It's a good accommodation. The food was ingenious and delicious. I stayed in a room with a bath, but it felt like the room was attached to the bath rather than the bath in the room.You can also see Lake Biwa and Chikubu Island in front of you.

I think this is a very good inn for two people to spend a relaxing time.The food was delicious and featured local produce.The bath is reserved for private use, so you can take a relaxing bath. I would definitely like to repeat it.

I visited at the end of October. For couples? Of course, if you have two adults, you can also bring your parents and children or friends. This is a quiet hotel located on the lake. For dinner, I had Omi beef sukiyaki! It has a lot of meat and is very satisfying. Having dinner side-by-side with the view from the window felt calmer and more delicious.Breakfast was also served at the same place, and there were so many items that even if you had a small portion at a time, you would still be full.I heard that this hotel is still in its current form, but I wonder if the customers will continue to grow this hotel. It was a wonderful inn with many things that made me feel that way.

Lake Biwa is right in front of you, and the view from the room was great! During the day, you can gaze at it in a daze.It was the first time I had funa sushi as a dish, and I was surprised at how delicious it was.It was said to be homemade, and any preconceptions I had about Funazushi were dispelled.The biwa trout was also delicious, and we also had other fish from Lake Biwa!I was able to enter the private bath smoothly without having to share it with other guests.Good accommodation in a quiet place

An inn with great food.It would be nice to have a table where you can sit side by side and look out at Lake Biwa, rather than facing each other.There are many delicacies from Shiga Prefecture, and the dishes are so elegant that you will never get bored.It seems that reservations for two people are not accepted, but I would be happy if it would be OK to travel alone on weekdays...

When I was thinking of taking a short trip to celebrate our 20th anniversary, I was drawn to the concept of a hotel specializing in two-adult trips, where only two people can stay in one room, so I decided to use it.There are 3 types of rooms with different concepts, 7 rooms in total.Three private baths at Onoe OnsenMeals are served at a counter divided into semi-private rooms where you can enjoy your meal with a view of Lake Biwa.The parking lot is also spacious.Since it was a weekday before Golden Week, we were the only two guests staying.Therefore, we completely conquered the three private baths, each with a temperature of 39 degrees, 40 degrees, and 41 degrees ^_^Since it was April, 40 degrees and 41 degrees were perfect♪The meal was a kaiseki course using locally sourced ingredients and was delicious with a wide variety of dishes.The dishes were creatively prepared using local ingredients, and the proprietress' explanations made them easy to understand and even more delicious.The rice balls for dinner were delicious.I am satisfied with everything from the exterior, interior, staff service, and food.I remember a long time ago when a tour conductor told me that traveling is a way to have an extraordinary experience.If you want to enjoy a luxurious trip for two adults, "Kihiro" is the perfect choice ♪We will also use it for an extraordinary experience.

Despite the coronavirus pandemic, the proprietress' cheerful conversation and delicious food made me feel lighter. I was impressed by the flavor of the soup stock and the combination of eel and sesame tofu. …
