“We planned to go snowboarding for 4 days at Biwako Valley however when we arrived it wasn't snowing! We checked into the hotel anyway and the staff were unbelievably kind taking the time to use a translating app to communicate other options we may have. The owner of the hotel called around different snow fields to find one suitable for us then was very kind and even drove us up the mountain 45 minutes away! After our day of snowboarding he even came and collected us from the local train station as there was a severe storm at the time to make sure we were safe. Dinner and breakfast were beautiful 5 course meals that were very delicious traditional Japanese meals, the nicest pork belly and salmon I have eaten. The room was very large and comfortable. Our favourite hotel in Japan!”
