Easy to get to once you arrive at ogoto station. Once you arrive there’s a poster sign with a cellphone so you can call the onsen to schedule a shuttle van. Very convenient for foreigners who don’t have an overseas phone number. It was a quick ride and I enjoyed the little information that they broadcasted during the ride. (Ie. what to expect when we arrive at the resort, happy hour, etc). We were warmly welcomed by the staff and the one helping us spoke English so the process went smoothly. The resort is pretty big since the amenities are spaced out. Happy hour, public foot baths, ice pops & beverages offered in the library, walk around the terrace, enjoy the onsen. The public onsen was very clean, beautiful and relaxing. There was even a sauna barrel. Instead of water, they provided tea to pour over the coals which steamed and smelled like tea. It was a nice touch. The private onsen rooms were spectacular. Clean and spacious. Great view of biwako lake. The futons that they set up during dinner were nice and toasty when we went back to the rooms. We had a large group so they surprised us with a private room which was appreciated. Dinner was spectacular with an amazing spread. Breakfast buffet was good but wish they had offered sashimi/sushi/chirashi bowls. They did offer seafood to be cooked at your table which was a nice experience. I really liked that they even had tray trolleys to hold your tray while you choose your food. I highly recommend this onsen

It should be explained that there is a hard check in at 3:00. This hotel is designed for guests to be welcomed at 3:00. We arrived early to think we could enjoy the facilities and this was not the case. The surrounding area is very depressed and not a thing to walk to. Ryokan is a nice change from cities.

A very excellent experience overall. Staff was spectacular! Our private onsen was fantastic and the room was fine, it actually has softer beds which is a huge difference from other hotels in Japan from my experience. Kaiseki dinner was great, getting greeted with a cup of Yuzu Tea while we wait for check in was also great. I only have one request if you are reading this: be exceptionally nice to the staff. We watched the ladies checking people in get mocked for how they walked in their traditional dress, even though they were going above and beyond to make sure the people staying there were receiving great service. I genuinely felt terrible for them. We will be back one day! We loved our experience

Super clean and everything was available in the rooms, tea, kitchenette and basic toiletries. Also enjoyed the public bath with barrel sauna and cold plunge tub. We had the shabu shabu dinner which was very good with seasonal menu. Very authentic Japanese. All in all a great stay. Definitely check out their instagram to get directions to contact the shuttle if coming from the train station.
