Ryokan Biwako Ryokusuitei (Otsu, Japan)

A freshwater lake in Shiga. The image of Lake Biwa that comes to mind is its calm and gentle face. Located on the west coast of Lake Biwa, our Biwako Ryokusuitei stands on the graceful land overlooking the open lake with lush green Mt Hiei in the background. The design concept of our hotel is to incorporate blessings of nature so that customers spend their time in a relaxing space. You will surely be filled with open feeling in your guestroom with superb view. Some guestrooms are equipped with private open-air hot spring bathroom facing the lake. When you arrive at our inn (hotel) and step into the commodious lobby complete with Cassina furniture and see the picturesque scenery of Lake Biwa out of the window, you’ll soon be relaxed and relieved from stress. The artistic beauty created in authentic Kaiseki course dinner, especially in Hassun (hors d'oeuvre) and Mukozuke (side dish) are breathtakingly. After enjoying special dinner, please be relaxed in a private open-air hot spring bathroom at the terrace of your room, feeling cool breeze blowing from Lake Biwa.
