Reviewer Type: Family With Children
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Gorgeous view of the lake from room. Easy access to parking. Bigger than expected space. Good amenities. Very good value for money, we had a very comfortable stay for 1 night only.
Negative: Breakfast is a little on the pricey side, we were glad we didn't take it also because of the complicated queuing system with indication of congestions. Sounds like a stressful breakfast although we didn't actually try. There are on-site restaurants, but we opted to drive to find a reasonable local eatery for dinner. The room is also a little dated.
Summary: Exceeed expectations.

Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: It offers amazing lake view and comfortable rooms.
Negative: The EV chargers are slow and expensive (¥500 per hour for 6kwh - which is ¥2500 for a measly 30kw of charge, for example). I wish (1) it would be provided to EV users to charge overnight free for hotel guests so they can continue on their journey worry-free, or (2) have rapid fast chargers so guests wouldn’t need to search around the city.
Summary: It’s a wonderful place to stay and relax if you ever consider visiting Biwako Lake

Positive: Every room has a lake facing. Can see the Michigan ship come to the dock in the morning. The hotel has a huge swimming pool.
Negative: When we arrived (by car), the concierge didn't even bother to help us with the luggage. There is no public bath but there is a bath tub with bath salt provided.
Summary: Nice hotel at the edge of Otsu / Lake Biwa.
