Delicious Breakfast Options

I had an amazing breakfast at Hotel Hanaya, with a choice between a traditional Japanese breakfast of rice and fish or a Western option with coffee and eggs. The food was plentiful and set me up perfectly for my day of hiking on the Kumano Kodo.

Comfortable and Clean Rooms

The rooms at Hotel Hanaya were small but impeccably clean. The en suite bathroom was well maintained, and I appreciated the fresh yukatas provided for my comfort. After a long day, returning to a tidy room was a highlight of my stay.

Charming Traditional Atmosphere

Staying in the small yet characterful rooms reminded me of the old-school motels back home. It had a warm, inviting atmosphere, making it a cozy place to rest before my Kumano Kodo trek.

This was a cozy place, reminiscent of an old-school truck stop motel, perfect for a one-night stay before my Kumano Kodo hike. The family-run vibe made me feel welcome, and I appreciated the hot shower and free parking. However, the breakfast wasn't enjoyable, and while the price was fair, it's more suited for a quick stop than a longer vacation.

This hotel is a decent choice for a one-night stay, especially if you're about to embark on the Kumano Kodo hike. The rooms are basic but functional, and the hotel has a charming, old-school vibe reminiscent of truck stop motels. However, the breakfast didn’t impress me, and while the owners are lovely, the setup could improve in some areas. It's good value for a 2-star property, especially considering it comes with private bathrooms and free parking.
