The location is fantastic. Relaxed atmosphere and views towards the river in front of the building and the green ‚wall‘ of forest just behind. Overall, staff was super friendly and helpful. Many of the Kii World Heritage sites are close and easy to access by car.

Guesthouse Okagesan, hotel in Hongu

Guest house Okagesan is a holiday home located in Hongu, Wakayama. There are 2 Japanese-style rooms, a living room, kitchen, bathroom and toilet in the property.

We stayed in a lot of great places during our trip to Japan, but this was my favorite. The house was beautiful and atmospheric, like something out of a dream. The host was friendly and helpful. We met him at his restaurant down the block and he showed us to the property and recommended a nearby hot spring. The house is located in the Hongu area, a ten or fifteen minute walk from the bus stop that will take you to the shrines and Kumano Kodo.

Ryokan Adumaya, hotel in Hongu

13 miles from Kumanokodo Nakahechi Museum of Art in Hongu, Ryokan Adumaya offers accommodations with access to a hot spring bath, public bath, and open-air bath.

The staff was amazing and only outdone by the dinner we had. The traditional Japanese dinner had a huge array of items to eat and nothing disappointed. The property is very old but it is obvious there was great care taken to every item someone touched. The stay was appropriately priced for the experience and I would very much recommend staying here to anyone traveling in the area.

    Beautiful farming town, with a few scattered shops to ease hunger. Local shop owners were accommodating and kind. City tourism center was closed but the bathroom remained open for guests. We were only passing through to Koguchi but it was a charming stop.

    There's so much beauty and serenity in visiting this area.

    There's so much beauty and serenity in visiting this area. It was relatively quiet during the early winter season but perfect hiking conditions. Food / meal areas were a little sparse and not as exciting but invigorating to experience the pilgramage walk.

    It's the heart of the Kumano Kodo.

    It's the heart of the Kumano Kodo. There are numerous beautiful trails and trains in the area. The mountains and rivers surrounding it are fantastic. I have lived in Japan for 35 years and find this one of the nicer areas to experience beautiful Japanese Fall.

    This is a beautiful part of Japan.

    This is a beautiful part of Japan. We lived in Japan but had never been to this area. Full of walkers. We are not walkers but easily did a full day on the Kuman Kodo. We easily moved around by bus . They are not frequent so pay attention to the timetable Wonderful onsen baths. Lovely walks Koyasan was revelation and we regretted not staying longer We cancelled Taiji when we realised that is where they capture and slaughter dolphins
