Traveller reviews

“Spacious, luxury hotel next to lake and a short train ride from Kyoto”
01 Apr 2025
Large room with great view Great location close to Kyoto Nice onsen

“Beautiful place, would definitely stay again.”
19 Mar 2025
Beautiful hotel, location on the lake and the view from our room was wonderful, they have even positioned the beds so that your feet face the water. Very comfy, warm and clean. Shower was amazing. Parking was easy under the hotel and they kindly paid for it. I had my first onsen experience there, lovely. Restaurants are lovely. The staff were exceptional. Breakfast buffet was great but would have liked some fish.

“Very nice location with lake view and near train stations.”
17 Mar 2025
The view of the lake is amazing. The JR Otsu station was also close by, it can be walked or the shuttle bus to and from the hotel and station.

“Excellent”

Amazing, so amazing! The hotel looks like a 5* hotel, and feels like one. The interior is so fancy, I should have booked it for longer duration, considering how easy it is to reach Kyoto from here. It is double the price of a hotel from Kyoto, but the facilities make up for it. I had the Superior Twin Room - Non-Smoking and the view was amazing and I was lucky enough to catch the fountain show at the docks, which can be viewed clearly from the balcony.

“Serene, peaceful and relaxing”

Near to Otsu station. Hotel still provides shuttle service regularly to Otsu Station. Kyoto station is only 2 stations away. We were able to visit nearby Unari n Uji. Biwako Lake is beautiful and there were firework on one of the nights. Glad that we stayed in Biwako Hotel with room facing the lake.

“Very good”
10 Oct 2024
The reception staff are helpful and can speak English. We rented bikes at the hotel and had great fun cycling around the lake.
