This was the highlight stay of our entire two-week trip! Absolutely beautiful hotel, stunning surroundings, convenient to Oishi Park. We were still waking up very early due to the time difference, so we went to the onsen to relax and watch the sunrise. It was wonderful. Every single staff member here was phenomenal and did everything they could to make our stay comfortable and memorable. When we left, we said we just wanted to come back to Hotel Rakuyu for the entirety of the trip next time! Thank you for an incredible memory!

I visited this hotel in 2022, and visit again this year (2026). The room seems newly renovated and looks very new, clean and updated. The staff is friendly, helpful as always. This hotel is certainly worth it.

Wonderful hotel, everything we could ask for. Great room with view of the lake, private onsen, and comfy beds. Great public onsen, and access to a lounge for free breakfast, drinks and food throughout the day. Staff were great, including transfers to the local train station. All fantastic.

Service was excellent and the breakfast and happy hour was the best I have ever experienced in this price range. The only downside is the location on a hillside and the walk up the hill is pretty steep and not for anyone too elderly.
