Short drive to large shopping mall. Shuttle bus available to nearest JR station to get to Kyoto. Wonderful hospitality from the staff. Outstanding feature was the in room drinking water dispenser; very convenient.
we liked this hotel and we are planning to go back
pros: onsen, location, and great view
cons: some areas required better care or be renewed and you need to pay to use the pool.
If you like to drive a bike I believe is a nice place to do it, that actually what I want to do on my next stay, just I believe the food is a bit overpriced compared with other hotels that I have stayed in Japan
Bedroom and washroom were spacious, clean and looked new. Amenities were great. The hotel has a wide range of facilities, including a planetarium, which we really enjoyed. We had a great time.
The staff was very helpful especially for checking on whether places were open and on obtaining a taxi. The rooms lack places to put your clothes and lack suitcases stands so one must plan to use the limited supply of hangars and live out of a suitcase.
The showers are handheld so one might instead plan to use the open facilities and hot baths. The food was excellent and help is available everywhere.
The property itself was wonderful. We stayed in one of the superior rooms with its own private hot spring bath. The staff were wonderful as well and everything about the hotel was great.
What we found though is there really isn’t much to do around the area and not many restaurants that aren’t at the mall.
So if you stay here, plan your day to just hang out at the hotel and eat at the hotel. There is a lot to do from the planetarium to renting bikes, to playing tennis and chilling in the baths.
I loved loved my room was perfect Had a great sleep. Amazing view. Staff were polite and great. Only issue was my son and his friend are cycleing on this trip. They brought their bikes inside to a designated location per staff but someone got in theire and stole some of their tools and lowered the seats etc Was to be a secure spot so that was disappointing. Reported the next morning.
Nice sports facilities, but not friendly to tourists with tattoos. Was extremely limited to activities on property. Outside of fine dining the closest dining option was at the mall which was a 20 minute walk away.

My stay could have been great if I had not been charged for my fully prepaid stay. Be sure to check your bill and check out at the FRONT DESK before leaving the property. I checked out with the concierge and thought I was all set until I received a Bill for late check out.

The dinner offered was scant and of very poor quality. The view was more of road than lake
