Hotel Hot Springs di Shiga Prefecture, Japan

The hotel was a little dated but it had a lovely onsen and family games eg air hockey, carom board, ping pong, and a laundromat that always had free machines! There are only a handful of restaurants around so book the breakfast and dinner in the hotel when you are booking as going there for dinner without a reservation will cost you a whopping S$92 per adult. The spread was not bad but not great. There are a gang of chonky cats in the nearby park and an amazing view of Lake Biwa. You can catch the sunset from the lounge while enjoying some complimentary drinks and tidbits. The nearest restaurant El Ocho is a homey Spanish restaurant - really good food!

Ryokusuitei’s environment, service, and facilities were excellent. Our pre-stored luggage was promptly delivered to the room. The private bath room included breakfast, which was delicious with many options, plus a small stove to grill seafood yourself. While the private bath isn’t completely secluded—people in a building across, though quite far away, can see in—the stunning view of Lake Biwa more than makes up for it. The large public bath is open nearly 24 hours, featuring a relaxing lounge area afterward, free ice cream, and complimentary coffee in the lobby during the day. Upon check-in, we received shopping discount coupons that could be used to purchase small towels, scented balms, and storage bags.

Hotel is fancy and clean. Love the Japanese style room and also the hot spring included in the hotel. We check-in late at 8pm and we felt warm welcome by the concierge staff as the staff helped collect our luggage’s and arrange sending them to our room. The check-in staff are inflexible on the late check-out request and she seems only wants to sell the membership account. It’s a bit hard feeling of the way she tell us a BIG NO if we don’t join the membership for the late check-out. End up we didn’t request it anymore as we didn’t like been “force” to do so.

Perkhidmatan ini sangat baik dan beberapa kakitangan boleh bercakap Kantonis. Apabila anda melihat motosikal jahat saya, anda segera pergi dan memberitahu saya bahawa saya tahu di mana untuk meletakkannya. Makanan ini lazat Saya mempunyai bilik mandi peribadi di dalam bilik saya, jadi saya tidak pergi ke tempat mandi besar Bukan dekat dengan Jr. Menyusahkan kalau bukan kereta sampah. Tetapi terdapat banyak makanan liar berhampiran trak sanga 🤭

The room itself has a bathroom sink which is pretty convenient. Not expecting much given the price but it did have everything u need for a basic sleep. Surprisingly the public bath is just hot water not onsen.

Spacious clean room and comfortable beds with great lake view, nice and friendly staff, very good buffet breakfast, free easy private parking, onsen on-site, will come back again.

酒店位置一般，雖然不算非常方便，但附近自然景色宜人，適合尋求放鬆的客人。環境非常乾淨，房間及設施的維護做得很好，讓我感到舒適和放心。 服務水平出色，員工友善且樂於助人，讓我在住宿期間有賓至如歸的感覺。設施完善，浴場的設計很棒，讓人能夠充分放鬆，享受溫泉的樂趣。

The experience was great. Staff are friendly and nice. Breakfast and dinner provided are sumptuous. They provide shuttle bus services connecting to various JR stations so no need take taxi at all.

入住經濟雙床房在5樓，可以看到一點湖景，房間有點小，不過帶登機箱還過得去。男生大浴場有一個大室內池，大約可以泡8位，戶外浴池可以泡4位，1個桑拿，熱水池溫度滿高，在室外會比較舒服。早餐簡單吃，還是可以吃的飽，選擇不多。櫃檯老爺爺不會說英語，用手機翻譯還是可以知道要表達什麼，服務很熱誠。櫻花季週末三千多元，還過的去，離車站走路6分鐘，車站旁比較多餐廳，還有間大超市。

Good hotel if you really want to get away and relax. Do spas and light/ medium sightseeing. It’s about an hour train ride to any major modern shopping stuff. They serve Japanese style breakfast and western breakfast for extra charge. Make sure to specify which one. For dinner it’s usually Japanese style. And the food was good. I found out a lot of things I did and didn’t like for cuisine.
