Biwako Ryokusuitei
520-0101 Shiga, Otsu, Ogoto 6-1-6, Japan – Great location - show map
The staff were all excellent and really friendly. The dinners were amazing with many traditional dishes that we had never had before. The breakfast was also really good. Having a hot spring hot tub on your deck is awesome and a great way to relax.
