L’Hotel Du Lac (Nagahama, Shiga Prefecture) 1 Verified Reviews | Tablet Hotels

"About the only thing L’Hotel du Lac has in common with a traditional ryokan is its country setting — in this case, on the shores of Lake Biwa in Shiga Prefecture. The rest is pure of-the-moment luxury, and we don’t mean flatscreens juxtaposed with tatami floors and futons. This is wall-to-wall modern design, a precise aesthetic stripped to its essentials without feeling too spare. It can be a bit jarring to step out of the postcard-ready surroundings and into the airy, glass-walled lobby, but once you’ve arrived in your guest room, it all comes together." - Tablet Hotels
