Room is not big like most Japanese hotels but surprisingly spacious enough to open 2 big and 1 small luggages on the floor! The room is on 11/F with nice view. The TV has multiple functions like youtube app or casting. Bed is comfy. Toilet is very clean. The shower gel and shampoo are high quality!

Location was really convenient! ”

The location is really convenient! It’s located outside the station, a few mins walk - feels really quick! We got the bus from Kansai Airport, a short 30-40 min trip and was dropped off at the station! The rooms/corridors are a little dark. The rooms are quite basic, has everything you need for a quick stay but nothing special! Breakfast was included which was great for the price, quite a nice Japanese breakfast. Would recommend if you’re having a quick stop over like we did.

The price for one night is not high but the hotel is perfect. Within a few minutes walk from Wakayama JR station. The room is huge compared to normal Japanese hotel. Breakfast is even included in the room rate. It is a buffet style with a variety of food to be chosen. All staff we met are polite and nice.

It was very good value for money hotel for me during my stay in Wakayama. It was less than 5 minutes walk to JR Wakayama and main bus stations. Supermarket and 7-11 were also very close that you can find everything you need. Breakfasts were great too! Many type of food for you to choose, Japanese or western, and also delicious.

Good value hotel inclusive of breakfast. Has firm bed and choice of extra pillow selection. Though on the east exit side of JR wakayama station means the "quieter side" as most places of interest and restaurants are across the railway track, some walking to get to the other side as well as take taxi on the other side instead of paying extra having to go around and across the other side
