Hotele w: Wakayama

The hotel's location is very convenient, close to Wakayama JR Station and connected to Kintetsu Department Store. The bus terminal downstairs makes it easy to take a bus to Kuroshio Market or other attractions. Mr. Cao, the front desk receptionist, was very friendly. We paid extra for breakfast, and the only thing to mention is that the breakfast was just average, not particularly delicious.

Wakayama Kobo Hotel is conveniently located, and the rooms are clean and comfortable. Next door is a public library combined with Starbucks and Tsutaya Bookstore, where you can drink coffee, read books, and buy stationery or souvenirs. The rooftop open-air bath has a wide view. Soaking in the hot spring is relaxing and healing, which is the favorite enjoyment of this trip and worth revisiting. Cleanliness: Excellent Breakfast: Simple, Japanese-style, not bad, matched with comfortable and relaxing scenery

It's close to the JR station. If you want cheaper parking, you'll have to walk a few minutes. The facilities are a bit old, and the TV doesn't have AirPlay, but it's clean and spacious enough for two suitcases. Plus, there's free ramen at night, which tastes pretty good. The four-foot mattress is a bit soft, and there's only one pillow. The hot spring isn't very big; it's entirely indoors, but one side has a fan, so it doesn't get too hot. Overall, for around $800 for two people, I recommend it.

The hotel has convenient transportation and isn't far from the city center. Almost all rooms have ocean views, perfect for relaxing. You can take a shuttle, and if it's outside of the shuttle hours, there are also buses available. The room decor isn't old and outdated, it's very comfortable. Luckily, there weren't many people during my stay, so I almost had the public bath all to myself 👍
