Relaxing Onsen Experience

The onsen at Grand Mercure Lake Biwa Resort & Spa provided a tranquil escape. The spaciousness of the baths meant I never felt crowded, even during busy hours. The complimentary drinks like vinegar and amazake added a unique touch that enhanced the experience. It was the perfect way to unwind after a long day of exploring!

Very nice Breakfast Buffet

I was truly impressed by the breakfast buffet. It offered an excellent variety of dishes, including both Japanese and Western options that were fresh and of high quality. Everything was delicious, making it the best breakfast I had during my stay in Japan. It certainly set a positive tone for my day!

I had a delightful stay at this resort spa! The atmosphere was incredibly calming, and the staff made me feel welcome from the moment I arrived. The rooms were pristine and cozy, perfect for unwinding after a day of relaxation. However, the dining options left a bit to be desired, especially for breakfast choices. The pool area was relaxing, providing an ideal escape. Overall, I felt it was good value for what I paid, though I wish Wi-Fi was complimentary instead of an extra charge.
