Hotels in Wakayama

I am very pleased with my stay in this hotel! The hotel is easy to find with driving, and I could park in the parking garage across at 1000 yen per day. The check in was fast and front desk staff speaks so English and very helpful. The hotel location is excellent and is right across from the Wakayama castle. The hotel is very new, and the beddings and furnitures all in excellent condition. There...

Wakayama Castle is right at your doorstep, and it's super convenient to catch the Tama Densha (train). The location is fantastic. There's a Don Quijote about a 700m walk away, which is great for shopping. The room was clean and tidy. This was my second stay, and I'll definitely choose this place again next time I visit.

Highly recommend this great hotel!!! Clean, big room, super nice view (wakayama castle right outside the window), very convenient location with ¥1000 parking (24 hrs) right opposite the hotel. Breakfast was superb and would definitely choose Daiwa Roynet Hotels in next visits to Japan.

The location of the Wakayama Daiwa Hotel is excellent, right across from Wakayama Castle. If you're staying in the autumn, I highly recommend spending half a day exploring the castle. The hotel's breakfast restaurant offers a scenic view. The hotel itself is very new, and the service is also great.

The location is not the most central, but it is right next to Wakayama Castle, which is a big plus. In the evening, it’s very pleasant to take a walk around the castle area — quiet, scenic, and relaxing. There are bus stops nearby, making it fairly convenient to get around, though buses do not run very frequently. It’s best to check the schedule on Google Maps in advance. On the ground floor, there...

Very comfortable hotel room. Close to Wakayama Castle (our room. An even view the castle). The staff is nice and helpful.

The hotel is right outside JR Wakayama Station, which is super convenient. The room itself is pretty standard for a business hotel, and it was clean enough. It's a solid choice for a short trip.

location very good just beside the wakayama station , just a mins walk....the hotel is link with the shopping mall...staff very friendly can speak chineses very well...i reach the hotel around 12.30 noon they so good can give me check in early and get the room....excellent hotel....will stay again if i in wakayama...in 7th is have a roof top

The hotel is conveniently located just 100 meters from the train station, and the Kansai Airport limousine bus stops right downstairs. There's a large shopping mall directly below the hotel, with plenty of dining options nearby. There was a minor issue with my reserved room, but Trip.com handled it excellently. Overall, it's a very good hotel.

The hotel boasts a super convenient location, right next to JR Wakayama Station and Kintetsu Department Store. The shopping street is also nearby, making dining, shopping, and sightseeing incredibly easy. While the hotel facilities are a bit older, the room size is actually quite good; our twin room was a decent size.

This hotel is super convenient, just a 5-minute walk from JR Wakayama Station. The bus stops are right between the station and the hotel, and you can even buy the 1000 yen Wakayama bus one-day pass right after you exit the JR station. The sofa bed in the triple room was decent, but it was a bit of a shame there were no female skincare products provided. Breakfast was just okay. In September, I visited...

This was the best value-for-money hotel of our trip to Japan. It's super convenient for getting around with the subway and buses right outside, and there are attractions and supermarkets nearby. The room wasn't even that small. Highly recommend!

Free breakfast was provided, but there's room for improvement in the details. The pillows were a bit uncomfortable and too high. Also, the curtains weren't floor-length, which meant light leaked in early in the morning and disrupted my sleep. On the plus side, it's very close to JR Wakayama Station, but I feel like staying near Wakayama Castle might be a better option.

good staff location and facilities

The hotel's location is about a block from the station, which isn't far. The cleanliness and facilities in the room were well-maintained. Service was mostly self-service, which was quite convenient. Breakfast was pretty standard; there's a deli on the basement level of the department store next to the station where you can buy late-night snacks and breakfast for the next day. But for this price, it...

Breakfast with a view starting the day overlooking the timeless beauty of Wakayama Castle. 🏯☕

Room was pretty standard. Clean and decent. Friendly front desk, with limited language skills, they tried to help us to get around. Great breakfast.

Typical Toyoko Inn. Breakfast was fine and the location near the station

Nearby to train station and easy to find the hotel; right along the main road. Provided ramen for supper ; onsen bath was great… breakfast spread was really plentiful. Pudding in room…

Location very good, just walk straight outside the train station. A bus stop is just in front of the inn

Facilities: The facilities are comprehensive, with a public bath on the top floor. I arrived back late, so it wasn't crowded when I went for a soak at night. The only downside is that the room is a bit small, not as spacious as the hotels near Wakayama-shi Station. Cleanliness: Quite clean. Service: The service was excellent. We arrived at the hotel in the morning to check in, and even though it...

I liked the hotel, tasty breakfast, nice interior. I also liked the lounge on the 2nd floor, free massage chairs, ice cream, probiotic drinks. The changing room in onsen is fine, the onsen itself is convenient, well decorated. However, it seemed that cleaning service overdid their job and chloride smell was strong in the onsen. In women zone there are 2 baths with 40+ °C, sauna and 1 bath with colder...

Not far from the JR station, it's about a 7-minute walk straight down the main road after exiting (even with luggage). The hotel entrance is small and easy to miss. The highlight of this hotel is the free ice cream after enjoying the hot spring, and complimentary ramen served after 9 PM. Plus, the breakfast is very rich and delicious.

Nice location (very close to JR Wakayama station in walking distance). The staff are nice and helpful. The onsen experience is good though the area is small but it is hygienic. Free snacks (ice sticks) and massager are nice to have. Room is comfortable and clean.

Smile Hotel Wakayama is conveniently located right beside Wakayama Castle, making it a great choice for sightseeing and exploring the area. Overall, we had a good stay and a pleasant experience. Although the hotel’s renovation and interior are slightly outdated, the room was still clean and comfortable. Considering the price and the excellent location, it is more than acceptable and offers great value...

Breakfast is so nice! It is a good experience to enjoy your meal with the scenery :)

I stayed for two consecutive nights. **Facilities:** It's a budget hotel, but the facilities are complete and well-equipped. There are several vending machines in the lobby. **Cleanliness:** Very clean. If you stay for two consecutive days, it seems they don't actively clean on the second day. **Service:** The front desk staff offered service with a smile.

No convenient store nearby. They refused to let us reserve parking but when we arrived, there was like only 1 other car. No amenities like facial lotion.

The hotel has convenient location, the staff were nice and the room was as expected. Good value

Very cozy and comfortable hotel. The breakfast was excellent. Completely met my expectations!

Situated very near to Wakayama station, off a side street. Room met expectations for the price. Breakfast was included, with a wide selection. Overall no complaints

This hotel is incredibly convenient, right next to Wakayama JR Station. It's new, and the complimentary breakfast is decent and filling. You can catch the Tamaden train (Tama train) to see the cat stationmaster right from Platform 9 of the JR station. Plus, there are plenty of shops and restaurants nearby, making it super easy to grab a bite or do some shopping!

The location is pefect, only 2mins walking to a Shopping Complex, where you can buy cheaper food in the food street. Basically we are going thru the Shopping Complex from the hotel to train/ bus station, a lil bit confused in the first place, but get used to it after few attempts. We couldnt buy the ticket for the movies in the TV from the ticket machine, and the Netflix is not allowable in the room...

Facilities: Simple, practical, and well-maintained across the board. Cleanliness: Good. Environment: The hotel is conveniently located near Wakayama JR Station, with plenty of shopping and dining options nearby. Service: In my personal opinion, the service at this hotel is the best among the many comfortable hotels I've stayed at in Japan. A special shout-out to the lady who speaks Chinese – she was...

This is a great hotel to stay at Wakayama, it’s near the train station and shopping mall. Easy to get foods around this hotels the hotel also provides free healthy breakfast for guest and welcome drinks for 24 hours at the library and you can read book here if you understand Japanese.

Less than a 5-minute walk from JR Wakayama Station, the location is incredibly convenient. The room was spacious, comfortable, clean, and the disposable slippers provided were a nice touch. Although the hotel's breakfast is a simple meal, it offers a good variety of options and feels more modern than Toyoko Inn.

The hotel is located right above the train station, offering a nice river view from the window. The lobby isn't huge but it's well-equipped. The area around the hotel gets pretty quiet at night with not many shops open. Being right above the station makes it really convenient for getting around.

Very nice experience. The hotel is clean and nicely decorated, the staff is very welcoming and helpful. The room was comfortable and quiet. We also enjoyed the sky spa: very clean, very good amenities . Overall a great and relaxing stay.

Right next to the station, which is very convenient. There's a supermarket, pharmacy, and plenty of dining options downstairs. The price is reasonable, and breakfast is pretty good too. Getting here from Osaka by car is quite easy. It's just that Wakayama as a whole doesn't have much to offer in terms of attractions.

The view of the king bedroom allows you to see the river which is great. The skyline spa offers good views and great comfortability.  The only things to pay attention to are the Queen bedroom is quite small and the men spa is too crowded during busy hours

Spacious room, good view, nice outdoor roof onsen, helpful staff, right beside train station

The location is super convenient, with a direct train from Kansai Airport right to the hotel entrance. There's a supermarket and restaurants downstairs, and Wakayama Castle is just a 10-15 minute walk away, along with some highly-rated local restaurants. The rooftop open-air bath was a highlight; I went every evening – it was incredibly relaxing and comfortable.

Near to Nankai Wakayamashi station. Only 5 minutes walkable distance. Basic amenities are available. Breakfast is also good. The staffs are really kind and friendly. Both the railway station and bus stop are near to this hotel and it is convenient.

The hotel is located just before the Nankai train station. So it is very easy to be found.

small but compact room and the location is close to both train station and Wakayama castle. Two supermarkets nearby also. Staff very friendly

Very nice! Very nice! Very nice! Very nice! Very nice! Very nice! Very nice! Very nice! Very nice!

Friendly and helpful reception. Rooms as tiny, equipped with TV and kettle. By the reception there are coffee and ice machine for guest to use.

so goood reccomendedddd , nice and clean rooom , food and stored surrounded, simple jp breakfast

The location is quite good, right by the sea. On a nice day, you can catch the sunset. The room is a bit dated, especially the carpet which is really old. However, they provide free tickets to a nearby hot spring, which is definitely worth trying. It felt like a hot spring with a lot of local character.

Calmnes,quite,relaxing,beautiful views.. Staff are kind,breakfast is good and quality foods..

The location is far from the city centre. If you are not driving it is a bit difficult to find restaurants, except if you wanna eat in the hotel. The location is not far from the fish market, maybe 5 mins walking distance. The hotel looks old but has good maintenance and it has superb scenery as near yachts pier.

Very nice hotel, access to close by onsen/spa in room price included, even for the departure day.

Room is spacious. Electronic check-out process is fast. Breakfast is tasty with tuna, fresh blended juices, different tastes of preserved pulms which is local food of Wakayama.

quite close to the seafood market and there is a hot spring nearby!

The hotel was well located and not very expensive, however the walls were not very clean but overall the rest was fine.

The bed was so comfortable I fell asleep right away. Lol The front desk staff were very polite and kind. Thank you very much.

I had planned to go to the Expo, but Osaka city is expensive, and I'd never been to Wakayama, so I chose this hotel near Wakayamashi Station with the intention of exploring Wakayama Castle. All the amenities were provided, but it was a shame that there were no slippers. There was also coffee and a water server in the lobby. The building is a bit old, but for the price and quality, I guess that...

Excellent, quiet hotel. The bed is comfortable, the air conditioning is quiet. The hotel has been renovated, and all the amenities are new. There's a refrigerator and kettle. There are chairs and a table for working on the computer. The Wi-Fi is excellent. There's a 7-Eleven store nearby.

The room size is acceptable considering the price. Toilet is small , good for 1 person. Seems that there are more locals than foreigners staying there. Free coffee at the lobby. Walking distance to the JR station . Good for budget travellers. Overall not too bad a hotel.

Ok value if you need to live near the Nankai Wakayamashi Station (not JR Wakayama Station), or you plan to go to Kata. The room is perfectly fine for one person, the toilet is a bit small but usable. You have all the amentites you need from the amentites bar at the lobby. The only downside is that there are no shops near the hotel, you have to eat or buy near the station.

Very good location, which is just 5 minutes walk to Wakayama Station and bus terminal, nearby shopping mall and restaurant,

This was the biggest room I've ever stayed in Japan. It was fully equipped and clean, with a charming old-school vibe. The service was excellent, and Wakayama itself is a great place to explore. Highly recommend!

The staff were very friendly. Unfortunately, I couldn't sleep because of the strong smell of tobacco, and the springs in the mattress were sticking out. I asked to be moved to a non-smoking room, but all the other single rooms are for smokers.

This hotel is conveniently located just minutes away from the Wakayama train station. It has very good value for money. We stayed in a japanese style room. It had everything we needed and it was also pretty clean. Overall, I would happily stay here once more, if I ever were to go to Wakayama again

Hotel is located next to the train station in the city of Wakayama. I had a Japanese style room that it is bigger to accomodate 4 people and the room is clean. The breakfast is good that serves Japanese food. Overall it is good.

place is ok: wifi is slow. place is a bit old and rusty (tap drainage)

There was a supermarket nearby, which was convenient, but it was a little far from the station, which was inconvenient.

It's very convenient and clean because it's in the city center. The staff are also friendly. Highly recommended for those coming to Wakayama.

Nice and friendly staffs. We are missing breakfast but it was fine. Good location and clean.

2 years ago, it was terrible....the room was cramped and the bathroom was covered with mold because of the moisture. But! The hotel has been renovated since then! Now I can sleep well here tonight. Thank you.

Quiet room on a no smoking floor. Was a good base for us to explore.

Small clean modern rooms at this typical business hotel.Friendly helpful staff and only 5 minutes walk to Wakayama castle.

Old hotel but value for money on an Onsen hotel facing to the sea. Car rental travellers preferred with free parking and a bit far from public transport/ supermarket/convenience stores.

While the exteriors look old, the room was spacious and newly renovated with a beautiful seaview.

A traditional Japanese Onsen hotel with delicious food👍

Dinner and breakfast are delicious. Nice room too

It was a stunning experience, excellent services and cleanliness, spectacular view of the sunset while sitting in the hot bath. Also very impressed by Japanese style breakfast & dinner and the room. Thanks for the beautiful memories

A luxurious hotel, cozy and beautiful. Friendly staff, excellent service. A delicious dinner in a pleasant atmosphere with a beautiful view of the sea. Thank you for a great stay.

The hotel was really nice. The front desk staff were very friendly and confident, and check-in was very easy. The room wasn’t very big, but it was very clean, and a lot of small details made it feel really thoughtful. I’d definitely come back here again. Wakayama is really beautiful.

I stayed here when I went to Wakayama for work. The room was clean and somewhat spacious, so I was able to relax. It's absolutely fine for a business trip. I'll stay here again if I go to Wakayama again.

The facilities are adequate, nothing special. The hotel's location is convenient. The buffet breakfast is very simple, not very plentiful. However, the staff are quite polite and friendly.

The location of the hotel is good. Very close to the Exit A of the Wakayama JR station. The breakfast is not bad and the varieties are good enough. The size of the room is reasonable

The hotel staff are very friendly. If you drive, you'll have to park in a nearby coin-operated lot, which is a bit inconvenient. It's also conveniently located just three minutes from JR Wakayama Station.

The hotel has an excellent location, close to the JR station and shopping malls. The breakfast was plentiful and nutritious, with Japanese specialties. The room was clean and tidy. I slept very well.

Good place, convenience to get foods.

The room is old but clean. However, even though I had booked a non-smoking room and confirmed by phone that it was a non-smoking room, there was an ashtray in the drawer. There were also about two air fresheners, so it was clearly a smoking room.

It was a cheap stay with breakfast and dinner included. The large hot spring bath with an open-air bath wasn't bad, and the meal was good, but I think it's worth the price. The location was close to Kimidera, so it was good to park and walk. Because the cleaning condition in the guesthouse is poor, It felt a bit uneasy because there was so much dust here and there. Even if it's an old building, I...

The price/performance ratio is very high, the hot spring ♨️ is great, and the temple is right next to it, which is convenient for visiting.

The hot spring baths are quite far away and the front desk staff needs to improve their English listening skills.

The transportation of the hotel is quite convenient. It is not far from Kimitsuji Station. The hotel is mainly used by local passers-by and local Japanese to take a bath in the hot springs. There are not many foreign tourists. The hotel must be very old and looks a little old. The breakfast and dinner are not purely Japanese. It is very rich, but the price is not high. The hot springs are still very...

The hotel boasts a good location, being very close to Wakayama Castle. We stayed in a Japanese-style room, which was clean and pleasant. The front desk staff were also very friendly and helpful. However, the Wi-Fi was extremely poor, and some facilities felt a bit dated. It's acceptable for a short stay of one or two nights, but I wouldn't recommend it for extended periods due to the poor value for...

The room was spotless. The atmosphere was pleasant, and it offered great value for money.

The breakfast was excellent, featuring local specialties such as 'wax-fire grilled fish'. It's a popular choice among many Japanese guests.

Very good, with Japanese and Western options. Clean and tidy, the price is very cost-effective. Taxi fare from JR station is 50 USD, suitable for short trips and transfers. The restaurant on the first floor also looks delicious

It was a cheap hotel, but it was very clean and nice. If I had to complain about something, it would be that the water pressure in the shower was weak and that the parking fee was 500 yen. Other than that, it was very nice and there was a coin laundry facility☺️

I spent two nights with my family during the Obon holiday. There is good access by route bus from Wakayama City Station, and it is convenient to get off at Masagocho bus stop or Prefectural Office Main Gate. There is a convenience store nearby, so the location is good. The staff was very kind and courteous throughout my stay, and I felt very comfortable. Not only the rooms but also every corner of...

Out of the city. More convenient if you have a car. Dated but room is renovated. Lovely view of Saikazaki from my room. The onsets are good.The meals were simple but very good. We are seated in a private room. Enjoyed the stay. Good value for money. They can speak some simple English

Overall not good value for money /experience for the family in this hotel. - Staff was not very helpful and didn't care about the guests' needs. We just arrived after a long & weary drive to the hotel when we were asked to reply immediately upon check-in when we would like the room to be cleaned the next day. I replied the staff 11:00 (because our baby needed more sleep), but he hinted our reply should...

We were a group of four girls! The location was great, and the weather was clear, allowing us to see a beautiful sunset. The ocean was right outside the window, creating an open and airy space. The food was excellent, both breakfast and dinner! Our room was pink and had cute wallpaper! This is an inn we would definitely like to stay at again if we have the opportunity. Thank you very much.

Food was really great, and staffs were kind, patient and friendly.

Nine years ago, I visited here once, and I never expected to stay in the exact same room nine years later. The location and surroundings are excellent, the service quality is outstanding, and the food is superb. Thank you for the wonderful hospitality this time.

Very nice hotel, love the facilities so much Esp the free massage chair n lounge area, felt very cozy We miss the welcome drink at 9pm. Understanding that it can’t redeem back, it’s good to have a option for client , like swap with soft drink etc Overall hotel staff are nice n attentive, food quality is good also

nice service, clean rooms, breakfast is supplied and sent to room in the morning

Simple and basic. Brand new. Easy to get in and out. Lots of privacy with one lift going up and another lift going down. They also do room rentals with 2 hours minimum.

Unexpected clean and cosy hotel, even though a bit far from the train station. Very nice and welcoming front desk staff, love this hotel

Overall: This hotel is superb! Location: It's about a 10-minute walk from Wakayama JR Station. There are restaurants on the south street nearby and a FamilyMart, but generally, the area feels a bit desolate. However, that's perfectly fine. Service: Excellent! You can store your luggage. When checking in, you choose your breakfast and delivery times. We tried Japanese, Western, curry, and udon, and...

The hotel facilities are complete and well-equipped, they even have a curling iron. Self-check-out is available, and there are daily complimentary drinks and snacks. The TV screen is large with a wide variety of content. The front desk staff were very helpful.

The only downside was that the king-size bed was too small; it would be too cramped for a family of three. Everything else was great, and the hygiene was excellent. It's perfect for couples.

It was sudden, but I had a pleasant stay. Thank you very much.

The front desk staff was very helpful.

Stepping into this hotel is like walking into a quiet paradise. The lobby is bright and warmly decorated, and every detail is full of style. The guest rooms are neat and elegant, with pleasant views outside the windows and surrounded by green plants. It is quiet and comfortable, and is simply an ideal habitat for travel.

I was on a relaxing solo trip, but I was a little disappointed with the way I was treated. When I tried to enter the coffee space next to the front desk, the front desk staff treated me like a suspicious person, which ruined my enjoyable trip. I was there for 3 nights and 4 days, but it was traumatic and I was disappointed that I didn't get to go to the coffee lounge even once. I think they should...

Excellent hotel with lots of parking and neat/clean rooms.

Even the single room is spacious enough to relax in. At night, it's pitch black with no lights and it's hard to find the entrance to the parking lot, so I had to make three U-turns on the road in front...

The hotel was very old, however there were rooms that had been renovated and we came because it had a pool, despite it being written that it would be open in the summer, but when we came it said it was not open! My kids are disappointed… The view from the hotel is very casual and comfortable

It's quiet, the food is delicious, the staff is friendly, the hot springs are nice, there's a shuttle bus, everything is good, but there are no convenience stores or shops, only ryokans. There are a lot of places to take pictures.

The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. This is a very traditional Japanese ryokan-style hotel. While it has been refurbished, it beautifully retains its classic charm, almost making you feel like you've stepped back into the 80s. The swimming pool, however, seemed to be abandoned. It's a wonderful place to watch the sunset and experience the peaceful Japanese way of life.

The room is clean and tidy, the front desk service is professional and warm

Simple, old-fashioned, expensive

The hot springs and room facilities are very good, but the location is convenient for access by driving.
