A 5-minute walk to Kiitanabe station. Conveniently located for both business and sightseeing
"Booked this place for hiking on the Kumano Kodo Trail. It's near Tanabe Station. The price is right and it's clean. The only problem is that the old man at the front desk is too old and can only communicate in Japanese. However, he prepared a lunch box for us the next day. I'm satisfied."
We reached the hotel on foot from Hongu Taisha Shrine via Ohitsuchi, passing by Yumine Hot Spring Street. It takes about half an hour to walk from the hot spring street. I’m not sure how to get there by car. The hotel environment is very good. It’s a completely Japanese-style resort hotel. It’s quiet and far away. The crowd, the service is enthusiastic, and the hygiene is up to standard. (Note that there are no showers in the rooms, you have to go to the large bathroom.) The hot springs are very big and unique. The dinner is also good. I have a good rest. There is a shuttle bus to the palace when I leave. ( You may also be able to make an appointment) Watase Onsen is worth experiencing!
There were not many people when I checked in. There were outdoor hot springs, separated for men and women. The service staff are very enthusiastic, and there is a young man who can speak Mandarin and is very good. The hotel facilities are slightly older. Luggage can be sent. They can also drive you to the bus stop for free in the morning. But there is nothing around the hotel. It is on a hillside. Get off at Xiatang Peak. There are not many buses.
Amazing service from the moment we arrived to the date of our departure. Staff is very attentive. Food is amazing and presented well. Location is serene and a great change from the big cities. Rooms are perfect and just the type of Japanese village rooms and decor we were hoping for.

Stayed for two consecutive days. The hotel staff was very friendly and could communicate in English. No matter what the problem was, they were very enthusiastic and tried their best to help you solve it.
1. There is a free shuttle bus to Hoshinmon Prince Shrine and Hongu Taisha Shrine every day. In addition, the front desk can arrange a free shuttle bus from the hotel to the bus station.
2. You can ask the front desk to arrange for your large luggage to be sent to the next hotel (hotels that are too far away may need to pay a small fee, but hotels that are very close are free)
3. You can ask the front desk to prepare a lunch box
4. The family's private bath is very clean and comfortable. When no one is around, you can request a private bath.
The dinner food was delicious! A highly recommended hotel!
I thought it was a separate room, but the result was a whole house of space. I lived in a Japanese-style house, which was very novel~
There are supermarkets close before six o'clock nearby, where you can buy some simple ingredients and cook your own food, but the existing pots may not be too large (two people simply eat enough). There is no water dispenser, but you can boil your own water, and there are also tea bags and three-in-one coffee bags that can be brewed.
Very close to the bus station, very quiet after night, there is also a balcony outside the second floor room.
The fly in the ointment is that because it is located on the side of the mountain, it may be necessary to check whether there are small bugs before lying on the bed, and then it is better to sleep after processing.
