Hotels near Onigajo Castle, Kumano

Rather than repeat how wonderful this guest house is, I thought I would describe what is available to do in the area. The guest house is a 15 minute walk to Omibare train station and 25 mins to Komanoshi train station. The walk from Odomari station is through quaint back streets without traffic. Between the guest house and the Komanoshi station, are three impressive walks. (1) the Matsumoto Komoano Kodo pass over the "toge", with a view out over the coast and town (2) the coastal cliff walk with its impressive limestone rock formations (3) the direct path through the mountain tunnel with next to no traffic. From Komanoshi station it is also possible to catch a bus to Sanmaida and do the 2.5 hour hike to a lookout and through the impressive rice paddies. Also part of the Komano Kodo trails. It is recomended to get bus schedule and trail map from the information center at the Komonoshi train station. There is also a beach close by that we did not have time to explore. I recommend staying for at least 2 days.

The interior of the hotel was 100 % my cup of tea! Surprisingly very spacious and very nicely designed with lovely scent. The bed was extremely comfortable. The staff were great and I’d love to come back.

Excellent location for Kamono Kodo. Small room with beautiful views of the sea. Breakfast and dinner were good. Staff did not speak much English but translate apps worked fine when needed. We came and went from nearby Odomari station and after checking in we did loop walk over the pass and around the coast walk without packs in about 2 hours

The location is superb! It’s about 5 minutes walk from the JR train station. And just 3 minutes away from the famous Lion stone (狮子岩）by the beach. The room is small but very quiet and comfortable. Staffs are very friendly! Very nice breakfast!

It is a very unique house filled with memories from the childhood of the owner. I had great fun playing super famicom and having wonderful conversation with the host and another guest. I only stayed for one night as i am walking the kumano kodo pilgrimage, wish i could spend longer time here.
