A simple yet cozy experience”

At the most convenient location next to the Hasuike bus stop, the hotel offers a simple yet cozy stay for travellers and hikers of the Shiga Kogen. The meals are unexpectedly impressive, using a lot of greens and local ingredients. Onsens are very good too, helping to relax the tiredness of a day of hiking in the hills. Recommended for those who want a tranquil, soothing and warm stay.

Incredible staff and a great time”

The staff made our trip incredible. The private Onsen was used daily and rooms were older but comfortable. Daily breakfast and dinner are deliciously prepared and on a five day rotation. Ski rentals were excellent quality and affordable. The location was great with a car; can’t comment on busses as we drove everywhere. Only improve the to be recommended is that the western beds are quite hard by American standards. We will return!
