Comfort Hotel Kii Tanabe

★★ 9.5 (95 reviews)

"Very close to the train station. Room is not big but is good for value. Breakfast is not bad"

KAMENOI HOTEL KUMANO TANABE

KAMENOI HOTEL KUMANO TANABE

📍 24-1 Mera, Tanabe
★★★★ 9.1 (83 reviews)

"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."

"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."

"I arrived at the guesthouse quite late, and they arranged two lower bunks for me. The atmosphere was very cozy, and the fellow hikers were friendly and chatty."

📍 1806 Nakahechicho Chikatsuyu, Tanabe
★★★ 9.4 (70 reviews)

"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

Tanabe Station Hotel

📍 2-1 Minato, Tanabe
★★ 8.6 (76 reviews)

"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"

"The room was very clean and comfortable. Dinner and breakfast were provided, but it would have been even better if the time they were left was indicated."

Kumano Ayukawa-juku

"Very kind boss, specializing in driving, and took me to delicious family cuisine at night. There is Lawson near the hotel. The room I lived in was large and comfortable. I drove me to Kumano Ancient Road Museum the next morning. It is recommended to live here."

SEN.RETREAT TAKIJIRI Hotels in Tanabe

SEN.RETREAT TAKIJIRI

"This is the best hotel in Kumano; the 15-minute walk to the starting point is absolutely worth it. The hotel combines Japanese traditions with modern technology! It's exactly what you'd expect from Japan."

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..."

"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."

"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."

"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."

"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 ★★
"The facilities and cleanliness were excellent, but because it's so new, there was still a strong smell of renovation. I had emailed ahead to inform them I'd be arriving late, and received a reply saying it was absolutely fine. However, upon arrival, the front desk was completely unstaffed, there were insects everywhere, and no code was provided to open the door to the self-service counter. Eventually, the Trip.com customer service actively contacted staff, and after waiting 25 minutes, I finally got the code for the front desk door. Only then could I self-check-in and get the room code. There was no other assistance throughout the whole process. I genuinely don't recommend this place for late arrivals."

Kawayu Onsen Fujiya ★★★★
"This hotel is perfect for a relaxing one day stay. It’s right beside a sapphire-blue river in the middle of the mountains. The in-room onsen is more than big enough for two people and they also have communal baths. They also offer a free shuttle to the start of a stretch of the Kumano Kodo if you want to hike the next day."
