Cat & Dog Friendly Hotels

"I have stayed here before and was looking forward to returning. It's an excellent hotel and the staff are so helpful and friendly.location is right next to station ,rooms clean and the amenities great "

"Ocean view room is very nice. The air conditioning is very weak. Bathroom is not spacious."

"We stayed here 3 nights in April (visiting from NYC). My husband got food poisoning from the hotel the second night (we know this because we shared every meal on our trip except 1). Food in general was not very good… we didn’t realize the ryokan culture is to eat a huge breakfast and dinner at the hotel, so we saw the reviews saying the food isn’t great and didn’t think much of it. The reviews are right! Other thoughts: if you google kii-katsuura one of the main attractions is whale watching, the hotel staff knew nothing about it. We had to do our own research and find a tour (tour co was 20 min away and picked us up from our hotel but just odd hotel staff were unhelpful). Also private outdoor onsen rooms on the first floor do not have a view of the ocean, which was a disappointment, worth it to pay more for a higher floor. But mostly do not recommend this place at all."

"Clean n beautiful "

"Clean room"

"Very clean and comfortable. Affordable and only a short walk from Wakayama train station. Buffet breakfast included. Shopping conveniently connected to the station. Grocery store close by."

"This is our second stay at Hotel Urashima. They've changed ownership so there is a difference in checking in There are stand alone Kiosk to check in. Not so personal. We usually get 1/2 board which is buffet breakfast and buffet dinner. Both breakfast and dinner have several pre dinner cooking devices that you cook your fish or vegetables. Breakfast could be improved. My favorite is the variety of onsens and the cave grottto is my favorite. There is also a shiatsu massage service."

"J’ai tout aimé de cet endroit! Une merveilleuse découverte "

"The room is not big but ultra clean and super functional."
