Around Tenjinzaki × Highly-rated Hotel·Ryokan - 2Page Number

I was planning a trip to Wakayama and looking at various places to stay, and that’s when I found Akariya. When I actually visited, the location was great, and the service and hospitality were excellent! Especially the breakfast—it was absolutely delicious! There was a great variety, including Wakayama’s famous pickled plums. The umeboshi were incredibly tasty! It was an amazing trip and a wonderful place to stay. Thank you very much. I will definitely come again.

Being able to enjoy a variety of alcoholic drinks during dinner was amazing! I was especially happy to have a Nagisa Beer server. The Room was spacious, clean, and comfortable. I also appreciated the free massage chair. There are many stairs to the large public bath, and even more to the panoramic open-air bath. It might be tough for elderly guests. However, the view and the hot spring water are wonderful, so I definitely recommend going.

The walk to the private bath is a bit long, but the scenery is wonderful, and we were able to enjoy an Onsen experience you can only have here. The meals were delicious, and since the course dishes were brought to us, we could relax and enjoy them without having to rush back and forth. The Room was spacious and very clean. The welcome drink was also great. We would love to visit again!

I had stayed here back when it was a Kanpo no Yado, but I didn’t remember much, so this was essentially a new visit for me. It was great. There was an all-you-can-drink option in the lounge, the meals were satisfying, and the hot springs were excellent. The room, including the sink area and toilet, was clean and comfortable. There is no individual air conditioning in each room; the entire building uses a centralized system, which might be an issue for guests who are extremely sensitive to heat or cold. It wasn’t a problem for me.

The view from the open-air bath is amazing. I was able to relax in the free-flowing Onsen. The meals were very delicious and satisfying. Since each dish is served individually, I could enjoy my meal at a leisurely pace. I was curious about something that looked like a red bridge in the distance from the dining area, but it seems to be part of an airport facility. The Room is spacious and comes with a massage chair and an open-air pot bath, which also made me very satisfied. There are many Reviews saying the building is old, but does that cause any inconvenience? It didn’t bother me at all. The staff were very kind and soothing. Please let me stay again.

Once again, I was able to relax and feel refreshed. We used the private family bath; it was spacious and having two washing areas was very helpful. Breakfast also had a wide variety of dishes, so you need to be careful not to overeat. Haha. All the staff were cheerful and treated us kindly. One request: I would prefer two-piece loungewear instead of a yukata. Thank you for your hospitality. I’d love to visit again.

It was a very comfortable and wonderful villa. The food was delicious and plentiful, and the bath was absolutely lovely. I will definitely stay here again.

We stayed here to enjoy swimming at Shirarahama Beach. Before check-in, they let us use the changing room and paid lockers, and we reached Shirarahama Beach in just a few minutes on foot. They also have an air pump for float rings, of course. After swimming, we could rinse off the sand with the outdoor warm-water shower and then head straight to the Onsen, which was great. Both the Room and the Facility were clean, and there were free drinks available throughout the property—we enjoyed them after bathing and while waiting for the elevator. The plum soda was delicious. The buffet had a wide variety of options and everything was tasty. It was also nice that freshly cooked steak and tempura were brought directly to our table. Since our buffet time slot was later, we were able to go see the sunset at Engetsuto Island before dinner. Even after checkout, they offered parking for 1,000 yen, and told us we could use the paid lockers—and even use the baths after 2:00 PM—so it was wonderful to be able to enjoy an Onsen after coming back from the beach before heading home. If you’re going swimming at the beach, this place is absolutely “Musashi”! It was that good. All of the staff were kind, and it made for a truly great trip. Thank you very much.

The road to the Accommodation was narrow, and I got lost at first. The room was clean, and the Facility was satisfactory—sleep comfort was excellent, of course. The free breakfast wasn’t fancy, but it was more than enough and I appreciated being able to use it. What felt most convenient was the guest-only parking lot. Just by having my parking ticket validated for free at the counter, I could come and go by car as I liked, which was great. The Accommodation Fee is reasonable as well, and I think it’s a good Hotel.

This was our third stay, and the free-flowing Onsen with no added water is outstanding. One of the highlights is being able to relax together as a couple in the private bath. Breakfast was delicious both to look at and to eat, and we were completely full. The parking lot is spacious, the location is great, and we love the views from the Room—Shirarahama Beach, sunsets, and more. We’d like to visit again when we can find the time.

The service was courteous and attentive, including a cart pickup—truly comparable to a first-class Hotel. The Room was also thoroughly cleaned and well maintained. The morning scenery around the lodge was magical, and it was a wonderful escape from everyday life. We were very satisfied and look forward to staying again.

I’m glad I chose this hotel for my first trip to Wakayama. For this price, I was very satisfied with both breakfast and dinner. I also enjoyed using the lounge, and the snacks were delicious. I will definitely stay at Mercure again on my next trip. Thank you for the wonderful service.

I have stayed here many times. The meals are delicious with a wide variety, and there are plenty of staff who provide attentive service. The baths, footbath, and lobby are spacious, so you can relax at your leisure. I would like to stay here again.

Thank you for taking such great care of us on our dog’s first trip. Everyone on the staff was truly dog-first—playing with our dog and keeping them company—and we really appreciate it. Since our dog is large, you even upgraded us to a more spacious Room, and we’re so grateful for all your kindness. This is an Accommodation we’d love to visit again when traveling to Wakayama. The bath was also wonderful, with slightly silky natural hot spring water, and my skin felt so smooth the next day! Both our dog and we were completely satisfied. Thank you very much.

As a reward for getting back to work after a long time, the two of us planned a relaxing hot spring trip. With free drinks and table tennis available, we stayed at Shirahama Gyoen and enjoyed ourselves like kids again. In the lobby, the staff explained everything clearly when we had questions, and at dinner they kindly offered, “Shall I take a photo to commemorate your trip?”—so we gladly accepted. It truly became a wonderful memory. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

The room was very clean. In particular, the living room was spacious with no clutter, so my grandchild could run around freely. We would like to stay again next time.

The Facility is old, but it is kept very clean. We stayed in a Room with an open-air bath, and the veranda has a slatted floor, so you don’t have to worry about it being wet after bathing—it’s a very well-designed layout. I enjoyed using the open-air bath many times. Despite the good amenities and the convenient location right in front of Shirarahama Beach, it was reasonably priced. My wife liked it very much as well, so I think we will visit again.

Thank you very much for everything. We stayed for one night with our dog and four adults. The quality was outstanding—absolutely wonderful! Everything, including the Room and the bath, was clean and spotless, which made us very happy. The meals were generous in portion size, and the meat was tender; we had one older guest with us, and they were pleased because it was easy to eat. We had previously stayed at another villa that wasn’t clean and had a difficult time, so we arrived feeling a bit anxious—but this place far exceeded our expectations in terms of cleanliness, and we were truly delighted. There were quite a few insects due to the season, but it was great that various insect-repellent products were provided. The amenities were also very well stocked and wonderful! The pool and the view were amazing as well. It was great to be able to refresh ourselves properly for the first time in a while. We would definitely love to stay again! Next time, we’d like to stay for two nights! Thank you very much.

This was my first stay here, and I was very satisfied. The hot spring temperature was just right for me—comfortably warm enough that I could soak for a long time. Perhaps because it was the weekend after Silver Week, it wasn’t crowded, so I could relax and fully enjoy the hot springs. The view from the room was also great. I’d like to stay here regularly. Thank you again, and I look forward to visiting next time.

We stayed as a family of five. We were very satisfied. The service was excellent. We would like to stay again.
