They don't include regular room service and the size of the room was too small. It's not a bad hotel, but the location is not the best.

The hotel is beautiful, and the room was huge. They have one of the best walk-in showers I’ve seen, and the location is great. However, they don’t offer room service.

"Excellent, easy-to-get to hotel with wonderful lake view; very good place to stay and access Kyoto/Uji etc. The only slight criticism would be the swimming pool - access earlier in the day (from 7:00 am ? and maybe keeping it open later than 17:00) would be highly desirable !!"
