We truly enjoyed the beauty and tranquility of beautiful Lake Biwa. It was the perfect place for some rest and relaxatio
Pros:

Perfect location right on the lake. Our room was well appointed with robes and all amenities and had an incredible view of the lake. We loved the welcome happy hour drinks and snacks and also the nightcap drinks and snacks. We looked forward to them every day.

Cons:

I would recommend providing coffee as an option in the room. It was only tea and a cup of coffee in the morning while enjoying the lake view would have been lovely.

Enjoyed the resort overall but do not book the single twin room as it is very small and bathroom is tiny.
Pros:

Perfect location to get away from the hustle and bustle of city life. The amenities were great and I especially enjoyed the welcome drinks and snacks and nightcap.

Cons:

I booked a single room as a single traveler and it was incredibly small and unremarkable. The bathroom was ridiculously small and very odd. This room was nothing like the double room my parents enjoyed.

ホテルから水陸両用バスもお得に乗れるし景色もいいしブュッフェもよかった!
Pros:

オールインクルーシブは家族みんな楽しめた

Cons:

オールインクルーシブの時間やもろもろの説明をもっと詳しくするべきだと思った
風呂場に櫛がないので
フロントでもらえるのかもしれないが
色々な説明をもっと詳しくしてほしい

家族で楽しむ湖畔リゾート
Pros:

所在地、風景は最高。想像したより大きなホテルで驚いた。浴場は良かった。合理的な宿泊施設運営は悪くない。

Cons:

宿泊部屋のインテリアや設備がいかにも古い。大事に使っているので機能に問題はないが、古ぼけた印象が残る。家族連れがわいわいたのしそうだが、大人がゆっくりできる環境ではない。
