Very near Kii-Katsuura Station but have to cross overhead bridge to pass the train station. More stairs at this minshuku as there's no elevator. Facilities are quite worn but clean. Wished that there's more privacy at the shared baths as the changing area is right next to the door that opens to the corridor. The bath water was quite good tho, with iron content. However no info on bathing etiquette provided so I suggest foreigners read up on Japanese onsen bathing etiquette if you are not familiar. My room faced the train station but I was not disturbed by noise. It was also well-insulated, I think, as I did not feel cold in the room even though the weather was chilly. Yukata provided (surprise). Breakfast was surprisingly good and filling. Minshuku's WiFi was miserable but luckily I was able to connect to Wakayama WiFi.

A good hotel for recommendations
A host family in a small, quite town. You have hot spring here to enjoy. Unlike in Tokyo and Kyoto where foreigners are everywhere, this hotel is in a small city welcoming people back from or prepared for hiking. The room is big and clean. Please relax your body here.

Excellent staying experience.
Quiet facility even it is very close to the train station and local bus station. Great Japanese style staying experience supported by very helpful English speaking staff (aka Mika San ... hope didn’t spell your name wrong :)). Breakfast is wonderful and well prepared by the kitchen lady. I also found from their library a very good older manga series which can’t be found in my country. Some local small family owned restaurants nearby provide good foods in a very reasonable prices too. A larger supermarket about 10 mins away has excellent choices of foods and ALCOHOL at a very very good price. Go for it if you are planning on going to visit this area.

Cheap and cheerful!
I enjoyed the more traditional Japanese experience, the room was small but ideal for me and the owners were super nice despite the language barrier. However, i like a shower in the morning and this place has NO private shower facilities, just a couple of shower heads on the wall with the large bath in.

Convenient and quaint, but smoky
I stayed for one night while visiting a friend in the area. Literally right across the street from JR Kii-Katsura train station - very convenient. There was not a private bathroom in my room, but the hotel is small so there is a low chance that you will be sharing with someone at the same time, if you wish to avoid doing so. The toilet and sink rooms (they are not together) are open all the time, but the bathroom for bathing is limited to afternoon/evening. The staff was very friendly, but equipped with limited English ability. However, some of the signage around the building has been notated with English (e.g. how to use the hot water pot in the corridor to make tea). Tea is available free at any time, and there are some snacks and other beverages (including beer and sake) available for purchase. Breakfast was a delicious Japanese-style meal - freshly grilled fish, rice, miso soup, etc. When you check in, you pick a time that your breakfast will be served. Proceed to the dining hall at that time the next morning and there will be a table with your room number all set with your meal. Main downside for me is that the property allows smoking in rooms. The proprietress gave me a choice of rooms, so I chose the less smoky one. They spray with Febreeze daily, and gave me a bottle of it, but some rooms seem to be worse than others. In just one night, my stuff did not pick up any scent. And the bedding was odor-free. I would stay again.

フロントの対応は素晴らしく親身で女房も喜んでいた。素泊まりの為、食事は外で取ったが、何軒かの飲食店を丁寧な説明で教えてくれた。インスタントの味噌汁やお吸い物、コーヒーやお茶がサービスで置いてあり、電気ポットを使って飲めたのは嬉しかった。部屋の広さも十分であり、ゆったり出来た。たまたま、隣の部屋が空いていたが、もし入ったなら、トイレの共同利用や近さ等厳しかったかもしれない。

從紀伊浦勝站搭熊野巴士便可以去到熊野古道 行山當日可惜天雨路滑有機會一定會再去 遠離繁囂風景優美 真
酒店位置方便位於紀伊浦勝站出口行5分鐘便可到酒店 鄰近有小餐廳 可能是閑日到好多餐廳沒有開門 環境幽靜, 如果要食晚餐一定要預早預約, 我們是三人住房間,尚算寬敞,酒店整潔到滿意,服務質素都滿意 住宿設施,因為要共用浴室和洗手間有點不便,但是熱水茶包有提供
