Very good experience at the Mercure Lake Biwa. A high-standard hotel with great views and quality services. Even though there were many group guests, everything was well organized. Thanks to my Accor card, I could enjoy some nice benefits, which was much appreciated. The staff was friendly, attentive, and always willing to help.
They are also bike friendly !

The buffet breakfast is very great! A great variety of dishes could be chosen. Highly recommended the burger and salmon benedict eggs. The room is a little bit aged but still clean.

Very good service that reply my request and issues almost immediately. I have misplaced my passport in my luggage and wrongly thought they have been left inside the room. Those staff just go to search my room again. They also provide very good breakfast with full of choices and freshly baked breads. It’s a value for money option too
