Hotels with Parking in Hongu

Lucy Singapore

Our lodging is a historic house, more than 100 years old. The house has all of the features of an authentic Japanese mountain home. The floors are covered with tatami mats, and rooms divided by sliding fusuma doors. There is an irori hearth and in the kitchen is an old- fashioned kamado rice cooking stove built into the floor. The house has lots of antiques and yet fully furnished with modern facilities. Manabu San was consistently thoughtful and generous. He goes out of his way to make sure we have a comfortable and well-provisioned stay. The thought that has been put into everything we could possibly need is impressive. This is truly a home away from home. The house is very spacious, comfortable and warm (in the areas where we spent most time). It's a quiet and peaceful house next to the river, you get soothed at night with the sound of the flowing water. Manabu-san pops by our lodge with rice-balls. The rice balls are always accompanied with lovely handwritten notes to wish us well and to ask if anything is well with us! At the verandah of the house, Manabu-san has ready seeds and water for the birds. Each morning you will get up to the sound of birds chirping. The front paper-screen-door of the house has a special sliding window that opens up so that you can watch the bird through a clear screen in your warm bedroom. There is also the washing machine and a dryer in the yard in front ready for our convenience. There are very generous supplies of provisions - really great coffee (instant and drip) and both black and green tea. There are all kinds of snacks which get replenished daily. We didn't cook but we saw supplies for cooking in the kitchen and fridge. Every morning, Mahabu san would bring us really great tasting rice balls! There's ample supply of toiletries and he provides ample towels for your convenience. I read that the house was visited by Yamamoto Genpo Roshi, who is a famous and great monk in the Showa era.

Clare Australia

This was one of the best hotels I stayed at in the Kumano Koda area. It exceeded my expectations from the moment I arrived. The staff at the front desk were very helpful and went out of their way to assist me with travelling around the area. They have a free shuttle bus to take you to the Hongu shrine town. My room was awesome and the food in the restaurant was fantastic for both dinner and breakfast. The best part was the outdoor onsen overlooking the river and mountains and being able to wear a light wrap in it as it was mixed with males next door. The view was spectacular. Some staff were able to converse in English.

Haotian China

The location is great, and room is clean. The most impressive is the service.

Kruthoff Puerto Rico

Very cozy spot on the river bank. Ease of access to kumano kodo trail. We did the Hongu loop trail leaving from here, hiking to Hongu-taisha, then bus to Yunomine Onsen, and then hike the rest of the loop from there. Awesome experience!

Kali Japan

The location is so beautiful. It overlooks the river and is really quiet. The rooms themselves were comfortable and clean. Everything looked new and the owner was extremely helpful.
