When I mentioned going to Wakayama for an overnight stay, my coworkers all ask if I went to Shirahama for the beach or a hot spring. I didn’t, I went to Wakayama City. It was during Golden Week but the city and main station didn’t feel crowded at all since it’s definitely more out in the countryside and not much of tourist destination within its own prefecture. However, this was just right for us as we wanted a low key trip to somewhere close but new. We mainly spent our first day enjoying the Kishigawa train line, famous for the story of Tama the cat station master. If you like trains, cats, or small local shrines, I would recommend getting a day pass and spending the day visiting the current cat station masters (Nitama and her apprentice Yontama). There are four unique trains with different decor and themes and it was fun riding them and looking at the beautiful countryside of Wakayama from the windows with good weather. The area we stayed around had lots of small local restaurants and we found a delicious Spanish cuisine restaurant with excellent service called Staub Kitchen OLMO.
We didn’t spend much time in Wakayama city, but next time I’d like to visit Wakayama Castle as well as the park and museums around it. It’s a walkable city but also has some buses going towards more popular areas.

Wakayama was never on our list until we heard about Kumano Kodo. It was an underrated city where there were many interesting places to explore. We would recommend doing the Kumano Kodo - Nakahechi route walk for anyone who loves hiking. The minimum of 4 days were required for this route, as we did. We spent 2 days hiking from Takijiri-oji near Tanabe city to Kumano Hongu Taisha. Then, we explored Yunomine Onsen which was one of the oldest onsen town in Japan and Kawayu Onsen where we could dig our own onsen pool on the river bank. We also recommended doing a boat tour down the river to Kumano Hayatama Taisha as it was part of the UNESCO world heritage site. Lastly, to complete the 3 grand shrines, we visited Kumano Nachi Taisha and the Nachi falls, the tallest fall in Japan, on our last day. The logistics were not difficult. We took the Kuroshio train to and from Wakayama and local bus in Hongu area.

Wakayama castle was very good, not only the view from the top of the tower but also the garden and tea room and secret corridor! You can also enter into the museum if you show the Wakayama castle entrance ticket. The zoo is ok for kids but not so much for grown up!

It’s one of the less popular destinations and thus prices are really nice. A lot of fresh fruits and sea is reasonably clean. If you don’t have time to go to Shirahama, Wakayama city is the second best. Isonoura beach has white sand.

This is our first time to Wakayama and we fell in love with it! It’s a quiet town but people are friendly. Easy to drive to various places of interest like Shirahama. We see more locals than foreign tourists in Wakayama and really love the tranquility of this place. I will definitely spend longer time in wakayama if I come back to Osaka again 👍

Wakayama city prioritizes automobiles. Cars are everywhere.
Wakayama city prioritizes automobiles. Cars are everywhere. Bus service is excellent. Walking is unpleasant because of the frequent need to give way to the few cars rolling through 6 lanes of asphalt.
In contrast, that makes the stroll around the castle a particularly nice experience. The gardens around are well maintained, very pretty. Every sunset is a new experience.
If you have a car, then sure, spend a night there, maybe two if you want to spend some time around Wakanoura. But then speed away to where the real magic of Wakayama happens: Koyasan, Kumano Nachi, Kumano Hongu,...
Super convenient location, right next to the Wakayama station. Check in was easy. One of the reception staff is Chinese so if you have no problem if you can speak only Chinese. The porter is very helpful, he saw that we have so many luggage and shopping bags, he came forward to help us, bring all the luggage and bags to our rooms. There is one free coffee at the cafe if you scan the QR code on the TV screen in your room. Also, in the evening, between 7 to 8 pm, there's complimentary curry rice which was delicious.
Stayed at numerous Granvia hotels in our travels throughout Japan and this was very typical - courteous staff, attention to details and great customer satisfaction protocols in place. We opted for the morning breakfast and the selections ( both western and Japanese were good). The hotels adjoins a large Dept store and provides access to the Dept Stores restaurants on the 5th floor. Location next to the train station which also has a bus terminal makes it makes it very convenient to get around.
Beautiful modern hotel. Room and beds were huge (by Japanese standards). Great river and mountain view from my room and from the hotel lobby where we have our breakfast. Breakfast cost Y2200 per person - it was a little expensive for a standard Japanese breakfast spread - but we paid for the view, ambiance and service. Coffee and coco drink was good :)
Extremely accessible as it is 1 min from wakayamashi train station, bus interchange, Starbucks and 7-Eleven.
The room was very nice, clean and comfortable. the facilities were super clean and there were free bike rentals which was amazing! Towels were included and there were enough showers.
The only thing was the lack of a communal space but it wasnt too bad. The location was really good (20min walk to Wakayama JR station or theres a bus that takes you there) and there were many restaurants and shops in the area. There is a convenience store right beside the hostel.
We had a very enjoyable time here. My husband and I made use of the lovely area downstairs which turns into a small quiet bar at night. We had the best local Gin here which we ended up ordering on Amazon Japan to our last hotel to take home. Very cool design which I loved! Our teenage girl enjoyed the extra space downstairs for some computer time. A public bath next door which gave us an amazing local experience.
Exactly what we expected from previous APA hotel stays. No luxury, but everything we needed. Very firendly and helfpul staff. Probably not excellent breakfast for Japanese standards, but definitely some interesting dishes for us to explore :)
The room has a nice view of Wakayama castle. I heard no noise during all night. The air conditioner was good for the summer. The bathtub has a good size. I'm tall, so the bathtub size is a important feature to me.
The staff are fantastic
The food is Greek and irritating same thing every morning. Better have normal Japanese or continentals for breakfast
The hotel was over priced Beds not so comfortable
The owner was one of the nicest people I met in Japan, letting me borrow his bike to ride to the beach. The location and facilities are also perfect. Could not recommend more.
The room size was amazing especially for Japan as the rooms are normally very small, the bed was comfortable, the staff were lovely and very accommodating
