Onsen (hot spring) was so good. The room size was a bit smaller than American motel chains, but clean and comfortable. Breakfast was outstanding, so many choices and all great.

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,...
The hostel is very warm and comfortable and makes you really feel like home. I arrived in Wakayama earlier and Hiroko-san allowed me to check in early. She’s very kind and accommodating and she suggested good local eats around. The hostel is very clean and organized and space is fully utilized. Notwithstanding, my room is very spacious. You will not have problem with shared amenities. I will definitely stay here again.
Kada Onsen was my first saty at a Ryokan and it was awesome. The view was phenomenal. The Rooms were clean, really nice and big. The Onsen was super relaxing. Breakfast was super delicious and the staff was very friendly and patient with me as a japanese learner :-D . You can get a shuttle bus to the next train station. All in all I had a beautiful stay. I enjoyed it a lot! Thank you Kada Onsen!!
The room was spacious and all facilities were immaculate. There are lots of nice details that make it feel like home. The hosts are fabulous and eager to share information about getting around. They both speak English quite well. I really appreciated the ride to and from the train station. The front door locks securely. Use of bicycles was nice too. It’s not far from Wakayama Castle.
Even though check in time stated was up to midnight, staff had no complaints when we checked in after midnight due to a delayed flight. They also allowed us to leave our luggage with them after checking out as we were going away for a day before coming back to Wakayama again. Staff serving breakfast were friendly and nice. Location was great, only 3 mins walk from station.
My room was superbly clean. The staff used to change towels every day. As for breakfast, it included Japanese dishes and I was free to choose them and their portions. Finally, the hotel is quite close to the central station of the city. It was very convenient to get to various destinations.
The public bath was beautiful and very relaxing. The staff were super friendly and accommodating and spoke good English. There was free soba at night and free icy poles for after bathing.
Excellent location, 5 mins walk from JR Wakayama Station and 15 mins walk from the castle.
Super value. Good size and clean room with fantastic view of the castle. Breakfast is 900 yen per person which is also worth the money, mostly Japanese dishes but they also have eggs, sausages, breads and yogurt plus panorama view of the castle. They had a place for our bikes.
Exactly what we expected from previous APA hotel stays. No luxury, but everything we needed. Very firendly and helfpul staff. Probably not excellent breakfast for Japanese standards, but definitely some interesting dishes for us to explore :)
The accommodation is super close to the station and also to the beach. That is a plus. The rooms have a good size and are pretty clean. checking in was fast and easy. Communication with the owner was also good. Quiet house in Japanese style.
This is a nice hotel for a short stay over. The staff is very friendly and the location is convenient next to a parking garage. The room is spacious, with very comfortable beds and a great view over the Wakayama castle.
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.
Location is near restaurants and across the street from Wakayama Castle. Try to ask for room on the castle side for a great view of the castle. The breakfast was delicious with many western and Japanese choices.
The staff are fantastic
The food is Greek and irritating same thing every morning. Better have normal Japanese or continentals for breakfast
The hotel was over priced Beds not so comfortable
All Japanese female staff and Japanese male staff were very friendly, polite, helpful and provided good customer service. Hotel was spotless and clean; also my room location was very good!
The property is very close to the Wakayama station, it’s located over a mall with supermarket. Breakfast offered both Japanese and occidental food, all good.
The room size was amazing especially for Japan as the rooms are normally very small, the bed was comfortable, the staff were lovely and very accommodating
