Hotel with beautiful view”

We spent 1 day here. The morning view was very beautiful from our room. Lake Biwa looked stunning. We had a buffet breakfast with a good COVID prevention. The restaurant is located on a high floor, which showed lake Biwa's view. This was an old hotel but they provide a comforting bedding

Excellent Large Rooms”

I intended a one night stopover on a cycling trip, but heavy rain meant I spent a second night. The first was a bit expensive (national holiday), the second was very cheap, so overall good value. Other reviews make it sound bad, but although it's not the most modern, that's not really a problem for me. It is well kept and very clean. The best bit is the size of the rooms. Mine had 3 beds and a couch plus table, desk and chair. Also a nice large opening window. There is a large downstairs sitting area with tea and coffee and local newspapers. A 7 eleven is about 200 metres up the road. The staff were very friendly and let me keep my bike in my room. This is always a bonus to touring cyclists who often ride expensive bikes. Strangely there is no English sign that I could see from the road. It was a pleasant change from the normal small box like rooms you get in budget business hotels.
