“Great place to stay for two or three nights.”

A place with a beautiful view and the opportunity to walk. Three kilometers to the city center but the hotel always found a way to take you to the train station with its bus. Many great temples around. The food is exceptionally good. Onsen with a nice view.

The hotel is close to the seaside with beautiful views, and the facilities are excellent, including on‑site parking and a public hot spring.

“A place where you want to come back 💕”

It’s my second time here and I’ll be definitely back again. Open air hot spring is amazing, breakfast buffet - something worth waking up for. I booked a wrong room because i didn’t look much, just wanted it to be this hotel - very kind staff changed my room to another one. I also forgot my jacket, but already got back to Osaka where I live - they said that they will send it to me via post! Last but not least, Tanabe is a magical place - beautiful nature and beautiful ocean, while still remaining not crowded with tourists. Will be back soon!!!!

Beautiful sunset Seaview

“We booked a corner suite - handicap accessible which super spacious, with great view!”

Excellent both quality and choices of food.

“Nice, clean traditional hotel for a quiet night”

We stayed here one night before leaving for the Kumano Kodo trail. The staff were really lovely. A couple spoke great English but most didn't speak any. They graciously organised a vegetarian dinner for me, which I leaned I should have requested in advance (oops). It's a slightly older hotel and seems to cater to an older crowd. I was able to cover my tattoos to use the onsen, but it seemed like maybe this is allowed on a case by case basis? The room was clean and comfortable, and the dinner was a very elaborate traditional Japanese meal. We walked the 50 minutes from Kii-Tanabe station and it was a fine and easy walk. The views from the room were lovely.

Lovely ocean views. Shuttle to and from station. Breakfast and dinner included and excellent. Gateway to Kumano Kodo

Amazing views, beautiful food and rooms.

“Incredible service, delicious food and attentive staff. Excellent”

onsen is the best also have the free noodle after dinner.

The rooms were comfortable, the views to the ocean were magnificent, and the staff went out of their way to be incredibly helpful. A lovely old fashioned hotel.

“Traditional spa hotel by sea with free shuttle”

Experience of staying at a traditional spa hotel by the sea. Staff very friendly and helpful. Good onsen on top floor including outdoor pool with views of sea/bay. Comfortable, quiet room with tatami flooring and futons. Good breakfast selection. Hotel shop good selection of clothes and gifts. Free shuttle bus between train station and hotel - reserve by emailing/messenging hotel before arrival, and at reception during stay. Current timetable: 14:40 station to hotel; 10:00 hotel to station. Interesting walk round coast from hotel to cape and shrine on island. From station pleasant exploring central Tanabe, including shrines, traditional shops, beach, Aikido museum.

Loved the onsen and the complimentary Japanese dinner and breakfast When booked at price I was expecting just a room Got so much more loved it

“It's a lovely hotel, with a chic design reminiscent of the 1960's.”

The Dinner and Buffet Breakfast were excellent. The food was fresh and well presented. If you like fish like I do, you will enjoy your stay. If you have tattoos it is best to discuss what time is best to visit the onsen with the front desk before bathing.

“Lovely views, bath and meals with friendly staff!”

The view from our room was lovely and there were the many friendly staff.

“very comfortable ….well fed!”

obviously a date property but everything was very well kept …clean and neat.

“Really loved this cosy, comfy hotel in Kii Tanabe!! Highly recommend”

We were lucky to get room 409 which was the mixed Japanese/western room. The room was huge with a wrap around balcony off three of the rooms with large windows and sensational views across the bay and over to the island. We closed off the Japanese section of the room as there were only two of us and we still had a large bathroom, lounge room, bedroom with big comfy twin single beds. Loved the rooftop onsen with views and the breakfast. So much to love about this place

Perfect hot springs Good dinner and breakfast

“Awesome stay. Thanks so much!”

The staff were really friendly and helpful. The food was nice and the breakfast buffet was nice. The view at the room was awesome and Tenjinzaki was just a short walk away. The hotel prepared antibacterial spray for every room which I appreciated. The onsen was a cosy one and I enjoyed the outdoor bath better. Needed amenities were all provided. The only thing was the location was a distance away from Kii-Tanabe station. We didn’t know that a hotel shuttle was available and so we walked all the way to the hotel. But it was a nice walk. And they even provided us with a simple onigiri the next day for our trek. It was a nice surprise. The sake sold at the hotel souvenir shop was also really good too. Overall, I definitely would recommend the place and if I have the chance, will visit again!

“Very rejuvenating after long travel”

The onsen and the food was great
