The spa was wonderful. There were wrap-around towel-like things that, as a foreigner, I wasn’t sure how to use. But me and my kids were not comfortable dipping in the outdoor onsen completely naked so we wore the wrap-around and dipped since swim suits are not allowed. I told it to the staff and she was kind and gentle and said it’s okay, that I just put the wet wrap-arounds with the used towels. The staff were warm and one even spoke English so it was welcoming for us English speakers.
Everything was great and smooth. I booked the hotel on a last minute rush because we went there on a whim and didn’t read much about the inclusions etc, and didn’t know that I reserved without breakfast included so it’s a shame because the view at the lobby was excellent. We could have just included breakfast when we got there but it’s cheaper online so we just skipped breakfast since we were vegetarians anyway and probably not much choices for us so it probably won’t be worth it but I’m not sure.

First day in Japan to rest after long flight to Kansai Airport in our 21 day tour of our 4th trip to Japan. Perfect one night rest stop before or after long haul flight to/from Kansai.

We love the location of this hotel just 5mins walking distance from the Wakayama station and Bus station. It is near a mall so it's easy for us to find an atm. The hotel provides breakfast, though it is the same menu most of the days We feel it's an added advantage to get us to kick start the day. We are not picky eaters. The bed is comfortable, though it is small but it is what we expected in Japan. No surprise. Staff are helpful when we want to drop our luggage before check in. Overall I will stay here again .

Great hotel just a couple blocks from Wakayama Station. I only stayed one night and chose it for the proximity to the train station, but for a solo traveler, the room design was perfect, nice little sitting area, big window and a lot of natural light, all the amenities you could possibly need, quality pajamas and sandals, and extra towels, which I always appreciate. Onsen open both late and early (my train was delayed by a typhoon so I didn’t arrive until 1am and the onsen was still open). Staff was kind, friendly and efficient, especially considering my super late arrival. There were laundry facilities and vending machines. At first I thought the bed seemed firm but I slept great. Breakfast was really nice, if you’re trying to eat healthy there was a big bowl of fresh lettuce, plus steamed broccoli and tomatoes for salad, grilled sardines, eggs, miso soup and pickled vegetables. But also sausage and pastries and fun stuff like that. Breakfast started at 6:30am, so helpful if you have an early train. I would absolutely stay here again!

Wakayama has a wonderful castle and museum that was sparsely attended. It was a nice change to have the place to yourself so you could take your time at the exhibits. We chose to come here as the city was close to Kansai Airport for our return flight. We did not explore the regional trails which I believe are wonderful. If only visiting the city, a stay of 2 days is sufficient.

When I mentioned going to Wakayama for an overnight stay, my coworkers all ask if I went to Shirahama for the beach or a hot spring. I didn’t, I went to Wakayama City. It was during Golden Week but the city and main station didn’t feel crowded at all since it’s definitely more out in the countryside and not much of tourist destination within its own prefecture. However, this was just right for us as we wanted a low key trip to somewhere close but new. We mainly spent our first day enjoying the Kishigawa train line, famous for the story of Tama the cat station master. If you like trains, cats, or small local shrines, I would recommend getting a day pass and spending the day visiting the current cat station masters (Nitama and her apprentice Yontama). There are four unique trains with different decor and themes and it was fun riding them and looking at the beautiful countryside of Wakayama from the windows with good weather. The area we stayed around had lots of small local restaurants and we found a delicious Spanish cuisine restaurant with excellent service called Staub Kitchen OLMO.
We didn’t spend much time in Wakayama city, but next time I’d like to visit Wakayama Castle as well as the park and museums around it. It’s a walkable city but also has some buses going towards more popular areas.

Wakayama was never on our list until we heard about Kumano Kodo. It was an underrated city where there were many interesting places to explore. We would recommend doing the Kumano Kodo - Nakahechi route walk for anyone who loves hiking. The minimum of 4 days were required for this route, as we did. We spent 2 days hiking from Takijiri-oji near Tanabe city to Kumano Hongu Taisha. Then, we explored Yunomine Onsen which was one of the oldest onsen town in Japan and Kawayu Onsen where we could dig our own onsen pool on the river bank. We also recommended doing a boat tour down the river to Kumano Hayatama Taisha as it was part of the UNESCO world heritage site. Lastly, to complete the 3 grand shrines, we visited Kumano Nachi Taisha and the Nachi falls, the tallest fall in Japan, on our last day. The logistics were not difficult. We took the Kuroshio train to and from Wakayama and local bus in Hongu area.

Wakayama castle was very good, not only the view from the top of the tower but also the garden and tea room and secret corridor! You can also enter into the museum if you show the Wakayama castle entrance ticket. The zoo is ok for kids but not so much for grown up!

It’s one of the less popular destinations and thus prices are really nice. A lot of fresh fruits and sea is reasonably clean. If you don’t have time to go to Shirahama, Wakayama city is the second best. Isonoura beach has white sand.

This is our first time to Wakayama and we fell in love with it! It’s a quiet town but people are friendly. Easy to drive to various places of interest like Shirahama. We see more locals than foreign tourists in Wakayama and really love the tranquility of this place. I will definitely spend longer time in wakayama if I come back to Osaka again 👍

Room booked for one night, 8th floor.
Clean hotel room for two people, 2 double beds (each approx 120 cm wide), bathroom, separate toilet and amenities.
Limited view from hotel room.
It was exactly as it looked in the photos.
Good complimentary japanese breakfast buffet. Buffet staff are very friendly.
Close to the trainstation, restaurants and shops.
Car parking is situated opposite to the hotel 1000 Yen/24 hour rate.
We had a very enjoyable time here. My husband and I made use of the lovely area downstairs which turns into a small quiet bar at night. We had the best local Gin here which we ended up ordering on Amazon Japan to our last hotel to take home. Very cool design which I loved! Our teenage girl enjoyed the extra space downstairs for some computer time. A public bath next door which gave us an amazing local experience.
There is an Onsen and it was my first experience. Very nice that it was inside the hotel. There were freebies like ice cream, chocobar, soup for supper, 24 hours coffee, free Landry machine etc. Very polite staff as everywhere in Japan. It is near the central bazar and bus and train stops.
Requested a room with good view and was given a top floor facing the wakayama castle, fantastic.Good checked in and very good breakfast.
Although the hotel is between the 2 train station but nice weather so able to walk to the hotel.
The property is very close to the Wakayama station, it’s located over a mall with supermarket. Breakfast offered both Japanese and occidental food, all good.
