Very remote, but beautiful surrounding. Only sensible, if you want to visit the closeby temples and go hiking. But it is an excellent hotel, which exceeded my expectations by far.

とても綺麗で食事も美しく美味しく優雅な時間を過ごすことができました。ただ、1点だけ、ホテルから最寄駅までのシャトルバスを利用したのですが、運転が荒く、山道だったのもあり、酔ってしまいました。それ以外は最高のホテルでした。

琵琶湖花火大会を見るために利用させていただきました。周りが静かな立地で見晴らしも良くゆっくりと過ごせました。夏は特に涼しく25度前後で快適でした。料理も豪華で美味しく、非常に満足でした♪ ホテルマンの対応もよくフランクに接することができました。 また利用したいと思います。

屋外にあるソファに座って景観を眺めてながらおしゃべりを楽しんで帰ろうと思い立ったらソファの中が湿気ており、お尻が濡れてしまった。 フロントでアイロンを借り事なきをえたが折角のいい思い出が台無しになった。残念だった。
