Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers clean and spacious rooms with a classic tatami design, perfect for a birthday celebration. The service is top-notch, with helpful and professional staff always going the extra mile. Located in the charming Iya Valley, the hotel provides access to a historic village and an open air onsen. The dining experience offers a variety of local foods, although slightly simplistic. Overall, a delightful stay with authentic Japanese charm.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms were a bit dated but still cozy with classic tatami rooms and a lovely view of the tram. The attention to detail was impressive, from little lights on the switches to having enough power points and USB ports for all our electronics. The hotel was quiet despite being full, thanks to its location next to the indoor Onsen. The service was top-notch, with attentive and hospitable staff always ready to assist. The location was perfect, within walking distance to the Vine bridge and Biwa waterfall in the beautiful Iya Valley. The dining options, while simple, offered a good variety of local foods that made the experience enjoyable. The facilities were well-maintained, adding to the overall comfort of the stay.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. While the rooms were comfortable and well-equipped, the poor lighting and sound-proofing were minor drawbacks. The service was incredibly helpful and friendly throughout my stay. The location, despite being off-putting initially, turned out to be delightful with stunning views of the mountains. The dining experience was enjoyable with a variety of local ingredients, although slightly on the simple side.
