HOSTEL KURIYA OSAKA, hotel in Wakayama

Featuring a garden, a terrace as well as a bar, HOSTEL KURIYA OSAKA is located in Izumi-Sano, a 18-minute walk from Icora Mall Izumisano.

I stayed only for one night with a late check in time, but the owner was extremely nice and helpful. The environment is clean and friendly, and the room is very comfortable. You get a lot of value for the price. Highly recommend!

Bigtree Guesthouse, hotel in Wakayama

Bigtree Guest house offers accommodations in Izumi-Sano. This nonsmoking property has a designated smoking area. Some units have a seating area where you can relax.

Very well-appointed! Everything's very organized and got a lot of rules in a way that makes sense. Nice location also to the airport and budget-friendly :) For those of you curious about the towel situation, they dont have anything included but it's just 100 yen to rent one from the front

All hostels in Wakayama
Looking for a hostel?
Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    The hosts were fantastic and made us feel at home. The hostel is close to Wakayama Castle and a short bus ride to to both train stations.

    The place was clean, quiet and well-located. The hosts did a good job when it comes to decoration and everything was labeled in English, it was really helpful. Hiroko and Kazu are very thoughtful, a little welcoming note was placed next to the door and she even offered me a ride to go back to the station for me to avoid having to carry my backpack on the way. Definitely recommend this cute hidden hostel.

    This is a clean, comfortable, inexpensive hotel with good rooms and a great location just next to the station. A city bus will take you to any attraction such as the castle, the park or the Marina City. Breakfast is reasonable.

    Hiroko was a hero to us as our flight was delayed 2 hours and we only reached Wakayama in the midnight. She offered us the ride to the hostel and welcome us with her warm heart and explained everything to us. The room is really tidy and she has prepared the futon for us! I really like it! Toilets are very clean! Very quiet neighborhood! Will definitely recommend others to stay!
