Ma Maison Saiko Branch

I stayed one night in the New Wing Luxury Double.The Room was spacious in a quiet location, so I could truly relax.The bed is set on a raised platform and feels like a semi-private space, so I slept very well—an experience unlike any I’ve had before.As it’s a small Hotel, there weren’t many guests, and the dinner was delicious, which made for an unhurried and enjoyable time.

It was my first time at Lake Saiko. I sometimes visit Lake Yamanaka, but this area is not overly commercialized and was very quiet and relaxing. As the name “Saiko Branch” suggests, the meals were delicious and carefully prepared. For older guests, the full-course dinner was more than enough in quantity. The wine, including locally produced Yamanashi selections, was offered at reasonable prices, which conveyed the establishment’s sincerity. We stayed in the new building, and the Room was well cleaned and spotless. The amenities were also well stocked. However, the jacuzzi bath had various special features that surprised us (a treat for those who stay). Perhaps because it was right after a holiday period, we could spend our time quietly without hearing children or loud voices or footsteps. I would like to visit again with a smaller meal portion.
