LLisa Hsu🇯🇵Taiko Onsen Hamokozuki Ryokan in Nagahama City, Shiga Prefecture. This is a hotel with only eight rooms in a guest room design with a high-end open-air hot spring bath. It is highly recommended. Dinner is a kaiseki course made with seasonal ingredients. A kaiseki course made with local ingredients such as sea urchin okra, carp sushi, Nagahama's specialty grilled mackerel, and Omi beef shabu-shabu hotpot. The napkins have festival patterns and can be taken away as souvenirs. The service staff were very kind and thank you very much! #びわ湖bankおいしいSoupのstay #长浜 Taihe hot spring banghuyue
