Hotels in Wakayama

Negativ:: Das Doppelzimmer ist viel zu klein für zwei Personen.

Positiv:: Onsen,Breakfast,Supper Ramen

Negativ:: nothing

Positiv:: Rooms are very small but ok for two people. The staff was very helpful. We were late for breakfast and they offered some food for my kids. The hot spring area is small but clean. Value for money.

Positiv:: The hot spring and amenities in this hotel are amazing. Complimentary noodles at night. Microwave, washer, dryer in the hotel.

Positiv:: Das Hotel ist zentral gelegen. Frühstück sehr vielseitig und gut. Abendliche kostenlose Ramen. Onsen, Waschmaschine

Positiv:: Great location and wonderful breakfast and night noodle

Negativ:: The room size as usual in japan, small. And the price, in higher end of comparing to others in the town

Positiv:: Great location, breakfast and night noodle

Negativ:: The room size and felt pricy for such a small room.

Positiv:: Nice property and close to station , nice Onsen and free mini ramen

Negativ:: It’s big dated but I guess they keep it fairly clean

Positiv:: Only a very short walk from the station and a bus stop right outside. The Onsen facilities were fabulous. Free washing machines and dryer was a real bonus. Great restaurants close by and supermarkets also. We only booked at the last minute and it was an xcellent choice.

Positiv:: Gutes Essen, schönes Gemeinschaftsbad

Positiv:: Das inhouse Onsen

Negativ:: Es gibt Zimmer ohne Fenster

Positiv:: Everything, including the noodles at night.

Negativ:: Nothing. It was such a great value.

Positiv:: Mehr Platz im Hotel als in anderen japanischen Hotels. Viel Staufläche. Es gab auch beruhigende Musik im Fernseher zur Auswahl - besonders schön vorm Einschlafen. Es gab kostenfreies Ramen zur Abendstunde, Onsen und Waschmaschine (Trockner musste man bezahlen).

Negativ:: Das Hotel war schon etwas älter, aber alles sauber und im guten Zustand.

Positiv:: Ein tolles kleines Frühstück! Ein geräumiges Zimmer (eigentlich sogar eher ein kleines Apartment), guter Schlafkomfort!

Negativ:: Das Guesthouse ist noch nicht fertig, Es gibt ausser der hübschen kleinen Rezeption noch keinen richtigen communal space, unser Zimmer hatte zB einen frischen Anstrich und einem sehr schönen neuen Holzfussboden, aber auch eine wirklich schäbige Spüle und Vorhänge, die dringend ausgetauscht werden müssten.Wenn alles fertig ist, ist das Haus eine Perle!

Positiv:: Sauber. Nettes Personal. Gute Restaurantempfehlungen. Doppelbett bietet recht private Ecke im Schlafsaal.

Negativ:: Ein bisschen viel ‘industrial style’. Ein Bodenbelag wurde nicht schaden.

Positiv:: The most stylish and full of character guesthouse I’ve ever been to in Japan. The owners are the nicest people and they helped me with everything. Really comfortable and perfect for a long stay!

Positiv:: Friendly staffs, cozy environment.

Positiv:: Staff is nice and room is big, simple cosy Japanese style room, i like the common area which is really stylish and nice to have a cup of coffee, can find all the things you need there! Theres elevators provided, so not a big problem even if you have suitcase :)

Negativ:: Location is a little bit far from the station (1.5km), need to take a bus for ~5mins, from bus stop walk around 3mins to the guesthouse.

Positiv:: Unterkunft ist eine komplette Wohnung, immer wieder nette Aktionen in der Nachbarschaft

Positiv:: basically everything was great :)

Positiv:: Every staff is very friendly. You can find everything in the kitchen. We like the stylish bar.

Positiv:: Large bar and public area. They provide a cute hand-made city map for each guest.

Negativ:: No air-condition at the room. But they provide fans beside each bed. It was still a little bit hot during sunny days.

Positiv:: As a visitor arriving in Wakayama by JR train and intending to explore the Kii peninsular further by train, the Hotel Granvia is handily located immediately adjacent to the JR Station (which incidentally is also the terminus for the hugely popular Wakayama Electric Railway). Wakayama Castle is a pleasant brisk walk away along the wide avenue which runs to the West of the hotel. The hotel has direct access to adjacent Department Stores (Mio and Kintetsu) which have a selection of restaurants/food court and which are open until late, Staff were super-helpful to my various demands/requests; early arrival, extra pillows, taxis, etc. Overall good value-for-money.

Negativ:: Single Room was a bit small and an absence of English language channels on the TV (common when you are a bit "off-the-beaten-track" in Japan) but overall quite happy with my stay.

Positiv:: Staff that attended to me was extremely knowledgeable and patient.

Positiv:: Standort und Preis

Negativ:: Altes Hotell und in unserem Zimmer hat man den Fahrstuhl laut gehört

Positiv:: Die Lage direkt beim Bahnhof ist ideal für Reisende. Die Zimmer sind komfortabel, sauber und gut ausgestattet. Das Frühstück ist reichhaltig und sehr gut. Achtung der Frühstücksraum ist offen von 06:00 Uhr bis 09:00 Uhr.

Positiv:: Sehr verkehrsgünstige Lage am Bahnhof

Negativ:: Das Zimmee war sauber, aber nicht mehr ganz taufrisch und etwas "muffig".

Positiv:: 1 minute to JR Wakayama station. Clean and comfort.

Positiv:: Next to train station. Great price.

Negativ:: Smallish rooms.

Negativ:: It was the day of super typhoon so unexpectedly I had to stay one more night. I could only book the twin room for late check in for second night. Staff were very polite but I couldn't go out in the harsh wind. the staff charged me extra money to stay in the room. I find it a little sad that they charged me for almost one night fee for staying a few hours in the room during the typhoon.

Positiv:: Great service! Great location! Nice City

Negativ:: none

Positiv:: Can't find other better hotel near JR Wakayama Station. Great location, great service.

Negativ:: none

Positiv:: Room is big, just 2 minutes walk from jr station.

Positiv:: Ein tolles Frühstücksbuffet, guter Service, saubere Zimmer

Negativ:: Zu weit von allem entfernt, kein Fitnessraum

Positiv:: The staffs at the reception desk were very helpful and able to communicate in English. The location is ideal for those who desire to visit Wakayama Castle, it only takes 5 minutes to walk to the castle gate. The room is sparkling clean and spacious for two people. The view from 13th floor was excellent.

Negativ:: The staff did not provide me the information about wifi with a password of each room. The only wifi connection I could connect was the main free wifi, which sometimes was weak and automatically disconnected.

Positiv:: Das Zimmer war super schön. Mit Ausblick auf die Burg. Es gab einen Kühlschrank.

Negativ:: Die Lage ist nicht so prickelnd da nichts außer die Burg in der näheren Umgebung ist. Somit waren relativ hohe Transportkosten mit dem Aufenthalt verbunden.

Positiv:: Wahnsinnig leckeres und abwechslungsreiches Frühstück. Sehr freundlicher Service, mit Wasserkocher und der Möglichkeit, sich Tee, Kaffee oder Suppe auf dem Zimmer zuzubereiten.

Negativ:: Everything was brilliant except for elevators - too less and slow for the number of guests

Positiv:: Booked a castle-view room and it was absolutely worth it!

Positiv:: All facilities is good quality and clean. Provided Free smartphone is really useful.

Negativ:: Location is quite far from both JR and local train station.

Positiv:: Great location, awesome views of the castle, Very clean and comfortable!

Positiv:: Highlight: das Frühstück! Lokal, umfassend undie in einem schönen Restaurant mit Tageslicht und Ausblick.

Negativ:: Das Zimmer war doch überraschend klein. Weite Gehentfernung zu JR Wakayama.

Positiv:: Super Blick vom großen Zimmer im 11. Stock auf die Burg. Bushaltestelle direkt vor dem Hotel. Sehr zu empfehlen.

Positiv:: Das Zimmer hatte einen super Ausblick auf das Schloss und die Stadt. Es war sehr geräumig und auch das Bad war angenehm groß.

Positiv:: Lage sehr gut, Aussicht (auf Burg) hervorragend

Negativ:: Kein Obst zum Frühstück

Positiv:: Very near wakayama castle Comfortable and clean room Friendly staff

Negativ:: Location is quite far from jr station, if carry a big luggage then better take bus (1 or 2 day pass for local bus is suggested)

Positiv:: Location is superb.

Negativ:: Room too small.

Positiv:: Location! Near JR station.

Negativ:: Room is small.

Positiv:: Location is superb.

Negativ:: Room is too small.

Positiv:: It was in a convenient location.

Negativ:: Parking was an issue. It was supposed to be a first come first serve basis but i stayed for 4 nights and couldn’t get a reserved lot. Very strange parking policy. Surely they don’t except someone touring halfway to come back and book a lot. Seems to be not much done for relatively longer stay customers. That should be improved.

Positiv:: Close to train station. Extra item available like extra pillow, blanket. Good breakfast.

Negativ:: Nothing!

Positiv:: Location is definitely the key attraction for Comfort Hotel, with its close proximity to the JR station. Good restaurants are within walking distance. Facilities are sufficient and the room is comfortable.

Negativ:: Nothing at all.

Positiv:: Breakfast spread was good.

Negativ:: Rooms were a little small.

Positiv:: Location is very good!

Positiv:: Location next to a seafood market and porta euro and free onsen. Friendly and helpful staff. Free car parking.

Positiv:: Nice rooms with a gorgeous view of the ocean. great hotel with a very nice bakery. Also near the fish market (with a DIY bbq area) and the fishing pond

Positiv:: Reasonable price

Negativ:: The location of the hotel is not convenient.

Positiv:: Staff and food

Negativ:: N/A

Positiv:: Der Pool war riesig und das Essen war gut

Negativ:: Der Gang hat geschtunken

Positiv:: beautiful view of sea

Negativ:: none

Positiv:: Porta Europa (amusement park) & Kuroshio Fishmarket were right across the street. Lots to eat & buy. The staff was friendly & courteous.

Negativ:: Tried to get get early check in but they wanted to charge $25 an hour. The air conditioner wasn't working but they said it was only a heater and would only blow warm air. Thankfully, the weather was chilly and we were able to open the window. However on or third night, mosquitoes!

Positiv:: The room was spacious. Windows could be opened for fresh air even though it was previously a love hotel.

Negativ:: The hotel was a little dated. Cleanliness was acceptable but could be better. Bathroom TV and Jacuzzi were not working. Breakfast could be ordered in advance but the earliest timing of 10 am was too late for us. Hosts were not able to speak English, we have to rely on a translator.

Positiv:: This was a honeymoon trip so we loved that we can stay in former love hotel. They gave us very nice room with the Fujisan painting on the wall - I loved it! For japan standards the room was really big and comfy and the bathroom was exquisite and the bed was really comfy. The staff was so nice, they even borrowed us an umbrela as it was raining :)

Negativ:: We could not find how to do the caraoke - I was looking forward caraoke experience but there was no way how to do that. Also it was a bit tricky to find out how to turn the lights/climatization of. Only one blanket for two people - but we could manage, it was a love hotel after all :)

Positiv:: The massage chair and jacuzzi provided

Negativ:: The room were full of scared pictures on the wall

Positiv:: Very interesting rooms, But next to a temple with tombs……a little far away from jr station.

Positiv:: Spacious room.

Negativ:: Smelly room.

Negativ:: Absolutely a lovely place for discover the beautiful Wakayama

Positiv:: Rooms are big and comfy for 3 of us. The decorations in each room is different. We like the decorations : very Japanese and very artistic. There is even a jackpot machine inside the room! Staff is very friendly and helpful.

Positiv:: Quite big space in Japan standard. Clean.

Negativ:: A special interior design is not for everyone taste. Aircon makes too big noise, we must turn off at night!

Positiv:: It was basically ok. The life size mannequins in the entrance give you a bit of a fright each time you come in, which keeps you on your toes.

Negativ:: It's a slightly run down love hotel. There was nothing terribly wrong, but various things didn't work properly in the room, like some of the lighting and various features of the shower/bath. The room decor was either depressing or entertaining, depending on your outlook. You could get something nicer for what we paid.

Positiv:: bath tub with hot spring water

Negativ:: nothing

Positiv:: Sehr zentrale Lage direkt am Meer Abendessen absolut weltklasse: Sashimi + Lobster + Fugu + Kobefleisch + + + Mehr geht nicht ! Respekt! - Zimmer schon älter - Badezimmer renovierungsbedürftig idem Hotel.

Positiv:: Most of the staff are able to communicate in English

Positiv:: The staff were all lovely, polite and helpful.. The onsen was fun but smelt quite strongly of chlorine. The view was spectacular and the room was very big.

Negativ:: It was very dated . Didn't like the smell of smoke in the corridors. The food was bland and lacked taste. There was plenty of food and it looked great but we were really disappointed by the lack of taste. We've been in Japan 2 weeks and eaten in lots of tiny eateries and had some delicious food and whilst here was our most expensive stay and the presentation was great the flavour let it down hugely . The salad at breakfast looked a day old very limp . The prawn was a grey pink, not fresh looking , the tofu was boiled in a pot of water with mushrooms and had no flavour . The dinner misso tasted like water with some seaweed strips in it . And we were served a grilled fish head ? There's hardly any meat on a fish head . The chopsticks were the cheap wooden ones you get free from 7/11 when you buy food and have to split them . I've never had these in a restaurant , even tiny eateries give you nice chopsticks .It was just not what we expected from the price tag . Very disappointing.

Positiv:: Very friendly staff. Seaview is spectacular. Onsen is small but quiet and comfortable.

Positiv:: Typisches Onsen, traditionell

Negativ:: Zimmer waren etwas klein, Klimaanlage funktionierte nur mit viel Lärm.

Positiv:: Very pleasant and comfortable Japanese style room. The onsen was fantastic. The views were spectacular.

Positiv:: I travelled one month in Japan. And I spent 3 wonderful nights in this hotel. Everything was perfect... Staff exellent, very helpful, speak very well English... I return to Japan next year in Japan and I will return in this hotel. During my month in Japan, Tokyo, kyoto, nara this hotel is my best memory... Thank you for the shuttle. Thank you for your hospitality.

Negativ:: Nothing

Positiv:: View from room and onsen. Spacious room

Negativ:: Far from train station if you travel without car

Positiv:: Lovely location, staff were helpful & friendly. View from the lounge would have been excellent if the coach parking space wasn't in the way! Food was OK but could have been better for the price.

Negativ:: They had fitted a bathroom in the room in too small a space which made it awkward to use.

Positiv:: Breakfast in large dining room overlooking the bay, good

Negativ:: Facilities are old, tired looking ...

Positiv:: eigentlich eher nichts.

Negativ:: Diesem Teil Japans sieht man an, daß die Freude an und der Stolz auf die eigene Kultur deutlich abgenommen haben. Verfallende Häuser, teils schmutzige und vermüllte Geschäfte und unlustiges Personal (nicht im Hotel allerdings!) werden durch eher mäßigen bis schlechten Straßenzustand ergänzt. Mini-Onsen im Hotel und lärmende Gäste bereiteten kein Vergnügen und nicht die im Onsen erwartete Entspannung.

Positiv:: It is very tranquil and by the seaside. Splendid to see the beautiful sunset while having an Onsen bath.

Negativ:: The free bus ride service from the hotel to Kada station was too limited. Only 2 rides available in the morning. For return you need to call for pick-up.

Positiv:: Near to train station & 7-eleven is just a few step away from hotel. Spacious room allows me to comfortably pack my touring bike.

Positiv:: Second time we stayed at the hotel - after coming in from Kansai Airport. Great location just next to the JR train station. Good breakfast spread. Nothing to complain about.

Positiv:: Best location in Wakayama, esp close to the JR station and spacious room.

Positiv:: Is close to many bars and restaurants. The buffet breakfast is mostly Japanese style but there is bread and jam too. It has all the amenities that you need. In the lobby there is also free water, coffee and cool towels to use.

Negativ:: Nothing bad about this place, the only down side is you have to pay extra for the parking space

Positiv:: The proximity to the station and shopping and the Japanese breakfast.

Negativ:: The large step out of the bathroom is very dangerous.

Positiv:: The hotel was right next to the train station

Negativ:: My partner and I opened the property location link on booking.com onto google maps- and we ended up walking 20 mins away from the actual location with our heavy luggage in the heat. We were so frustrated that we ended up googling the hotel name and found out it was right next to the train station.

Positiv:: Convenient, staff was excellent & so gracious & kind ! Thank you very much for excellent help finding our Granddaughter’s favorite hand puppet animal, she was so grateful & happy! We will always remember the first young staff employee that went extra way to help!!! We will always remember your Hotel service . We will always pray for your success and try to visit your hotel again! Thank you & God Bless you all!

Negativ:: Small. Need more English translation.

Positiv:: Room was very quiet. Close to train station. The price was very good. The staff did their best; it was helpful to utilize Google Translate to help them out. The bed was on the small size for two people but comfortable. A japanese breakfast was included in the price, which was nice.

Negativ:: Thermostat was difficult to figure out, with no English instructions. The lobby smelled faintly of cigarettes.

Positiv:: We stayed at Apa Hotel Wakayama for one night during a week long road trip. Check in was quick and easy. The room was clean and comfortable and came stocked with all the toiletries we needed. Checkout was also quick and easy. I'm 7 months pregnant so my husband went to load the car while I waited in the lobby with our 1.5 year old. He found the car battery had died in the night so our car wouldn't start. I asked the front desk if there was a nearby service station we could contact to get a jump but her fellow desk agent offered to come take a look at it. Once he confirmed the battery was dead he offered to go get his own car from another lot and give us a jump. With his help we were able to get our car started and continue with our trip. He definitely went above and beyond and we can't thank him enough!

Positiv:: Good location and near outlet. It have airport shutter with ¥200..

Negativ:: Nil

Positiv:: Clean and staffs can communicate in English. It’s near Donki and shopping area.

Negativ:: The location is a little far from the train station.

Positiv:: Das Personal war sehr nett in dieser Unterkunft. Sie haben uns abends auch Taxis gerufen, wenn wir eines benötigen. Man muss aber erst einmal mit dem Bus (oder dem Taxi) von der Station aus hinfinden. Von dort aus kommt man zu Fuß zum Wakayama Schloss, für alles andere sollte man wieder in den Bus steigen (Haltestelle direkt vor dem Hotel).

Positiv:: Location

Negativ:: Rooms too small

Negativ:: hohe Stufe vom Bad ins Zimmer.

Positiv:: Staff super helpful

Negativ:: Small

Negativ:: Das Frühstück war nicht gut. Es war sehr teuer im Vergleich zu anderen Hotels und es gab nur wenig Auswahl. Es wurde auch nicht oft nachgefüllt, so dass man nie von allem probieren konnte, wenn man gewollt hätte.
