My main memory will be about the dinner and breakfast. Both were phenomenal. A real experience.
The only downsides were that the room felt a bit tired and the bathroom smelled of stagnant water and had some little bugs in the shower.
The staff was super helpful and responsive.
Great hotel right at Lake Biwa. The included dinner and breakfast were amazing even for Japan standards (but the restaurant staff doesnt speak any English so have google translate ready... they were still friendly and did their best to understand). Its also quite far away from the station so be sure to use the free shuttle. We had the traditional room with tatami and futons which was neat, spacious and had a great view of the lake.
