Traveling in the off-season, the surrounding environment of the hotel is very peaceful. You can run by the lake and take the cable car for sightseeing. The breakfast and dinner are very exquisite, and the presentation and taste are good. The only drawback is that the hot springs are slightly thin.

After the epidemic, I booked four hotels in Hoshino, three hotels in Japan and one Oirase in Japan for the first time after the epidemic. First of all, the most worthy of recognition is Hoshino’s warm and thoughtful service. In contrast, the most satisfying thing in Dile is that Jie Enzhou drank all kinds of Shizuoka tea very attentively. The most perfunctory thing is Kaiboroto, which is folded with paper and packed with dried flowers. The tea bar is the most abundant, and it’s also Kaienshu’s facilities. If you buy and renovate the old hot springs, they have charm. Instead, the new ones are express hotel hot springs, such as Kaiboroto Kai Alpine meals. It’s all very good, but Enshu is more exquisite and better for my taste. The quality of sashimi is better. Traffic to Hamamatsu and take the bus for 50 minutes and walk for 5 minutes. Unfortunately, this bus line will go to the zoo and Hamamatsu Botanical Garden. It’s very good. I should come again and highly recommend the water quality of Lake Hamana, which is average in Japan.

Stayed 3 nights at Kai Enshu. The hotel is just located opposite the Lake Hamanako. Our Onsen Suite is located on the 7th Floor, overlooking the beautiful lake from dawn to dusk. It is also within walking distance to The Lake Cruise departure point and the Cable Car (Ropeway) Station. Nearby, there are also Seven Eleven and Family Mart Convenient Store. If you wish to walk to Kanzanji small little town, it is about 15 mins walk away. Please note the town is pretty quiet during weekday and most of the shops are not open. Our suite is immaculately appointment and it comes with Private Onsen. Though the price is high but it is worth it to book this room category. We booked the Half Board plan (Breakfast and Kaiseki Dinner). They only offered Japanese Breakfast, and no other choices unlike other Kai or Hoshinoya, they do have Western Options. The serving is extremely small, if you are a big eater, this is not for you. Same goes to the dinner, the Kaiseki though it is beautiful and colourful, prepared carefully by the chef using freshly local produce, but in our opinion, the portion has to be right. It is way too small for westerners or Asian who eats regularly. Upon arrival, the staff didn't inform us when the Ropeway and Lake Cruise will be closed, as these are the 2 major attractions they should inform all their clients so they can plan their days. When we were there, the Ropeway was closed for 2 days, and the Cruise, not operating on certain days.  For the breakfast and dinner, most of the dishes are seafood or fishes. We are not very comfortable in eating fish with lots of bones, in our opinion, there should be options as well but there was none. The Tea Brewing ceremony was done in Japanese and we don't understand a bit, more effort should be done to cater to the English speaking audience. The socks provided in the suite was not as comfortable as Kai Yufuin which the quality is better, and it also has the anti slip stud. Please standardized the offering. At the Tea House, there were only 2 types of Cold tea provided where they have 6 dispensers but the tea offered were repetitive for the 3 nights we stayed there, we do not understand the approach. It is a nice resort but there are rooms for improvement.

[Accommodation fee] 1 night, 2 meals. 119,250 yen/3 people. Japanese-Western style room with tea room living room (maximum 4 people) [Comments] I made a reservation online at the beginning of April. Please note that cancellation fees will be charged from 21 days before. It was a one-night trip with my elderly mother. It is just a short walk from Kanzanji SIC, past the zoo. Right in front of you, across the road, is the Hamana Lake and Kanzanji ropeway. The front entrance is not large, but there is a tea incense burner burning on the path to the front desk, and a pleasant smell is floating around. The front desk is on the third floor, and first of all, I make a reservation for the local "Bicharaku Hospitality" new tea tasting experience. I had a little time, so I went to the large public bath. I was able to relax in the indoor and outdoor baths separated by glass. There was also a quiz during the new tea tasting experience, which was fun. I then went to "Onsen Iroha". At the end of the class on the quality of the spring water and how to bathe, you can drink "amazake" (sweet sake) which is also available in the refrigerator in your room for a fee. You can also get a "yu-in book", but I wonder how much it will cost to complete the collection. Dinner from 5:30 p.m. is a kaiseki meal in a semi-private room. The hot food is hot, the cold food is cold, everything is delicious, and the staff are very attentive to your needs. In the evening, we had "ochake". They also had non-alcoholic drinks. Our room was on the sixth floor, but we could see the whole view of Oku-Hamanako Lake right in front of us, and we could see the ropeway and the lights of the Hamana Lake SA in the distance. The bathroom only has a shower, but we didn't use it because we went to the large bath three times. Furoshiki (Japanese-style cloth) was also prepared and we were allowed to take it home, so we touched it up and it has now become our "noren" (curtain curtain). Tea is provided for "relaxation sencha" when you arrive, "good night sencha" before going to bed, and "awakening sencha". The large bath is alternated between men and women. The morning bath was an open-air bath with tea balls floating in a large wooden barrel. There was no view, but this was also satisfying. Before breakfast, we did tea picking exercises. And breakfast was at the same table, and the miso soup was delicious. Everything was worth the price.

Upon entering the building, you are greeted by the pleasant aroma of tea. There is tea tasting in the travel library, and you can take tea leaves to your room and enjoy drinking them or placing them in an incense burner to enjoy the aroma. There are three types of tea, including morning tea, and sweets in the room. There is also a water server in the hallway. There are three types of cold tea in the large hot spring bath: before bathing, during bathing, and after bathing. We were taught how to enjoy local tea and enjoyed delicious tea. For the meal, we ordered a special kaiseki meal. We had sashimi, three types of fried puffer fish, white-grilled eel, and eel clay pot rice. Considering that we went to eat with two people, I think the price was the same or maybe cheaper. Of course, there were local ingredients, and we were very satisfied. It's a place I would like to come back to.

The hot spring attached to the room was great! The food was also great! I had pufferfish, the amount was neither too much nor too little, and the fried food was freshly fried! And the plate was hot! The soup stock in the bowl was indescribably delicious! It was the first time I was able to finish all the food at a ryokan. The hot spring in the room was also so refreshing that I was able to enjoy it six times before leaving! I want to come back to Kai Enshu again soon.
