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,...
Coming from Kansai airport this was the best traditional indulgence of Japan we could have wished for!! Just about an hour away from the airport we got immediately indulged with a traditional Japanese experience. A seaside view room really is a seaside view and Kada is an authentic Fishery town. The staff is so friendly and helpful it's heartwarming. The traditional food is an experience by itself for dinner and especially breakfast.
The property is in a great location, it's very 70's style. Loved the big bath over looking the water. Rooms were big and clean. The Japanese bakery downstairs had the yummiest food. It had two restaurants in hotel, but due to price we ate elsewhere. We had come to try onsen only 100 meters down rd, but unfortunately my husband had a small tattoo on his shoulder so they said he couldn't enter. But the onsen is very close.
I could not find any reason to deduct a score because I love everything about this hotel.; the spacious room with large window, the room facilities, the cleanliness, the tasteful interior design, the public hot pools, the helpful and cheerful staffs, and last but not least, their superb location. And there was also one small thing that I really like, their aromatic shampoo. I even bought a few bottles, glad they sold it.
Hiroko and Kazu (the owners) are amazing people that were very kind and ready to help. Hiroko even picked me up from the train station! They offered a lot of very helpful information for my stay at Wakayama. I'm very happy to have followed their advice as that made my visit a wonderful one! They speak English, French, and Japanse! Would definitely stay again and would very much recommend staying at this hostel!
The room was spacious and all facilities were immaculate. There are lots of nice details that make it feel like home. The hosts are fabulous and eager to share information about getting around. They both speak English quite well. I really appreciated the ride to and from the train station. The front door locks securely. Use of bicycles was nice too. It’s not far from Wakayama Castle.
Great location and amenities for the cost. Staff was very kind and there were Google translated instructions in many languages for guests who do not speak Japanese. Very clean and equipped with good basic amenities in the lounge (fridge, hot water kettle, TV, etc.). Love the Japanese floral wallpaper decor theme they have going. Thank you for the lovely stay!
View of the Wakayama Castle 🏰 is amazing from our 18th floor room.
Took a bus from Wakayama station to the hotel opposite the castle, taking maybe 7 minutes. Very easy.
Restaurants and combini store available in the building.
Decided to stay 2 extra nights, negotiated with the staff and happy we didn't have to move rooms. Thank you so much for that.
Near the hotel, although a word of advice would be to go out from the central gate of Wakayama Station, turn right and take the elevator down to rhetorical basement, go through the underpass and take the lift up on the east side to get to the hotel. Serves a good breakfast. Rooms were big and beds were very comfortable!
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.
The location as amazing, literally at the station. They offered a complimentary drink on the rooftop at night. The room is surprisingly big and comfortable. It attaches itself to a major shopping mall. I lost my wallet and it was found because i had my hotel card in there!!!
Great location where you can see the river on your bed, walkable distance to multiple metro stations.
Like the vibe in this place, chill and comfortable while you can feel the vitality of the city.
Very convenient location, a five-minutes walk from Wakayama Station. Very friendly staff. I also liked the bento sale in the first floor, and around 4 pm you can get discounted ones.
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.
The staff was accommodating and friendly, a very nice to stay in a japanese house. The owner of the guest house offered to teach us to surf for free. Highly Reccomended.
It's a sentral hotell close to everything you need. The breakfast was wonderful, and the view from the 11th and 12th floor was amazing. You could see all of Wakayama city.
The location is good. Easy access to JR Wakayama and Wakayamashi Station by bus. The staff is very kind. We found two convenience store just a walking distance from hotel.
