The room though small was well designed, no wasted space. The room was designed with the customer in mind in terms of placement of lights, hanging/placement of towels, good no. of hangers. Same for the shower/toilet. We had two big suitcases. Able to fully open one; semi open the 2nd one. Freebies like onsen, noodles for supper, popsicle, yakult were much appreciated. Room was quiet despite facing the main road.

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 👍

Wakayama city prioritizes automobiles. Cars are everywhere.
Wakayama city prioritizes automobiles. Cars are everywhere. Bus service is excellent. Walking is unpleasant because of the frequent need to give way to the few cars rolling through 6 lanes of asphalt.
In contrast, that makes the stroll around the castle a particularly nice experience. The gardens around are well maintained, very pretty. Every sunset is a new experience.
If you have a car, then sure, spend a night there, maybe two if you want to spend some time around Wakanoura. But then speed away to where the real magic of Wakayama happens: Koyasan, Kumano Nachi, Kumano Hongu,...
We surely struck gold with this guest house & its owners. They were so friendly, warm & welcoming. Also, they responded super fast. The space was very clean & the fact that we didn’t have to wash our dishes was very convenient. Check-in was flexible & we got detailed info/recommendations tailored to our needs. My only regret is that I didn’t book a longer stay. Upon revisiting Japan, Tsukiji Hostel will be on my itinerary for sure ✨✌️😎
Kada Onsen was my first saty at a Ryokan and it was awesome. The view was phenomenal. The Rooms were clean, really nice and big. The Onsen was super relaxing. Breakfast was super delicious and the staff was very friendly and patient with me as a japanese learner :-D . You can get a shuttle bus to the next train station. All in all I had a beautiful stay. I enjoyed it a lot! Thank you Kada Onsen!!
When we arrive at the hotel we got a room with one single (they said it was semi double) bed, we were shocked as we asked for twin (2) beds like our last stey. Then, they started demanding extra money for duch a room. Then, they said the hotel was completely full. Lot's it tricks and lies. It the end we got a tripple (2 beds and one sofa) room. They blamed booking.com for this confusion.
Single room booked for one night, 8th floor.
Clean room with a small skylight window.
1 bed (approx 120 cm wide), bathroom with amenities.
It was exactly as it looked in the photos.
Good complimentary japanese breakfast buffet. Buffet staff are very friendly.
Close to the railway station, restaurants and shops.
Car parking is situated opposite to the hotel 1000 Yen/24 hour rate.

This is a special hostel in Wakayama. Hiroko is so inviting and went over maps and the free bike rentals when we arrived so that we would know more about fun activities. The hostel is beautiful and clean. We loved staying there. We also really enjoyed being in Wakayama City and biking around to the castle, gardens and exploring around. It was a great location!!
Awesome hostel. Had possibly the best coffe I've had in Japan at the bar, as well as some crazy good basque burnt cheese cake. The bar is beatiful and the hostel itself is very nice as well. Rooms are super big. Location is very convenient, not far from the train station and close to Wakayama Castle and a lot of great restaurants.
The public bath was beautiful and very relaxing. The staff were super friendly and accommodating and spoke good English. There was free soba at night and free icy poles for after bathing.
Excellent location, 5 mins walk from JR Wakayama Station and 15 mins walk from the castle.
Very close to Wakayama JR station. The staff was very polite and the room was massive actually. I was so surprised by how large the room was and I booked a standard one. Clean and spacious. They provide pajamas and toiletries as well as a kettle.
This is our second time staying here and it was just as wonderful as the first! Great rooms, comfy beds, good showers and a delicious breakfast buffet. Also, we had a wonderful view of Wakayama Castle. We couldn't have asked for more.
Clean and very spacious room at a very good price. Staff is very friendly and helpful, and quite fluent in English compared to other places. Located right at Wakayamashi station, supermarket and restaurants are just downstairs.
The owner was one of the nicest people I met in Japan, letting me borrow his bike to ride to the beach. The location and facilities are also perfect. Could not recommend more.
