Absolutely loved my stay here - the location, facilities and onsen was a highlight. Staff very friendly and very helpful. Was sad that it was only overnight as I would have loved to stay longer

The Ryokan is so much better than we expected with a very reasonable price. I was staying for my Kumano Kodo dual pilgrim walk together with a friend, and could simply take bus back and forth to where I paused, very convenient location. The hotel has a long history but still kept very clean. The onsen was fantastic, with large pools both indoor and outdoor; also male and female were switched every day at 10pm so you can experience different setup for an overnight stay. Liked the dinner and breakfast: they changed menu for my two-night stay. Hopefully can have more choices on sake and fruit wine. Above average English skill with all super nice local staff. They’re the reason I would definitely choose to stay again next time after all!

I was so fortunate to choose Guesthouse Yui to spend over a week doing Kumano Kodo and stay for Christmas. I used it as a base to walk the Nakahechi route, catching the bus to/from the trail each day, as required. Staying at Guesthouse Yui made all this much easier and more enjoyable. The owner-operator Sanae-san is such a welcoming and caring host. She made my stay like a home-away-from-home. I had the tatami room nearest the entrance which was spacious, clean and warm. I made use of the common area for writing, emailing, watching TV. I was fortunate to be there during a slower time which made it not so busy, apparently. Regardless, Sanae-san put on a hot pot for 4 of us guests one night which was superb. The shower/bath facilities at the guesthouse are very good but I didn't use these much as there is an excellent community public bath a 5 minute walk away (and only 200 yen!). Mad if you don't use it. Kumano Hongo Taisha bus stop and the "town centre" is a 5 minute walk away. Here the dining options are good but very few. Sanae provides full use of the kitchen with stove, rice cooker, microwave etc if you want to cook. She also provides basic items such as beer, packet rice etc to purchase. I highly recommend Iwatani-san's Ramen restaurant on Monday and Tuesday nights, and Miyazushi the other nights.

We had a wonderful stay at Kawayu Midoriya. It was our pit stop after doing the long Kumano Kodo hike from near chikatsayu to Hongu Taisha. The hotel was clean and well located, the room was clean, modern and comfortable (we stayed in western style room), the staff at reception and service were exceptional. The outdoor onsen is breathtaking. Ask for a room with the view of the river! We would stay here again.

Sanae was an amazing host. We were in quite some trouble getting to the accommodation due to the bus line who didn’t drive at the evening. Sanae arranged a cap for us and comforted us. The kitchen was more than equiped and the possibility to buy a snack or drink for a small price really made our day. We met some amazing people and slept like a baby. The walls are quite thin, but everyone who has to hike has to go to sleep pretty early, so we didn’t experience any trouble. Thank you for the amazing stay and making us feel welcome

After a big day of hiking we were over the moon with the location, the friendly staff as well as the 3 private onsens at this accomodation. The free rice at night and rice pudding in the morning was delicious. The common room was comfortable and had everything we needed (the drip coffee was a bonus!) We were really happy with the private room and the views. We would definitely recommend this as a place to stay.

Authenticity of the accommodation. You can feel the local lifestyle. The host is super friendly and patient. When we meet him in the restaurant, he leads the way and helps us to bring luggages to the accommodation. He explains the facilities clearly to us in English!! Amazing coz we cant meet any locals who can speak good English!! He also prepares some snacks for our enjoyment. Next morning at 05:50, he came in and left us two boxes of rice for our breakfast. He is so warm as a host. I will highly recommend you to stay here if u self drive.

This has been one of our favourite accommodations during our Japan trip. The guesthouse has a well-equipped kitchen and large dinning/social area. Coffee, tea, spices are provided. It is close to the bus-stop, public onsen and the hotsprings. All the areas at the guesthouse are very clean. The property contacted us with the option to order bentobox for dinner. When we arrived at the guesthouse we noted that there are noodles, soup etc sold at the property. With the well-equipped kitchen preparing a meal would be quick and easy.

Truly a lovely place to stay. I wanted to experience the Senninburo in winter, and had a fabulous time...the guesthouse is directly opposite the outdoor winter onsen. The in-house food was great (if not strictly Japanese), the family hosts were wonderful with recommendations for a Kumano Kodo hike on my free day, and the shared toilets and baths fabulous. The two in-house onsen are wonderful and privately used. One of my favorite places on a trip where I spent 20-times as much on more "exclusive" accommodation. Worth the journey.
