Hotels near Kumano Hongu Taisha, Tanabe

We loved everything! The guesthouse is very cosy and the personell is very friendly and helpful. We appreciated free coffee, the and rice. Perfect!

The family running this guest house was so welcoming and made our stay an absolute pleasure. Delicious food (dinner and breakfast) and great facilities (incl. onsen) in a beautiful natural environment.

the house was so eclectic and authentic. My kids and I absolutely will not forget our evening in this house!

Comfortable, a very good place to rest especially after a hike. I will stay here again. All the staff are friendly and very helpful! Special shout out to Thiri Win! You were superb! 👍🏻

This is a perfect place to stay. If I come back to Japan, I will stay here again. I regret I only stayed 2 nights, more would be better :) The owner was very nice, cheerful and always with a smile on his face. I felt the most relaxed in this minshuku during my whole stay in Japan so far. I had a great time. Good starting point for several kumano kodo sections, or you can take the bus to others or back. There is an indoor onsen, but there is also outdoor onsen by the river right under the windows of this place. This was really a highlight. You can meet and talk to japanese people, which really is enriching. The minskuhu was cozy and comfortable. The road nearby is not busy and you can sleep good. By (my) mistake I booked smoking room, but I had no problem at all and I did not smell any cigaretes or so. Free washing machine, espresso and masaging chair. It is very worthy to order a dinner and a lunch box. Dinner has many courses and you can be sure you will not go to bed hungry. Varies if you are staying more nights. There is always big bowl of soup, many kinds of meat including fish, lots of vegetables, and of course rice or udon. Udon are especially good, the best I have tasted in Japan so far. Lunch bento is tasty as well and convenient, since there are not many shops around (I found one in the town 2km distant, and if you start the trek early, it can be closed).

A simple cabin with everything provided. Shino is helpful, and knowledgeable on Kumano Kodo trekking. She provide us insightful information, and it did help alot. Her café is located nearby bus stop which is very convenient for us to catch the bus right after the breakfast. Not forget to mention about the meal provided, yummy and delicious. Shino also help us arrange for daily luggage transfer, and very responsive on any issues arising. Kudos to Shino.
