The views from the room were breathtaking, and everything was spotless and perfectly organized. Surrounded by beautiful nature, the hotel offers a peaceful atmosphere that makes the whole experience unforgettable. Without a doubt, this is a place I would love to return to again.

The stay was absolutely fabulous! The room was beautiful with the best view imaginable. The onsen was often available just for oneself, making the experience especially relaxing. The tastings offered throughout the day were outstanding and a real highlight. In just ten minutes, one can reach the lake and the ropeway, making the location super convenient. Highly recommended for anyone seeking relaxation and breathtaking scenery!

The property was very clean and the rooms were spacious and well equipped. The Rakuyu service team was professional at all times and provided exceptional service as described in the booking. The shuttle driver was amazing and kind! And the Onsen was amazing! I’d like to come back and be able to just relax more at the hotel.

Beautiful views and at walking distance to funicular, the Ryokan was clean and had a gorgeous view of the lake as advertised. The Onsen were well attended, very clean and peaceful. The lounge was very nice, had plenty of food and variety. My only complaint is that the staff doesn’t inform guests of available tours - there was one tour available to stargazing and we did not find out until the next morning when we were leaving for example, they have no dinning recommendations and don’t seem too happy to come pick you up with the shuttle, kind of frowning and upset, they don’t even greet you.

Enjoyed the amazing view from the lobby and our room. Also really loved all the delicious food served in their club lounge. Friendly staff, nice location… it is quite steep of a walk up and down the narrow road, but doable. Already planning to come back on our next trip to Japan!
