The traditional Japanese rooms are enjoyable and make your stay something else, if possible get a room with a outdoor hinoki bath they're amazing.

Fantastic place to stay for my first time in Japan after being in Tokyo. This place receives forwarded luggage, staff are very helpful/kind, the property is easy to navigate, and the shuttle system was great. The shuttle was very helpful getting back and forth from the station. Also, they have a cell phone at the station to call for the shuttle so no need to worry if you don’t have a Japanese phone number. Would stay again and recommend it to foreigners wanting to have a Ryokan experience. Get the half board option because the food was amazing!

We stayed in a suite with private outdoor onsen and it was worth the splurge! The staff are wonderful, breakfast is traditional and tasty, and there are many onsen in the area. Our views of Lake Biwa were unparalleled and magical.

The host was very kind and welcoming. The room was clean and comfortable.
