So so

Restaurant was too busy, long lines even with reserved time Hot tub was not hot enough. I ended up taking hot shower to warm up. What is the point to pay extra for not having private Onsen tub. Lounge space was great to relax and read magazine Great having laundry facility it was very useful!

Staff are friendly and helpful. The hotel facilities are great especially the lounges are very spacious. There are plenty of spaces in the hotel for relaxation. There are even snacks, desserts and drinks, both cold and hot including alcohol provided in the lounge for guests’ consumption. And each guest is entitled to a scoop of ice-cream per day.

This property is stunning! The foot bath bar is lovely and the nightly snacks and drinks are a nice touch. Lovely onsen and great location overlooking the water. Can highly recommend this hotel. The restaurant is VERY expensive for dinner FYI. Breakfast is great and you do get a scoop of premium ice cream per day at the onsite chocolatier.

We have booked a room for 3 people and there were amenities set up for 2 people only in the room, it was some effort to communicate with the front desk to get things sorted. Other than that, it was nice experience, the onsen was good and the buffet offered great variety and quality food.

Great rooms & cuisine but poor reception manners

Always a great visit due to the rooms and cuisine. This time though the hotel had hired some rather junior staff into the reception and as concierges who simply neglected helping with luggage and tried even to ignore requests made for it so the staff could use some basic trainings. The difference in service levels met here vs. elsewhere on my travel was just embarrassing for a rather luxurious establishment. The staff & cuisine in the restaurant were top notch though and the rooms just splendid.

We enjoyed the facilities, restaurant and environment of this resort. It's located in a good location in Shari. However, it was such an disappointment when we found our room was an old Japanese style instead of the modern Western style shown on the property's website and the booking agent Expedia's. The description and pictures from the Expedia's booking page are somehow misleading. I'd rather choose another booking agent if I knew this mismatch.

Comfortable room but poor food

The location and the facilities of the hotel were fine. My main problem with the hotel service was the dinner option. I stayed there for two nights, and the only restaurant that was open was the Japanese restaurant, Hoan, and they served a buffet only. The Grill restaurant was closed on both nights. The café was closed on the second night. Most of the nearby restaurants were closed after 5pm. Apparently, the hotel is understaffed. The hotel staff also speak very limited English.
