When I mentioned going to Wakayama for an overnight stay, my coworkers all ask if I went to Shirahama for the beach or a hot spring. I didn’t, I went to Wakayama City. It was during Golden Week but the city and main station didn’t feel crowded at all since it’s definitely more out in the countryside and not much of tourist destination within its own prefecture. However, this was just right for us as we wanted a low key trip to somewhere close but new. We mainly spent our first day enjoying the Kishigawa train line, famous for the story of Tama the cat station master. If you like trains, cats, or small local shrines, I would recommend getting a day pass and spending the day visiting the current cat station masters (Nitama and her apprentice Yontama). There are four unique trains with different decor and themes and it was fun riding them and looking at the beautiful countryside of Wakayama from the windows with good weather. The area we stayed around had lots of small local restaurants and we found a delicious Spanish cuisine restaurant with excellent service called Staub Kitchen OLMO.
We didn’t spend much time in Wakayama city, but next time I’d like to visit Wakayama Castle as well as the park and museums around it. It’s a walkable city but also has some buses going towards more popular areas.

Wakayama was never on our list until we heard about Kumano Kodo. It was an underrated city where there were many interesting places to explore. We would recommend doing the Kumano Kodo - Nakahechi route walk for anyone who loves hiking. The minimum of 4 days were required for this route, as we did. We spent 2 days hiking from Takijiri-oji near Tanabe city to Kumano Hongu Taisha. Then, we explored Yunomine Onsen which was one of the oldest onsen town in Japan and Kawayu Onsen where we could dig our own onsen pool on the river bank. We also recommended doing a boat tour down the river to Kumano Hayatama Taisha as it was part of the UNESCO world heritage site. Lastly, to complete the 3 grand shrines, we visited Kumano Nachi Taisha and the Nachi falls, the tallest fall in Japan, on our last day. The logistics were not difficult. We took the Kuroshio train to and from Wakayama and local bus in Hongu area.

Wakayama castle was very good, not only the view from the top of the tower but also the garden and tea room and secret corridor! You can also enter into the museum if you show the Wakayama castle entrance ticket. The zoo is ok for kids but not so much for grown up!

It’s one of the less popular destinations and thus prices are really nice. A lot of fresh fruits and sea is reasonably clean. If you don’t have time to go to Shirahama, Wakayama city is the second best. Isonoura beach has white sand.

This is our first time to Wakayama and we fell in love with it! It’s a quiet town but people are friendly. Easy to drive to various places of interest like Shirahama. We see more locals than foreign tourists in Wakayama and really love the tranquility of this place. I will definitely spend longer time in wakayama if I come back to Osaka again 👍

Wakayama city prioritizes automobiles. Cars are everywhere.
Wakayama city prioritizes automobiles. Cars are everywhere. Bus service is excellent. Walking is unpleasant because of the frequent need to give way to the few cars rolling through 6 lanes of asphalt.
In contrast, that makes the stroll around the castle a particularly nice experience. The gardens around are well maintained, very pretty. Every sunset is a new experience.
If you have a car, then sure, spend a night there, maybe two if you want to spend some time around Wakanoura. But then speed away to where the real magic of Wakayama happens: Koyasan, Kumano Nachi, Kumano Hongu,...
Stayed at numerous Granvia hotels in our travels throughout Japan and this was very typical - courteous staff, attention to details and great customer satisfaction protocols in place. We opted for the morning breakfast and the selections ( both western and Japanese were good). The hotels adjoins a large Dept store and provides access to the Dept Stores restaurants on the 5th floor. Location next to the train station which also has a bus terminal makes it makes it very convenient to get around.
We surely struck gold with this guest house & its owners. They were so friendly, warm & welcoming. Also, they responded super fast. The space was very clean & the fact that we didn’t have to wash our dishes was very convenient. Check-in was flexible & we got detailed info/recommendations tailored to our needs. My only regret is that I didn’t book a longer stay. Upon revisiting Japan, Tsukiji Hostel will be on my itinerary for sure ✨✌️😎
Hiroko and Kazu (the owners) are amazing people that were very kind and ready to help. Hiroko even picked me up from the train station! They offered a lot of very helpful information for my stay at Wakayama. I'm very happy to have followed their advice as that made my visit a wonderful one! They speak English, French, and Japanse! Would definitely stay again and would very much recommend staying at this hostel!
This is a special hostel in Wakayama. Hiroko is so inviting and went over maps and the free bike rentals when we arrived so that we would know more about fun activities. The hostel is beautiful and clean. We loved staying there. We also really enjoyed being in Wakayama City and biking around to the castle, gardens and exploring around. It was a great location!!
The traditional Japanese room is very cozy and spacious, the garden and cafe are nice, the owners are sweet and their pets are super cute! It's hard to imagine a better place to stay for a surfing trip. You are sharing a house with a family, so this is not a guesthouse for late night partying, but there are some great izakayas a couple of train stops away.
View of the Wakayama Castle 🏰 is amazing from our 18th floor room.
Took a bus from Wakayama station to the hotel opposite the castle, taking maybe 7 minutes. Very easy.
Restaurants and combini store available in the building.
Decided to stay 2 extra nights, negotiated with the staff and happy we didn't have to move rooms. Thank you so much for that.
Near the hotel, although a word of advice would be to go out from the central gate of Wakayama Station, turn right and take the elevator down to rhetorical basement, go through the underpass and take the lift up on the east side to get to the hotel. Serves a good breakfast. Rooms were big and beds were very comfortable!
The hotel is just beautiful and loved the facilities. The onsen is just great! I love how convenient the location is, as tge train station is just down the hotel, and there are also restaurants and a supermarket on the ground floor. The breakfast was also good.
cannot praise this place enough! a great stay, i will be back again!
the team were amazing, the facilities were lovely and homely, the shower was great, the location was great, the bed was comfortable. one of my favourite places i've stayed in japan so far!
Pleasantly surprised by the amenities in the room. There was a TV by the bathtub, large projector screen (although I didn't use it), and the room was very spacious! The room was decorated with Japanese decor, which was a nice touch
Exceptional view, fantastic breakfast and extremely friendly staff despite our very low level Japanese.
Rooms appear to have been renovated since some of the pictures posted - very modern yet beautiful, spacious, and comfortable.
The hotel is in a great location with stunning sunset views over the marina. We visited the fish market beside the hotel and enjoyed a fresh seafood bbq beside the ocean and the tuna filleting show was fun to watch.
The location is good. Easy access to JR Wakayama and Wakayamashi Station by bus. The staff is very kind. We found two convenience store just a walking distance from hotel.
