifi and technology which meant I could just catch up on my reading and meditate. Meditation music was provided in the room. The futon was comfortable. Made me want to buy one for my own place! The spa was also very good. The breakfast was great and the salmon was cooked to perfection. Overall, highly recommend this place if you want a romantic and relaxed getaway. ##### John C. ### 6/10 Okay #### Marie, Melbourne 4 Jul 2015 Liked: Cleanliness #### Disappointed that no restaurant on days we stayed. more than half rooms were occupied but no meals at night. ##### Marie ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 4 Apr 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Beautiful, clean, authentic space. Kind, informative Japanese waitstaff, although strange-mannered man at reception-wouldn't wait for me to put on my shoes before taking key upon leaving, and tried to hand me an invoice while I was occupied tying my shoes, placing it on the floor infront of me in full view of my partner (who did not know what I'd paid up until then). Other than that everything went smoothly and the food was lovely. ##### Verified traveller ### 10/10 Excellent #### Carla F. 23 Feb 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### Very authentic experience Exceptional service and great attention to detail! ##### Carla F. ### 6/10 Okay #### Martina, Australia - VIC - Melbourne 10 Nov 2014 Disliked: Property conditions & facilities Room too small to relax no place to sit back and relax ##### Martina ### 10/10 Excellent #### Richard, Australia - VIC - Melbourne 27 Apr 2014 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Facilities: Superb...but futons!; Value: Good quality for the cost; Service: Flawless, Fantastic service; Cleanliness: Spotless; Sublime Japanese breakfast!
