Comfort Hotel Kii Tanabe

"Good and clean hotel. It was situated in a good location from the train station"

Sansuikan Kawayu Midoriya

"服务：I’m here to specifically show my appreciation to the staff of the hotel. I forgot my Airpod in the room when checking out and will only stay one more day in another town at least one hour away. The staff from the hotel worked with me with great patience to confirm my itinerary and shipping address. When there is not enough time to make a delivery with commercial services, one of the staff decided to personally take my lost items to my next hotel with no ask for charge. I have never experienced such a kind gesture. I will not stay in any other hotels other than this one the next time I travel in the region. 卫生：👍👍👍 Onsen: 👍👍👍"

Hotel Kii Tanabe

"We stayed here the night before we ventured to the Kumano Kodo. It was perfect for this: it’s located right next to the train station which makes arriving by train and leaving by bus quite easy. Also, the restaurants and izakayas are close by so you can have a good evening with your travel companions. The staff was very friendly, the rooms very clean und the breakfast ok. I’d book again!"

KAMENOI HOTEL KUMANO TANABE

"This is a somewhat old Japanese-style hotel, not quite worthy of a 4-star rating. It seems there are only public baths, no private ones. They don't offer luggage storage for multiple days. They told me to use the coin locker at the station, but that only allows for 7 days, and it only accepts coins."

J-Hoppers Kumano Yunomine Guesthouse

"Amazing jewel in the middle of a luxury onsen spa area. The owner couple is absolutely adorable and they propose three private onsen spot in house! One outdoor and two indoor. Wonderful experience"

"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."

Tanabe Station Hotel

"The location is still very good, but the room is too small... The space planning is very compact, and everything is included. The price is indeed cheap, so the overall cost-effectiveness is very high. It is a good choice for people like us who only stay for one night and leave. The scenery on the Kumano Kodo is so beautiful"

Business Hotel Tanabe Sunshine

"Not bad, although it is a bit old. About15-20 minutes walk from the station But the facilities are very complete, there are slippers, bathrobes, toothbrushes (but very hard to brush my teeth, bleeding) tissues, etc. Breakfast is also included, but there are several options Choose the most expensive to add money Breakfast starts at 7 o'clock. The time I went to the front desk was the uncle. I don't know English, but communication is ok. And give our room just to see the fireworks conference at night"
