Hotel Kirinosato Takahara features outdoor and indoor hot spring baths, only a 2-minute walk from the World Heritage Kumano Kodo Pilgrimage Routes. It offers free Wi-Fi throughout the property, a terrace and rooms with a Japanese interior and Western beds. We loved everything about this place. Incredibly friendly and welcoming vibe.

Ashita no Mori is located in the Kawayu Onsen district of Hongu, 20 km from Kumanokodo Nakahechi Museum of Art, 23 km from Kumanoshi Kiwakozan Museum and 33 km from Kamikura Shrine. There is an on-site restaurant, plus free private parking and free WiFi are available. The property is non-smoking and is set 12 km from Hosshinmon Oji Shrine.

The guest house is located in a geothermal area, with a number of hot springs nearby for guests to relax in. We booked this place in a last minute attempt to hike some of the Kumano Kodo. Booking individual accommodations along the trail turned out to be mission impossible, so we decided to stay here and do day trips. Couldn't be happier with this decision. The hosts here are the loveliest people, the location is great and the inn itself has got a special charm to it. Great (vegetarian) breakfast too. It was easy enough to reach directly from Koyasan (bus stop basically in front of the building) and the day trips we did were hiking back from Koguchi to the inn, and Hongu Taisha Mae - Hosshinmon-oji - Yunomine Onsen and back. Both very easily doable but taking the bus in the morning. Then when you return from the hike you can enjoy the river either hot or cold. Magical place!

Offering tranquil outdoor hot-spring baths with nature views, a Nakai-san personal attendant, karaoke, massages and sumptuous Kaiseki dinners, Yunominesou is a 10-minute walk from Tsuboyu hot spring, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Spectacular service, very clean, excellent Japanese meals with full explanations for foreign guests, very quiet traditional rooms with modern public areas, traditional Onsen (our room had its own toilet but bathing is public in separate male and female baths (this might seem like a big deal to some but we embraced it as rare opportunity to experience a traditional Japanese Ryokan. Stayed here 2 nights to complete the Hongu loop of the Kumano Kodo in one day (traveling to and from the property is possible using reliable and inexpensive public transportation; it will take a day to get there from Tokyo and another day to return). The staff speak excellent English and I can’t say enough about their professionalism and care for their guest’s comfort.

With free private parking, the property is 12 km from Hosshinmon Oji Shrine and 20 km from Kumanokodo Nakahechi Museum of Art. Offering free WiFi throughout the property, the non-smoking holiday home features a hot spring bath. The staff were lovely and very helpful before and during our stay. The house is spacious and scrupulously clean. The beds are very comfortable, and the bath is worth the wait to fill with hot spring water. We enjoyed the free snacks and instant noodles for a no fuss dinner. The Kawayu Onsen bus stop is a few meters away, making transport easy. Soaking in the river hot springs is a short walk away. We would definitely stay here again.
