Biwako Hanakaido

It was a great stay at this ryokan! The hotel is able to arrange a car to fetch you from the JR station. You can call them using a dedicated phone at the station which is used to contact the different ryokans. The car arrived in 10mins or so. The ride to the ryokan was also less than 10mins. The hotel also fetched us to the station on the last day of our stay. The ryokan itself is homely and cozy. We were greeted by an english speaking staff who introduced us to the amenities of the ryokan. There was also a nice welcome tea and matcha chocolate. Our bags were brought to our room as well during this time. The room is spacious and cozy. The hotel prepared 2 welcome biscuits in the room which was a nice personal touch. The room has a nice living room and a great view of Lake Biwa. Recommend to catch the sunrise over the lake! There are 2 normal beds as well as futon beds (need to set up yourself). Both are comfortable. The hotel also prepared pretty yukata for both female and male guests which you can wear during the stay. There are 4 different designs for ladies, and one design for the guys. You can request for different size if the one in the room doesn’t fit you. There is also a full length mirror and a mini dressing area at the side of the living room. It was fun dressing up in the yukata! The toilet, basin, shower and hot tub areas are all separate. The toilet is a little small, but the basin and mirror area is very spacious. The shower area is quite small as well and the shower head is rather low so you need to hold the shower head if you wish to wash up while standing. There is a small stool given for you to sit down though. The hot tub area is semi-outdoor and you can see Lake Biwa. But it is quite small (only good for one person). It was too cold so we didn’t use the hot tub. Instead, we booked the private onsen for 50mins. The private onsen has a private toilet and dressing area which is equipped with hairdryer, body lotion etc. There is a water dispenser as well if you need to hydrate yourself. The onsen area has a washing area, and the hot tub area is spacious for 2 person. There are privacy screens around the onsen area but there is a small gap to let in cold air for ventilation. Wish there is a good view from the private onsen but it was still enjoyable! Dinner and breakfast was Kaiseki style, and the meals were one of the highlights for my husband and I. We really enjoyed the courses which are clean tasting yet wholesome, fresh and flavourful. It was such a sumptuous treat! The ryokan also has a souvenir shop if you wish to buy anything back. Overall, my husband and I really enjoyed the stay here and we agreed this was one of the main highlights of our 12 days trip in Japan. Highly recommend!

Good hot spring resort in the region. Excellent service and also provides good food quality.

The staff is very helpful and friendly. The view on the lake is very nice. Free shuttle from the station is a plus. Diner and breakfast was delicious and were a great experience. The TV could be larger. The public bath is not very large.

Good place to relax but the hotel is out of the way and it was quite difficult to explore the surrounding area.

入住此旅館最重要的目的，就是品嚐夜晚的料理及溫泉的設施。😎😎😎 上述兩者都令人感到非常之滿意，所以必定會推介比其他朋友💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻

🇯🇵滋賀縣長濱市太閣溫泉浜湖月旅館，這是一間擁有高級露天溫泉浴池的客房設計的旅館只有八間房非常推薦。晚餐是時令食材的懷石料理使用海膽秋葵、鯉魚壽司、長濱名產烤青花魚、近江牛涮鍋小鍋等當地食材的懷石料理。餐巾是祭典的圖案做為手信可以帶走服務人員非常親切十分感謝！ #びわ湖畔おいしい湯の宿　 #長浜太閤温泉浜湖月

Si quieres vivir una experiencia totalmente japonesa te lo recomiendo mucho. Tienes la opción de dormir en futones, vestir la típica yutaka para ir a cenar un menú desgustacion solo apto para los amantes de la auténtica comida japonesa o a personas que les guste probar comidas exóticas. Muy limpio y con una zona de aguas y spa pequeñito pero muy agradable. Muy recomendable!

對餐記憶猶新，温泉也很舒適

酒店非常非常好，絕對強力推薦。
