Enjoyable stay in ryokan!
Room was large and clean. Service was excellent although facilities were a bit dated. Food was good and we especially enjoyed the buffet breakfast. Checkout at 10am was a bit early compared to other hotels. There is not much to see within walking distance of the onsen.

It combines both the good points of modern hotel and traditional onsen ryokan. I should stay here for longer time rather than just 2 nights.

Honeymoon delight
We stayed two nights as part of our honeymoon trip to Japan. Loved everything about this place. From the Private Onsen in our room to the delightful restaurant service. We enjoyed wearing our Yukata around the building and taking in the beautiful views and enjoying the traditional breakfast. Would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for relaxing couple of days.

Hot aircon
The food was mediocre and the aircon in the room was soo hot. They offered an electric fan but it still was not enough. Aside from that everything was good.

Mansel, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The Biwako Ryokusuite was a great experience. Has beautiful public onsen and amazing food. The private bath faces the east with a great sunrise experience. Getting there is easy from Kyoto station, I transferred to a local train from the Shinkansen. The resort has a shuttle that will pick up your luggage if you are early or pick you up if you are on time for checkin. If you are early, I recommend walking from the station to the resort, beautiful temple on the way. Staff were extremely friendly, and most drinks and snacks are all inclusive. Highly recommend to get the Kaiseki dinner while you are there.
Yu, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Lovely view from our room. We thoroughly enjoyed the outdoor bath. Buffet breakfast was amazing with a large variety of options. We stayed there for 2 nights and had two different kaiseki meals. We also loved how easy it was to get here from Kyoto station.

Awesome location, the dinner kaiseki set was delicious but a little bit expensive. It seems like a lot of locals were fishing at the lake right behind the hotel, so if you fish I'd recommend that you try
