Hotel Kii Tanabe
9.4 (336 reviews)

Hotel Kii Tanabe ★★★

📍 2 Chome-7-16 Takao, Tanabe

"comfortable"

KAMENOI HOTEL KUMANO TANABE
9.1 (83 reviews)

KAMENOI HOTEL KUMANO TANABE ★★★★

📍 24-1 Mera, Tanabe

"Breakfast was absolutely delicious! However, it was quite crowded with many foreign guests. The service was excellent, probably because its location at the start of a hiking trail makes it very popular. That said, getting there from the JR station isn't very convenient; you have to wait for a taxi, and it takes about ten minutes. If you're in a hurry, it's a bit too far out."

Comfort Hotel Kii Tanabe
9.5 (100 reviews)

Comfort Hotel Kii Tanabe ★★

📍 47-31 minato, Tanabe City, Wakayama, Japan, Tanabe

Sansuikan Kawayu Midoriya ★★★

📍 Hongu-cho Kawayu 13, Tanabe

"The hotel is just a few steps from the bus station. It also provides shuttle service to drop the customers back to Kumano Kudo. Hence, it is a perfect place to get a good rest and onsen after a long walk. The hotel also serves free drink and snack in the afternoon in lobby area."

Business Hotel B.loom
7.9 (2 reviews)

Business Hotel B.loom

📍 94 Shimoyashikimachi, Tanabe

"The rooms have individual air conditioners, which is great because you can adjust the room temperature to your liking. Also, all the necessary amenities were provided, and I didn't experience any inconvenience. After 9 PM, the hotel staff are not present, and you need to enter and exit through a special entrance with a PIN code, but this wasn't a problem."

"Very convenient location"

Kawayu Onsen Fujiya
9.0 (41 reviews)

Kawayu Onsen Fujiya ★★★★

📍 Hongu-cho Kawayu 1452, Tanabe

"This hot spring hotel is conveniently located. Buses from all directions stop at the hotel entrance. The service facilities and breakfast and dinner are all good. I would like to mention that the person in charge of this area specially helped us to make a phone reservation for the return bus (because we needed to make a reservation). On the day of departure, he sent us to the bus early in the morning and took special care of the bus driver, which was very touching. In order to communicate with Chinese people, a Chinese translator was specially prepared. The service is really sincere, enthusiastic and heartwarming!"

Yunominesou Hotels in Tanabe

"An old hot spring hotel located at the innermost of Tangfeng Hot Spring Street. You need to climb a small slope. Those with suitcases need to pay attention. You should be able to ask the hotel to pick you up. The hotel room is spacious and the facilities are a bit old, but the hygiene is good, the service staff is lovely, the dinner is also a standard Japanese set meal, the large bathroom has open-air and indoor, the water temperature is hot enough, you can recover your physical strength very well, and there is a car to take you to the bus station of Tangfeng Street in the morning."

Shimogoten Hotels in Tanabe

"Escape the ordinary and discover an unforgettable, authentic Japanese onsen experience at this hidden gem, far from the typical tourist trail! Tucked away in a serene, off-the-beaten-path location, this traditional onsen is a rare find for travelers seeking something truly special. My wife, two young kids, and I were blown away by the tranquil, rejuvenating atmosphere during our stay. The owner’s wife, with her excellent English, went above and beyond to ensure we felt welcomed, treating us like cherished guests in their own home. The warm, attentive staff made every moment feel personal and heartfelt. This is not your standard Japanese tourist stop—it’s a cultural treasure for those craving an authentic, soul-soothing retreat. A word of advice for drivers: triple-check the address and stick to main roads to avoid any navigation hiccups. You’ll thank me later! Come for a unique, immersive experience that will leave you refreshed and inspired."

Minshuku Sumiya Hotels in Tanabe

Minshuku Sumiya

"The room was lovely, with a Japanese style. I booked this guesthouse for two nights because I was planning to hike the Kumano Kodo Chuhero route. The owner was very welcoming and attentive. The guesthouse had onsen facilities and offered restaurant reservations, but I was too tired to eat after the hike. There was a bus stop right outside the guesthouse, making it convenient to go to Chikaro-oji, Kyogawa, and Oguchi."

Ryokan Bijintei Hotels in Tanabe

Ryokan Bijintei

"Excellent! 1. The owner is very welcoming. 2. Excellent location, right next to the station. 3. Beautiful environment. 4. I fell asleep to birdsong every night. 5. The hotel's hot spring is very clean. 6. The food is delicious."

Sansuikan Kawayu Matsuya Hotels in Tanabe

"This hotel is okay, it was a bit dingy and the room smelt a little bit of smoke - but I was totally fine with that because you get to use the great onsen at the partner hotel next door (spent my time there), and the area was really nice. I liked it as a cheap option along the kumano kodo."

Mirai Noen Hotels in Tanabe

Mirai Noen

"This was a long time ago, but... it was the worst lodging I've ever stayed at in my life. There was no hygiene at all. I hope they improve it for future guests. There is a separate accommodation building, the master's house, and a detached room. Opposite the main house is a detached room! It feels like a storage shed💦 The entrance is through the farmhouse storehouse. There was food left over from the previous guest, even in the fridge! 20,000 yen a night (New Year's rate) is just too bad! The room in the main house may be comfortable, but the detached room is definitely not worth the fee. I was dying to go home..."

Ryujin Onsen Marui Ryokan Hotels in Tanabe

"Nice little family run Japanese inn. Owner is a lady over 80 years old who still manages the hotel and greets all the guests like they are family. Traditional clean and comfortable tatami rooms which they set up for sleeping while you are at dinner. The wooden onsen is not very big but nice and hot and has a big picture window looking out on trees. Good hearty locally sourced food, very filling unlike some other multi course Japanese meals. Very friendly staff who seem genuinely happy when you try greeting them in in however much Japanese you've learned."

Hotel Kii Tanabe ★★★
"Luckily, I was received a gift from them for their 1 anniversary which is very nice plum. I can share it to my friends in Hong Kong. The hotel is new and you can find many Japanese restaurant by 5 mins walk for dinner. The nice beach takes 5 mins by car. They provide free parking."

"After we checked in, we were headed to Fushimi Inari Taisha and had just missed the bus. To our surprise, the hotel arranged a shuttle bus to take us there, which was incredibly thoughtful. The hotel has just been renovated, so it's very clean. The food is also exquisite. This is definitely a perfect hotel I'd highly recommend."

SEN.RETREAT CHIKATSUYU ★★★
"I was about to give bad reviews due to some poor check-in experience, but everything after check in is so good that compensates this journey. First, the check-in process that brings me with bad experience: it is self-served and there is no any staff. By rights you should receive an instruction email with check-in PIN in advance, which I heard from other guests. However, I didn’t receive anything but Trip’s confirmation letter and I was unable to check in. And my sim card in Japan is just an internet card unable to make phone calls, which means I have no way to contact the hotel directly. My partner and I were desperately locked out of the hotel in the evening, after 7h hiking, with no other available hotel in the mountain. After waiting for over 1 hour, other guests helped us to enter the admin room where there is an ipad to call the hotel (why not make it available to guests without checking in?), and with the help of Trip’s agency, we finally checked in successfully. Then here is the staying experience: so good that makes me almost forgive the poor check-in experience. Each room is a spacious individual house and ours has a garden for BBQ. The food is also self-served, with the cooking stuffs and ingredients in the fridge. It was unexpected that you need to cook yourself (I don’t think it was listed on room info when I booked it), but it’s not bad that Wagyu, chicken, and vegetables are served. The rooms are big and cozy, and you can do the laundry after hiking. Everything is good about the hotel itself, just be aware of the self-checkin process and make sure you get the instructions before that."

Hotel Hanaya ★★
"Facilities: The room is so small that I can barely open the suitcase. Hygiene: It is quite clean. Environment: Not far from the station and very close to Weiguang Road, a food street. Service: The old lady doesn't speak English, so communication is a bit difficult. There is also a charge for storing luggage for one day."
