    spacious rooms
    noise disturbance
    entrance confusion

    The rooms are spacious compared to Ginza hotels.

    My stay had a few challenges. I sometimes heard noise from neighboring rooms, which interrupted my sleep. Additionally, although the location next to the JR station is convenient, it might get chaotic during peak hours. It was also a bit tricky to navigate the entrance due to unclear signage.

    Had a great stay for 2 nights. The location next to the JR station is super convenient. The staff were really friendly and professional. I loved the rooftop lounge at night and the curry rice every evening was a fun added bonus. Breakfast was tasty too! 😊

    comfortable mattress
    inconvenient breakfast timing

    great location but breakfast timing needs adjustment

    The staff was exceptionally helpful and welcoming. The room offered an excellent mattress, allowing for a restful night’s sleep. The breakfast spread included fresh, delicious local dishes that added a unique charm to my mornings. I appreciate that it starts later at 7:00 am, but early risers might find it challenging.

    The breakfast timing may not suit guests catching early trains.

    dated bathroom
    noise disruption

    The location next to the JR station provided unbeatable convenience for getting around. The cleanliness and tidiness of my room stood out, with an exceptionally comfortable mattress ensuring a great sleep. Breakfast options were impressive, with fresh dishes like sashimi that truly delighted. However, finding the entrance was challenging due to unclear signage, and the bathroom felt a bit dated. Additionally, some noise from neighboring rooms occasionally disrupted the peace.

    Couples looking for convenience

    Love the location, right beside the JR station! The rooftop offers free drinks, and they have free curry rice in the evening, which I missed because I was out most of the time!

    It wasn’t cheap but still acceptable for what you get.

    attentive staff
    tired bathroom

    The hotel is located directly next to the JR Wakayama station, providing unparalleled convenience for travelers. The staff is very attentive, and we enjoyed the unique touch of complimentary curry rice each night, which added a fun element to our stay. Additionally, the area offers a plethora of dining options, making it easy to explore local cuisine.

    While overall experience was great, the bathroom could use some modernization.

    clean room
    comfy bed
    free curry rice
    poor signage

    Had an awesome stay in a clean room with a super comfy bed. We enjoyed free curry rice every night! Relaxing in the hotel’s lovely open area and trying out the soothing on-site massage service was a perfect way to unwind. The only minor issue was finding the entrance since the signage could’ve been clearer. 😊
