Nice and relaxing environment. Very close to lake side. The buffer worth for the value although the room is a little bit old style.

The buffet breakfast is very great! A great variety of dishes could be chosen. Highly recommended the burger and salmon benedict eggs. The room is a little bit aged but still clean.

Very good service that reply my request and issues almost immediately. I have misplaced my passport in my luggage and wrongly thought they have been left inside the room. Those staff just go to search my room again. They also provide very good breakfast with full of choices and freshly baked breads. It’s a value for money option too

The room is spacious and has a great view overlooking the lake and the castle. It's autumn and can see a lot of red maple trees in the park before the castle. Comfort bed too!

The best onsen hotel i have ever stayed
Really really good facilities with free bar and lounge after onsen
Just a bit far away from jr station
But all the good things make me definitely will book again if i visit this place again

Loved this place. The Lounge has delicious beer and I got a free upgrade. The onsen is also one of the best I have been to in Japan. Highly recommend!
