We had a fantastic stay at a hotel near the train station. The room was spacious and clean, with a breathtaking view of the lake. The buffet breakfast had a great variety. The Italian and Teppanyaki restaurants served delicious dinners. The highlight was the onsen, offering a spectacular view of the lake at night. The shuttle bus and convenient location made exploring the area easy. A longer stay is recommended to fully enjoy the hotel, town, and nearby attractions. Don't miss the ferry ride and the gift shop!

Cannot find any faults 😃

Great location with beautiful lake views and easy access by train. Rooms are clean, comfortable, and well-equipped with amenities. Loved the hot springs which were incredibly relaxing.

Breakfast buffet was crowded and staff could have been more proactive in managing it. , filling out numerous forms with the same information and confusion over what was complimentary was a hassle.
