The 5 stars is based on the Expedia value and I arrived after dark. With current exchange I paid $46usd for a standard double room. The property has blemishes but it was a tremendous value (even before exchange). My experience was one night and I didn't soak in the public bath. But the residents appeared to enjoy it. I would definitely look at this property again if I'm in Nagahama.
Claude, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

First I want to say so the staff were great and friendly. However the property is such in the 80's and not in a good retro way. From washroom, bedding and carpets, everything looks original to when this place was built. The only areas that looks upgraded is the lobby area, which is what u see in the pictures. But much to do in surrounding area and a kid of restaurants closed by 8pm. For an advertised "resort", they need to do a lot better. Keep driving to next town and stay somewhere else.

酒店位置較偏僻,自駕遊還可以,最近的便利店也需5分鐘車程,但酒店提供水機可免費斟冷熱水。 酒店設有公眾溫泉、乒乓球、康樂棋、按摩、泳池,可讓旅客放鬆放空。 前台職員服務態度很好,有禮貌有笑容,知道我們是香港遊客還安排能說普通話的職員協助check in手續,方便溝通。 酒店房間很大,乾淨整潔; 浴室乾濕分離,空間充裕; 水壓非常有力,冷熱水供應亦很到位。 是次入住11樓高層,房間是湖景,能看到全日本最大的湖—琵琶湖。整體感覺很好,有機會會再次入住。

Großzügige Zimmer und Onsen

Unser 4-Bett-Zimmer war sehr geräumig und die Betten bequem. Das Zimmer war schon etwas in die Jahre gekommen aber sauber. Der Onsenbereich war toll. Das Innen- und Aussenbecken sehr groß und es gab einen sehr großen Relax-Raum mit Getränken und sehr bequemen Stühlen. Dann gab es 2x gratis Snacks und Getränke, auch Alkohol. Bier allerdings nur in der ersten Runde. Wir wollten vor Ort spontan Abendessen gehen. Das war jedoch extrem teuer und eigentlich nicht erschwinglich. Das sollte bei Interesse im Vorfeld schon gebucht werden.

コスパ良しでリピートあり♡

年配のものがいると初めに伝えておいた為か⁇お部屋にマッサージチェアがあったので、しっかり使わせてもらいました。 配慮がされているなと感じました。 館内も清潔ですし、ウェルカムドリンクとスナックも種類も多く、コスパも良かったのでまた利用したいです。
