Comfort Hotel Kii Tanabe
"Very close to the train station. Room is not big but is good for value. Breakfast is not bad"
Sansuikan Kawayu Midoriya
"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."
Hotel Kii Tanabe
"Was a good night trip overall- the hotel is newly refurbished so everything is new and had a good time! About 10mins walk to the station which is also easy."
KAMENOI HOTEL KUMANO TANABE
"Very satisfied!"
J-Hoppers Kumano Yunomine Guesthouse
"An amazing hostel - super clean, friendly staff, good facilities - and private onsens!"
SEN.RETREAT CHIKATSUYU
"We thought staying at Sen Retreat Takijiri was very good to start our Kumano Kodo journey. The Sen Retreat Chikatsuyu was even more impressive! The size of lodging with living room, the in unit washer and dryer, and prepared food and drink were superb! Especially, after a long journey in the mountain, the hot pot and cold beer were so comforting! We can see everything details has been taken care of. We strongly recommend our friends to stay at any Sen Retreat along Kumano Kodo hiking. We hope you continue to build up along the hiking route!"
Tanabe Station Hotel
"The hotel is for hiking, so as long as you can sleep well, that's fine. But I have to say that this air conditioner is blowing towards the bedside, which is not very user-friendly."
SEN.RETREAT HONGU - Kumano Kodo Gateway
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"

SEN.RETREAT TAKIJIRI
"I truly enjoyef thus accomodation for my Kumano kodo trek. It exceeded my expectations. Everything was new and clean. The hotel is right next to the main road, but there is no traffic at night and I had a good sleep. It's close to takijiri oji or takahara by car or bus. The bendo dinner box was delicious and there was more than enough. Beautifull view over the river and the forest"
Kumano Ayukawa-juku
"This room was my only option after the hotel I had booked failed to confirm my reservation the day before my departure, and it became the perfect start to my journey of exploring all the side trails of the Kumano Kodo Trail. Upon exiting the station, I met Mr. Ota (60 years old), who was there to pick me up. After a brief chat, he gave me a booklet that could only be purchased at the Kumano Kodo Center, and it already contained the stamp for the furthest point on the outer edge of the trail. Today's task in the beginner's area was for an NPC to help me collect the other two stamps, and he also gave me a two-hour hike on the mountain trails as a warm-up for tomorrow's trip. Mr. Ota was very helpful and didn't charge me any extra fees. There was a Lawson convenience store a 3-minute walk from his house, where I bought a lot of supplies and dinner. To my surprise, my room was already overflowing with free-flowing drinks. The room was on the second floor and had a toilet, but you had to go downstairs to shower and do laundry. The room was huge, even bigger than my home in Kyoto, and the balcony offered a perfect view of the valley sunset! The toilet was a bit dated but very clean, and the toilet paper was thick and fragrant! The bathroom and washbasin were fully stocked with toiletries—you didn't even need to open your toiletries bag! Mr. Ota, who had been busy all afternoon, only had instant noodles and meatballs for dinner, which made me feel a little bad. We chatted for a long time after dinner, and Mr. Ota turned out to be quite knowledgeable about China! If you have the chance to stay here, be sure to chat with him. Although it seems a bit far from the starting point, with the Lawson convenience store and Mr. Ota's warm hospitality, this is definitely a lucky starting point for the Kumano Kodo! I highly recommend it!"
Kirinosato Takahara
"What an experience. Tapas and Spanish music by our japanese host. Food was 'subarashi' and the beds and pillows soft and comfortable. I loved the rooftop bar. I would highly rate this establishment. "
SEN.RETREAT TAKAHARA
"Nicely designed, good location, thx for the free drinks"
Ryokan Bijintei
"It was a retro inn, located a little way from the Motoyu hot springs of Ryujin Onsen, and it didn't even have an elevator. 🤗 Even though I couldn't stay alone at Kamigoten or other places, they warmly welcomed me as a solo traveler. 😌💓 The hostess is originally from Sajima, Kamijima Town, Ehime Prefecture, where I live, and she has friends on Iwaki Island, where I also live. Perhaps because it was a weekday, the place was all to myself. 🤗 They prepared a bath and meal just for me, which was such a luxurious and appreciated experience. 😊 Afterwards, I was able to visit the Kumano Sanzan shrines in a pleasant atmosphere. Thank you so much. 🤗"
Nouka Minpaku Mirainouen
"The room was very clean. The landlady was kind and could communicate in Chinese using a translation software. I ordered her breakfast for 800 yen and it was very comfortable. I didn’t know what to choose from the meal. I just ate what she made and I was very satisfied. This B&B can pick you up from the station. I don’t speak Japanese, so I can only walk there. When I left, she drove me to the station. I liked it very much! The bus runs twice a day, and it’s difficult to take a taxi. The pick-up and drop-off is very pleasant."
Yunominesou
"Very oold.school hotel but really appreciate the hotel service. The staff is so nice and the good the great."
Watarase Onsen Hotel Yamayuri
"My husband & I enjoyed staying here with its 70s vibe. Very calm & peaceful. Lovely private onsens with no wait. Koyama-san at reception was exceptional! The Kaiseki dinner was a new experience for us and the wait staff were very helpful!"
Sansuikan Kawayu Matsuya
"The hotel is old japanese style.There is the toilet but no area for showering. There is the new modern hotel near this hotel that have locker .I keep my luggage during the trail. I think they are the same owner."
Otonashi No Sato Wataze Onsen & Cottage
"There is no hot water in the room, and there is no place to take a shower. The front desk for check-in is not in the same room as the room, so it is not easy to find. The hotel has a hot spring, and the hot spring is pretty good."
Ryujin Onsen Marui Ryokan
"It was a very Japanese experience. The owner and staff were very nice and provided excellent service!"
Shimogoten
"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."
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..."
Onsen Minshuku Omuraya
"When there is no choice, I just make do with it. The dinner is quite sumptuous and the breakfast is a bit too much. 😆The surrounding environment of the hotel is good and there are open-air hot springs where you can soak."
Ryokan Sakai
"The accommodation fee was expressed as ､ confusing. ¥ 9,800 〜 Discount if you pay in cash on site. It was different when I went to the site."
