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,...
Stayed at numerous Granvia hotels in our travels throughout Japan and this was very typical - courteous staff, attention to details and great customer satisfaction protocols in place. We opted for the morning breakfast and the selections ( both western and Japanese were good). The hotels adjoins a large Dept store and provides access to the Dept Stores restaurants on the 5th floor. Location next to the train station which also has a bus terminal makes it makes it very convenient to get around.
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.
Breakfast was OK. One of the toaster is malfunction not sure why is there . We used another one and is fine. Room size is actually bigger than I thought . I could actually open my 28 inch luggage without a problem at the end of my bed . Which most hotels in Japan budget hotel could not do. The sleeping area and guest floor corridors seems to be refurbished, so a bit better than the rest of the hotel areas.
Great location! Less than 10min walk from the wakayama station (all flat roads, no hills). The onsen was great and you also get some random freebies (free coffee in the afternoon, free popsicles, free ramen at night, etc.). Room is not big but that's normal for Japanese hotels, we did not spend a whole lot of time inside the room so it didn't matter too much anyways. Would recommend this place.
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.
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.
Even though check in time stated was up to midnight, staff had no complaints when we checked in after midnight due to a delayed flight. They also allowed us to leave our luggage with them after checking out as we were going away for a day before coming back to Wakayama again. Staff serving breakfast were friendly and nice. Location was great, only 3 mins walk from station.
- super hot sento with traditional nice showers
- high ceiling cabins, smartly designed
- good location (6th floor of the Granvia hotel at the end of the mall building)
- dedicated and thoughtful staff
- clean
- long shelve for personal belongings and many places to hang clothes in the cabins
- dimmable light
- place looks almost new
- Wifi runs smoothly
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.
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.
Exactly what we expected from previous APA hotel stays. No luxury, but everything we needed. Very firendly and helfpul staff. Probably not excellent breakfast for Japanese standards, but definitely some interesting dishes for us to explore :)
Pleasantly surprised by the amenities in the room. There was a TV by the bathtub, large projector screen (although I didn't use it), and the room was very spacious! The room was decorated with Japanese decor, which was a nice touch
Really good hotel just outside of the main train station of wakayama. The location is perfect conected to the train station and there are lot of atores and reataurants very nearby. The rooms are spacious and clean.
The staff are fantastic
The food is Greek and irritating same thing every morning. Better have normal Japanese or continentals for breakfast
The hotel was over priced Beds not so comfortable
The room was quite big, the tatami on the floor made for a great atmosphere. The kitchen/common room area is accessible 24h. There is a Japanese bath right next to the hostel.
The location is great. just on top of the Nankai Wakayama central train station.
The open air hot spring on the roof is unbelievable!
The buffet breakfast was also splendid.
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.
