The place is very nice, and the hotel offers a ride to the bus stop. In this area of Japan and around Hongu, bus is the main way for you to reach different trails. Food is fantastic. Stuff are very helpful and communicate well.

The host is very responsive, replying messages promptly and she speaks very good English so we have zero issues for checking-in ! Alya the host completed the dual pilgrimage and I guess from there she understand the need of travellers. We love the place, feel like home after our long hours of hiking journey. The place is very very clean, bonus is they provide the laundry & drying machines, and provided some snacks for us to eat those are very sweet gestures.

The private, unobstructed view of the Torii gate itself is worth booking this place for. But on top of that, it’s a spacious, beautiful traditional Japanese house. Easily the most beautiful stay of the trip. There’s a great ramen place and konbini (convenience) store just a few mins walk down the road. The house is by a busy road, however the traffic mostly stops at night, you will sleep to the sounds of frogs (:

Great hospitality and price! Near for Hongu shrine and bus service. They have "Kumano spirit" to offer a safe welcoming place for Kumano visitors. I really appreciate the staff taking time to share talking with me. This is a guesthouse so you need to prepare and bring your own night ware and food. Some snack food for purchase, but there are not much restaurants open at night, or store. You choose guesthouses with the limited condition.

    part of the kumano kodo must do destination !

    part of the kumano kodo must do destination ! it is a wonderful location with the shrine, a zen building of the heritage center and the torii gate, which also act as a bus stop too. The bus system is inadequate for so many visitors. I understand it is in a rural part of the Japanese town, but i am sure the bus company can regulate and insert a couple more bus departures during peak time. Surely they would have collected a historical data of peak passengers timing by now since this kumano kodo has been around for so long. So that it can provide a better service for the hikers

    Hongu, Watarase, Kawayu & the surrounding area is hands down one of THE almighty best in Japan — and Japan has lots of amazing places. it's very easy to spend 3 days or more based out of this area & then driving around to amazing waterfalls, ravines, hot springs, cultural spots, mountain vistas, abandoned elementary school, etc. etc. unbeaten japan can take you there so do not hesitate to reach out.

    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.
